My favorite part of your response is how you imply YOUR opinions are facts.
- bulls were fine without rose this year
Yes, but they didn't get out if the first round without him. And there is a chance he won't be 100% until the 2013-14 season.
- ak47 will get more money elsewhere
Maybe. If money is #1 then we might not get him. We can go for other options here. I would be fine with Gee and Taylor at SF, both defend, both can hit an open three--Taylor would be an "older" rookie.
- that team can't "win and win big"
Another great opinion disguised as a fact. Tell me o wise one, why that team can't win. Great D, lots of shooters, play makers, and depth. Basically Rondo and KG took the Heat to 7 without much other help (Pierce was awful). I think Irving and KG would be better--and the rest of the team I put together is better also.
- kg will be offered contracts by teams that actually can "win and win big"
I did say this was a pipe dream..but KG did play in Minnesota, so I would think if he could win--the city might not matter as much to him. And we would be one of the best fits for him. Name a few of these teams that "can win big", that actually have the cap space. We can offer him quite a bit of money on a short contract. And he would get to play with an elite PG that can shoot it. A KG/Irving pick and roll would be even deadlier than a KG/Rondo pick and roll.
- positional "matchups" don't matter, heat would crush
Another awesome opinion--way to state your case. Having good players doesn't matter, Cavs would crush--see what I did there.
- having so many rookies/sophmores doesn't bode well for winning
We wouldn't be asking the rookies to do a ton of lifting and only one of the sophomores would be asked to do the heavy lifting and he is the one capable of doing it. This is a team built with both savy vets and young guys---and that would be on purpose--I want those young guys to learn from players like AV,KG, etc
- cavs need another lottery pick (higher the better) next year for long-term success
Your opinion again. I do not agree with this.
Absolutely, life is short..why fuck around being average when you don't have to be. A team can be built many many many different ways. OKC would be the first team in a very long time to win primarily through lottery picks in the draft--and they still made some trades along the way and got very lucky with the Oden/Durant choice.
You don't even need to reply, I already know you want 20 top 5 picks on the same team. Small markets sucks. Can only build through draft..blah blah, same story different day. Forums are a place to throw random stuff out to discuss.
Why would KG NOT want to come here? Why would he be a bad fit? I personally think he would be a perfect fit with AV and TT and Kyrie. He showed this year he still has gas in the tank--especially if you rest him during the year.
For those of you that think we will suck next year...even if we don't sign any free agents, we are going to replace the sieve at PF with one that can actually play some D. The shots that the "jump shooter" put up will now go to others who will most likely make a higher percentage of said shots. We are probably going to replace Parker's corpse with a top 5 pick in Beal. TT and Irving will actually have a training camp and a full year under their belts. They are going to be a much improved team.
