The difference for me between giving up Danny Green and Joe Harris was we gave up on Green when we had an all time horrible roster. Looking at that roster we should have prioritized Green over at least half the roster. Some how Grant must have thought the league was trending towards all PFs with how many he brought in.
We should have kept Harris over McRae and Sasha Kaun for sure. I don't think they give up on him if he didn't break his leg.
But Green was actually bad. He was even cut by the Spurs. I mean, he was about to be out of the league. I can't really fault the Cavs that much for him.
Harris was a young player seeing inconsistent playing time. We punted on him. Which was dumb.
Why give up on a young player? I don't care what kind of team you have. Another reason I couldn't stand Griffin.
He had no vision for what we should be going forward. Only saw now, which again, is a large reason we're in the position we are in, thanks to him.
He was a terrible GM. I don't care what anyone says. When you have a GM that only builds for the short-term, and has no consideration or plan for the long-term. That GM sucks.
Imagine what we could have been if he prioritized drafting a little better and developing young players to go along with LeBron?
Because you can't just live on trades and quick fix band aids. Especially when you're capped out and have very little ways to get better.
And the fact they gave up Joe over McRae is more disturbing. McRae was garbage.
