Too many dogs not enough puppies

Detroit - Cavs too. Guy was hitting everything

If only his skill matched his intensity. I love Max, but I’d ship him yesterday if it guaranteed us Kuminga or Watson.

the old “running around a lot down 30” trick to convince people hes working hard out there

shit we would take him if the cavs dont want him.

easily a better player than kuminga

Plus him straight headbutting Scottie Barnes was hilarious

Analytically the Cavs front office is on some BS

Would rather have Strus than Kuminga lol

They still have Sam Merrill. If they want to bring in Watson or Kuminga, Strus/Merrill might be squeezed out of the rotation. Esp if Tyson continues progressing.

Harden/Mitchell/Watson/Mobley/Allen and Mann/Merrill/Tyson/Tomlin/Bryant would be their 10-man roation.

It would make sense to try and move Strus IF you believe Kuminga/Watson is a significant upgrade at that position.

No, that’s Merrill

They have zero perimeter defense post dean wade departure

Scottie Barnes had them on edge.  With no Wade, and Kawhi, they need size just to match up.  

It’d be one thing if it was just scottie, but now with Kawhi and Lebron entering the picture, need a physical wing because Mobley can only guard one of Kawhi or Barnes, or Brown or Lebron, never-ending th4 Knicks.  

Their 3 has been weak basically.  

It is indeed a choice 

Okay well I guess the team that got thumped in the Eastern Conference Finals should stand pat and cling to a 30 year old injury prone combo guard on an expiring contract that they have a glut of and hope for the best.

Yeah totally don’t get it

In no world is Strus a better shooter than Sam Merrill

Our best shooter is Sam Merrill and it might be debatable if he’s even better than Jaylon Tyson who shot 44% from three last year.

Not just one of their best remaining shooters, he’s also one of the few genuine dawgs on that team.

How do the blazers give Cleveland cap savings in the trade?

Three way trade with Nuggets if they are interested in Sharpe

I hope you can too

he’d be unlocked again if he ends up back with the Heat 🤕

I have no idea how we’d get him but I would love to set the Strus Loose again.

Right. Either one would be good value at \(10 million a year but a cap burden at \)20 million.

Kuminga and reasonable rate doesn’t work

You’d get to resign a older James Harden who does none of those things

comparing Strus to Rodman now lmao

it’s insane how hyperbolic yall get when glazing white players

well yeah considering Warriors went 9-19 after the Kuminga trade and missed playoffs entirely

and they’ve already given up on this season too before it even started, with their FO saying it’s a “gap year”

They are already below the second apron with the Schroder trade. Another bad take

Clips can’t do a damn thing as long as the Kawhi trade remains in limbo.

Might be to appease Harden

Nah both guys are a better fit than Strus for sure. They need bigger bodies

Abysmal take. The entire reason he’s not re-signed is because it’s easier to coordinate these sorts of moves without him locked in as opposed to with him locked in

If they get either Watson or Kuminga, Hardens new contract will come before that deal is official.

You don’t know what you are talking about.

to where?

No teams have cap space to give him more than whatever the Cavs do even if that’s like $20M

This feels like the cavs chickens finally coming home to roost. Made minimal (or no) significant changes for almost 5 years as the conference has improved all around them. Went all in on geriatric harden last year who played well but because of Mobley’s passiveness and the awkward fit of him and Allen, was again forced to do too much. I think it might have to be blown up entirely at this point
