Bennett could be the key to this whole thing. If he can get his range back from college.....
That's all confidence. He don't even need the NBA 3. Just knock down that 18-20 footer and spread the floor. I have full confidence Wiggins will ball out...
Yea Bennett has been beasting in summer league, if i'm Minny, i'm doing that trade for Waiters and Bennett plus a couple 1st rounders. That will beat anything else anyone has to offer, rather than losing him after the season.
Man...I'm playing NBA 2k14 with the new Ultimate Base Roster and loving the lineup. I can't wait to see this shit in real life. Wiggins cutting to the hoop. Waiters and Irving knocking down the open 3s.
I just had to run some breaks with Irving, Wiggins, and Lebron. Fuck waiting until basketball season.....
I hope Cavs pulled that shit off the table.
Rockets should have picked him up. They need a 4 that can spread the D out to the 3 with Howard. Maybe they can pick up Charlie Villanueva on the cheap.
I'm watching the Jalen Rose podcast right now. He said earlier that Kyire had the 2nd percentage in 3's as Michael Carter Williams on spot up jump shots. Kyrie is gonna have to become a better shooter with the offense running thought LeBron now.

Fuck all that take care of me when I retire shit! Zo wasn't commanding this type of bread when he bounced either. So what if a player doesn't want to work in basketball when he's done!? So accorfing to yalls logic the best thing to do is to for the rest of your life be beholding and connected to the team owner huh!? Dependent slave mentality, fuck that get your money now and make your own choices later! For every dollar Wade sacrifices for Mickey that CAC is making 10! FOH with that bullshit!
ya'll making a big deal out of nothing. Maybe he took less so they could get other players. That few millions is a lot to s average person I'm pretty sure wade knows what he is doing. You're at the end of your career and still making millions how is th at losing?

Kyrie and Dion are floating close to 40 percent already.... Only gets better with Lebron. Unlike the last version of the Cavs, Kyrie and Dion are outside shooters who can create on their own.
This has the potential to be ugly.....

yeah he needs to hit tha spot up 3 at a high rate so bron can own the paint.
lmfao @ teams making moves i been saying to do for fucking years
YEARS
bulls wouldn't trade deng for nothing..even when his value was high
damn near killed him THEN traded him.
they wouldn't amnesty boozer YEARS ago when gibson passed him in talent now they wanna go ahead and do it lol.
okc hanging on to perkins when fucking adams is already a better player and they just drafted another 7 foot cornfed white boy to back him up
and they won't get rid of him
meanwhile its gonna look like his slow ass is doing suicide drills whenever he in the game cause by the time he make it to 1 end the ball gone be going back the other way

Everyone is going to walk.. they gearing up to give Ibaka the max and everyone else gonna be out of there.. and then expect people to pay top dollar to go to the games
I wonder how before OKC completely implodes...
2016
contracts up then they will have squandered the best talent in franchise history fucking with brooks
This attitude is why the real money people in this world have the real money and the others have some then lose it.
When presented with the opportunity to keep his championship squad together by paying the repeater tax, the Heat's owner said, fuck that. Give me my money.
But now Wade is supposed to just throw millions back to the team?
Millionaires giving money back to help the Billionaires pockets. If that's not losing, I don't know what is. It's not about "oh at least I'm making some money..." If your boss came to you and asked you to take a 20% pay cut for the good of the company, but he wasn't, what would you say?
So Melo got a no trade clause in exchange for that saving a million and some change that would only get them a vet minimum deal.
Not sure about that one Phil
Kyrie isn't used to playing off the ball. He's always been ball dominant. It will take some time getting used to it.
Dude isn't Rondo with the jumper. He's young and will improve.
Not sure why Chicago held on to that overpaid non defense playing jump shooter.
His contract stopped them from making moves for years and he was never a tradeable asset, because everyone recognized he was an overpaid scrub but them.
I'm tired of their front office getting credit.
Since getting Harden they haven't done shit.
They traded Harden for Kevin Martin who only stayed with the team for a year. Lamb who they don't play. McGary who will be a grunt work McAdams player when they need scoring. The rest of the draft picks might never benefit KD or Russ.
Perkins finally comes off the books, but why they didn't use their amnesty to actually get a player who could help them after getting rid of Harden is totally mind boggling to me.
Everyone talks about getting players to play beside Lebron, Melo, blah blah...how can you not get another player who can consistently put up 15. Caron would have been nice four years ago, and they're not even keeping him. You have two of the biggest assets in the league and you can't put a decent squad around them? Where's your knock down shooter that KD or Westbrook can kick out too and spread the floor...you had Fisher and Thabo? They needed a Mike Miller or James Jones. Why not Rashard Lewis? Why do you have a bunch of bigs who can't score or create their own shot, Collison, Perkins, McAdams, McGary? Where's your guy beyond Jackson you can bring in for scoring? People talk about San Antonio, look at their roster versus OKC. Like I say OKC gets you 55-60 a night just from Russ and KD...they have problems getting that other 40 amongst ten players.

You Dudes are missing the whole point of my argument, and the points you made to try to contradict my post actually validate it so it is what it is. We just have to agree to disagree Bruh... :
It's really sad how dense people are dude. Really is. Not realizing just how much these players, Dirk, Wade, actually all of the, are being pimped! Even these 'Max' deals are smoke screens because the limits were set by the owners to assure they would still make a boatload of money off of these players. Fools talking about taking less for the sake of the team?!
These owners have been prostituting these players for years, how the hell does Dirk make less than Parsons. How the hell does Wade make less than Bosh, who been there 4 years and Wade basically built the Heat to what they are now!? They can put a cap on what a player makes, but no cap on how much the owners can make off the backs of those players.
CACs sitting there ribbing D Wades head when he signed that shit like 'that's my good little boy, keep putting money in my pocket' and the CAC controlled media slants it to him being such a good guy taking a sacrifice for the 'team' and these Dudes have drank Kool Aid from the same pitcher, talking that dumb shit....
Slave mentality bro...
Gasol and pooh contracts end in 2017
We gonna be players in 2017 and 2018 cap space

Slave mentality bro...
To walk away with $200,000 a game for only 32 to 36 minutes worth of work is not being pimped or slave mentality.
Players take pay cuts because they are not slaves to money. Money does not control their actions. Man that it a beautiful space to be in.
A broke person will never understand this.
Lance to Charlotte is Jordans best move since the Big Al signing. They needed a 2 guard BADLY.
The Cavs better pull all offers off the table. Trading Bennett to minny would be such a culture shock I think he'd be worst than his first year in Cleveland. He's playing well now cause he knows he's under the radar. Not much pressure on him, plus he's lost about 10-15 lbs. if this team doesn't win now I wouldn't be surprised but they are set up to be a dynasty.
