:lupe: well for one... Not bring back Lebron.

Keep Wiggins
Bring in a legit coach... Larry Brown or they could've waited for Thibs.

Lebron doesn't fit with a ball dominate point guard. Love doesn't play defense.

It should've been Irving, Waiters and Wiggins :manny:

All Lebron did was bring sudden Finals or bust expectations to players who weren't ready. The roster looked good on paper but if he had to scratch and claw to win two titles with Wade and Bosh, how did people think it was gonna be when he got back to Cleveland? This wasn't very well thought threw. Just my opinion.

And the owner is bytch made. When he wrote that letter the bridge should've been burnt. He lost all respect bringing Lebron back.

North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
Look... All I'm saying is if the Cavs simply wanted 50 wins a year and a stronger economy then bringing Lebron back was a good thing. I'm not mad at that. But winning a title is icing on the cake and wishful thinking. From the moment they entertained trading Love, and keeping Blatt I knew it wasn't gonna workout. Lebron is in his 30's now. Kyrie and Love where the alphas on their respective squads and have been reduced to role players. The coaches are there for show. The chemistry is meh at best. Lebron is surrounded with players who don't know how to win big games. They've been overachieving in the east since game one of last year.

Go through the annals of championship history and you'll find dozens of names of guys nobody thought could be the starter on a championship team though.

Breh you can't tell these dudes nothing. Everything is what happened today and to hell with countless examples of what history shows.

It's not rare at all. That's a reach.

Jr is a dude the can drop 16 in a qtr or hit 4 deep contested threes in back to back possesions and make some acrobatic drives and tough pull-ups. And finish with 30 in 24 mins. And do it the next game.

But he's also a guy who can go 0-5 from three and still put up more. Finishing 2-10. With some wild shots. And do it the next the game.
