Cavs acquire Sam Dekker (Official)

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Dekker is a 1980s small forward. I remember being so confused when Lenny Wilkens would start Mike Sanders. Here's a guy who doesn't really shoot, doesn't really rebound, doesn't really handle the ball... He is just kind of running around out there being not Craig Ehlo or Hot Rod.

Speaking of the late 1980s and small forwards, here's Cleveland's own Scott Roth for no reason at all:

If you didn't go to Scott Roth's Basketball Skills Camp in the Cleveland area, you had no future. And if you didn't attend Scott Roth's Basketball Skills Camp, you begged your buddy to steal you an extra tee shirt so you could tell people you were there.
 
Let's get back to the important issue, he's white. From following tOSU football recruiting for at least 40 years, I'm of the opinion that in general, some black guys mature way faster than most white guys.

Over the years I've seen hundreds of photos of 16 and 17 year old recruits with wash boards for stomachs, muscles on their muscles, and in some cases full beards. Not too many who were white. This is why I give guys like Dekker or Zizic a year or two before I pass judgement.

I think Dekker should be at least as good a rotation player a Tyler Zeller. I know that's not great but he may stick. That's my two cents.

Just gonna skip right past the first two paragraphs and say Tyler Zeller sucks monkey ass, so the bar you've set for Dekker is more than reachable.

I heard good ol Scotty got a new coaching gig in the G- League in Iowa. Happy for him to get the opportunity. I know he's actually got a few years under his belt as an NBA assistant coach as well IIRC.

Be still my heart....I remember defending him in this picture..

In fact we weren’t even playing basketball— we used a weather green screen at the local news station which was behind a golf course that Trent Tucker was using in Minnetonka...

Looks like we’re playing ball there but we’re actually doing a train dance... He’s not holding a ball— he’s holding Brad Lohaus’ ass...

There's one and only one tell that this is a fabrication. Brad Lohaus had no ass. His torso skipped it and went straight to legs.

What really happened is that Scott Roth was dropping crisp chest passes out of the triple threat position until Phil Jackson couldn't take it anymore.

Damnit, Keys.. Nothing gets by you...

Bounced that one between my legs to a cutting Tyrone Corbin...Lost the DPOY to Rodman due to this bullshit...

The Cleveland Cavaliers have acquired forward Sam Dekker from the Los Angeles Clippers, Cavaliers General Manager Koby Altman announced today from Cleveland Clinic Courts. In exchange, Cleveland will send the draft rights to Vladimir Veremeenko to the Clippers. The Cavaliers will also receive the draft rights to Renaldas Seibutis and cash considerations from Los Angeles
So the Cavs got paid cash money to take an SF that was marginally better than 4 of the top 5 free agents left on the market that play his position. Probably better than signing a d-league guy.

I wonder if that means that the Cavs also receive Olivia Harlan as a sideline reporter :conf (11):
