Andy and Jeff Say the Cavs Are Too Backcourt Heavy to Just Run It Back
from Baskin & Phelps
Andy and Jeff Phelps run through Yahoo's draft night grades, noting San Antonio's pick at 20 was the first to break the streak of A-grade picks at the top, while the Cavs' traded selection landed Sacramento an A-plus. They flag Cleveland native Keyshawn Hall as a name to watch in the second round and dig into local product Darren Peterson going second overall to Utah, calling the comparisons to LeBron inevitable for any standout Ohio prospect. They argue the Cavs are too backcourt-dominant in a league increasingly defined by long wings, but with no real draft capital and money locked into James Harden, there's no obvious way to fix it. Jeff closes by warning Cavs fans not to get lulled into complacency just because last night's quiet draft felt uneventful.
