Man I think the Wolves would be stupid to turn down a trade like that if it was real.
I was thinking Noel +Covington +Picks is way too much for Lavine.
The amount of luck it took for GSW to win their title in 2014 far surpasses the "crazy ****" that had to happen for Cavs to win.
GSW needed 1-2 stars injured on their opponents team in the 1st 2nd 3rd and Finals for them to win, yes all 4 rounds, Cavs had to overcome 3 games.
4 seven game series worth of luck > 3 games worth of "crazy ****"

That isn't the point.
If that series goes one more game, two, whatever....it's more games and not the same.......
Every god damn round they faced a crippled team, but Cavs had SOOOOOO much luck getting passed GSW. Sure. Same Same.

I'm agreeing with you. The Cavs didn't play anyone with injuries during the playoffs. GSW didn't lose any key players to injury during the finals either.

Oh I thought you were being facetious with the "Jrue" comment saying even if they had Jrue it wouldn't have mattered or something.
My bad.
Shoeking been defending that stance for a while now and I had to finally say something, today I had time cuz.

So what's the verdict on CJ now that we see him without Dame? I personally love the way he scores but I haven't seen enough games to judge anything else he does. Would you trade for him?

That I completely agree on. But what tier would you put him? can he be a regular all-star? Top 5 SG?

I bet that a couple of years down the line most of the sub-.500 free throw shooters will adopt this technique and this guy beat them as the first one who revitalized this technique. Props to him.saw that when he was at louisville
he made it to the league
get it however you can. a lot of guys that struggle need to swallow their pride and try shooting it underhand
I can't believe some of those players "pride". Yeah, shooting underhand looks ridiculous, but airballing free throws doesn't.

As players or ceiling?
CJ seems to be the better playmaker, shooter, ballhandler and iso player.
LAvine is probably the better defender.

I hope so too. I mean, you know what is more embarrassing than granny free throws? Shooting 50% from the line and letting the other team intentionally foul you because they know you effing SUCK at free throws. That alone would make me change my technique.
Edit: I should add that Rick Barry's legacy consists of (mainly) two things, 1. Underhanded free throws, and 2. Being a colossal a-hole that literally nobody likes to this day. Without those underhanded free throws, what is Rick Barry? A Top 25 player who nobody liked. Yet, we revere him for sticking to the underhand free throws (4th-best all-time). This would be a great PR opportunity for any established poor free throw shooter in the league (like Dwight, Drummond, etc.). Tell the media you're making the switch, work on it for an off season, and come back next year with a new technique. Wouldn't Andre Drummond, as his age, benefit tremendously by changing his technique? Make it cool again.
