Except Wade won a ring before Bron showed up and Bosh was putting in work up North averaging a double double and making the playoffs.

Things Kyrie has never done without Bron. If Bron didn't return the only thing the cavs would be winning is lottery picks.
 
That's what makes the Cavs so great. Lebron does the heavy lifting, then Kyrie turns into mini Mamba in the clutch.
 
ya know russ did that on purpose
all he had to do was roll the ball or simple bounce bass

i like russ, but that was obviously intentional. look at that smirk right afterwards :lol

[thread="654406"]True but both were already established players and knew who they were prior to joining forces.[/thread]
[thread="654406"] [/thread]
[thread="654406"]Kyrie only had 3 seasons before Lebron. 1st season he was getting you almost 20 and 5 in the games he suited up for. 2nd season, 23 and 6. 3rd, 20 and 6. Those are still great numbers for a young player. With some decent pieces around him, who knew what he would've become without Lebron.[/thread]
[thread="654406"] [/thread]
[thread="654406"]My point in the Miami comparison was that these players had to adapt their games to suit Lebron similar to what Kyrie and K.Love have to do now in Cleveland.[/thread]

What’s the correlation between the cellar-dwelling Sixers and Nets and the defending champs? The loss dropped Cleveland’s record to just 4-18 in games in which James didn’t play since the start of the 2014-15 season, when he returned for a second stint with the franchise. That’s a winning percentage of just .182.

That’s right. Without James, the Cavs play worse than the worst teams in the league.

4-10 with Kyrie/Love & NO Lebron...
 
I don't know mayne...I'd seriously think about parting ways with DLoading and maybe even Randle or Nance (love them both) to get a shot at Jimmy.

I'm fine with that...after we secure a draft pick for one of the other PGs coming out this year. Wait until the draft to trade for him.
 
Please don't let Thibs trade Lavine and Wiggins for Jimmy B. I could see it happening
 
I'd let go of Lavine, not Wiggins but at the end of the day, no one is safe outside of KAT.

If the Lake Show couldn't get him, I'd rather see him stay in the Eastern Conference, we need some sort of competition in that conference.

will free up time for dunn. a dunn/butler backcourt will be locking dudes up
right now, these young kids are showing no effort in wanting to be great defenders

I like Lavine, but it would be a deal I'd make. Jimmy and KAT defensively would be a great perimeter-inside defensive duo.

Also get to see what Dunn has.

Send Stringer to NO for Solomon hill and Frazier boy.

Bulls get pieces for the tank and AD gets help

Maybe?
 

He hasn't even really improved at all since his first year, he's basically the exact same player since his rookie year, except now Lebron perfectly cover for all his weaknesses.



He hasn't added ANYTHING new to his game, he's the same player, why would you think he would have add stuff without Lebron?
 
I don't see it. What does Jimmy do for Minny that actually moves the needle?? Yea they might win a few more games and grab a 7th/8th seed next year and get knocked out.

Rather bank on the all star/ star potential of Lavine and Wiggins. As a wolves I know it's been a disappointing season but them boys are all 21 I'm willing to give it time
 
I would totally get rid of Wiggins over Lavine.


If I'm going to have a wing who doesn't rebound, defend, or pass, I'll take the one that shoots 40% from 3.





I think Wiggins development has been handled terribly, I find his skills coach that Drew Hanlan guy to be deeply annoying, teaching guys 15 dribble combinations, that end....in a mid range jumpshot. :{ :lol

teaching Anthony Bennett 14 cross overs and a half spin to get off....a mid range jump shot.



How about a hook shot? How about jump for a rebound? :x

Wiggins makes me so sad.

Cause you can blame the skills guy or whatever but offensivly, he is above where I really thought he would be.

I thought that guy was going to become a Kawhi level defender and with his athlecism there is just no excuse for him to be such a poor defdender/rebounder.

He just had no dog/heart in him at all.
