How did Koby push the "wrong button" with Sexton and Garland? They were the best players available at that their respective draft slot.
A lot of you repeat the same things thinking internet fandom = facts
When you constantly sit in last place, there's buttons standing out. I didn't get into full detail, but I can add a few more:
The decision of drafting KPJr and adding him to a culture-less team. The fallout to that was a waste of an asset.
The handling of Drummond. Even the weird idea of landing Drummond. Total desperation. But not getting a piece for him had fans losing faith in Koby.
Jarrett Allen falling in his lap was a godsend, and totally deserving to a young GM who's team was failing at developing any kind of continuity.
Not adding a wing in the off-season still shows its ugly head.
Mobley is the guy that makes this all work. Lost Sexton. Still good. Lose Rubio, still good.
Without Mobley, both JBB and Koby aren't seeing these nice extensions. Dan Gilbert, and fans are extremely satisfied with the Cavs direction and that's because Koby went through a few trials and tribulations, but now it's leveling out.
And back to Sexton, he wasn't the best selection at the 8th slot. Unfortunately SGA wanted no part of Cleveland. Michael Porter Jr got paid before Sexton because why? He's a better talent but a huge risk, and thankfully dodged.
Going forward, the button of starting Garland and Sexton will be a huge mistake, and that's on Koby to figure out.
