Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

Limiting minutes literally only matters for LeBron, though. It's still a one-man show.

He's in year 15. Not sure why Ty Lue thinks he needs to play 40 minutes per game in fucking October.
Well he didn’t last night...solid effort getting curb-stomped by the Magic. It’s a 3 point league, and they picked up a bunch of guys who can’t shoot 3s. But they shoot them anyway.

This team needs to make a trade immediately. Eric Bledsoe is available, and he probably won't have many suitors, so I'd jump on that. I simply don't think they have the personnel to reach the heights of last year's team right now.





And, thankfully:

I wonder if anyone wishes they had kept Felder rather than Calderon? At least Felder has athleticism if they are both going to be shitty on offense. JR rejoins the starting lineup, but who starts for Rose until he comes back? I'd rather start Shump than Calderon that way you at least have a good starting D. I guess that leaves Wade to handle the ball with the 2nd team with Korver, Green, and TT. Maybe they can give Osman some minutes to see how he looks. With the lack of shooting it would be nice to find some minutes for Frye. If a second unit with Korver and Frye could defend it would help open up the lane for Wade or Rose.

Complaining about three point shooting and then advocating a trade for Eric Bledsoe is just ridiculously contradictory.

I understand where you're coming from, but Bledsoe is literally better than Rose in every regard. If our starting PG could defend and pass, we wouldn't necessarily need to hit as many threes as last year. Bledsoe is also a career 33% three-point shooter while Rose is at 30%.

Bledsoe would give us some defensive versatility off the bench when Thomas comes back. Can you imagine making offense/defense substitutions in the playoffs with Thomas/Rose?
