So, Mo Williams for Kyrie Irving and Baron Davis was a bad trade? Ok. Got it.


pretty sure you can still get held back with one A
So trading Jon Leuer to Memphis for a 1st round pick that is guaranteed to be between 6 and 15. What grade do we give that one?

Wait, what?! You think Oladipo never makes an All Star game?
Are you being sarcastic? Yes, I think Oladipo never makes an All Star game.

It's kinda sad that a team like Boston is able to rebuild faster than this Cleveland team. I can see Boston go on a roll an win multiple games in a row (then lose some) and still clinch a playoff spot.

The Cavs are imho too inconsistent to even get close to that 8 seed.

Seems like they need a starting center and sg if Waiters is going to be the bench punch.

They didn't just fire their GM because of a "perceived failure"
