Never have been a core poster in here anyways and I think yall hated me for insisting that Josh Cribbs was a better receiver than Greg Little in like 2012 (which I still believe). And insisting that letting Lawrence Vickers go is the reason we are terrible (which I still believe as well).

I just don't want Rod Johnson to get unnecessary criticism because his doppleganger is posting in online forums instead of becoming our future HOF LT. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, oh, I agree about Vickers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean Lawrence Vickers had 3 career TD receptions against the Steelers alone for christ's sake. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Kyrie's shine was being blocked by Lebron, since he is capable of being the best offensive player on a championship team. So I get it, I wish it was otherwise though. 1 I honestly dont believe he could be the best offensive player on a championship team. When he was asked to carry the scoring load or was asked to lead the offense when James was out, he failed to be successful at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be right, we will have to see how far he can take the Celtics in the next few years. With teams like the Rockets/GSW/whoever Lebron plays for in the fold he might not be efficient enough, nor the passer, to truly be the best offensive player. But the Cavs were already starting to give him more shots than Lebron before he left. I think it's honestly a spotlight/leadership thing for him. He could get 25 shots a game as long as Lebron was there the team would run through him not Kyrie. I don't think Lebron will/should ever relegate himself to an amazing veteran role player, he's too darn good with the ball in his hands to become that. Maybe if he plays until he's 40+ he'll check himself. If Kyrie was a much better facilitator I could easily see him and a host of defensive players/shooters plus a reliable scoring big being incredibly successful.

To me Irving would have to be like Kobe (post shaq) and get the team around him perfectly to win a title Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bosko1616 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Question do you guys think the nets pick, tristin Thompson and Korver would get a deal done for Leonard or would we have to add or swap out Love/Cedi.

Cavs: Kawi Leonard and Danny Green Spurs: Nets Pick, TT, And Korver The only way the Cavs would have a snow ball chance to get Leonard is if the nets pick ends up being the #1 pick, Leonard demands a trade, and the Spurs would have to believe that Ayton, or Bagley or whoever they would take #1 is someone they could develop into a better player than Kawhi and even then the Cavs would still have to give up more that TT and Korver Two out of conditions are very unlikely to happen.

If he is truly upset, after the 18-19 season he has a player option, so he could walk and they get nothing for him. With how deep this draft is, if they wanted another player to build around this might be the draft to do it in. I doubt they would want TT. I would be willing to give up the Nets pick and Love Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
