If you watched the game and think Delladova was not better than Quinn or "did not seperate" himself from Quinn, then I dont trust your analysis on players in-game.
There was no comparison between the two.
The real question is, why in the hell did Higgins warrant such a long look as backup PG and why in the hell did Quinn and Higgins get more minutes than Delladova.
I have to believe the Cavs already have a pretty good idea about Delladova or what they intend to do with him, and are trying to get him to camp with less interest from other teams or a lucrative offer from overseas.
Get out of my head. :chuckles: I was thinking the same thing too. For my sanity I just imagined that the Cavs already knew what they had in Delladova and just gave Higgins some time to maybe show something out there. Still Delladova in sparse and limited minutes showed good defensive instincts and energy (he fights) - not much in the playmaking department because as mentioned, he played in short bursts and at one point he played a bit of SG with Higgins on point.
As to my early observations with Zeller, he started well but faded in the 2nd half. I hope he keeps working, he'd be a nice backup big.
Waiters, I believe still didn't show what he can do consistently. I'm not bashing him but he kinda played out of control specially in the early going. He was very aggressive in getting involved which is good but also caused him to pick up those early fouls. He was finally getting the foul calls (he didn't get last season) from the refs and I hope it translates when the season goes underway.
I think once Dion gets comfortable (which I know he will) we'd see him flourish.
