If I’m magic....I’m doing everything in my power to talk IT into staying and accepting that 6th man role while playing starter minutes....day by day this nikka is getting closer to 100%

Dumb ass Cavs
I definitely want to keep him at a reasonable price. His playmaking has surprised me more than anything else at gives them that alpha scorer.

Something about KD's scoring is so weird. Usually when the elite scorers like Curry, Harden, Lillard, Kyrie etc get going & start racking up the points in quick succession whilst hitting ridiculous shots that shyt is incredibly deflating for the opposing team. KD doesn't seem to have the same effect for some reason.


Kinda reminds me of the 2012 Finals where he led the series in scoring with ridiculous efficiency yet it somehow didn't feel that way.

That was a dope play from Lonzo.

Does randle have any other move except drive into your body and spin?
No he doesn't. It shows you how terrible inside players are now. nikka does the same shyt and is averaging like 27 a game in the last few games.

Stop being so short-sided...

1.IT wasn't willing to come off the bench in Cleveland.

2.IT was a lockerroom cancer.

3.It would have gotten exposed in the playoffs.

4.IT would have wanted 25-30m per year from the Cavs.

Cleveland made the right move...They got two young rotation players who will help them over the next 3-5 year.

He dont need one. He unguardable down low, he gets what he wants when he wants it. Too quick too strong. Shooting 70% from down there

They shouldve give him more time. If bron leave, nance and clarkson aint moving the needle like that. They gave up a first too in a pretty decent draft

Fair point. Just kinda mind blowing the warriors are even guarding him when he has the ball at the perimeter.

Thats why going to a squad that won 73 without KD don't magically make you a better player

Prime Bron and Curry>>>> Prime KD and its not that close

they have way more impact than KD
