The Cavs is in the middle of a rebuild, where you can get assets and Sexton is a more efficient scorer than Clarkson. It didn't help that the stupid ass owner hired a college coach that wasn't trying make game adjustments. It's one if the reasons why the players never respected him.
I like the pieces the Cavs have at the moment. Sexton is an efficient scorer,Kevin Porter Jr has the potential to be a Harden-lite(if,he stays out of trouble),Dylan Windler (who missed all of last season due to injury)can be a Duncan Robinson like player but rebounds the ball alot better and Darius Garland is fully healthy,him and Windler can stretch the floor and it looks like Obi Toppin will be drafted by us(something I'm against)unless,all these reports are smokescreen.
The defense was better under Bickerstaff but still needs work. I think it's heading in the right direction. My three main issues are the stupid owner might fuck up the team by trying to trade some of the young players to get veterans to go to the playoffs,not allowing Bickerstaff to coach these players up and not fixing the defense something that's been an issue since the Cavs won the title.
This current team is light years better than the team Lebron left the first time but that stupid owner think he can rush player development....
Yep. Giannis they best player and biggest issue all in 1. Not sure that has ever been done b4. Don't see these moves putting them over the top
They'll be lucky to get a tall can and 4 loosies for kuzma inconsistent ass
Make it 5 loosies and a four loco and we have a deal
Dude came back from being away for four months way past his injury schedule and still wasn't close to 100%
That tells you everything and why there's no market
Yea they were a contender 1 out of the 7 years Harden has been there. You’re right he definitely right he fades late in the playoffs and I think that’s fatigue related.They were a Chris Paul injury away from probably going to the Finals
It's pretty much the same shit KD did
Only Harden is more responsible for their playoff failures because dude chokes.
The Heat are legit. Not just saying that because they made it to the Finals. I was watching them a lot pre bubble and Jimmy truly mentored the younger players and instilled a lot of confidence in them. Also those high post sets with Bam at the elbow were almost unstoppable.
Christian Wood of the Pistons is an under the radar guy to watch this off-season btw
Shit, they weren't a seventh or eight struggling to make the playoffs
They were in the top half and making it past the first round
I would trade the kuz to espn for kendrick perkins at this point, I just want him off the team lol
Explore?
They need to do more than that to get rid of that low budget Tristan Thompson
I agree. But being a top seeded playoff team doesn’t make you a contender imo. Milwaukee has shown that the past few years. Still don’t understand how Budenholzer still employed. You don’t play your best player over 34 minutes a game in the playoffs and even in ELIMINATION games
They were a contender getting 50 wins every fuckin year
Like three or four times they were either the first or second seed in the west
You dudes have short memories.
Not a contender
All I’m hearing is a contender to be a top seeded playoff team. Playoffs hit different is all I’m sayingThey were a contender getting 50 wins every fuckin year
Like three or four times they were either the first or second seed in the west
You dudes have short memories.
Not a contender
When exactly is a one, two to three seed not a contender in the league?
Denver wasn't a contender this year?
Rockets get bounced 2 early in the playoffs for my liking. You can be a top seed but if you gone in the second round what’s that matter.
As a fan of the team that arguably made the worst trade of the last ten years I understand player development but the issue historically with y'all is the ability to sign a star.
As constructed (with Obi and Windler), do you think that lineup makes the playoffs in the next three seasons?
I don't know because I thought the team could win 20-25 games last year but there were issues with Beilin. Granted,the players love Bickerstaff alot and played well in the last 11 games before the season was suspended.
Is Drummond willing to play within himself instead of acting like a point guard (I think he's getting traded). Drummond is a great rebounder and can steal the ball good for a center but has too many mental lapses on defense.That's one of the reason,why the Pistons dumped traded him for nothing.
Garland needs to stay healthy and stop passing the ball when he's open.
Windler is a question mark but I think he will do the things he did at Belmont. A great rebounder,cutter and three-point threat.
I'm not worried about Sexton because he's so obsessed about getting better to the point it turned off alot of veterans in his rookie season.
As,for Kevin Porter Jr,I'm worried he's gonna be one of those players he had all the skills but never reached his potential.
If,things pans out I can see the team win around 30-35 games fighting for the 10th spot to get in the play-in game...
Man those right outside the playoffs positions are basketball purgatory. Keep improving and stay consistent and y'all be something tho.
Contender to me means that you actually had a chance to win. Just because you’re in the playoffs, doesn’t mean that you were ever actually going to win a championship.
When the year starts, there really only a few teams “Contending” for a championship.
when they trade you and lie to your face about it?
its a business right?
Until a player LEAVES THEM
then its personal...
funny how that works.
Repair the relationship, what happened?
I'm not saying Heat are bad I'm just saying they aren't some dynasty to where I'd be shocked if they missed out on the Finals next season.
I like Christian Wood too. He put in some good minutes when the Pistons got rid of Drummond.
I was gonna say what is there to repair? He just tired of being there lol.
I guess, Harden is trying to force his way out and the front office want the farm x2 for him.....
I'm just saying its too early to tell. If you that confident you should probably put money on the Heat right now lol.
Who is the Bucks?
