What's new

So glad we don’t have to deal with this anymore ……

They aren't going to get a rotation rookie, three picks, two swaps, and another freaking all star? Freaking bad economy. . .

And a top notch 6h man
 
I know almost nobody will agree with me, but I lowkey believe the Cavs made an even worse trade than the Wolves did.
This is a pretty wild statement that is getting a ton of likes. Minnesota couldn’t get 25% of what they traded for Gobert back for him.
 
That was shared like it was reporting lol it was purely his often wrong opinion

I'm pretty sure everybody is thinking the same thing, I don't think anyone around the league is expecting him to stay in Cleveland.
 
Trading for John Collins and re-signing Clarkson doesn’t exactly scream tank to me.
Correct me if i'm wrong but with the new CBA all teams have to spend up to the minimum amount right?

We could just be doing that, and the fact that we have Collins a few more years after next means we could still go for it in 2024/2025.

I still think we have too many youngins learning the ropes this next season to be doing real damage.

It will be watching Keyonte, Hendricks and Sensabaugh try and fail this year but we'll be average and peter out at the end of the season IMO.
 
Nor did they give up an all star who probably should have been all-NBA. . .
I think when evaluating the return you have to look at what he and Walker were when they got traded… not necessarily what they turned out to be. Both guys would get multiple firsts if they were traded right now… that was not the case last summer.

But imagine if Lauri has his glow up
In Cleveland… I think that team might be better than what Cleveland currently has… and all that draft capital… yikes.

I give a lot of credit of Lauri's glow up to Hardy and increased opportunity, but I think some major step up would have happened regardless.

Cleveland fumbled. It was hard to see in live action but became abundantly clear after replay.
 
A lot of it depends on Mobley. His second year he didn't show the development needed on offense. I think Don and Ant are similar offensive engines right now. If Ant takes a step and Rudy hangs on to his prime I think they have an easier route to potential contention. Minny's wings are solid... would also be nice if they hit a homerun on a KAT trade. I think Cleveland is boxed in a bit... if Don committed they could crush it in a Garland deal but kinda have to stick with the small backcourt cuz if Don bails then Garland is beyond critical.

Both teams pushed in at weird times with weird moves... glad we benefitted.

Minny contending? For what?
