I'm disagreeing without marking your post with a disagree.
What does "a" mean? How so?
I get what you mean by "b", but we have to start somewhere. Why not now?
I'd call Delly our backup PG. Most teams would love to have him. In the playoffs the starters will get more minutes. I can see Thompson and Moz on the floor quite often.
I'd say Kyrie has grown quite nicely and will be a main reason we win this year.
I have no idea what "e" even means.
You can mark 'disagree', it's ok... I wont hold it against you...
By 'better' I mean more ready, have more assets, are more experienced, and mainly play a better style, at least IMO.
We're gelling nicely, and we'll make a nice run, but I don't think the guys are battle experienced enough together, as a team. The scars aren't there yet, the revenge isnt in place yet, it would be surprising if they show signs of worthiness without losing first. It's nature...
I love Delly, dont get me wrong, but he's not good enough. Plain and simple. There are better backup PGs out there. Lots of 'em.
Thompson, Mozgov and Love is 3. You need 4. And it's not gonna be Perkins or Hayward. It could be Andy, but he's got to be healthy... that's too risky.
Kyrie is wonderful. But he's not yet a 'superstar'. Not in my mind, or yours, or the media's or LeBron's, or even his own. Next year, he will be.
E means that LeBron doesnt yet trust everyone. Not his mates, not the coach, and not the culture. He will come around though. It's what going to battle does to people, even if it's a LeBron
