I find it interesting I keep hearing people say we have depth now. Last time I checked Rose and Wade are two of the most injury prone players in the NBA- you just CANNOT bank on them these days. The new Euro guys have proven nothing. Frye and RJ have obviously all their best years behind them. Shump is a non factor, he gets injured in pre-season games. JR is hit or miss. IT is injured, and how do we know that he will ever be the same again-- or that he won't go out there one game and re-injure his hip? Tristan can't hack it against our most important opponent and has been benched. Korver has proven he can't hit the big shot. Jeff Green has NEVER lived up to his potential, why people think he all the sudden will is humorous at best.
Leave out LBJ, Love, and Crowder, and this team is kind of a mess. I believe we need one more big move on the trade block. Someone we can trust to handle the ball when Lebron isn't, that won't break his knees or hip jogging down the court.
Sorry for being realistic. *Awaits the disagrees *
You are not being realistic, you are being a pessimist.
There is no reason to think Wade or Rose are going to get injured if we manage their minutes properly.. yes, they might sit out a few games here and there if needed, but who cares?
Cavs are very deep, but Ty needs to put the right lineups on the floor.
Our bench production was abysmal, even when Kyrie/Love/LBJ shared the floor with the 2nd unit. I believe that even without one of James/Love our bench will be able to hold leads or even extend them..
Once IT comes back, our 2nd lineup whether you want to include either Love/Lebron in it is going to be filthy.
