Harden is an elite player full stop because he more than makes up for his defensive deficiencies. Harden usually has an elite level impact when he...
Harden and Curry both have other redeeming qualities thake make up for their defensive deficiencies. Melo has none, and even in the scoring...
Although I'm not very high on Melo as a player, this is one reason why I feel like we would be better off with Melo on this team. Harden just...
You think a disgruntled player will perform at this best for the team? Love already sacrificed a lot of his career to be just the third wheel on a...
Melo + Love + LeBron rotation simply doesn't make sense, and if someone gets benched that player is not going to be happy with the decision. If...
As I said, the Cavs have zero incentive to replace Love with Melo. It's a downgrade.
Good luck with defense. LeBron defending opposing guards? He's getting older and already has trouble keeping up with his man, let alone more...
Love is not going to be a bench player, especially to a player like Melo who is arguably inferior? If that happens, 100% chance that he leaves.
Love is a better shooter, rebounder, and defender(actually true) than Melo is. I would actually prefer to have Love over Melo on our team, but...
Yeah, but the rotation simply doesn't make sense. Love, Melo, LeBron are all big forwards, so somebody has to go to the bench. I don't think...
Why would the Cavs give up Tristan, their only legit inside presence? Again, Melo + Love + LeBron is just not a good fit. How would that rotation...
Because Cavs have very little incentive to bring in Melo. They would have to give up Love in order to make that deal work, but why would they?
As I said earlier, there is zero chance Morey gives away Capela or Gordon in exchange for Melo. Not going to happen. OTH, Ariza is a fair game. I...
Ryno+Ariza for Melo or other All-star caliber player wouldn't upset anyone on this team, even CP3 and Harden. Ryno+Ariza for some scrub wouldn't...
Nobody's gonna take Ryno's toxic contract alone. We need to sweeten the deal, and only way to do that is to include other players and few draft...
Still, Capela has pretty big upside if things work out well. Maybe not All-star, but definitely a solid, starting C caliber player for sure. Is...
Gordon & Capela are untradable assets at this point. I thought it was pretty clear to everyone by now? Morey called Capela 'future All-star', and...
What? The stupid reason that Ariza is close with CP3? Yeah, CP3 will be real mad when we trade Ryno+Ariza for Melo. You really think that?
So few people are mentioning Ariza's name in possible trade scenarios. Why? Based on pure basketball skills and worth, Ariza should be the first...
Way better than Ariza, at least defensively.
