Cavs acquire Mozgov from nuggets

[yseJ]

Thing is the Cavs been trying to get Mozgov since this summer and there were rumors they wanted Shumpert. They got exactly what they wanted.....as far as the low 1st round picks...who cares.

They are a loaded team and don't need those picks. When they resign love it and retool the team over the next few years it could put them closer to the tax. We saw this with the heat when they had Lebron. They were trading 1st round picks every year to stay away from that tax.

Now they have enough defenders to cover for sorry ass no defense love and Irving who is a poor defender.

Like I said jokers better get their licks in this year cause after this year the Cavs gonna be big time elite.

I know love plays zero defense but is moz as good on D as people make him out to be ?

Im SO fukking glad my dubs didnt trade klay for love

He isn't Dwight, tyson chandler or mutumbo but he is a big body that will get in the way. Plus he is mobile can grab boards, block a shot or two and dunk in traffic.

You just need a big body for love because he is fukking horrible on defense. Hell Joel Anthony could have even been a decent pick up for them but he is small.

Basically love ain't bosh. People are starting to see how good bosh is defensively. Unlike kats like Dirk and Love. Bosh had the ability to play the 4 or 5 and cover those dudes defensively.

That is why I always laughed when people said the heat should have gotten dirk instead of Bosh to play along with Lebron and Wade. I was like so Lebron was gonna guard centers and PFs at the same time when then heat went small.

Chicago is the best team in the east based on the fact they actually have chemistry, talent, depth and are extremely well balanced & well coached.

The Cavs have talent, but putting it into play is what they need to do now, and don't discount the fact the Bulls starters are playoff tested.

Again they are second in the east right now, you and others are crowning a non champion, again what have they done to warrant this adulation? As far as im concerned right now Atlanta is the best team. The lack chemistry Cavs team beat this Bulls teams in Chicago after their second game together, yeah Jimmy didn't play but this Cavs team is also more talented. Again we've seen this Bulls story, im waiting till the playoffs. You don't know how this Cavs team will look in March and April, to declare they won't beat the Bulls is foolish.

Lol jimmy didn't play who would have calmed what Bron was doing down

Rose didn't finish the game and before he sprained his ankle he was torturing kyrie

And you all escaped because of a horrible and 1 call, without that cavs lose.

But it's cool let all the hype go back to the cavs I prefer the underdog role.

Lebron is averaging 27ppg 7rebs 5ast against Jimmy, so tell me again about slowing Lebron down

 

[HoopLife]

nikkas is really in here in their feelings.

Seriously. You have people saying they should have kept 2 late first round picks instead of a center that protects the rim. I can't wait until the playoffs start. Smh @ the poster who said Lebron isn't the best player in the league no more.

 

[Bilz]

Both teams won.

I can do better than tell you, I can SHOW you.

obv didnt help

being the fact the bulls have yet to best LBJ In the offs yet

 

[GetSomeMoney]

I can do better than tell you, I can SHOW you.

again 27ppg 7rebs 5ast, that's all I have to show, and with Butler taking on a larger offensive load, that will hinder his defense on Lebron

Where are you getting those numbers? Please don't tell me those are the numbers Bron averaged during the series.

Casual fans exposing themselves here. Mozgov is far from some soft, mediocre Euro and Cleveland hardly mortgaged their future considering they still have their own pick this year.

Cleveland has to have their pick because they gave up their 2016 1st rounder. Can't trade 1st rounders in consecutive years

The Bulls have the right to swap picks though and if the standings hold up they will definitely swap.

i) Butler averaged 26 minutes and Bron averaged 40 minutes when the Bulls/Heat played - so obviously Bron didn't score 27 points when Butler was on the court
ii) There's a certain portion of those games where Deng was the primary defender on Bron and Butler was on the bench
iii) Bron didn't averaged 27 points while Butler guarded him, he averaged 27 points in the games against the Bulls when Butler was on the team
iv) Bron's last two regular season games (where Butler was defending him) - Bron scored 17 points on 45% and 17 points on 34% shooting.
v) WATCH THE VIDEOS I POSTED!

Your response was obvious but tell me, Butler is going to guard Lebron EVERY minute in their future games, Lebron will not score 27 or more points in a game against the bulls ever again?

That's not the point, you specifically said that Bron averaged 27 points against Butler. He hasn't.

And besides Bron will always get his points in some way or another, he may have a bad game or two but he'll get his - it's about who can limit him and make him work for those baskets the most. Butler is the best in the league at doing that.
