Cleveland still getting ran off the court by GSW

IT is a way better creator for others.

IT is the better offensive player but Golden State are going to feast on whoever is switched onto him.

You don't want him defending any of Steph, Klay, Draymond, Iggy or KD.

Hell take shumpert too boston :MjgrinAnime:

 

[str8up]

believe a 5'9 guy will help you beat the Warriors brehs?

He had a growth spurt this summer, he's like 5'9" 1/2 now.

Why does it feel like this would make both teams worse?

Seems that way to me too but I do like the trade for Cleveland because it lets them get a head start on their inevitable rebuild.

True

 

[KRiLL (+)]

Act like you ain't already jump ship brehs

actually i haven't but this retarded ass trade is just too much, im ok with IT but Crowder? some center nobody knows? instead of having some balls & saying foh if we not getting Brown or Tatum & that Nets pick too? yea Gilbert gotta go back to Detroit somewhere...

 

[Rich Spirit]

Boston would be Kyrie's type of city

 

[Bledswole]

It is more clutch than Kyrie?

Kyries clutchness is the reason the cavs even have a goddamn ring

Lebron is the reason Cavs have a ring

Ainge has so much potential to make boston a power house and is blowing it
You couldn't convince hayward to take a few mill less to keep avery bradley
Didn't pull the trigger on PG or Butler
Now giving up huge pieces for a marginal upgrade at Point Guard
I hate the Celtics but seeing GMs do remedial things gets me irritated

 

[Black Hans]

Is Danny Ainge really this stupid? He's about to have a whole new team out there. The whole point was to IMPROVE the team not dismantle it. How is getting rid of Thomas, Crowder and Bradley (your core) making you better? Hayward/Irving isn't be anything special. I couldn't care less about the upside of Jaylen Brown or Jayson Tatum.

 

[ikbm]

elite level lateral move for both teams

Are we sure they'll rebuild even if Bron leaves?

You're making the playoffs in the East with
