He plays slow tempo which I don’t think is gonna fit with Sexton, Osman etc
But we will see I doubt they will trade him before season unless he suggests he wants out

With his contract I’d give him a start and see if the team can compete in the east, but * knows. At least one all star is something to watch is more where I am coming from


We aren’t in bad cap shape in a year really from memory . Aren’t hill and JR low guarantee?

I think I remember reading somewhere that their contracts aren’t as bad they look, especially Hill’s. We need to get rid of one of Clarkson and Hill. I rather keep Hill and ditch Clarkson but think it’ll be easier ditching Hill

Hill 19mill next year and only 1 the year after IIRC


Would you bring hood back?

 

[nahnah]

Only on a year cheap deal, he has anxiety issues that impact his performance too much

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Sad, but inevitable day really. I never thought he was staying after that Finals performance. He almost killed himself all season playing every game and carrying the team, it was like pre-2010 all over again.

I don't blame him and I certainly don't hate him. I'm sad and disappointed (like 2010) but this is a bit easier to take than 2010. Really gonna miss him because unless he constructs a way to play with his son at the Cavs in 5-6 years time he won't play for us ever again. THAT reality is what sucks most. I always thought he'd return after he left the first time but it might not happen again now.

Love the guy and appreciate everything he did for the franchise. Let's not forget the Cavs wouldn't have a 'chip without him. Gonna miss you 'Bron

Well said

At least Tickets will be cheaper if you head to the USA on holidays

I said when LeBron left cavs the first time ‘ if they already left once, they’ll probably leave again’ and sure enough he did... 2 more times.

If I was Boston I would be worried about Kyrie not being signed up beyond next season

Would love Kyrie back, not sure he'd come back though. Would he actually want to?

Wants to play with jimmy butler I just read

In New York I guess

 

[BEEG]

Have to lock in Hood could be a real steal.

How do Cav fans feel compared to the last time LeBron left?

Won a ring, and dominated the east for 4 straight years.

I'm alright.

 

[Oscarman]

Uncle Jeff Green has signed with the Wizards. Looks like Dwight is going there too.

 

[nahnah]

get our first look at Sexton in the summer league this weekend. We havent signed anyone yet. Couldnt be happier to see Jeff Green go, he took way too many threes for a guy that shoots sub 30%.



So far:
LeBron - Lakers
Green - Wizards
Calderon - Detroit

 

[nahnah]

We’ve signed Billy Preston to a two-way contract. He has 9 points in this summer league game so far.

Sexton showing promising signs but I think Wizards summer league team is horrendous

 

[The King!]

Really good podcast from local Cleveland show with the beat writers etc
Bull and fox 3 hours on the last 4 years

 

[nahnah]

Anyone else watch the game?

Osman - played fantastic defense, some very nice dimes but he shot awfully and took some questionable contested midrange shots

Sexton - played great defense, mid range game is very good, looked super quick and decent handles. Knows how to draw fouls but missed a lot at the rim.

Zizic - ready to start over TT. Showed great post moves and touch around the rim, strong on the boards and played great defense. Also had 5 assists. Destroyed Bryant.

Preston - weird player, has unicorn about him. 6’11 that brought the ball up the court and drove a lot... chucked a bit too much seems to have some range. Defense was ordinary. The type of boom or bust player you want on two-way contract.

Holland - scrub, only stat he recorded was 5 turnovers. The type of player you don’t want on a two way contract.

White - struggled but has been ok at NBA level in the past.

Scoochie Smith/Marcus Lee - I think one of these guys will make the roster. Smith looks like an ok 3rd string pg while Lee played decent.

 

[The King!]

Nah didn’t watch, but appreciate the insights

 

[nahnah]

Osman had a 14 hour flight yesterday after playing a WC qualifier (which he dominated) a few days ago, may explain his offensive struggles

 

[The King!]

Watched some highlights, promising from sexton imo, not that you can take much from summer league, but I like his enthusiasm

 

[The King!]

That lakers side just seems set up to try and get Lebron an mvp or two and enjoy retirement. Or am I just bitter

he plays with a lot of passion and intensity

theyre trying to buck the trend of relying on 3 point shooters, it will fail imo.
