Other than the cap situation with TT, JR, and others, the Cavs also won't and can't fire Lue because then they'd be paying for a third coach to not be with them. They are shopping JR though, so I guess they want to improve...

He should waive it for a sneaky double-backstab where he comes back to CLE after they get like 4 draft picks for renting him for 4 months.

Also, Isiah Thomas the older is one of the best examples of how being good at a sport bears almost no correlation to knowing anything about said sport. Couldn't even run a WNBA team.

Thanks mate, coming from the king of analysis (aggressive one liners with no back up, and claims you never follow through on) that means a lot!

characterizing IT as an inefficient scorer and then backing up that characterization with 13 games worth of data with 0 pre-season games of prep is absurd.

topic done.

They should trade LBJ, this is the perfect excuse to blow it up. Get something back to start the rebuild and LBJ would do it since he wouldn't be the bad guy he got traded.


That just lets LeBron play the "I was going to re-sign" card and Cleveland's front office takes all the blame for the next 20 years of sucking

I have a theory that Dan Gilbert is content with the 1 championship he has and realizes he isn't going to beat the Warriors anyway so he is tired of having the most expensive roster that can't win a championship. I don't think he's going allow the Brooklyn pick to move and I think he's at peace with LeBron leaving because he wants to cut his salary costs and start rebulding with cheaper/rookie contracts. I think Ty Lue's job is safe because he still has $20M+ left on his contract and he doesn't want to pay that and hire another coach.

Pretty much. That 2016 Kyrie-led championship is a rare unobtainium and Gilbert is happy with it. He wants this season to be over with and unload all the shit that LBJ brought to the team. He just wants to move on and rebuild anew.

That was his superstar season. It's valid to use it as a metric to evaluate his value now, given the trade he was involved in.

That is true. A lot of these guys are willing to buy one championship for their ego but there is going to be a limit to how much money they are willing to lose to chase it. I seem to remember the Cavs being one of the few NBA teams to actually lose money that year they won the championship.

Aaron Gordon withdrew from the AS Dunk contest, to be replaced by... DONOVAN MITCHELL!!!

Yes!

Kinda feel bad for Gordon, he faced one of the best and smoothest dunkers and this could have been his revenge tour.

Yes. And to rid themselves of all the Lebron baggage.
