There is a reason you stockpile assets (picks, players with specific contracts). It is to deal them. If you don't deal them, you never improve. The Cavs did not give up too much for possible rentals. They gave up assets they were stockpiling (and not even many of them, at that) in order to make the playoffs.
This loser mentality has to stop.
No. I've given a lot of specific reasons I'm against the deal.
You, however, seem to be hanging your arguments on "we need to win" w/o actually explaining how Hawes helps do that and "2nd rounders aren't that important." That's just blind faith.
Mention of Pacers trade?
I have no argument. I wasn't making an argument. I made a statement, which happens to be true. You stockpile assets and then use those assets to acquire talent who you feel will help you make the postseason.
The loser mentality is, hey, the Cavs should tank. That's a loser mentality. We tanked for a couple years. It's time to grow up and play basketball.
Poor trolling. -1 point for Gryffindor
