Cavs pass. Booker would be a decent addition, but not at the expense of Thompson. As for Randle, outside of being a solid passer his game is nothing like Draymonds. He doesn't handle the ball well, he can't shoot the three, he's bad defender and he's not where near as athletic.

The Cavs need another big that can guard centers. Thompson does that far better than either of these two and his athleticism and rebounding help the Cavs on offense more than Randle's post ability. Tristan can be effective on offense without getting designed touches. I don't think Randle can.

Lol. I don think you watch Randle. He's been good at defense this year. Vastly improved, and he has handles. His jumper has improved but still getting there. And he's pretty damn athletic.

TheKing in a small sample size, he has the 27th best real defensive plus minus this year at pf. So far he's a mediocre defender. He doesn't handle the ball or pass at any where near Green's level. He may be able to hit mid range shots ( the worse shot in basketball), but he is shooting under 30 percent on 3s and he's a mediocre athlete at best. If he's really as good as you're trying to make him out to be why is he only playing 20 minutes a game on a bad team that appears to have plans of letting him walk?
