cmon...?
The bolded is a lie, you just made that up. I never said "they should punt on the draft forever," what the fuck kind of shit is that?
I wrote a long post detailing exactly why I think the Cavs can neither scout nor develop. It was a follow-up to another post I wrote a few months back.
Nothing, because that isn't what I said, it's what you're claiming you thought I said.
Umm.. I already told you I'm not saying that at all, this is the second time I'm telling you that isn't what I said, and the second time I'm asking you why are you putting words in my mouth?
The Cavs have a pretty poor draft / development record. I also think we should have went with a trade over drafting at #24 considering we're in win-now mode and that we have a poor draft / development record.
You read into that that I am discounting the value of the draft "forever," and that the players we selected are "garbage."
I suggest you step back and re-read my post, specifically my post to you where I said I'm not down on Christmas.
What you're saying here is frankly ridiculous.
This is nonsense. Again, I'm not saying we had to move the pick with Haywood, but we certainly could have made better use of it than a Euro-stash and the two players we selected. Even if that meant trading it for a future first rounder.
You are totally missing the conditionals in my argument; why I don't know.
I don't know what you're talking about, and this has nothing to do with anything I've said.
I'm simply looking at what they've done, and I see a team not likely to use Haywood right away, but to wait until the middle of the season. Ben suggested the Cavs will likely flip Haywood into a TPE, I'm starting to see that myself.
Guy will never play in a Cavs uniform. Book it. And again, dunno why you keep mentioning Blatt; I doubt he had anything to do with this draft.
It's the one thing I hate about this board when drafts or trades happen... Everyone gets butthurt when criticisms are made.
