At least LeBron got to be near his family
Get these in while you can...
Lebron's D looked Kobe-esque from what I watched. Lol at going all in on that steal and just walking back when he didn't get it.
Dude must not give a anymore. No wonder he wanted Love over Wiggins. He needs someone else to carry the load during the regular season so he doesn't have to do
Love is a monster, tbh..
As many of us said during the off-season, they should have traded Irving while his stock was high..
Yea the cavs need to off Irving and waiters for a legit sg. And a pass first type point guard who can knock down a open 3. They look lost out there almost like they are just running iso at a practice. Irving is just keeping the ball out of lebrons and loves hands tbh
irving 3 for 17
that irving clown is nothing but ebola
we saw that last year in the ASG, and the wc with the ballhogging to win individual awards over team accomplishments....
fck thinks his the 2nd coming of enrique
Keeping Wiggins and trading Irving seemed like a no-brainer, tbh, but I guess trading Irving would have looked bad and set a bad tone for the team..
Also, LeCoon has already shown that he's a pretty bad GM(as are most great players..being genetically gifted doesn't make you a legit evaluator of talent, as we've seen with the majority of great players turned management), and never considered Wiggins as part of the team..
Irving for Rondo? Would Rondo play with LeBron?
Dragic looks lost in Phx. He'd look pretty good in Cleveland tbh.
^^They need to trade Irving for role players IMO, not PGs, especially with Lebron needing to dominate the ball..
They desperately need defensive pieces, as many of us have been saying for months..signing a terrible, finished Shawn Marion isn't the answer
Lebron is going to continue coasting on defense, and Love obviously isn't a defensive anchor..if they had a Danny Green/Trevor Ariza + a spot-up shooting PG, they would be set, but those players aren't easy to find..
not really a lot of 3 and D point guards though...
I don't think it has to be a 3&D PG, just a PG that can make spot-up jump shots, like a Jose Calderon IMO..
Ironically, I think Chalmers would be perfect for the current Cavs(assuming he has recovered from last year's Hibbert-like meltdown)
trading irving for role players, when ur not sure whether lebron is staying after 2 years? thats disaster, and we dont want to see cavs in the lottery again^^They need to trade Irving for role players IMO, not PGs, especially with Lebron needing to dominate the ball..

They would never do it, I'm just saying that's what I would do..
I'd be shocked if Irving is traded, but I expect Waiters to be out before the end of December..
yeah that was a really underrated aspect of why the series was as easy at it wasI don't think it has to be a 3&D PG, just a PG that can make spot-up jump shots, like a Jose Calderon IMO..

George Hill would be perfect for that team, too, but you can't make a trade with Indiana, they don't have any other pieces that are worth discussing(Hibbert and Lebron would be a horrible fit, and David West is redundant on the Cavs)..
You look at how that heat team was built and it should be the blueprint for the cavs, it really was the perfect lebron team. Like the magic did with Dwight that year they made the finals. It's not that hard to build they have the trade assets to make it happen
Cavs looked bad last night. Looks like Lebron wants to see Kyrie and Dion fall on their face because he really left Kyrie out there. Dion may not last in CLE unless his at ude changes. Kyrie needs to stop playing 30 win a year type ball. It turned into Kyrie and Dion chucking up shots and Lebron didn't seem to care enough to stop it. Hopefully it's a learning experience.
Love looks fine except for some defensive lapses.
It took the 2011 Heat around 2 weeks to rip apart the rest of the league. I'll give the Cavs 3 weeks.
Speaking of Kobe: Irving and Waiters shot a combined 6 of 28...
I'm sure they will be fine but I don't understand why everything is coming below the rim for LeBron. He really looks like he is lacking his usual explosiveness and he looks to have gotten slower despite the weight loss. He keeps driving baseline hard but being unable to beat his defender or rise towards the hoop and is shooting weak jumpshots fading across the baseline. is weird.
I think at least one of their big three has to sacrifice a bit, settling for a smaller role so the three of them will be well accommodated. Ray Allen transformed into a spot-up shooter playing mostly without the ball in Boston, and you saw Bosh doing something similar after moving to Miami.
