Kinda wish OKC beat the Hawks. They are coming into Cleveland pissed.
Should be a great game though.

i really want a long stretch of Kyrie/Dion playing against each other for fukkery sake.

Shows the issue really resided in LBJ/Griffin's re-construction.
I figured going into the season that it would patchwork at the 5 spot and that Mozgov was a pipe dream.
It's amazing, a series of things have to constantly happen for this team to get what it needs.
Example:
1. Bulls have to trade up with Denver to get Doug McDermott.
2. The Nuggets have to draft Nurkic.
3. Javale McGee has to continue to be hurt and underwhelming as a player.
4. The Nuggets then had to suck the first half of the season.
5. Nurkic has to show his immediate value to make Mozgov expendable in the right deal.
6. Mozgov ends up being what the Cavs need at the 5 spot and he randomly has a 4 year history with the head coach.
If the Bulls don't trade up for McBuckets we never get Mozgov.

No, just timing, luck, and having the assests to make deals.
The Bulls likely take Nurkic if they would've kept their two first round picks.
None of this happens if they stay put and don't trade up.
It's just seems to be the underlying theme with how this roster came together this year hence the thread title.

Real G's move in silence
Ya know what am I wrong for thinking we should keep J.R. in the starting lineup permanently and bring Shump off the bench?
Yea they should keep him there. Why fukk with a good thing when he's red hot. I think Shump will take some time to get back up to speed anyway.

JR is so much better then Dion.
dion does nothing exceptionally well but always wants to bytch about getting to shoot.
Not really.
Mozgov was the ideal big they needed. They knew that this summer and the likelihood of the Nuggets parting with him was low. All of those things had to happen in order for him to be available.

Okay, I get what you saying.
A lot of things had to happen in order for the cavs to get one of the few id not the only Ideal big available.
I feel you.
