Year 3 would have been Harden's rookie year, correct?

Must be a coincidence they started winning more games when harden came aboard. Definitely has nothing to do with his abilities because he is terrible.

Correlation does not equal causation. Harden has still never made an all-star game and he's never won a championship.

He's having a "good" season by chucking the ball up a lot. To the average fan, he's an "all-star". To the careful eye, he's an overpaid fraud who will never win a championship.

Also Waiters IMO has been solid. He's inconsistent sure but has also hit the rookie wall at this point IMO. With Kyrie out he was solid. I think he's a good pick. I wanted Lamb, so far I've been wrong.
I highly doubt Waiters hit the rookie wall after 7 games.

I think there was an article or a quote about him hitting a wall after 7 games or something. I remember something about it.

It was sarcasm. He shot 28% over the 10 game stretch from game #8 to when he got injured, and then shot 34% in December after coming back. So he must have hit the rookie wall before game 8, because that's when his play dropped off.

Rumors floating about a trade. Boobie/Walton - Richard Jefferson

Also heard Cavs may be interested in signing Greg Oden as he attempts to make a return to the league.



Thoughts on either or both?

Ill believe either happen when I see it. However, if another trade is made, I am positive it will include Boobie and Walton.

i assume another pick would be coming the cavs way if they were to do that trade with gs? would be all about it, if that is the case.

Has there been other sources reporting Boobie/Walton for Richard Jefferson/1st Rd pick? I know RealCavsFans twitter account was holding a contest to see who could submit the most realistic trade scenario for Boobie and that's the one they selected.

Kyrie is such a fucking beast. I can't wait until we get some better talent around him.
