A team full of rookies? Wiggins will be the only rookie in the starting lineup. The Cavs have already made it public that they're fully-invested in keeping Wiggins. If Bron does move, I think he'll be reasonable and not expect a title from the jump. They're a young team, they'll need to grow.

Yes I've heard this nonsense before :snooze:

Thompson is a below average starting PF. No one knows what Wiggins will be, he could be the next T-Mac or he could be the next Corey Brewer, no one knows but if I'm a guy in win-now mode I'm not holding out hope on a 19 year old panning out when I could go to other teams with proven talent.

They're still a young team with a bright future. What do you think I'm saying here?

Lebron would be able to win now with this squad now if he played like he is the closer, nikkas suddenly acting like Kyrie isn't a top 10 pg and probably even higher up there if he didn't have to focus on running that squad.

The only team in the NBA that isn't suspect is the Spurs at the moment. I been saying it all weekend but this team could be a problem if Waiters bought in as well. It's not a guarantee but this team wouldn't shock me if they made a deep run right now with Bron:yeshrug:

They're a young team but is the future really that bright? Just because they have a bunch of young players that were drafted high doesn't mean they're all gonna pan out and doesn't mean they're actually good.

Kyrie is possibly the most overrated point guard in the league, Waiters is a chucker and doesn't mesh that well with Kyrie to begin with, no one knows what Wiggins will be there's a very real possibility he doesn't live up to the hype, Tristan is a below average starting PF, Zeller and Bennett are scrubs.

I'm not really seeing the Cleveland appeal as a potential championship squad honestly. Especially when you factor in that just like LeBron's first time, more than likely no one will want to sign there. Like I said, if LeBron went back there I'd understand but I'm just not sold on them.

You might be right about that... But the media/public is always gonna see it as title or bust no matter where he plays

No it's quite clear that you don't get it. You're saying what YOU want them to do, and I'm telling you what THEY want to do. I'm only passing along the message/information, yet you're in here screaming what you thinks best.

They want to keep wiggins assuming they don't get lebron. Wiggins ain't no fukking shooting guard.

If the cavs have the opportunity to get lebron even if it means throwaway wiggins, they gonna do it

They gonna do anything to make lebron happy and what makes lebron happy? WINNING DOES

This isn't brain surgery. They keep wiggins, they don't win. They trade wiggins and get love, they win. Lebron is happy and he stays

Kyrie has panned out. He's the most clutch player in the league + they have cap room to land a star(s).

Right, so you've basically just projected their floors and given instances of how it may go wrong and no examples of how it may go right?

That's fine, what I want to know is why did you even quote me in the beginning? It seems like your arguing against something I never argued for.
