Chauncey Billups can't play anymore. I'd only want him in a coaching role or in the FO.

There has to be another center coming. We keep adding wings without even looking at a center. Something in that trade has to be sending us a C. Unless they really want TT at Center in spots.

Rather have Marion and it's not even close really. Ray is barely a decent backup at this point.

The Matrix as a solid role player/defensive stopper and Billups as an extra coach on the bench who can come in every so often and make a big shot or two would be incredible for this team.

What an offseason the Cavs have had, Historic. I am so pumped for this coming season it's ridiculous.

Unless we're getting Dieng I really think TT playing C in spots is in the plan.

This... Love and Marion will handle the four. LeBron could slide there as well even with the weight loss.

So the next best option for the Pacers is Michael Beasley. :chuckles:

Unless they plan on only playing him 12-15 minutes per game behind Love(and a Marion addition would eat into a few of those minutes), they almost have to be planning on giving him some legit center minutes. Normally that would concern me, but with the extreme talent that will be on the court at around him and the very specific role he will have(no plays called, all hustle, all rebounding, all defense) I believe that he could do well at both PF and C this year.

But yes, to join in with the chorus, it would be nice to add a rim protector to the mix as well. Think we may have to wait till next offseason to add an impact one though.

The super small ball 3 pointer line up of Kyrie Miller Marion LeBron Love has me foaming at the mouth. So many points to be scored.

Except that lineup really isn't that small. 4 of the 5 guys are 6'7 or taller.

David Griffin came here to chew bubble gum and give out vet min contracts.


And he's all outta bubble gum.
