I don't question the wisdom of adding Jerome, it just didn't work out (to say the least). Season ending injury that we still don't know what happened.The Jerome signing didn't help at all..another injured 6'5 SG..thats not what they need.
I'll address Altman more in the coming months but he's too enamored with SG's.
If and I say if Mitchell stays ,there needs to be a bigger SG next to him who can also create his own shot. And I'm talking about any of the SG's already on the roster.
That said I'm tired of the SG's the Cavs and no real SF..That has to be a priority either in FA or a trade. Hate to say it, but they must draft one . The FO has been reluctant to do it,and unless someone can correct my memory they haven't drafted a legid taller SF since ...since...????
but I agree, the Cavs need to move on from these 6'5-6'6" dudes and get some 6'7" and up dudes. Already have one in Emoni, which is a good sign.
I want them to snag KJ Martin on the cheap. I want them to draft one of Jalen Bridges, Tyler Smith, or Tristan Da Silva.
Hell, I would EVEN be down for a LeVert/Miles Bridges swap.
the Cavs haven't had a SF sized player starting or in rotation worth a crap since LeBron left.
Even with his problems I still prefer Strus to Cedi. But Strus would be best served in LeVert's current role with CPJ running point IMO. Retain Jerome for redundancy because he doesn't have that "Shang Tsung" property LeVert does.
It's time.
The competition is not just Boston, NY, Philly.... but it IS Orlando and teams like that who can just size you out of competing.
The attitude is there for the core guys. It's time to do like New York and get the right ones to glue it all together.
