Cleveland Cavaliers 11-12 season thread

    Irving, Waiters, Gee, Hedo, TT, Zeller, and Bynum. Plus a 2013 lottery pick. This will make us a contender and speed up the rebuilding progress. And I love it that Bynum would resign with us.

    Lol how could I forget? And Samuels has really improved through the offseason.

    how do you figure we will have a 2013 lottery pick with that team?

    I'd love to trade up to get one. Would be the finishing touch. Heck, I'd trade our whole 2013 draft for a chance to snag Shabazz.

    Very wishful thinking.

    I've been checking out RCF the past few days regarding these Bynum rumors. Some of those guys are knowledgeable, but seems a lot of them are clueless. Think Bynum is overrated, the Magic are an organization that is ran good, etc
  • sportchampps
    If the trade happens your whole 2013 draft would be a mod/late 1st and 2nd not good enough for a lottery pick
  • sportchampps
    The only bad thing for the cavs is Bynum and kyrie are fragile

    Bynum is supposed to go to Germany in September to get the "magic" knee treatment Kobe got.

    I personally think Orlando would need to get very desperate for this to go down.

    aren't they kinda desperate now? I mean, Dwight isn't resigning with them, so they need to trade em. People know they need to trade, thus aren't giving them FMV for someone of his caliber... it's like a firesale. Everything Howard must go, and they're trying to get what they can.
  • Commander of Awesome
    So why wouldn't Orlando want Bynum?

    Because he's already stated he wouldn't re-sign with them.

    He wouldn't resign with them. So they would basically be in the same spot they were in last year

    They are very desperate
  • KR1245
    Howard and Bynum both have a short list of teams they would sign with. That's only going to make this tougher on Orlando. They need to jump on a deal soon
  • wildcats20
    Bynum isn't going to Orlando.
  • KR1245
    Orlando is the only team in these trade talks that has to make a move. Howard has put them in a tough spot.
  • ohiobucks1
    I really REALLY hope this happens.

    Dream scenario:

    Our Heat and Kings picks + a 2nd. + taking bad contracts = bynum lol

    Seems like bynums agent is trying to gain leverage I wouldn't look into it too much.

    yeah, I agree.

    Everything I hear is that he loves both Kyrie and Byron Scott. Agents are fucking tools
