Why are we surprised?

We have needed a center for years now. We knew Love/Kyrie would struggle to marginal defenders, much less plus defenders.

Lebron is 30 years old now. We saw it with Kobe. The defense starts to tail off from the All-NBA level. One of the arguments for keeping Wiggins was that it would extend Lebron's career by giving him someone to chase around the other teams best player.

In many ways this is playing out exactly as it looked like it would on paper this summer.

We have no athletes. I am over these small fry non-athlete guards that have no length.

We have no center, no defensive enforcer, and no identity.

Let this be a lesson to all about the need to draft big when you're picking high in the draft.

Chris Grant is gone, but his odious legacy still lives with us every night we trot a line-up out there that doesn't include a difference making big.

Griffin, in his infiinite wisdom chose to double down on the "size makes no difference" mentality and did nothing in the off-season to address a predictably glaring need.

Andy was always out of position as a center, so while his injury hurt our front line depth it doesn't take away from the argument that even with him we needed a center.

I said in the game thread, Chicago was the luckiest team of all.

They struck out on the loser "superstars" (Melo & Love) and had to "settle" for Paul Gasol on a contract that pays him peanuts.

That was the kind of player we needed. A big that has actually won something in their career.

Love is literally starting to look like a poor man's Melo as far as just not being a winning player. Stuff's the sheet, but that's all.

We have too many of the low IQ, "losing" type players on our team. No heart and no guts. I am freaking tired of it.

Now that's a rant.
 
I thought I would have had a lot to say, but I am so disappointed with everything about this team right now that I can't really articulate anything.

This is what I feared most at this point. Balls.

That was mildly disappointing. The only thing I took from that is Grant needs to shave that hair on his chin.

FUCK. I'm out. Tear the fucking things out of my sockets now, Grant you FUCKED UP passing up on Drummond.

We're stuck with Dion, thanks mother fucker! Wow.

Off to drink.

They also fucked up passing on Olidipo.
 
lol on Drummond. Kid has never won and won't with the way he plays unless with major talent around him. A bunch of empty stats. There is a reason why the Pistons have sucked since he has been there as much as Waiters and Waiters made a far better effort last winter.

The Cavs don't care, they play half assed and it is because of Lebron and his "feelings" about Blatt. Don't kid yourself. This team isn't playing anything close to potential. IMO, it is why Blatt's firing is coming deserved or not unless Lebron "greenlights" him.
 
i feel i chose the wrong team to follow.. too much heartbreak.. but what can i do?? ive been hooked.. and somehow through the thick and mostly thin, i am still hopeful for cleveland and the cavs.. i just hope we catch a break.. soon..

one more thing..

i hate lbj.. hated him when he left, hated the idea of him returning and hated him more for coming back thinking he owns this team.. if he cant be a mature leader for this team, i wouldnt mind going through another 4 year rebuild and let him leave.. f*ck this guy!

end rant..
