That's what happens when you only use one year of Duke's prestigious "Majors for Basketball Players" program.

He flies a lot for work, I don't understand how he could possible believe that.

The way I took it, he said something ridiculous to drive home the point that people need to think for themselves vs. Following what everyone around them believes

Fucking finally. Signing him and DW and cutting a player like Liggins/McRae for a back up PG and I'd be happy. (assuming LS is in shape).

It's a good idea to give him a work out to see if he's in shape and can still play basketball.

I'd rather cut Mcrae than Liggins. Mcrae is not an NBA basketball player.

Shumpert in the trade chatter to Houston for Beverly.

I'm okay with trading Shumpert but I want some good value in return. He's the classic 3 and D player that fits well in our system so he's a pretty high value target.

Personally I don't think the Def effort is there from Shump this season. Not sure if it's injury, saving himself, or desire. He's a great perimeter defender, and Beverly is a top on ball defender in the league. I'd do the deal, but I'd think Cavs would have to include Cedi Osman to get it done.

Shump was one of my least favorite players on these cavs teams in the playoffs. Decent regular season guy but he was straight trash in the playoffs. I'd definitely do that trade.

Didn't realize Beverly was that good on the ball

Houston said they won't involve Beverly in the trade...at least straight up for Shump

Makes sense, I wouldn't either. I'd make sure Cedi was part of the deal, still not sure that's enough for them.

I'd take Beverly over Shumpert but I don't think the Rockets want to give him up.

I was merely commenting I don't want to trade Shumpert for trash. He's worth a lot so we better get a good return.

Hearing Sanders to the Cavs is now a very high likelihood.

I don't expect any trades to happen today. Deron Williams is a possibility but I don't think we really have a lot to ship out except Shumpert. If Bogut is bought out and Sanders doesn't come to fruition, I could see the Cavs adding Bogut.

Are the Cavs really going to keep McCrae when they can add two of three Williams, Bogut, or Sanders?

They were able to trade a guy out of the league, but couldn't dump a guy in the league for something. It's not my money I know but paying the luxury tax on McCrae seems stupid.

Revisiting the Love trade, the board at the time was split. So thought I'd ask again, which player would you rather have today, Kevin Love or Andrew Wiggins?
