All well and good in a non salary cap league. I'd love for a Paul Harden Lebron Durant Jordan or whatever high dollar center. I mean who gives a damn about how much money they make, just give us winners.
I used to think Tristan Thompson was overpaid but between these 2p16 contracts and how he brought it in the playoffs, I'd take him over Love now. Not that the Cavs would part with him.
How can anyone be so sure that Ariza's game has declined? And before you say "the eyeball test" proves it, of course he played like crap a good part of last year. But then again, so did nearly our entire team. Whatever the cause of the team-wide malaise that started in training camp, it was a very real thing that made nearly everyone on the roster look like their games were off. I say we hang on to Ariza and even Brewer and see how they do in this new system. It's not like their value is going to go down much further after last year's debacle, so we can dump either or both at the trade deadline if they don't regain their form. <BR>
We already went full r****d by going with Dantoni. Do you think that in anycase that cavs would agree to trade Ariza for Love Morey wouldnt do it in a second? That would be suicidle. I can guarantee that Ariza and Beverly are packed in a trade deal waiting for the ok from Lebron. If by the Trade exception that Cavs get in return (again over 21 mil to bulk up.for the worriors) thay could find a suitable player (lets say D Wade), I bet they would and we should jump on it in a second. Love.would be a terific center for that team
Interesting one there. Seems like rockets making it happen for the Kings too, I would wonder if Ariza/Bev isn't good enough for love. Or hell, is Ariza or Bev plus capela good enough for cousins?
He shot a higher 3pt percentage last season than the previous season. It's hard to show his shot is in decline.
Brewer sucks worse, Ariza just sucks a little. I have high expectations Deck, if you are satisfied with a player that can't dribble the damned ball or make a decent pass to a cutter, then our standards are VASTLY different. DD
Lucky for the Spurs Bruce Bowen had a 40 inch vertical, could drop 30 in a game, had handles like LeBron and could get to the FT line 9-10 times a game. I mean, amirite?
Now you're just making stuff up, again. Ariza is not going to be a primary ball handler off the bench, now or ever. Just stop with the hate because you can't relate.
Are you responding to my post? And if so, did you read the entire thing? Hell, I was defending Ariza from DD's claim that he "sucks." I said he had been playing too many minutes, something I've said several times in the past and during the season, and he has been. My implication was that it impacted his game, and if he isn't the same player he was a couple of seasons ago, that could be the reason. And if he truly isn't the same player he was a couple of seasons ago, he still doesn't suck. Hell, why am I wasting my time replying??
