Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
They'd still have draft picks and Haywood's contract..

The three all star thing still works especially with bron the reason it faded with the heat was because 2 of the 3 were past their prime that won't be a problem in Cleveland.

People are overreacting to the spurs..they are anamoly you usually don't win titles because of depth and bench players it's still about your best few players..


Late draft picks.....

Bosh isn't past his prime, it faded with the Heat because their role players got old and they couldn't defend like before. Also, they didn't have the money to replace them with quality players, they kept having to scrape the bottom of the barrel to find people, yeah they lucked up with Allen, Battier and Andersen but Beasley, Curry, Oden, Dampier, House, Stackhouse, Zydrunas were all failures.

Just look at what they signed this offseason McRoberts who is solid, and Granger who is done. And it's not an anomaly, the two times the Heat lost in the finals it was to teams with depth and shooters :yeshrug: The Bulls are looking like a poor mans version of the Spurs now with Gasol & McBuckets, if Rose comes back I don't see how a Kyrie/Bron/Love trio will get by them.

you are ignoring the salary cap.



Embiid with LeBron and Irving doe :whew:

:dwillhuh:
What do mean ignoring the salary cap?

They gonna go after a max player big man next free agency REGARDLESS (assuming they haven't already traded for love)

Not trading away Wiggens who will be playing on his rookie deal for years is a HUGE plus when it comes to cap space. Especially if he can become a solid threat on both sides of the floor.

I'm not convinced that Kevin love is some team transformative talent. His stat sheet looks good, but I don't see him going to any team and totally changing their outcome. If he was that good the timberwolves would have had a better record the last couple years. :manny:


:blessed: The truth

There demise though was really because of wades fall which forced bron to have to go balls to the wall the whole season

Bron had to carry the whole team again and with that said they made the finals and played the only team in the NBA thAt would beat them in a series

That's how good bron is and if u put him with young a star level players theirs contending g regardless of who their 8th and 9th men are

I agree but you don't need him to be a transformative talent when he's playing with bron just be an all star caliber player

Lebron made the finals with a broken down wade and Horace bosh and a nbdl team in Cleveland he can get to the finals with kyrie and love

Brehsident evil
Ironically
Mcbob would have fit just right with the cavs..
S
Solid enough stretch 4 to help run offense when lebrom is off the floor...

But I don't think the cavs needs a star.. They need someone willing to dive for balls..pause...Battier style

They would basically be a lesser version of the MIA big 3 as you would only have one two way guy and the same problems (injuries for Kyrie, no resistance inside from Love). I think people get so caught up in the idea of a "superteam :krs:" and they don't really think about what actually takes place on the floor. If Wiggins can come close to his potential and Kyrie can stay reasonably healthy and the other pieces they have can be serviceable they put themselves in position to either have a really deep squad with 3 stars at the top OR have a lot of talent they can flip with 3 stars at the top. Much better position than being a poor man's MIA. If Love was a Duncanesque type guy then that is one thing but he's basically an elite rebounding version of Bosh minus the pick and roll D.

Depth wins. Irving/Wiggins/Waiters/Lebron/Thompson/Bennett/Dellevedova/Varejao is a deep team.

Might not win this year, but in 1-2 years look out.
