Re: Draft
Windy's info suggested that TRob would've been a serious possibility if it weren't for TT. I really doubt that with all the talk about the drafting process and investing hundreds of thousands of dollars into scouting that they didn't put some thought into Robinson. If he was really much better than Waiters they'd probably have taken him regardless of position ala Davis.

Re: Draft
Both of these things scare me.
I'm willing to admit I could be wrong, but I see no reason to believe Waiters is a better prospect than Robinson.

Re: Draft
Even if he's not clearly the better prospect, Waiters brings high skill level and explosive athleticism to a position of need. It's easy to understand the thought process there. And while I believe that Trob will be a beast, I don't think Cavs fans will regret having Waiters down the line.
In terms of being scared, I'd be thrilled if we pulled off a draft similar to this one next year.

My last thought. The staff has seen TT improve. If he didn't improve they would have taken TRob. Scott said he was the hardest worker and his shot has improved.
They probably thought a HUGE upgrade at SG is better than a slight upgrade at the PF position.

That maybe true but i can't help but remember the wise words my grandfather told me 'you can't polish a turd'.
So you're saying TT is a turd? Or his shot is a turd? Frankly - I don't care if he shoots one handed all the time - as long as it goes in consistently.
