Probably not the solution to our PG problem.

he doesn’t need to be a pure point since we have Randle and RJ as playmakers. perfect fit here and you know Thibs gonna get him right on defense. plus we got Johnnie Bryant who has had plenty of success with scoring guards.

Cleveland is a horrible franchise and they don’t know wtf they’re doing. get Sexton for low while you can. you aren’t gonna get a 25 PPG player this cheap anywhere else. and he’s only 22 years old

Also RJ would knock him out

I hear you. The kid can definitely score, and his age is certainly an attractive attribute. I guess I’m just leery of bringing in guys no matter how talented who may have reputations for being selfish and problems in the locker room.

Culture is critically important to winning. It’s also a fragile thing. My personal view is that it may not be worth expending the considerable assets it would likely require to land a young talent who might risk imperiling the palpably great chemistry this team now has.

Still, I admit to being far removed from the Cavs. So these reports could very well be BS. Just something to consider.

i feel you. imo I think it’s bs. kid is a really hard worker and just wants to win. he even takes pride in playing defense even though he isn’t that great at it. shows effort at least. i personally would love to see what our coaching staff can do with him. i might be biased since I wanted the Knicks to draft him. missed him by one spot smh

I wish some NBA player would drop KP to the floor the way that Mark Davis did to Shawn Bradley many years ago.

Drummond has been playing losing basketball for the Pistons and the Cavs his whole career. You expect him to just come in and be a winning player just like that? Lakers better off playing anyone else tbh. Drummond gives up more than he gives

They're better off starting Gasol or Montrell. Lakers need to play small ball with AD at Center like they eventually did last playoffs. Otherwise... they're gonna lose.

Lakers look bad. AD looks like he checked out. LeBron tweaked his ankle again. Not looking good for the champs.

This is the type of effort that ruins the work place environment.

Adam Silver is making sure that guys like Lebron and Westbrook are in the play in tournament since nobody was going to care about these games to begin with.
