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.

5. IT's scoring isn't even what the Cavs need. They need to play better defense which IT is terrible at.

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.

It's a less effective version of Bron barreling to the rim, once you start getting calls you might as well keep doing it :yeshrug:

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.

I think it was the same with Dirk for a lot of his career. shyt isn't as deflating when there seems like there isn't much you can do I guess. Like KD just gonna shoot over you, can't expect much. Curry/Harden/Lillard/Kyrie all hitting crazy threes on you or doing something ridiculous at the rim. KD can deflate other teams with his pull up three or a defense play followed by a dunk, but not just via his scoring. Different for different players. Like with Kobe once he started hitting over double teams you could see the frustration on other players.
