The sad part is, some of these dolts that call in to local Cleveland sports talk radio have somehow mindf#cked themselves into believing that Rose is a suitable replacement for Kyrie and "all is fine."superman;1863765 wrote:28 year old former MVP. Great deal for the Cavs.

Oh, I agree. Had no issue with Rose getting limited minutes off the bench, with the second unit, to spell Kyrie. For 2.1M, if he blows out his knee again, no big financial loss.

Saw something about the Suns offering Bledsoe & Josh Jackson but then backed off on adding Jackson.

So basically they want a top 20 player for free. Not going to happen.BR1986FB;1864045 wrote:Saw something about the Suns offering Bledsoe & Josh Jackson but then backed off on adding Jackson.

Yeah I don't want Kyrie for Wiggins straight up. Kyrie and some other assets would be nice though, if we have to trade Kyrie.

+1 to this as well. No way I am trading them Kyrie unless they give us Booker.Commander of Awesome;1864046 wrote:So basically they want a top 20 player for free. Not going to happen.

On another note, I'm so tired of these grown men (LBJ & KI) acting like little passive aggressive bitches with their little cryptic Snapchat videos. Grow the f#ck up/

Bledsoe George lebron love and Thompson would have been real nice.
Love lebron but these are the types of things I hate from him. Always so year to year. Could have guaranteed a really really good team for the next 3+ years and he says no? Ugh.

100%, well put. This will also be the thing that twitter/NBA/ESPN says that we've all heard before. "They couldn't put the pieces around LBJ, blah blah blah".SportsAndLady;1864080 wrote: Love lebron but these are the types of things I hate from him. Always so year to year.

On the other hand, if Gilbert hadn't played penis flickers with Griffin we might have the GM in place to tell Kyrie to STFU. Or have the conjones to pull the trigger and get PG, thinking a yr of PG, Love, LBJ, Rose, etc.. is enough to compete for a title and get them both back.

I don't think we were ever going to get PG. indys GM is a fucking idiot and basically said he wasn't trading him to the cavs no matter what. So that point is kind of muteCommander of Awesome;1864085 wrote:100%, well put. This will also be the thing that twitter/NBA/ESPN says that we've all heard before.

I'd hope indys GM wouldn't accept a much better deal for his franchise all because that deal would be with the cavs. They should probably fire him just for saying he won't make a deal with the cavaliers for any player. That's just bad management.Crimson streak;1864091 wrote:I don't think we were ever going to get PG. indys GM is a fucking idiot and basically said he wasn't trading him to the cavs no matter what.

Kyrie is out there. I don't trade him straight up for anybody from the teams mentioned,unless you can get Leonard from SA and that is never going to happen.

Screw Irving. Sick of hearing about this clown already. Either you get an "offer you can't refuse" haul for him or he's a Cav in 2017-18.
Heard on the radio this morning that the T-Wolves want to throw their hat in the ring for KI but are "debating" whether they want to add Wiggins in the deal? LOL....these teams must think the Cavs are going to deal him for a bucket of peanut shells or something.

You treat the Irving situation the same way the lakers treated Kobe when he cried for a trade (ironic that Kobe mentors kyrie). You trade him if you get an amazing offer, and you keep him if not. Worked out pretty well for the lakers.BR1986FB;1864213 wrote:Screw Irving. Sick of hearing about this clown already. Either you get an "offer you can't refuse" haul for him or he's a Cav in 2017-18.

Also LOL at wolves. I would love to know their offer without Wiggins.
