Tristan had his chance to outplay Draymond and couldn't do it :yeshrug:

Dude scored like 4 points the first two games as well.

Mozgov/JR were more important in the regular season.

I could see if he was an elite defender/shot blocker.

But being a great offensive rebounder doesn't get you 19 mil a year. I don't care how cool you're with LeBron.

5yr/94 mil is insanity.
It is but they have no choice really.

Lowkey, making finals was the worst thing to happen to this team lol. Kyrie and Love didnt really get any finals experience. TT got an ego and Lebron got another L on his finals record. nikkas shouldve just lost to the Bulls so they can get swept lmao.

But Cavs gotta pay this nikka or they have no backup PF. I could see if they got David west, but they didnt.

He isnt worth it but you rather lose him for nothing? And hes young. He can develop. You never know.

He is NOT worth the money, but the Cavs have nobody to replace him. And they cant get anyone either. They already over the cap.

Not only that but Lebron likes TT a lot. You lose him and the "Cavs have a shytty FO" and "Lebron is unhappy with Cavs" posts start popping up again.
You can't pay everybody it's all about the big three the other pieces are interchangeable. 94 mil for a back up power forward is outrageous.

he's a backup power forward/center. Tristan Thompson is not irreplaceable.

TT is not interchangeable.

They cant sign free agents. They have no cap. If TT leaves, they have no backup PF. How is that changeable?

Not when you don't have a draft pick and you don't have cap room dollars available.

:krs:
Exactly.

At this point, the Cavs team can ONLY get worse. They have no cap or draft picks. I dont see why this is so hard for people to understand

You arent winning against the Warriors/Spurs/OKC with just that big 3.

You guys can say "TT is replaceable", but how? How exactly are they going to replace him?

I figure we can use the Haywood exception to get a good 2/3 and the Miller exception for a 4/5.

About time we got someone back we drafted then traded while they were young. Hopefully he takes Joe Harris spot.
