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

[Georgiamuscle]

Didn't it drop 60 on them and beat them in 7 in the previous round tho

40 or 50 and most were off of those touch fouls they were calling in the 4th

Yall want Bron to win so bad yall start making up stats now

How was his series against Kyrie?

 

[10bandz]

they traded one Kobe stan for another

Jae Crowder is a nice pick up though


Danny Ainge is a sketchy muthafuka too

 

[Eye Cue DA COLI GAWD]

John Wall and Brad Beal looking at the Cavs like

Cleveland got even worse defensively

Dudes in here saying 5'9" IT is Kyrie's equal

Same dude that averaged like 5 points before he got "hurt"

Y'all nikkas really be posting for attention huh

 

[MeachTheMonster]

So the Cavs are going to build around IT? Because we all know LeBron is gone next year

Why do people keep saying this as if it's a forgone conclusion?

Colidotcom.....

2016 y'all nikkas were on Kyries nuts..now y'all talking bad on him lol.

 

[Kal El]

Ainge got finessed.

IT and the Brooklyn pick are the centerpieces but the Crowder addition is huge as well. Jefferson, Korver, and Shump are all liabilities on one end of the floor.

Putting a true two-way player next to Bron who can take pressure off him defensively is exactly what he needed. Helluva haul for Cleveland.

Y'all nikkas really be posting for attention huh

So a 5'9" pg that can't defend anyone is the same defensively as Kyrie? Who can defend when he tries? See 2016 NBA finals.

The first thing I thought when reading that was "Mrs. Fat Elephant Cac is pissed off." That coli influence on me.

Nobody in here is talking bad about him tho.

nikkas in here talking bout the wizards gonna beat the cavs and cavs got worse defensively when IT and kyrie are practically the same defensively

Kyrie is an incredible 1 on 1 player, but getting a comparable offensive player in Thomas, and then getting a 3 & D SF that can play the small ball PF is a huge get for the Cavs considering the other offers for Kyrie and the fact they could never get a player of Crowder's talent level because of their cap situation.

The pick also allows flexibility if they want to make a run at Big Spain or Boogie if they are on the trade market.

 

[DonKnock]

IT's ft rate is a big plus when compared to kyrie who doesn't really get to the line that much

Nah, let me let you in on a little secret as a Harden fan, FTs don't actually count if you are posting on the Internet.

Theyre actually what we like to call a net negative

 

[Styles]

Have you lost your mind, they know have IT, Crowder, Zize, Rose and possibly D- Wade and you think they are taking a step back. The Celtics were figuratively raped by agreeing to this garbage deal. Ainge should be fired immediately.

In respects to the trade only. Not sure why you're including Wade and Rose when they have nothing to do with the trade.

Isaiah shoots sub 40% in the playoffs and can't guard shyt. Getting Crowder is good for Cleveland but losing Kyrie who can cook some of the best defenders in the league and a proven playoff performer is an L. Not many dudes in the league can cook Klay like Kyrie can. This is a lateral move for the regular season but Cavs aren't as good in the playoffs.

 

[Houston911]

Ainge passed on porzingis cuz of the nets pick

 

[Georgiamuscle]

Bron stans in here have revisionist history
First it was "Kyrie owns the match up against Steph and if he stayed healthy in 2015 they would have 2 rings"

Now he's barely better than Smush Parker

 

[DonKnock]

Before this trade one of the things I felt the league was gonna do next year was tighten up the calls for IT and Harden particularly next year. We'll see if IT can be remain that productive at the line

Tell defenders to stop grabbing when they're chasing around the screen then


shyt is a foul that never gets called


That heathen Roberson should be fouling out in the 1st Q
