There’s a reason a lot of these teams with young big men want garland and it’s his paint passing

The Garland Mitchell backcourt has some issues but in this draft I wouldn't have traded Garland away for the 4th and 8th picks. What player would they get that is better than current DG? If it was one of the next 2 drafts then maybe.

Spurs would be a 5-7 seed in 2 years if Cavs made this move...... He and Mobley's injury reduced his "Lob" assist total(weak offensive dependability)..... Garland's an All Star reserve in SA ..... time for the coaching to figure it out

Taking garland out the paint erases such a strong part of his game though. He’s one of best paint passers and lob passers in the league when he’s playing well
@camdenhaymon60463 ай бұрын
I think the offense may be the bigger issue. Also add a big sized wing.

No….. when you look at whenever we play our best during season it’s when it only Dg or Donavan on court. On offense we need to run half court through Donavan and Mobley. But the biggest issue is defensively it’s just hard as hell when both guards are fun size! When we start okoro it’s better because offensively it’s nothing forced while completely upgrading on defense. Honestly if we have to go two small guards we would’ve been better off with a tyus Jones type because dg getting max money for his role aint it. With tyus no pressure just play right way l…. But regardless it’s Mobley time !!!! In the half court especially if it’s nothing early in the offense Mobley must touch the ball. He is a mismatch almost every night while also being one of our top passers. But with new coach maybe we make it work but between Sam Merril and Porter I think we would’ve been good to trade him

@Yahman672 the Cavs had the best defense in the NBA in the regular season AND when they got shit stomped but New York and that was WITH the 2 small guards playing. Starting lineup played 28 total games together this year

DG and DM are really both pg and DG is lazy and sucks without the ball, this is just the truth. They definitely will regret not making a trade. Btw look at DG’s body, he hasn’t put in the work to get stronger. He looks like a 15yr old boy
@jumpersforjesus3 ай бұрын
Peak DG is nowhere near Mitchell and the pair just does not work, not trading for the 4th & 8th pick if those reports are true is a huge mistake just for not getting off the contract alone. It seems the argument for not trading him is that you hope he can become a 3 & D wing basically at his size and contract, which is completely insane reasoning.

I know it would be difficult to pull off but if DG. Would come off The bench, It would solve so many problems for the Cavs. I think If they do this, they go to the finals.

They still have failed to fill the missing void at stretch 4 legit 3 spot. They are dumb and even if they did convince a max player to come off the bench ( never gonna happen ) , it doesn't solve that his offense would be missed despite the continual beat downs that duo will receive being exposed on switches

Trading DG this summer when he is coming off a subpar season is an idiot move. Value will increase with decent play before trade deadline, then trade if advantageous. I'd love to get that fool wanting to trade DG this summer into a poker game🤑🤑🤑

Can't think about it just one way. He said what if garland comes back worst next year?? I would ask what if garland blows up after we traded him?? Now we got less in return for him. Is so stupid to make a trade just to make a trade. If you really believe that a 22 yr old that already has been an all-star lost it then you don't know basketball. This is not 2k there's so much more involved when it comes with bball players especially garland last year. The obvious thing to do is let it play out til February and see what the new coach can do. At worst I expect his stock to go up by February and then we can trade him. He is not a bad player.

They took themselves out of the market for him exiting, when they refused to believe Mitchell was staying before he inked it. Now they are stuck with the same offensive duo, that will dazzle all season and choke in the first round.

Garland Mitchell pairing is fine for winning in the regular season and will fail in the playoffs. Mitchell is 10x the player DG is and played his best running the point.

One key factor being missed here is without Okoro covering these two smaller guards defensively, the regular season won't be as easy for them. Maybe they can find it somewhere else, but unless Ice signs the QO they are killing themself only offerring him enough to stay under the tax penalty. Especially after having to max Mobley. That org seems very much over a barrel by their core players agents now.

garland flat out sucks, he kills the cavs chances and future.. i know people who know garland personally and he is just a boy mentally , .. no matter how good on offense he is it wont make up for how bad he is on D, he kills our team defense by making others cover his ghost play... core 4 is just so stupid, everytime i hear core 4 i laugh my ass off ... garland doesnt mesh with sexton or mitchell, he is the problem and his contract just flat our kills the cavs
