Cleveland Cavaliers - Wine & Gold bby

[nahnah]

This is the type of deal that got us Kyrie, unfortunately the rockets aren’t as stupid as the clippers and put a protection on their pick so we need them to make the playoffs to get the first rounder

 

[nahnah]

next season we are likely to be super active also as we have a heap of expiring deals next season:
TT -18.5mil
Knight - 15.6mil
Clarkson - 13.4mil
Henson - 9.7mil
Delly - 9.6mil
Cedi - 2.9mil (hopefully we keep)

 

[Oscarman]

Did we really need to beat the Knicks?

 

[nahnah]

Unfortunately now the knicks have traded Porzingis + Hardaway there is no hope of finishing below them, they have one decent player on their entire roster and he's not even that good

 

[nahnah]

So we are 54 games into the season and we havent had a single player score 30 points or have 10 assists in a game..

Cedi, Sexton - 29pts
Burks - 9 assists (twice)

Probably wont see either unless Delly starts a few games

well there you go in the same game
Clarkson - 42 points
Delly 13 assists

A triple OT game will do that, they got an L to stay in bottom 3 too

Perfect result for the Cavs lol

 

[nahnah]

Cedi has been playing very well

 

[nahnah]

68 down, 14 to go.

 

[nahnah]

Just 9 to go

 

[The King!]

Zion please

 

[nahnah]

I have to say I really hope we (get Zion) don’t drop out of the top 4 on lottery night because outside of Zion/Barrett/Morant/Culver this draft looks fairly meh

Take a flier on Horton-Tucker with the rockets pick

 

[nahnah]

Ending the season on a 10 game losing streak is some solid tanking. We will have a coin toss to determine if we get second or third best odds I believe. Lottery is just over a month away

 

[nahnah]

Draft update:
- lost a tie breaker with Portland so our Rockets pick is locked in at 26
- won a tie breaker with Phoenix so our own pick is currently in the 2nd slot, lowest it can fall is to pick 6

 

[nahnah]

good luck to him, 5 year contract hope its not another big payout on the way

 

[nahnah]

 

[djrossie16]

Seems like a good hire tbh for where cavs are at. Anything can happen but his credentials stack up for what they want.

 

[nahnah]

wet myself a little when Woj called him one of the greatest offensive tacticians in all of basketball

 

[Oscarman]

Now just to get pick 1 in the Lottery

 

[nahnah]

Now just to get pick 1 in the Lottery

I’m going to set fire to my Kyrie jersey tonight as an offering to the basketball gods

Surely we get Hunter now?

 

[djrossie16]

Surely we get Hunter now?

That would be the ideal fit now.

 

[nahnah]

Falling out of the top 3 sucks. Goodbye Zion, RJ and Morant.

Surely we get Hunter now?

It'll be him, White, Reddish or Culver.

I rank them:
1. White - a 6'5 point guard that can play with Sexton although defense will be an issue... Portland have made it work with lillard and CJ though
2. Hunter - 3 and D wing with large wingspan
3. Reddish - played horribly but probably has the most upside of the 4
4. Culver - I was initially really high on him but his release is too slow, way too slow

Reddish is crap.

Reddish is crap.

outside of the top 3 its all pretty barren
