I have the same opinion the day the trade was made, regardless of how well he ends up playing offensively, the way the Cavs are constructed, they can't absorb his defensive deficiencies. It's too much.



Yeah I know it was more a general statement.

We have holes everywhere defensively so I’d prefer a defensive wing or centre before we fix the point guard spot


The problem with the defensive wing theory is LBJ won't play PF. Crowder is much better out of SF.

Jarret Allen isn’t winning you anything. Garland won’t show up in the playoffs. Mobley is a glorified dunk man. Mitchell has some experience but is a liability on defense. To me, the Cavs are a treadmill team.

Coaching changes coming?


LBJ had it coming. There's a difference between conserving energy and just not playing defense. Frankly, it almost seems like LBJ is tanking at times to try and force a trade.

That is definitely the appearance. The Cavs play bad every January until mid February. Then a trade happens.
