Welcome Shawn Marion #31

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Fantastic get for this roster. He was a huge part of Dallas' success when he was there. Can do a little of everything and still plays excellent D.

What a summer...
 
Really?? You have Love @ PF and Lebron @ SF. I hope he's part of a trade to bring us a center.

Exactly. IF Tristan is going to get any minutes its at Center, which isn't ideal. But Marion will be backing Love. Behind LeBron and Miller at the 3 Marion would have to get minutes at the 4.

And the great thing about Marion is that you can play him at the 3 or 4, allowing Lebron that freedom to take advantage of mismatches at the 3 and 4 as well. There also may be the back to back games where a player or 2 completely sits one end of the back to back out, just to keep their legs the entire season. I can see Miller and Allen benefitting from that, even Marion as well. Very deep and versatile roster.

Only depressing thing about this signing is now I have to master that quirky ass release in NBA2K15. :)
 
Sure Skip, Love Thompson and Varejao will start together :weirdo:

kyrie lebron Thompson love varejao is going to be our starting lineup according to skip.:chuckles:

Who's going to be playing small forward varejao or love?

It's amazing he gets paid to do this. Absolutely amazing. The guy hasn't got a clue.
 
see the type of bullshit Dion has to deal with the national media..... Lebron loses some wait so now he is gonna start at shooting guard? WTF. MArions didnt give up friggin 9 million.. I could see at the most he could of signed with someone for 3 to 4 million at the most and thats not an attractive team he would be going to.

neither one of these guys needed to versell their viewpoint.. they chose to anyways,

Marion wasnt brought in to start. get a grip. Haywoods out for the year.

and theSpurs arent evn the best roster in their division.. Best team perhaps but not the best roster.

Skip still uses this absurd "Batman/Robin-analogy".
And James, of course, is still "Robin". :chuckles:
 
I think if the Cavs can utilize Miami's trap defensive scheme, it'll be enough to take them to the level they need to be with or without the addition of a back up defensive C. LeBron knows that defensive scheme inside and out, and it was mostly about excessive effort and being able to recover on time to play help-side defense. Every teams have weaknesses, and the Heat defense were only good for two years. If the Cavs plays hard enough on the defensive end, the need for an interior defensive big won't really matter that much this season. The few weaknesses that Miami had were, they had the tendency to gave up open 3's and couldn't secure defensive rebounding. I think we can safely say that the Cavs will be 100x better at rebounding the ball and securing possessions than the Heat ever were in the last four years.
 
I'm so fucking sick of hearing about the Spurs. Yeah, they're the champs, but let's stop acting like they've been unbeatable the last few years.
