If Cleveland could somehow add a guy like Anthony Davis. But I don't think TT is enough to get that deal done.

Zogo posted:It's hard to be objective by just watching. The numbers help a lot. I think you're talking about something different than I am completely and frankly I don't know what it is. The next innovation after the current wave of increased screening and 3pt shooting is...more people will be good at 3pt shooting? They will be on the same team more often? I'm not talking about the current direction of the league, and I'll grant that my question was a bit silly because of course no one knows the answer, but this is just a non sequitur. Similarly with the Mike Brown thing, you're just misunderstanding what's happening. Mike Brown didn't create or install a system in GS. No one is "bowing down" to him let alone a hypothetical other coach of the same players. Hell, people are hesitant to crown Kerr a top coach because he's in a bit of a Doc Rivers situation where he has the most talent and his defense was heavily influenced by an assistant (who was a former assistant of the same guy who worked for Rivers, you've possibly heard of him). I'll pull a Zogo and declare myself right about an unproveable hypothetical: had Mike Brown been hired as head coach of the Warriors in May 2014 rather than Steve Kerr, they would currently have 0 rings, no Kevin Durant, and Steph Curry would never have been MVP. Guaranteed.

Re: Lebron leaving. What I can see happening is the Cleveland ownership gave a timeline in which they would post repeater tax until they had to get under it. Lebron might have a amicable exit plan already that let's him join another team for the last phase of his career while letting Cleveland reset. If Cleveland keeps spending the money they are spending they will be owing $100+ million in tax in a few years and I can't imagine that can last.

By the way Spurs theory crafters https://mobile.twitter.com/poundingtherock/status/872799315445633024 My buddy who's the #1 Spurs fan I know wants to dump Tony and go after Chris Paul but my opinion is that someone who is as much a part of the franchise's success as TP gets to decide when and how he retires. Am I overly sentimental here? Also he looked amazing in the playoffs before he got injured, how come-back-fromable is whatever he did to his leg? zoux fucked around with this message at 03:41 on Jun 9, 2017 |

I'd bring back Tony Parker again and again if I'm the Spurs but for the vet minimum. He's replacement level now and by that I actually do mean a guy from the D-League I've never heard of.

I'd bring Tony back as long as he takes the late super discount Timmy and Gino did, and as long as Pop can make him cry in the shower again. imo unless we actually get CP3 somehow it's time to throw Dejounte into the fire and see how it works.

Am I overly sentimental here? I wouldn't say so. The downside to free agency is fewer people staying with one team for a career. For someone who has brought greatness to a franchise, they absolutely should get that consideration. Besides, if he sticks around the Warriors can show him what traveling to that house of horrors was like.

unless they get a comparable defensive big back(and theres very few and most of them arent on much better contracts than TT) idk why they would dump TT. one bad series does not invalidate him as a player. hes great

TT and Irving have been are relative disappointments, they ain't gonna carry old LeBron to jack poo poo. I appreciate that Kyrie choose style over substance through. Steph just teabagged your homecourt. I kinda wonder what will happen once Lebron loses his skills, will he be able to relinquish control and be a role player? He'll prob just retire right?

I'm not sure there's any move for either Lebron or the Cavs to get better. I don't know where Lebron can go that could reasonably sign him to a max and beat the Warriors.
