JT ain't go no defense mannnn!!! Lol.
Come on now. Taylor is a pretty good defensive player.

I disagree, he was a matched RFA, it was that or lose him for nothing. Also, he was clearly worth his deal 2 seasons ago. We might wanna hold up before we write his post mortem.

Nothing backs that up except for what come out of Dunlap and Clifford mouths because Cho told them that's what he is. We had a top 5 defense when he got hurt and he still was way in the negative. Lol.

Lance and MKG could definitely bother Lebron/Wiggins. Kyrie would probably school Kemba, but Kemba would score very well against him too. Our bigs would rape that Cavaliers front line. If Kyrie can't figure out how to be at peak form without the ball in his hands, they would be significantly weaker than most people think.

This move can really help this team and franchise continue to grow and move forward. He's a player with star potential that our franchise needs. He's a secondary ball handler, he can shoot from the wing, a wing playmaker, an elite rebounder for a guard, and he would allow us to switch almost everything on defense in certain spots. He's a head case of course, but a little bit of that being kept in check can be a good thing.
Offer him 2 for $22 or maybe even 4 for $40. Whatever is left bid on Boozer. If you get Boozer and Lance we are set.
Ship out one of the many SGs we have if we get Lance and get a PF if not Boozer or get help in other areas.

Kemba made Kyrie work for his last season. I think Kemba is an underrated defender. Not a great defender just underrated.

The way he played in the second half and the playoffs he wrote it himself.

you think it's really impossible that he went through a slump he can bounce back from?

So much great news. You won't regret it Cho. This might've saved your job and reputation.

Hes a spot up shooter who was rather porous on defense. That 20+ game slump was dreadful. He didn't contribute much on either end.
