@DJ ?

Milwaukee would be a better team without Eric Bledsoe... he's not terrible, but he has too many flaws.

That problem will solve itself next year at the latest.

He will be ufa this Summer and I bet they trade him at the deadline.

@DJ ?

I thought you said he was trash at this point in his career.

Probably somebody else.

Asked a question....figured you would cop to it if you did.

Not scrolling through 40-45 pages of this thread since the season started looking for a needle in a haystack.....

Pretty easy...

I just typed in his name...lol

He has regressed.

But, I don't think he sucks.

I think he gets dealt because they don't wanna pay him.

Ohhh....

I think I know what you are talking about.

I said that about Marc Gasol, remember?

But, I think I mentioned Bledsoe getting traded too.

I like him because he’s a big fan of country music, likes Taylor Swift and wears cowboy boots.

Poster Child for " Don't judge a book by its cover ".

He's a very eclectic Dude.

You might be happy that they did.

His youth and upside is a plus.

But, Look at Josh's production side by side with other guys in his tax bracket.

You could have 2 Josh Richardson's for the price of one Kent Baxemore.

Ffs. He makes less than Jared fucking Dudley, Avery Bradley and fucking Matthew Delavadova.

To beat the Warriors or the fave in the EC?

EC. Would still have them losing to GS.

Tough series though, vs the last 2 Finals.

Jimmy Butler is Jimmy Butler but a 1st round pick could be anything. It could even be Jimmy Butler!

There's a Simpsons quote for all things in life

You have forgotten that Kawhi is in Toronto and the Celtics took the Cavs to 7 games in the ECF last year without Kyrie or Hayward. So, both of those teams look to have improved significantly while the Cavs would just be older. Their ceiling would be the ECF.



This is where you either can't get past being butthurt that Lebron left or just don't know much about basketball.

Of course they're struggling. They are young and the Lakers have a bunch of new faces. Of course it's going to take time to see how good they can actually be.

In Lebron's first season in Miami, 17 games into the season the Heat were 9-8 and that was with a sure fire first ballot hall of famer and an established all star on his team.

In his first season back in Cleveland, the Cavs had a losing record at one point early in the season and that was with 2 established all stars on the team.

You expected the Lakers to be better than those teams 11 games into the season? Seriously?!?

So the same Raptors that got swept by the cavs will now beat them because they swapped Kawhi for Derozan lol

Hayward is avg 10 points and 5 rebounds on a max contract lol, and Rozier played like Kyrie last year in the playoffs

Nobody is butthurt, just telling you the truth, that by the end of the season will be obvious to you. Being young doesn't mean you are any good. The Magic have had young teams for like a decade now. As far as having losing records, none had an over the hill lebron and both teams had actual stars, big difference.

I was actually referencing Family Guy, but it wouldn't surprise me that the Simpsons had a similar quote.

Kawhi is a much better player than DeRozan, so yes.

Hayward is avg 10 points and 5 rebounds on a max contract lol, and Rozier played like Kyrie last year in the playoffs

Hayward is also coming back from an injury and hadn't played in a year. Gonna take him a minute to get back on pace. So now the Celtics would have a guy who played like Kyrie as well as Kyrie himself. Makes them that much better.

Actually, you are butthurt because Lebron is now in LA. The rest of your post actually just proves my point. So thanks for that.

So adding Kawhi and taking away Derozan they may have won a game or 2 instead of getting swept by the cavs...Cavs would have traded the lottery pick and would have also added a player, possibly butler. Minny just got even less back in return.

Hayward reminds me of love, but worse

Why would i be butthurt. If lebron was still on the cavs they would just have an over the hill guy locked up with a massive contract, with very little chance of winning (obviously more than the lakers) and no way to rebuild for years.
