Instead of getting younger the Cavs are getting older and adding more injury prone players.....
Lucky for them the East is weak but still.......
-
A back court of IT and Wade? With Rose and Calderon as backups? And they wanna trade their only gaurd that is slightly above average on defense?
If this happens it means Bron clearly gave up on competing this season.
Jeamoons gonna be the only person that has any hope this season. -
I think Dwade could really help contending teams if he accepts a bench role.
If OKC gets wade without giving anyone up and Wade plays off the bench, it would be a huge boost.
Same with him on the Spurs.
Wade as a starter on a contender though? Hes gonna hurt more than he helps -
wade has gotten older and isnt remotely as good as he was on either end of the floor anymore so its going to be hard to justify playing him next to lebron because even when wade was still in his prime the best miami lineups largely included lebron + 4 shooters and no wade (especially towards the end)
he will probably be a decent ball handler to run the second unit i guess but if hes starting hes going to be just another player getting in lebrons way
wade should just accept coming off the bench
would be the perfect role for him at this point of his career (same for d rose) -
Somebody give my man deron williams a job

i get the sentimental factor of returning to miami
but miami will always be there
wade going to play with bron
i dont see it going any other way -
The East is so bad the Knicks might sneak in as a 7th or 8th seed and get swept in the first round.
Not saying itll happen. Just saying there is a decent chance itll happen.
I prefer to get another top 5 pick though. At the same time, I want KP to play important games late in the season where every game matters and force him to elevate his game. -
im fine mentally for the season now that wade is gone
i woulda been ? every game he played
just wanna see how guys develop
excuse time for hoiberg should be over as well too
time to see if he can actually coach and develop players
the locker room is undoubtedly his now
first time in 3 years
any takeaway about this roster/hoiberg can be a positive because you have direction now — if all they figure out is two guys on the roster can play, fred stinks and they get the #1 pick GREAT — the bar is at the lowest of low now — this rebuild needs to take however long it needs to take to get a star and develop an athletic/multidimensional roster — nothing less — no more players who do one thing and barely do that and do nothing else -
And nah, Melo not being on the Knicks is not gonna affect their win/loss totals.
Not saying Melo is not a good player though. I actually think if everyone buys in, Melo will be very very effective on OKC.
But Melo as the #1 option on a young team that wants to run was not moving the needle.

Im dying how Knicks fans and Bulls fans are in here breathing sighs of relief.

more than any positional need the bulls needed a direction
mediocrity is worse than being bad in the nba and will be until the lottery changes
chicago window was slammed shut april 28, 2012 and it will probably be a long time until it opens again
thats life in the nba when you dont have one (or more) superstars -

Replace the word bulls with knicks and this is a post I coulda made. So yea, I feel where Bulls fans are coming from. -
parker says he'll be ready by the end of november(gotta get in basketball shape) -
I wouldn't rush if I was TP
Let patty eat man -
First off if y'all think D Wade would start over JR or Korver once IT get back y'all dumb as hell....He coming off that bench...and if y'all think it makes us worse to cut Richard Jefferson to sign D Wade Then so be it..
To me it would make more sense for D-Wade to go to OKC but either way it's the same thing every week.....
Cleveland's name gets brought up in rumors and ? get scared, start jumping to conclusions and saying stupid...whenever my team makes a move I don't have to ever think about the worst case scenarios...all I have to do is come in this thread.

LeBron James on Kyrie Irving: "I was ready to give him the keys...I tried to help him be as good as he could be...I don't have any advice for him now, you're either with us or against us...it was a gratifying three years together." He said he hasn't communicated with Irving since trade.
He was ready to let kyrie be the man of the house when he leaves, but kyrie said ? you.

I been dealing with some pretty serious family issues so I aint been on the IC but wow. What a difference a year makes. I never thought we'd have a big 3 in OKC ever again especially after KD has done nothing but trash the organization since leaving but here we are and now we knocking on ? D WADE door? sheesh
whether he pulls Wade or not, Presti is Executive of the Year. Hands down...
what a time to be alive... -
Scott Kushner: There’s no timetable on Omer Asik. He’s been out since Feb. 10 since travelling to Mexico over the All Star break.
Scott Kushner: Dell Demps confirmed Solomon Hill tore his hamstring while playing pickup and could be back as soon as Feb.
Earl K. Sneed: Rick Carlisle on Nerlens Noel: “There’s a very good chance that Nerlens will come off the bench, and he’s OK with that.” -
