Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Yogi Fucking Farrell. Eating our fucking lunch. What kind of parallel universe IS this?
 
THIS GUY KICKED OUR ASSES

It's a game thread so I'll just say it

For all the immense praise Griffin gets you'd think we'd see a better product with LBJ playing 38 minutes a game when we're spending into record status

I think he's missed in the vet minimum market, but that's fixable.

Id say, right now, the Channing Frye trade has been the worst. Wish we could take that one back.
 
They got some explaining to do, or just own up and say WE FUCKING SUCK.

I think the trade was good. Considering what we got him for. Also, Channing was huge last season in the Detroit and Hawks series but this season he is like a traffic cone out here. We need to move him and get back-up PG/wing/Center.
 
He's already paying the most money of any NBA owner has ever payed. This on the players as well.

I don't disagree. I've openly questioned LeBron's effort for two weeks now.

But then I see a guy like Yogi Ferrell playing really well and wonder how the Cavs can't sign a guy like him to a ten-day with open roster spots. And from a player's perspective, you see the team not fill Delly's spot. Not fill Timo's spot. You lose Birdman and Mo to season ending injuries (yeah, Mo is to blame there, still). Then you see JR go down, now Love. I can understand if the players are frustrated.


Now, all that being said, if Kyrie is going to shoot 7-21, and he, Shump and LeBron are going to combine to go 3-17 from three, you're going to have a hard time winning down two starters.

Frye was a great pick-up and was HUGE for us in the playoffs pre-GS last year and his contract is very reasonable.

Frye cannot be your only bench big. That is a flaw that is not Frye's fault, that is all roster composition. They settled for using fat Birdman as insurance and then he tore his ACL.

We miss Mozgov, we weren't keeping him at that price, but we ignored the important of front court depth during the regular season.
 
I wish they never traded for Korver, it wasnt a necessary trade and it has thrown this team all off. This team has holes and a shooter that plays bad defense wasn't one of them.

Edit: I don't think Korver is the problem. I just think the trade has messed with the mindset of LBJ. Using one of two remaining assets for a trade that didn't address a hole seems to really annoy LBJ

This is one of those things I think Lebron is annoyed about too. Everytime a cheap player the Cavs could have gotten in the offseason or now goes off against us, LBJs effort goes down the drain.

They ignored alot of shit. Cocky attitude after a championship run and trusting their thinking on McRae, Kay, Liggs...
