I agree with this and, have thought it all along but the "Bad Boys" days of the Pistons are gone. I think the GSW's are a finesse team and if you knock them on their ass (especially Steph) a few times when they take the ball to the hole, it would make them settle for jumpers. You'd just have to hope they'd go cold.Classyposter58;1857926 wrote: I know this Golden State team is a different animal but the point remains you have to attempt to beat up and bully an offensive team like this. Regardless of personnel I think we can agree that the Warriors are getting far too easy of looks in this series

Yeah, there's that. Was listening to 92.3 on my lunch hour and they seem to think a new deal will be announced right after the season. Sounds like there are no real enticing opportunities out there.friendfromlowry;1857932 wrote:Isn't David Griffin's contract up this year, too? It's no guarantee he will be around to work more magic.

I also think he'll get a nice "pay raise" with the new deal.BR1986FB;1857934 wrote:Yeah, there's that. Was listening to 92.3 on my lunch hour and they seem to think a new deal will be announced right after the season. Sounds like there are no real enticing opportunities out there.

He deserves it. He needs to be the highest paid GM in the league and then add some incentives in the deal if we win more championships.Commander of Awesome;1857970 wrote:I also think he'll get a nice "pay raise" with the new deal.

Agreed, he essentially got Moz, Shump, JR, Korver, Frye, Dwill (x2) for a "bag of beans".sleeper;1857971 wrote:He deserves it. He needs to be the highest paid GM in the league and then add some incentives in the deal if we win more championships.

If they decide to go that route. Jimmy butler or Paul George would be the only players I'd want. It essentially moves lebron to the 4 spot which is the best position for him st this point in his career. And gives the cavs a shooter/ defensive guy to match up with Durant. That would be the best opportunity to make the cavs betterBR1986FB;1857923 wrote:If they could somehow get Paul George AND keep K-Love (pipe dream), I'd like those 4 (LBJ/KI/PG/Love) against their 4.

All pipe dreams. The Cavs aren't getting Butler or PG.

Eh George no, butler could be a possibility. They would obviously have to trade lovelike_that;1857981 wrote:All pipe dreams. The Cavs aren't getting Butler or PG.

Hell with it, kick the tires on a possible Kyrie for Russ trade. I say 1% chance it would happen, but 0 if they don't look into it.

We are not going to win this series, but I at least hope we can kick the living fuck out of the Warriors tonight

I saw this the other day. So you just lost a close, great series against a very evenly matched team. If Green isn't suspended, then maybe it plays out differently. The response was "We need to add one of the top five players to help us next time!" SMH. I struggle to give them or Durant much credit or understanding. They pussed out.ppaw1999;1858010 wrote:https://www.yahoo.com/sports/draymond-green-called-kevin-durant-parking-lot-warriors-blew-3-1-lead-144703872.html

I don't think it'll happen, but imagine if the Cavs win tonight, then somehow manage to win game five Monday back at Golden State. Imagine the shitshow the media will be having.
