Worth while kick the tires move on Payton. If he stinks they can just non tender him this summer. He has tallent just never learned to shoot.

What I love about Payton is his size for a PG. This season we have struggled a lot with really small players at that position, he can make us better defensively only for that reason.

Wow for a second rounder??

That's good!

Someone to orchestrate the chaotic improv offense the team currently has. Can defend too!
Just have to ensure there are 2 other 3pt shooters on the court with him at all times.

They are getting younger. Probably to stay ready when LeBron says that he is gone.

Not sure if they are better than the Celtics.




Without LeBron Cavs still nice.

Love, Hood, Clarkson, picks... Love goes back being a 25/12 big man and he has shooters to help him. They just need depth... And with high picks They can surround the team with more talent.


Brooklyn ping pong balls will probably win the lottery and Doncic goes to Cleveland and then the Lakers ping pong balls will win the 2nd pick and Ayton will go to Boston. That's the type of stuff that happens in the NBA....Boston/Cleveland top two picks....and especially the Suns since we traded one of them. Meanwhile, we will drop from 5th to 8th.

Quick reminder that steals and defense are different things. On that bombshell I'm going back to bed.

Reportedly, his defense is a myth.

I agree that it will be nice to have some size at the 1. Watching opponents go at Ulis on every single possession was exhausting.

Crazy how fast ESPN updates their roster. At least Payton shoots over 50% from the field.
