I definitely think Brogdon + Middleton helps Cleveland more this upcoming year than Isaiah, Crowder, and Zizic.

I get the concern about a 2nd creator, but Love, Middleton, and Brogdon are all capable creators. Maybe not the types that you can just hand the ball for long stretches and tell them to go get buckets, but between the three of them, they could definitely create scoring chances. Brogdon and Middleton are both very good in the pick and roll, both can post up, both can spot up, Middleton can run off screens. And Love can be a go-to guy from the high post/a pick and pop partner/spot-up guy while Thompson is the screener.

As you said though, the Nets pick is what did it for Boston's offer. If Cleveland took the Milwaukee package (if we believe it was offered...other reports shot it down but that could easily be damage control) and LeBron left the following year, the Cavs would have no go-to guy and would just be a middling team in the East for awhile unless they blew it up then.

With the Brooklyn pick, the Cavs can potentially get a new go-to guy to lead them into the future.
