Jalen Rose: Cavaliers would be even better when Isaiah Thomas comes back

[UpAndComing]

Cavs are bottom 3 worst defense in the league, don't know how IT would help that. I guess we'll see

He is certainly not going to improve their defense. They become a worst defensive unit with him there rather than Kyrie and his bad d last season. Kerr will make sure the Warriors target I.T. every time they get the ball on offense.

Duh he averaged 30 ppg last year and can shoot the three and attack the rim

And?
Cavs are starting Jose Calderon who is a even worse defender

He wont make them worst. His short ass is hard to defend for some reason. nikka stay getting to the rim and knock down 3's pretty consistently.

Basketball is about match ups. Do you really want Isiah out there on a team that can score 140 effortlessly and exploit weak defenders? Calderon is 6, 3 though, so teams are not going to really look him as a mismatch besides his quickness and not being able to keep up. Isiah has height, strength, and other factors working against him. The Warriors are taking it easy right now. Notice that Steph and Draymond have been out for games and they still hold the best record in the game. They are going to turn it up on everyone once again when the post season returns and win in dominating fashion again. Only team that I see can push them a little is OKC, but they may get knocked out sooner depending on who they play.

He is not going to be dominating the ball playing in Lebron's system and sitting out a majority of the season so far. He is going to have to learn this system by playing off ball more.

Wow that's why jalen rose gets paid the big bucks.They're goin to be better with IT who would have thought of that

 

[Auger]

Well they can't get any worse

 

[Darealtwo1]

Lmao no they not. Cavs needs stops not more points. Scoring has never been the issue for the cavs.

 

[EarlyEarly]

I think he'll make the team better against the majority of the league and teams that don't run motion heavy offenses. He'll make the trip to the Finals easier.

But when Steph runs off a millions screens and I.T. gets switched onto someone at least 6'7

breh jose calderon is the WORST pg defender ever dude is atrocious and he's starting right now. He's a black HOLE



im a raptors fan calderon even in his prime was literally the worst defender in the nba.

Only a fool would think the cavs would get worse with IT when they are starting jose friggin calderon

You think Lebron can play 48 Minutes vs Boston and Golden State?

I did not say that Calderon is not bad on D. Trust me I know about Calderon. What I'm saying is that he does not give up height. Just imagine I.T having to play on Klay or Livingston just because Lue does not want to put him on Curry. Cavs are going to have a tough decision to make when they have I.T. out there. You are not going to beat the Warriors by playing there game and running up the score.
