posted by friendfromlowryI’m jumping on the Osman bandwagon. I really want this guy to be good.
I was on his bandwagon from the day we drafted him. I am glad they didn't trade him away. I think he should be getting more minutes than JR at this point.

Gotta support the turks!

I think LBJ was really happy that IT was going out the door. I was!
It was just one game, but it was pretty crazy to see the effort and the camaraderie with essentially a brand new team. Even the corpses of JR and TT were showing life.
posted by ppaw1999It will be interesting seeing what other stories come out in the next few weeks. It's fun living in the fake news era.
He was in Chicago last yr and they had the same leaky toxic locker room.
I would believe it about Wade. I was surprised when they got rid of him for a pick that very likely won't ever amount to much. I'd guess Wade, IT, and Rose didn't positively impact the locker room much.
Looks like they struck magic with the trade. They vaulted themselves back to being the east favorite.
This new lineup can take out the warriors

Want me to leave?
Put a poll on the main forum for one week. If the OC votes me to go.......I'm gone.
Doubt Justin wants to lose one one of the sites best assets but if I happens...so be it,
I dare you.
Go Cavs....
Definitely looked like they were having fun yesterday. Will be interesting to see how things go tomorrow in OKC.

Nobody cares dude. You already said you were leaving the site and came back. I don't think anyone would notice a difference with you gone, except we won't have you posting on this thread trying to make the thread about yourself.
Maybe some butthurt going around?
Kudos to the Cavs on the moves ........had to happen. Altman sounded good during the game the other night.
With some defense they now have a chance.
Any rumors for the Cavs' buy out market?
I did some quick research. Give me Ersan Ilyasova and Brook Lopez/Tyson Chandler.
Belinelli would be a good get too, but getting a scoring big who rebounds (since apparently TT can't do that anymore) makes the most sense.

He's signing with the 6ers.
Belinelli going to the Sixers
Rose probably to the Wolves
Brandon Wright and Joe Johnson to the Rockets
Tony Allen likely to OKC
IMO, the Cavs should just wait and let this team get some games under their belt then see where they have holes at.
The deadline for a player to be waived and eligible for the playoffs on his new team is March 1.
Can Tony Allen still play (defend)?
I can't think of the last buyout player that made a big impact. Deron WIlliams actually played well for us in the playoffs until the finals. Then he turned into the worst player in the NBA.
Tony Allen's advanced stats show he's declining, but can prob still help a team in the playoffs. Last time Johnson was a buyout he decided to go to Miami over us and we won the ship. Hope history repeats itself.

My kid played against him in a tournament in Columbus in 6th grade. Wasn’t as great as expected but quite special and well he was 12 lol

I agree about Deron. A lot of people trashed him (including me), because of his finals performance, but he did play pretty well in the playoffs. Derrick Williams was also solid last year. For whatever reason Lue stopped playing him.
Adams is very good. The best, in fact, on the offensive glass. But if Tristian can’t even get a SINGLE rebound over him, he can’t play over Nance/Green.
This team is awesome. They’re so much better to watch than prior to the trades.
Glad Lue played Nance over Thompson. Adams still got his, but Nance was much tougher on him. And Nance is much better on the offensive end.
G'damn that was a fun game. I fucking love Nance. Dude is what Varejao and TT used to be. Also love Clarkson's ability to just get a fucking shot off, we've missed that.
