the Lakers had that pick before they dealt it for Davis.....

What do you think in retrospect? Yes or no?

Davis for Ingram, Ball, pick that became Garland, Hart, multiple additional unprotected first rounders and pick swaps.
Even worse is Griff then had that pick and traded out of it.

Yeah, not the pick I was talking about or the player I ever said they should have acquired.
I mean, you seem to love rumors and that was the one most mentioned.

what pick are you talking about?

Ok, maybe I did say that.

Forgot that conversation.

And yet still?

Garland is awesome. Wake me up when he is the best player on a championship team.

You know I am a firm believer in the process style rebuilds for markets like Cleveland. They might have gotten lucky and gotten their best player 3 years after their first high pick.

Almost never happens that the early picks hit and the later pick becomes the superstar.

That entire discussion was also built around the idea that Cleveland needed to draft a superstar.

Which is true.
OK...got lucky to get Mobley. But unlucky the Brooklyn pick most thought would be top 3 fell to 8th (and still did fine with sexton). also got unlucky instead of a top 2 pick to take Edwards or Ball we fell to 5th. Don't hate Okoro based on where we picked but he's not Edwards/Ball.

wrong.

you said that what the Cavs were building was just mediocre- so they should deal Garland and Sexton for picks- because picks at least had a chance on becoming high level players- when it was clear to you Sexton and Garland were not that.

Id be more than happy to find it for you if you insist on it.
Please.

Lance never said that, you're blowing hot air.....as usual.

Mavs shot 1-21 from 3 in the 1st half. It was so bad I just started laughing. Knicks are throttling them. Can’t make it up.
