If Lebron says no, what about Hood and Love as an alternative?

    He would guard Draymond.

    I don't think we will get LeBron, I do think he is getting older, but I would be fine with him, the point was - we are ONE CP3 Injury away from being world champs AS WE ARE CONSTRUCTED NOW - why panic?

    Health is all we need, the formula works.....

    IF, Lebron doesn't come here, why not get incrementally better?

    PS. Edited my thread title for more clarity on what I mean....

    This is WIN now, this is Don't Blow it up...we would already be champs as constructed if healthy.

    Trading Gordon and Ryno is not “blowing it up”

    No to Hood. We already have a 3pt specialist that gets scared in big moments.

    Swap Gordon for Lebron, and you say no?

    Because Ryno was a zero when it counted

    Our defensive scheme is to switch on picks. There are no exceptions. What happens when Draymond sets a pick for Curry? Trap Curry? Impossible. Have Curry's man go under the screen? Even worse. You can hide a defensive liability against a team like Charlotte, but not Golden State. The days of guarding only your matchup are over. In our series Golden State couldn't even play Zaza or McGee and the few minutes David West played he got torched.

    Golden State averaged 107ppg in our series, 116 against Cleveland. That wasn't Love's fault entirely, but he was a huge liability. San Antonio defended them better than we did, but that's because they limited Gasol's minutes and took him out of the starting lineup entirely. If you want to beat Golden State you have to defend them and Love can't. And now that GS has Durant it's like they have two Currys, which is another switching matchup nightmare.

    Toyota Center urbanization is too much as it is already.
