For the sake of the NBA this can't happen. We've been celebrating the #SummerofPIPE for goodness sake

Wade is about the worst elite player to pair and compliment James in the entire league. He provides no floor spacing. The Miami experiment would have been better with someone else complimenting Bosh and James.

Their defense goes up a ton. I'd be worried about not having enough to sign JR though.

One way or another, there needs to be an all star team in the East to serve as a counter balance to GS. Cleveland is the only choice.

I love what GS has done but there must be some balance out of the East somehow.

No there doesn't. GS did not get any better. I'm sure that will be hard for most to understand.

If it turns out you are wrong, will you say that you are wrong or just disappear?

The issue is only one person gets to shoot at a time. People are overreacting to this big time. If this team has trouble rebounding, it will be hard for them to win multiple playoff series.

Harrison Barnes + Bogut = 17.9 TRB per 36 minutes.

Zaza + Durant = 21.1 TRB per 36 minutes.

Now who else they sign will factor into the final product(Ezeli for instance is gone) but as of now they are on paper better on the boards in those two positions then they were 2 days ago.

I'll venture to say that the quality of that shot might be just a lil bit better with KD on the floor instead of barnes.

also, you're selling zaza way too short here. he's practically another draymond in a 6'11 body. that combined with KD's height and length and penchant for boards, they'll improve in that respect. heck, KD averaged double the boards that HB did.

That's what they better hope happens. If this team gels, they're going to destroy the rest of the league.

not saying smith is better than wade, but I think smith is a better fit in CLE than wade. smith's a much better 3 point shooter (when he's on), and a solid perimeter defender. not to mention, he's already established there, and they have good team chemistry

unless the cavs move james to PF, and smith to SF and play wade at SG. . .

wade gets "insulted" by miami by their offer

wade then goes out and finds that no one is going to fricking pay him 20 million dollars


wade then tries to form superfriends part dux with cleveland and they figure out a way to get him the MLE and wade gets to look like a hero

when in reality miami was right lol. no one is fricking paying a broke down arse none shooting bad knee d wade 20 million dollars.


I think the 20 million dollar offer was a save face / we owe you this much thing there is no way miami is signing him for 20 million dollars and now wade gets to look like a hero instead of a broken down bum that he is

It's amazing to me people are flipping their shite over this. I don't like the Warriors or Cavs and the over reaction to this is mind blowing.


KD might not even fit with the Warriors and they don't even have a serviceable center. Let's not crown them yet.
