Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Did y'all see how Spida got in a defensive stance on that first possession after Lamar checked in?

It's almost like the players were looking for a spark.

I can't believe he's gonna get another year and I felt this EXACT same way last year when they brought him back after the total collapse.

Good lord what a fucking disaster that extension was.

When he goes, Koby needs to follow. Too many chances at finding a coach.

There was literally no need to give him the extension when he did. Our regular season collapse came shortly after that.
 
NY timeout. Cavs down 11 after 5 straight from Mitchell and LeVert.

Stevens in. I know he'll get rebounds and box out.

Randall out for the rest of the game with a sprained ankle.

Stevens before Okoro, are u kidding me

Yeah what the fuck!!! Okoro actually played solid D and scored but he’s sitting on the bench for an ineffective Allen?? For what?? Put Mobley on Robinson, Levert on toppin and garland on Hart with Mitchell on Barrett then Okoro locks up Brunson. How stubborn and idiotic is JB???

Because suddenly we have a few 20-ish level picks? Please. Go take a look at the last few drafts and who was selected between 20 and 28.

We used those 20ish level picks to trade for a star player.

Now imagine we use those same picks and trade for a different star player. One who fits better next to our small point guard.

And, more generally, just not a small shooting guard.

It's not a valuable position and not a valuable player profile, in the grand scheme.

I think if Koby loses his job, it will amazingly be because of this one short sighted decision.

He’s made some nice roster building moves but watching JBB try to navigate a series against a real NBA coach has been rough.

I’m not even sure what you do. Are we seriously willing to swallow that money a year later?

Seems doubtful to me.

And which star player(s) would you suggest trading for that a) would be available and b) wouldn't nix a trade coming to Cleveland?
