Boston adds 2nd round pick to finalize the Kyrie Irving trade

[G-Zeus]

This man said rest Rose

nikka Rose is done..

He's a scab now.. enjoy the 20 games he plays in where he looks like a compete shell of himself

His 2010-2012 Gilbert Arenas

id would rater 6'3 rose without injuries on my defensive end.. than IT

and on top of that.. rose played well last season... you guys bugging

 

[William F. Russell]

IT...breh...IT

i cant take one game as trend

Breh, you can question IT and whether he truly is an elite player in the league.

But for you to trash 2 years' worth of what he's done as a starter, an all-star, and a playoffs hero is unfair. Especially when he's shown repeatedly throughout these past 2 years how he can dominate opposing point guards who are supposedly the best in the game.

And, if nothing else, IT4's been a better player than Rose for the past 2 years.

The disrespect of Isaiah Thomas on the Coli must stop.

there are no "Cavs fans" its just bron dikkriders

Rose put up hollow stats on a bad team in a contract year(he cut 3's to make his fg% increase).Look at his last season with the bulls dude is garbage

Playing with lebron you need to be able to shoot 3's, and catch n shoot rose sucks at both( kyrie & it.t thrive at that) and he's a trash defender whose dpm wasn't that much worse than it.'s

Y'all look at stats and highlights.Look at impact rose is not an impact nba player and hasnt been in years.Only casual heads or rose groupies think otherwise

Definitely agree! The IT disrespect is disgusting. Dude has been balling for YEARS now. I definitely think he wouldn't be as disrespected on here if he played for a franchise other than Boston.

i am not trashing him.. i just understand how the play off is played.. and during the finals.. he will be a target of KD, draymond, and just about anyone who can dunk.. it will be 4 on 5... already they cant be GS as it is.. you dont want it to be a sweep.

what he did against the wizard is just that..the wiz.. they are a very flawed team with no bench... but if rondo was still healthy.. he would have been out round one..

regular season.. fine.. but comes play off.. I want Rose on the floor

So what can Rose, who has his own host of well-documented injuries, do much better than IT within the past 2 years?

How can Rose, whose entire game relied on his athleticism, be a better player than IT when he's virtually been sapped of said athleticism? And how can he be a better playoffs perform than IT?

Outside of his height, 2015-17 Rose has been an inferior player to 2015-17 IT.

i did say i would keep him fresh until the play offs... that means i am "hopefully wishing" he shows flashes of his old self..

if IT is the main guy.. and hey meet boston...Kyrie dropping 40 every night

he did.. but thats a good tradeoff if you FG% and TS% goes up with... if rose can give cavs those same numbers.. its a major plus

Rose can't play D. Rose can't shoot efficiently. If you give Rose extended minutes, he becomes a liability throughout the course of the game.

Rose is bench player status now.


That's why Cleveland traded for....wait for it.....IT.

this right there is the ultimate

danny really outdid himself

How TF was Danny pump-faking?


If anybody was pump-faking, it was the Cavs.

The Coli really needs to stop forcing the whole Ainge pump-faking narrative, especially since he's accomplished more than most teams' GMs.

 

[Kang Deezy]

Man, shut the fukk up. Try being a Kings fan. I haven't seen my team play ONE playoff game in ELEVEN YEARS! You over here bytching about a trade being completed. Hold this neg bytch.

I can honestly say I like what the kings are doing finally. They're going in the right direction. They are low key an nba league pass team this year.

Neg was unnecessary pal

they traded for IT, CROWDER and zizik + 1st round because its a great return on value..

on top of that.. if IT misses the entire season they might be able to apply for relief
+ cap relief from the deal
+ asset to trade their own asset and players for missing links (center + defensive pg)

if they reach the finals with a record of 60+ wins while lebron plays lesser minutes.. chances of signing him again are better than they are now.
