Also, Green turns the ball over a lot which is surprising since he's not an aggressive offensive player. He's solid, nothing more. |

He gets abused by good post up players. It seems like the better power forwards always score their season average and sometimes better against Green in head-to-head matchups. Even Van Gundy noted this in the Western Conference Finals. Overrated |

It's almost as stupid argument that Dane makes about the turds the Royals gave up for Cueto and Zobrist.

They gave up a lot, but I like the trade for the sixers. Fultz is the real deal... now just get Embiid to stay healthy.

Ok... so am I reading this right on the updated info. The celtics get the lakers pick next year if it's 2-5. If not they get the kings pick in '19 unprotected
Now I REALLY like it for the sixers. It's not a terrible trade for Boston either Last edited by Urc Burry; 06-17-2017 at 09:56 PM.. |

No...it still doesn't. His incredible basketball IQ is a huge reason why the Warriors have been so successful on both ends for three years running and why they felt his absence so heavily when he did stupid shit like kicking players in the groin.

http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/...nce-to-end-it/ It's pretty safe to say there is no combination of players that would have resulted in more than 1 championship for the Cavs over that time. Even that one was pretty miraculous and needed perhaps the best Finals performance ever as well as the worst choke. |

Damn, that dude is obsessed with this place. He's literally up all hours of the night incessantly arguing with strangers about nothing.

I think you like to pick fights with me for the sake of fighting. You're calling me out for speculating? You said the Love trade was the only reason the Cavs won the championship. The ONLY reason. That's speculating too. I don't know how good you think Love's been for the Cavs. It's not like he's lit the world on fire. He's been solid enough as a support guy. You think you couldn't find a support guy with Love's max contract? The playoff run 3 years ago is more than enough reason to speculate that the Cavs could have won without the trade. Again, it wasn't just a Love for Wiggins trade. The Cavs could have added lots of pieces in Love's place. Last edited by chiefzilla1501; 06-18-2017 at 08:22 AM.. |

The Royals are not bound by a salary cap. Because the Cavs traded for Love, they lost ability to spend $15M a year - in basketball terms, that's the salary of a really good player. This isn't even close to the same argument. That's not even getting into the trade chips or that I never liked Love's fit with the Cavs' scheme in the first place. |
