Battier and Ray Allen were valuable pieces in 2013 but hardly anything in 2014 playoffs.
Not saying he won't be quite useful but I'm fairly skeptical.

That skepticism is definitely fair.

Agreed, there is justification for being skeptical. However, I think adding a strong perimeter defender like Marion, in addition to his veteran presence, can be very beneficial for a young Cavaliers roster.lhslep134;1644985 wrote:That skepticism is definitely fair.

Sounds like the pacers were willing to pay him about 5x more than what Cleveland got him for. So I'll take that!

Looks like the wiggins/love trade is now a three team trade with the sixers so Minnesota can get thaddeus young.
The wolves are making out like bandits here. Unreal.

So are the wolves. They went from having nothing to having Wiggins, Bennet, and Young.SportsAndLady;1646679 wrote:Looks like the wiggins/love trade is now a three team trade with the sixers so Minnesota can get thaddeus young.

Well, technically the Sixers are, too, since their goal is to throw another season in order to try for the top pick again.SportsAndLady;1646682 wrote:Sorry, I actually meant the wolves are making out like bandits, not the sixers.

Love wont sign a long term deal with the Suns. I wouldn't sweat it. So what if hes traded to the Suns, we keep Wiggins and Love opts out at the end of next year. Im positive Love is coming to CLE. I don't see the Suns making that trade unless they know that Love is going to sign an extentsion.

I hope the Suns get Love. Much rather have Wiggins and Bennett.

The roster is sick. Add Jesus shuttlesworth and it's a monster lineup. Only thing rrally missing is a great big man. Andy will get hurt... Wonder I'd they could use his expiring deal to get some young big man around the deadline. Then again he may play really well playing alongside LBJ again.

Lebron was pretty adamant about varejao playing with him in Cleveland.Midstate01;1646866 wrote:The roster is sick. Add Jesus shuttlesworth and it's a monster lineup.

It sucks because you're right varejao will definitely get hurt, but we are kinda stuck with him.

Yea but regardless I think he's gone after this season. Doubt they'll wanna resign him to much money.

AV is a beast with Lebron. I hope he stays healthy but it's not likely.

Yeah I should have put in there that I am pumped for varejao when he's healthy. Him and Lebron, kyrie and Love will be amazing. Just sucks the guy is glass.Rotinaj;1646872 wrote:AV is a beast with Lebron. I hope he stays healthy but it's not likely.
