Probably not. Be able to bring him in a little cheaper when he clears waivers.....if they even go in that direction.SportsAndLady;1693121 wrote:Why didn't the cavs have him thrown into the trade? Did they just not want him?

If what I read is true, the Knicks released him to have an open roster spot for a trade.

Beating a dead horse but Dellevadova does not belong in an NBA rotation, the more minutes he plays the more you can see how much of a detriment he is and how limited he is.

Totally on your side now. Hopefully the addition of Shumpert and Smith takes a serious hit to his minutes.robj55;1693138 wrote:Beating a dead horse but Dellevadova does not belong in an NBA rotation, the more minutes he plays the more you can see how much of a detriment he is and how limited he is.

It's nothing against him, he plays hard but is just very limited. If you look around at the other back up point guards in the league he has to be the worst. He is a third string guard based on talent and ability.Pick6;1693142 wrote:Totally on your side now. Hopefully the addition of Shumpert and Smith takes a serious hit to his minutes.

I'm OK with the trade. I guess they wanted Shumpurt and were willing to take Smith to do it. Hopefully they can turn the 1st from OKC and other assets into a big man.

Don't care how many players are out of action...it is a sorry, sorry state of affairs having Dellavedova on the floor at all...let alone crunch time.

Anyone remember when Pollard blatantly looked at the camera during a media timeout (not sure if it was live at that moment though) and said "Hey kids, do drugs." What a douchebag.

Read on a post that was made as a joke on another forum, that this deal was done with LeBron's approval as a way for the Knicks to create cap space to sign him in the offseason. Hope the media doesn't run with that idea like they did last week about him leaving town in the offseason.

I kind of think Blatt's in over his head. When he was brought in, it was to coach/mold all of these youngs guys (Kyrie, Waiters, Wiggins, etc). He could've had a shitty season while these guys learned his system. Then, LBJ surprisingly decides to return, they make the blockbuster for K-Love, and Blatt's dealing with a "win now" roster.Ironman92;1693140 wrote:Without 2 stars they are basically last year's team
I don't solely cast the blame on Blatt but I don't think he was quite ready for this. I think he's used to coaching underdogs.

I don't have proof and no one does, but Gilbert and the FO had to know Lebron was coming in a lot sooner then when they hired blatt.BR1986FB;1693197 wrote:I kind of think Blatt's in over his head.

I still don't think Blatt's ready. I'm not advocating firing him because it's too soon. If Gilbert cuts the cord on him this early, the Cavs are going to look as dysfunctional as the Browns (3 coaches in 3 years with Mike Brown still getting paid).SportsAndLady;1693199 wrote:I don't have proof and no one does, but Gilbert and the FO had to know Lebron was coming in a lot sooner then when they hired blatt.
