It's ironic because it doesn't fit his personality at all and, therefore, funny.
I honestly feel bad for how poorly we're paying him. $490,180 this season. $816,482 next season. Karasev got paid more this year alone than Delly does over two years, and he has been D-league bound the whole year. What's worse is that Bynum walked away with $6m for doing jack shit. I guess that's the price for going under the radar.
Lol, yeah. Right.
He should be grateful. We took a chance on him by keeping him going into the season. He had a very underwhelming summer league and was outplayed by a couple guys we cut simply due to numbers. The move more than paid off but he has simply repaid a favor the Cavs FO granted him. Nothing from summer league play suggested he could be a valuable rotation piece yet we looked past that and still gave him a roster spot.
He'll get his due though in time. Much deserved also.

I'm sure he is grateful, I suspect that his effort is simply part of who he is and what he is being paid to do - which makes us look at the others and say 'why ain't you doing what you get paid for?'. The potential downside to the above is that some may think that this gratefulness should last seasons ... he was given an opportunity and responded. He's repaid the FO and should be rewarded for his efforts and value to the team and organisation ... same goes for the rest. Perhaps there should be a base salary and a bonus system?
Probably a good thing the cavs didn't make the play offs. Don't need Delly pushing Indiana or Miami 7 games, and having a 'summer of me' on our hands with dellavedova demanding his contract be torn up.
It would be hilarious if he demanded a trade this summer. He has every right to do so too, with how his teammates have frequently failed to match his level of effort on the court.
