Funny.people are complaining about Lebron getting Jr/Shump/Frye and Korver.But when these players were playing for their pre-cavalier teams,they were labeled as over the hill garbage ass losers.

For example:People say Deron Williams is injury prone,past his prime and not worth trading for.But if he got traded to the cavs,people on the coli would throw a hissy fit.
:wow::wow: Dualities.

Do you think they are bringing him in for well known lock down defense?

No, which is why I don't think they think they're getting as much as some of the people on here think.

The middle-road option is that this is as good a move as Channing Frye was last year. You add a more consistent shooter than what you have who can be inserted situationally, but will have a hard time staying on the court in the Finals. It gives you some depth and insurance, and if you're lucky it could be the difference-maker at the right time. Nice to have him in late-game offensive sets too - Kyrie-JR-Korver sounds a hell of a lot better when you need threes than Kyrie-JR-Shump.

There's a "chance" that he'll be a consistent contributor to the point of being a sixth man and really making a difference. At his peak he was an average defender. But he's 35-years-old now and his shot and movement hasn't looked as good the last two years. If he can't D, then he's not going to stay on the court long in tight games. Kyrie-Korver-Lebron-Love-TT is a unit that would get exploited badly on defense if Korver is :flabbynsick: status. Kyrie-JR-Korver-Lebron-TT might be better, but still would get beat up by some teams. It's probably going to be something more like Shump-Korver-Jefferson-Lebron-Frye giving them some sick offensive firepower against second units for short bursts.


p.s. - I guess Shump-Liggins/Jefferson-Korver-TT-Frye might work as a viable 2nd-unit without Lebron now. Korver gives the 2nd-unit more firepower potential than it's had, which could give Lebron more rest. But the ballhandling in that unit is still weak as hell unless they get a point guard too.

Warriors are still the favorites. Like Frye & Delly, Korver will barely see the floor in the Finals

I put the 3 pt lineup in, hes always the one that does the least amount of work on both ends, just purely a spot up shooter, and he cant even do that

Still didn't have the help Lebron has had :mjgrin:

Wake me up when Lebron has the best coach in the league on his bench.

Wake me up when Lebron has ONE teammate on 1st-team All-Defensive team, much less two.

Wake me up when there is a Cav on 2nd-team All-NBA, much less 1st-team All-NBA.

Wake me up when the best rebounder in the league and best three-point shooter in the league and best perimeter defender in the league and best big man shooter in the league are on Lebron's team simultaneously.

And that all happened in a diluted expansion era where everyone except the Bulls was weak as hell. There wasn't a team that every came close to matching the 1996-98 Bulls at 1 through 8.
