All I see are old guys, too many who need the ball to maximise their effectiveness, dudes who don't/can't/won't play elite D & guys who'll command too much money to be able to fill a roster around them :yeshrug:

Dan Lebatard made a great point; you need value to go along with great players.

Steph is on a value contract, so is Dray and Klay and Andre.

All them dude tryna get paid, so no.

Who the hell said it was a straight-up CP3 for Kyrie trade? :mindblown:


And isn't "old CP3" the same age as Lebron? And isn't Lebron who they're going to win titles with? You really think Lebron will retire 5/6 years from now and the Cavs are going to build a champion starring Kyrie and Love? :mjlol:


Are you forgetting that JR/Shump averaged like 32% shooting combined over the last two Finals?

That the Cavs are still incredibly weak on shooters who can get it done when it matters?

That Love just averaged 8ppg on 36/26/70 shooting splits AND played poor defense?

That the Kyrie/Love defensive combination is STILL a massive liability?


This version of the Cavs BARELY beat the previous version of the Warriors with Lebron balling out of his mind and all sorts of things going wrong for Golden State. Now you expect that they're going to beat a much better version of the Warriors? How the hell is that going to happen?


Kyrie balled out in the Finals, but he's not a piece in a superteam. Even at his absolute peak, he doesn't set up his teammates well and he's still a minus defender over the course of a season and playoffs.

By giving up Kyrie, the Cavs would get a big upgrade at power forward AND trade in a 6th man who can't shoot for one who can. And CP3 would be the perfect Point God to slot onto a superteam.

Can you imagine CP3 throwing lobs to Lebron AND Blake AND Tristan....while he also has JR and JJ to hit threes too? :patrice:


Can you imagine Lebron drawing a double-team....only Blake's guy can't dare leave him...AND Lebron has CP3/JR/JJ to hit open threes? :gladbron:


Do you realize how big an upgrade on team defense TT-Blake-Lebron-JR-CP3 is over TT-Love-Lebron-JR-Kyrie? :manny:


You're talking about turning down:

PG: 2nd-team All-NBA
PF: 3rd-team All-NBA (before he got hurt)
SG: 16ppg on 48/48/89 shooting


Because you want to keep:

PG: Only made one 3rd-team All-NBA in his whole career
PF: Came damn close to being useless in the NBA Finals
SG: 6ppg on 37/30/78 shooting and was also nearly useless in the NBA Finals



The Kyrie Irving fetish on the Coli is just too much. If it wasn't for the stylish look of his And-1 game, we'd still be arguing about where he ranked alongside Lilliard and Lowry, not saying that he's so untouchable that you would give up getting a ground-shaking haul of CP3/Blake/JJ Reddikk in order to keep Kyrie and little else.
how bout i just say fukk ya, i ain't reading all that shyt... :camby:

Suck a dikk or hold one fakkit. The big3 were bought together by trades, you piece of shyt. Plus, they were all past their prime and age 30+. They didnt go out and say hey lets play together, you fakkit.
Shut the fukk up breh. It may not have been explicit but it damn sure got the ball rolling. Definitely the most mild of the 3. They don't brother me nearly as much but that's the first domino

Lebron created a superteam just to beat Kobe so I guess Kobe is truly the GOAT.

No, the first domino was Lebron. He couldn't beat the Celtics so he ran to join up with 2 top 10 players. We've never seen superstar players say fukk competition, I'm going to take the easy route until LeBron joined the Heat. None of the previous gen superstar/allstars left their teams through free agency to form a super team before LeBron. You can even go back and look at old tweets of KD shytting on the move. LeBron set this bytchmade buddy buddy precedent that flows through today's nba.

The Celtics had the East on lock. Minus 2009, We wouldve went to the finals every year from 2008-2012. It's crazy cause we wouldve easily beat the Maverick team the Heat lost to in 2011.

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
Lebron
Kyrie
AD
Westbrook
Harden
Cp3
Blake
Kawahi
George
Steph
KD

Who on this list are you putting Klay or Dray over :comeon:

Last year I'm definitely taking Dray over Blake, if the Clippers called up the Warriors right now with an offer of Blake for Dray they'd turn it down, what he gives them on defense goes well beyond what Blake can give you.

Klay vs Kyrie vs PG toss up and would just come down to preference :yeshrug:

Fair enough. At the end of the day it's fukk LeBron. I ain't even mad at Boston for what they did tbh. LeBron is the one who took it to unnecessary levels. He fukked up the game :snoop:.

Don't come at me with that other bullshyt no more tho. Put some respek on my name :ufdup:. You don't want to make an enemy out of me :sas1::troll:
