Series Thread: 2nd Round: Cleveland Cavs vs Toronto Raptors

Shanemansj13 · Apr 27, 2017

The goal in this series is get this series done ASAP. More rest = jackpot. Now that wont be easy, Cleveland needs to step up their D and Kyrie and Love need to have a good series

Mahomes on tape looks like a black Favre, that's why Reid traded up, he's the best QB in the draft and has a fucking cannon for a arm.

A year or two of learning from Smith and you will have a franchise QB

His foot work is beyond terrible. But other than that, the kid got drafted into the perfect situation. The Chiefs aren't winning shit with Smith, but if Mahomes can sit a couple of years while learning and developing then it works out.

Our QB is Fracois, and Jimbo said this morning he thinks he will eventually be a top 10 pick, he has a ton of potential, but our line last year didn't protect him at all.

I remember that FSU Miami game. I thought we were going to murder him that game. I don't know if Francois is going to be a top 10 pick - he doesn't have that same command and take over like Jameis. But I'll give it up to Frenchie, the kid is as tough as Tannehill.

Rest should be secondary at this point. Getting in sync on defense should be the primary focus.

So much talent fell because of the QB tradeups and fournette/McCaffrey/Ross/Williams/Davis

Going early, the teams that needed a RB couldn't pass it up.

Bucs wanted Cook but they couldn't pull the trigger with Howard there, they got a top 5 player at 19, and the 49ers got Foster at 31, another top 5 player lmfao

The teams that reached for WRs and QBs are the big losers tonight.

Seriously. The Bears gave up assets to move up 1 spot to take Trubisky? Trubisky was probably going to be there anyway. Why trade?

The Chiefs move into the top 10 to draft a guy most teams didn't even have rated as a first round pick?

I get the Texans' trade, but man they gave up a lot.

Joe Ross going top 10? Really? He has talent, but with durability concerns and so many elite talents on the defensive side, no way he should have gone that high.

It amazes me that so many professional GMs have no clue how to draft.

It isn't about landing "your guy" at whatever the cost. There are tons of impact players available in the draft. The teams that draft best maximize value by mixing BPA strategy with need. If you enter the draft thinking that you have to get a certain player, you will almost always overpay.

Saints got a break with all those teams going offense in the first 10 picks

I mean if he was there at 12 fine but Chicago gave up a ton to move up one spot lol

Obviously the Niners were playing them against another team.

Will Lebron even get ten points in a game this series? Survey says no. Raps in 4, Cavs break up, Cleveland falls into Lake Erie just as the Browns start to get good.

JR and Love need to have better series' than they did against the Pacers thats for sure.

I didnt think Kyrie played that bad of defense in the Pacers series- he was jumping on the floor, giving effort- he had 3 blocks in one game which is unheard of for him.

Hopefully this week off of rest helps their defensive intensity-

only thing i worry about a little bit is being a little rusty for Game 1- esp. with Toronto coming off winning 3 straight and getting a little momentum.

Cavs wont sweep this series- there will be a loss or two.

Im predicting Cavs in 5- but I think tis more likely its 6 than a sweep.

LeBron is going to quit basketball and join the Browns.

Cavs in 5. Meh series...

of course has to do with the Browns and not the CAvs---

but with the Browns trading down from 12 to 25 with the Texans- they got a 1st rounder next year.

right now NEXT NFL draft they have 5 picks in the first 2 rounds...2 1st's and 3 2nd's.........thats in addition to 2 1st's and 2 2nd's THIS year......

total of 9 picks in the first two rounds between next year and this year......between these 2 drafts- if the Browns dont shit on themselves- they will have a chance to pick themselves up out of the shit.

Browns really did a great job for a change. Honestly, I figured they'd draft Manziel again. lol

Smart of them to try and build their defense first.

I don't like the Peppers pick. I heard he is terrible in coverage

With his size, speed and athleticism...could you imagine him at tight end? If he could take the pounding in the NFL, he'd revolutionize the position. The guys who were fast enough to stay with him, wouldn't be nearly big enough and the guys who were big enough, wouldn't be anywhere near fast enough.

I do. Coverage can be taught. That's just a matter of learning proper technique. He seems to have everything else to play safety in the NFL.

Besides, he has no choice but to be good, he's gonna be a former Michigan player playing in Ohio. Fans will wreck him if he sucks. lol

Are you serious?
There would be an injury timeout after every play.

Is this the Browns/Argonauts thread?

I'm expecting Cavs in 5. Toronto wins game 4 at home but by then it's too late.

Series Thread: 2nd Round: Cleveland Cavs vs Toronto Raptors

Who wins? How many games?

Cavs in 5 or less.

Raptors in 5 or less.

Cavs in 6 or 7.
