It’s called hedging your bet. Better odds of one of them working out. Cavs had no reason to draft Garland after just drafting Sexton
Again, ignoring the reality. There was not the 30mpg rookie Garland got with rebuilding/tanking Cleveland on a Pels team that had Holiday, Ball, Reddick and was openly gunning for a playoff spot.
If you want to claim you wanted Garland back in 2019, congrats. You're a genius.
They made other bets that didn't work out they way they wanted. Griffin whiffed on them. It sucks for us that he bet wrong and Garland has blossomed.
Acting like passing on him at the time was the dumbest decision ever made is all hindsight. And if we're playing the hindsight game, there is no guarantee that Garland develops into the player he is now in NO.

And if you want to argue the Pels should have opted for a slower rebuild around Zion, Ingram, Garland, great.
That's a reasonable choice they could have made, which had its own risks and rewards
The end of the day, Zion being out is the single biggest problem the team has. When he plays, they're .500. He is the fulcrum around which all of this turns. Until he is healthy, this is all killing time and dick measuring
