I'm bored so I went ahead and did a quick look. I tried to be reasonable with it. I tried to keep the picks in the same ballpark. I didn't go with Antetokounmpo who was selected 15th when the Cavs had the #1 overall pick. All of these guys were within 4 picks of the Cavs selection. So here it goes
1984: Tim McCormick 4 picks later John Stockton
1985: Charles Oakley 4 picks later: Karl Malone
1989: John Morton 1 pick later: Vlade Divac
1996: Vitaly Potapenko 1 pick later: Kobe Bryant
1999: Andre Miller 1 pick later: Shawn Marion
2001: DeSagana Diop 2 picks later: Joe Johnson
2002: Dajuan Wagner 3 picks later: Amare Stoudemire
2012: Dion Waters (AAAAAYYYYYYEEEE) 2 picks later Damian Lillard
2013: Anthony Bennett 1 pick later: Victor Oladipo
Line up of
C: Amare Stoudemire
PF: Karl Malone
SF: Shawn Marion
SG: Kobe Bryant
PG: John Stockton
Key Reserves: Damian Lillard, Victor Oladipo, Joe Johnson and Vlade Divac
To be honest, Oakley and Miller are good picks.
The rest are indefensible.
