Iman Shumpert

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Those ratings probably ran him off honestly. Some people don't react well to one negative rating, let alone 15 "dumb" ratings :chuckle:.

I think he's had like 2 accounts banned. There was Eugb23 after this one, I'm fairly certain. He might still be around on another account.

So he's an ass that got ridiculed in this thread probably because of his past behavior. I thought it was a little out of character of RCF to just randomly beat up on a guy.

Fuck 'em then.
 
Shumpert is the perfect complement for this team and Dion is the opposite.. Would do the trade in a heartbeat....
 
Iman Shumpert would immediately become our best perimeter defender BY A MILE AND HE IS A MUCH BETTER CATCH AND SHOOT player than Dion... He also can play the one, two or three.. Shumpert is the perfect complement for this team and Dion is the opposite.. Would do the trade in a heartbeat....

I still wait for those who rated this dumb to come and explain themselves

I wasn't on here frequently back then . . . but I went back and tagged that thing "winner," 'cause it ain't getting beat in the foreseeable future. (Unlike my dog, who just shat on the carpet again.)

Perhaps, but it was neither Dion's first year with the Cavs, nor was Shumpert an unknown. Entirely reasonable for someone to base their suitability for the Cavs on their prior performance.

A week into the season with like 13 new players...I think we all wanted to give it a bit more time...revisionists can say what they want, but if he says this when we're 19-20 a few months into the season, he gets a different reaction...didn't help that he put this in Cavs Talk initially too.

Even before the beginning of last season, before he had played a single game with LBJ, etc., there was a pretty strong split on Dion. Plenty of people thought that he basically sucked, and that his game and attitude would not mesh well at all with that group. They didn't want to give him "more time", because they though more time would just further expose him.

That's not after the fact revisionism - it's what a lot of people said openly before the season even began. And I remember some people saying even the year before last that they'd do a Dion for Shumpert deal. I didn't agree because I undervalued Shumpert, but they were right, even if most of the rest of us didn't see it at the time.

Just because some people had a higher opinion of Dion and thought he'd be better doesn't mean others were unreasonable for speculating to the contrary. And as things turned out, they were right.

Yeah, I'm not talking about the turmoil Dion faced in his years here, that's obvious and doesn't need to be brought up anymore.

I'm talking about the issue of the poster saying this when he said it and where he said it...I don't mean revisionists with Dion, I mean with this post...when this was initially posted, it wasn't the right time, hence all the "Dumb" ratings. After all, I initially replied to someone wondering why the original post got so many Dumbs.

Thx pal i didn't know that though its a reasonable comment and i still don't get why it should've been rated dumb because of the time he posted it but still its okay. I guess the guys wanted to give Dion some time with Bron. Anyway thank God, things turned out pretty well for us with the Shump and Jr trade
