They made a movie about Delly for Christ's sake. In 2 years, his "fame" will be right up there with a Dexy's Midnight Runners album.

I would take Craft over Delly.

Yeah, because his 3-point shooting would really improve our floor spacing for LeBron, Kyrie, and Mozgov :RpS_lol:

Yeah; it's a pointless discussion. I'd rather just have a team full of LBJs.

From what I've seen of Craft in summer league his shot has improved 100x. He no longer has that ugly hitch in his shot

Delly needs to work on that if he wants to stay in the league. He's pure hustle which is nice, but at the NBA level it's also nice to have some offensive skill set, especially for a guard. Remember Eric Snow? Worst player in NBA history.

So then you would rather have Craft over Curry, right?

Assuming Love and Irving are healthy, yes. Curry would ride the bench otherwise.

One thing I didn't consider in wanting Craft over Delly is that Delly is 2 in taller then Craft.

Agree with Sleeper, Delly needs to fix his shot.

If you want to take things out of context sure. Never said Delly was better than Curry; just better for our team.

Cavs alternate jerseys for 2015-16. My all time favorite (Miracle at Richfield gold with wine/white trim) coming back. The sleeved one is interesting....

Has Craft even been on the court for a game that wasn't D-League, Summer League, etc.

Matthew Dellavedova is a better fit for our team than the MVP ?

Irving is better than Curry, so Curry would ride the bench. Maybe he would play a little if Irving gets tired or wants a break.

Pretty much will use that pick to package with the TPE. Hopefully the cavs can trade rape somebody with the TPE.

THE HAYWOOD CONTRACT
The Cavs have three options for the $10.5 million Brendon Haywood contract which is set to expire at the end of July. Remember, the Cavs have no interest in retaining the veteran center.
1. They can cut him at the end of month and not have to pay the $10.5 million non-guaranteed option.
2. They can trade him to another team, perhaps for a shooting guard to fill Smith's spot. That has to be done before the end of the month.
3. They can trade the contract to a team with lots of salary cap room. The three big possibilities are Portland, Philadelphia and Utah. The Cavs would have to add perhaps a second-round pick in the deal -- and they'd receive a "trade option in return."

Unless they find the perfect match, wouldn't it make sense to get the trade exemption?

Cavs trade Haywood, and Mike Miller to the Blazers for 2 2nd Rd picks and a huge Trade Exception.
