This guy didn't even start. Wow, the Cavs really didn't think this draft was as strong as folks were hyping it up to be.

I liked this guy, but not for the Cavs man. Terrible fit. The Cavs want to get owned by the Heat for the next couple of years.

Honestly I would be glad if he's as good as Stuckey. I've seen a lot of Ben Gordon comparisons made. This just seems like a terrible pick to me. All things considered, Drummond, Robinson, or even Barnes would have been better picks.

I wouldnt have liked taking Durmmond, but I would have at least understood taking that risk. This, man, I am almost speechless. I guess I have to get behind the guy, its not his fault Grant thinks he is smarter than everyone else.

Its really not.
We just passed on the concensus pick who happens to be his best friend for a combo guard who if he pans out will be completely redundent with Kyrie. This is the right pick if there is a deal in place to move Kyrie.

lol
because a) this is overstated
and b) who **** cares about friendships
oh well. thus far this draft has pretty much been the worst case scenario. grant was put in a tough spot with no great options at #4 but he managed to make me lose even more faith in him.
it seems like he thinks he knows more than everyone else and is some kind of genius for reaching to take guys others think have no business going that early.

Wow....so we drafted an energy player and a bench player back to back years at #4. Same guy who took Marvin Williams right?

I think it was meant more along the lines of the team fu*king up the rebuild so Kyrie might as well start looking for his next team and contract.

Don't compare the two, Marvin Williams had good size for the position.
In defense of the Cavaliers we now have the best combo guard this team has seen since Delonte West.

grant was only an assistant gm in atlanta so nobody really knows how much involvement he had in that selection
but ya i am not at all confident in his ability to actually build a winning team, much less a contender.
