Korver should play with Thompson as much as possible. Thompson's borderline illegal screens knock out Korver's man every time, forcing the defense to either give up an open Korver three or overreact to Korver thereby freeing up Thompson on the roll. Thompson is miles better than either Love or Frye as a screen setter.

Love never set a screen in his life.. He rolls before he even makes contact.
 
We've had a lot of great shooters on this team the last 3 years but korver is on a different level. He's great an all time great without lebron. With lebron he's a machine.

I hope jr comes back with enough time to get some chemistry with korver. They're gonna be incredible together.

Fire Lue
 
Kyle Korver is hungry

That white boy wants to win a ring for the white boys
 
Do you guys just can't wait till he checks in the game? he makes the viewing experience infinitely better. Should have been a Cav 3 years ago.
 
Korver makes our 4th quarter lineup scary, he may be average on defense but he works so hard on offense I give him the benefit. These opposing players look defeated after they're done chasing him and he splashes a 3.

I'm sure everyone else feels this way but I cannot wait to see:

Kyrie-JR-Korver-LeBron-Love

Ultimate supreme floor spacing and LeBron being the roll man...

That lineup would be best used with a lead, I don't see how you outshoot that or outscore them. Even TT inserted for Love gives Cavs a roll man plus defense.

Talk about a fucking death lineup.

You can't hide a single bad defender against that lineup. Whoever is guarding Korver is running around non-stop. Whoever is guarding LeBron has to, well, guard him. Whoever is guarding Kyrie has to, well, guard him. Whoever is guarding JR will either have to chase him or be switched onto LeBron after LeBron screens for him. Love's man has to stay outside with him.


Like, holy shit.

Basically any JR + Korver + LBJ lineup is going to be ridiculous. JR + LBJ are great perimeter defenders, and Korver is good enough to guard anybody's third offensive wing.

Want to lock down defensively?

Shumpert/JR/Korver/LBJ/TT - Run LBJ as point forward. Shumpert has decent floor gravity from 3PT range this season, let LBJ PnR with TT, and then hit the right shooter. On defense you can switch everything.

Want Crazy Offensive Spacing?

KI/JR/Korver/LBJ/Frye - Run KI/LBJ PnRs and the defense can't double off of anybody.

Want to Outrebound everybody?

JR/Korver/LBJ/Love/TT - LBJ at point forward again. Can run the LBJ/TT PnR or post up Love/TT against smaller bigs. Against the GS death lineup you probably have the three best rebounders on the court.

Rumor has it, they tried acquiring him back during the 1st LBJ run. I cant even imagine a young Lebron with a young Korver.

There is absolutely no way for anyone to defend that. I would hope Lue executes this. What I would like to see is Lebron at PG and Love at PF. Run the same action but make Lebron the decision maker.

From what I remember it would have costed us JR or shump. Not sure I'd do that.
