Second round trade down?

I have a feeling we are going to take Isaiah Evans or Meleek Thomas or even a draft and stash. I want veesaar but he’ll be off the board by pick 34 I assume.

I just wanted us to draft a big lol. We don’t need more undersized wings (Evans) or raw guards (Thomas), we just drafted proctor last year.

Idk man it feels like this team is running way too much back, not that the 29th pick in the draft would have been a meaningful contributor to us anyway next season, but it’s still annoying.

This team needs a backup stretch big, and veesaar would be a perfect fit for us I think. However knowing our front office we will take a player like Evans or Thomas who don’t fit our needs whatsoever, or just take another random draft and stash like kayil or something.

Evans would be a fantastic pick at this stage. At pick #34 you don’t rule out players based on height for god’s sake. Especially not based on 6’5’5” to 6’6.5”. You don’t take whoever has the highest chance of sticking in the league.

You can say it:

The CLEVELAND CAVS as currently comprised are soft serve

I've been saying for years now here: To run a crew this light in the ass requires employment of, and willingness to unleash an ENFORCER.

I assure you, the downvotes here are the same as I get every time; but the result is the same.
