Its funny, I've seen almost every KU game the last few years, and last year, Malone was the one name I couldn't get out of my head whenever I saw Robinson. They're essentially the same size (Malone listed at 6-9, 250; T-Rob measured in at 6-8.75, 244). Now, I may not have gotten to see Malone when he was really, truly in his prime, but I do remember Malone vividly from his days playing against Jordan in the finals (and after that).
He didn't have that picture perfect post game, but he was great at using his strength to get in excellent position to score without having to make McHale-type moves. Watching Robinson this year, what stood out was his ability to do the exact same thing. And to piggy back off of what narbar said, the Cavs have Kyrie. He's a better scorer than Stockton, but him and T-Rob running the PnR could have been truly deadly.
In watching Waiters, I can't help but think the Cavs just took Marcus Thornton. A good player, but one much better suited for the 6th man role. I just find it hard to believe the Cavs truly had Waiters ahead of T-Rob on their draft board, and (as I said in the other thread) if they did, it really doesn't make me feel much better.
I hope Waiters works out, but my gut feeling is the team made a mistake. I'm willing to change my opinion though, and of course I will be rooting for this to work out.
