The Cavs should consider starting Wade at point and making IT the 6th man

We need to make some trades shake some of the dead weight after yesterday DeAndre should just go ahead and move to the cavs.
full

They should prob should check up on Gasol. The Warriors are way too clever they gon make Deandre a liability out there

I agree with alot of your post. But IT isn’t maximizing that offense. He’s not finding shooters...not running pick and roll, he’s just trying to get it going. If you gonna be a tunnel vision scorer you’d damn well better be dominant with it the way Kyrie was or else your squad is gonna suffer.
You do realize breh is just now coming back from a major injury, right? I know y'all are extremely reactionary around here but at some point you've got to use some perspective.

Yes.

Do y'all not remember what Isaiah looked like last year? And do y'all not remember Kyrie having all kinds of struggles against Golden State in the Finals last season as well?

IT looked good last year. That Boston system was built around him perfectly. He’ll never be able to play the same with Bron on his team and second he still ran into the same problems when he faced long athletic defenders.

And Kyrie wrecked havoc on the Warriors. He had a couple of bad shooting games but he got whatever he wanted whenever he wanted and never had a problem finishing over anyone

What’s going to change even when he gets his legs? IT doesn’t match up well with these warriors. Kyrie could at least hold his own on defense...they were lil manning IT out there yesterday.

Dumb thread. IT needs time to play his way back into shape and the cavs didn't get him to be a playmaker or run the point

IT even in shape is a liability against a team like the Warriors. He doesn’t finish well enough in the paint either. And on D he makes it so difficult for everyone else. I understand how u feel but even when IT gets healthy he’s still gonna be 5’8

Is Curry gonna eat off a healthy IT...of course. Nobody can stop him. But an in shape IT will at least make him work on the other end. And having his legs will at least give him a fighting chance to chase curry around on D. He'll still get ate up but not as bad.

Bruh we both know if IT gets it going even a little Curry is gonna switch off on him and go guard JR or somebody. Curry always has that luxury. So it comes down to what you can do on defense..how much or little the Warriors can exploit you. Cause they love exploiting weaknesses. And IT has some major ones

They knew all that when they traded for him what's your fukking point?

My point is the OP. Start Wade. Bring IT off bench and let him microwave. IT still gets the bulk of the mins. But let Wade get the other guys their shots and confidence...including his own
