bigben07MVP Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 John Beilein needs to go. I doubt he lasts the rest of the season. Meanwhile Sexton is a freaking baller I think Thompson is the most likely to get traded. Nance can fill his role anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hornbybrown Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Do not I repeat do not draft RJ Hampton anywhere in the first round!! Probably not even the second round. He has been playing for the NZ Breakers in the Australian pro basketball league the NBL. He is averaging a triple single against far inferior player’s and teams than what he will go up against in the NBA. He should be dominating this league if he has what it takes to be a top level NBA player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This roster was doomed from the beginning. 2 undersized guards who don’t pass and can’t play defense with a front court that can’t block a shot and a “star” who moves like my grandma.

Says stupid crap at the podium, blames everything on having a young team. Rotations are absolute garbage. He is in way over his head in the NBA.

Pick the best kid in the draft, play them and see who you have and move them to make parts fit when you’re ready to try to compete. We just aren’t there yet.

Too bad the draft coming up is probably the worst level of top talent since the Anthony Bennett/Nerlens Noel draft way back when. I personally cant wait for the deadline just to see if we can get some more assets or another young guy off somebody elses roster just to shake it up. I would like to see guys like Dean Wade get more PT after the AllStar break just to see what we might have with extended looks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are still a few. I would take Wisemen in a heartbeat if I were the Cavs. I hope he is on the board for us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhioG Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 PSA: JB Bickerstaff is in charge of rotations since Beilein is new to the NBA. It was mentioned in one of the press conferences JB seems to hate Cedi as he takes him out as hes getting hot or the team just ices him. Our defense isnt bad when its Sexton - Porter Jr in the back court. Unfortunately we keep trying to make SexLand happen. Garland is just going to struggle as a defender and putting Sexton at 2 is just unfair to the young bull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigben07MVP Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Yea, JB needs to go as well. Garland definitely needs to see his minutes decrease, at least until the all star break. Our best backcourt is Sexton-KPJ My favorite lineup right now is Sexton-KPJ-Osman-Love-Nance 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garland is just going to struggle as a defender and putting Sexton at 2 is just unfair to the young bull. Well, we statistically have the worst 2 backcourt defenders ever....the Cavs really really really need to prioritize big lengthy wings and a rim protector. Having Sexton/Garland/Love on the court all at the same time is a disaster. They need to build like Raps/Blazers are built. Blazers surrounded Dame/McCollum with guys like Farouq-Aminu, Harkless, Whiteside, Nurkic and Collins. The Raptors around Lowry/Vanvleet had Derozan, Kawhi, Siakam, Ibaka, Gasol and Valanciunas. All great defenders to protect the undersized guards on the perimeter. Personally a guy I have my eye on that would be perfect in a trade would be Mikal Bridges if Love gets shipped out. If they want to make 'Sexland' a thing for the forseeable future then the Cavs need to start building around them to help them both out.

LETSGOBROWNIES Posted February 5, 2020 Author Share Posted February 5, 2020 Yeah there’s no one to cover up for the mistakes of the kids at the rim. Love isn’t a good defender, we don’t have an elite wing defender, TT isn’t a rim protector, etc. I think Garland and Sexton can be fine moving forward, but they need to improve the front court length, athleticism and defensive ability.
