never in nba history has a dude who just came off a seson averaging 30 in his prime has been asked to come off the bench once healthy and ready to play. He trying to get 200Ms
I know, I'm just saying that he HAS thrived off the bench before. Also, what if Rose is playing well, like all star level? How do you justify sitting him?

You still aren't reading properly.

JR is the better option to start because he provides shooting, and spaces the floor, and can still play defense here and there, which is what the Cavs need more than what Wade offers. Especially since Wade and Rose are more or less the same player.
I think there's an understanding how the minutes will be allocated. I hope Wade doesn't expect to start come April.

Cavs won 51 games last year. Do you think they'll be worse?

cavs would've won 60+ plus but lebron rest and often times is in chill mode

He needs to treat this year as his last year and go for HCA in the playoffs. They will lose to the warriors with HCA in 6 games instead of 5 without HCA

I'm not saying it won't be an improvement, I'm just saying it's going to limit what they can do on offense/defense. Having Rose/Wade out there together is hustling backwards - neither of them can shoot and neither of them can defend (although I do hope Rose upps his defensive activity this season), and both of them basically have identical styles of play.

Y’all forget Korver had 25 minutes per game which helps with spacing but admittedly is a liability on defense. But they also still have crowder and shump for the time being.
