    $57k in salary, $144k in luxury tax.

    NBA's own fault. We've gotten fucked on big games see last GSW game.

    As anyone mentioned the Cavs Podcast, "Road Trippin'" I tried a search and didn't find it, would recommend a listen. Outside of the Kevin Love ones, they've been good.

    Haven't heard the Love ones yet, but first 4 are hilarious. Kyrie has some crazy shit in his brain lol.

    Its on iTunes, iHeartRadio, podcast app for iPhone and a few others. They need to figure out the audio, but that often happens with new podcasts.

    Heard a lot of chatter about Bogut. Supposedly he's available and the Cavs are the #1 suitor.
  • sleeper
    Larry Sanders is another option. Not sure I want him though.

    I would take Bogut easily over Sanders. Bogut to the Cavs would be a huge steal imo.

    I'd be happy with either. I think Sanders provides upside and athleticism that Bogut doesn't. Sanders would be a better fit for Def against GSW as well, but Bogut would provide exp for the first 10 games he plays before getting hurt despite only playing 12 min a game.

    The fact that Bogut has been playing in the NBA the last 2 years unlike Sanders makes me lean toward Bogut.

    I get that, but Sanders has been mental not physical which is the caveat. Is Sanders in shape? Signing Bogut, I'm fine with it, but also realistic in what he'll bring. Not much, and will probably get hurt bc he's always fucking hurt.

    Some positives for Bogut:

    -he can pass
    -boards
    -rim protector
    -illegal screens that he gets away with
    -inside info on GSW

    4 of those are dependent on health, which he has shown an inability to be throughout this career. If Healthy, I totally agree.
