2019 Offseason Thread

Hell yeah they were tankng. Just look at the evidence.

-LeBron (their bestest player by the way) missed games
-the starting PG missed games
-the back up PG missed games
-the start SF missed games

There could even be more players that missed time during the season but my point is they tanked.

#see-the-light

We were top 3 in games missed due to injury.....there was more than that.

 

[DJ]

Even when they had those players they weren't very good

LeBron came back, declared playoff mode activation because he was perfectly healthy and ready to do his best, and proceeded to lose almost every single game

What will be your new excuses for next year? Like every team doesn't have injuries lol

Big difference between injuries and being top 3 in missed games due to injuries.

Why are you leaving out the part when he came back, and activated playoff mode well they were still in playoff contention? Does only the beginning of a season count?

Anyways, I consider teams that aren't very good teams that pick in the lottery, but that is just me!

Pats and Warriors.....frontrunning much? LOL.

The Cavs started a season once 12-0..

Small sample size.....you know you've heard this from the women you've been with.....don't be stupid.

Could Kyle Kuzma be the next big name to join Klutch Sports?

If they were good wouldn't they have overcome their circumstances and been better than 37-45? If they were really a .622 winning team in your small sample size you keep clutching dearly lol, don't you think they would have at least been say .500?

that Lakers team was now here NEAR a 50 win team talent wise- ESPECIALLY in the West...that is laughable. is someone smoking turpentine again?

You can make excuses all day long but it won't change the fact that they weren't very good. They were..

They had no offense...

24 out of 30 on offense and 12 out of 30 on defense ...The #'s speak for themselves...Go back and find me a team that is 24 worst on offense that has ever been any good?

So you don't think Lebron being out for more than quarter of the season doesn't affect these numbers? You take Lebron off of those Cavs teams for more than a quarter of the year, and they'd suck too.

Bron of course would make a huge difference- ut they still had plenty of tme when he got back to make a move n the standings-- remember? him sayin he was "going into playoff mode" and theey they lost like 6 of 10 games and some to really shitty teams like the Suns?

If he cant find any of them, maybe he can borrow your ‘79 Dodge Dart?

So are we going to ignore the AD rumors? At that point, that team checked out. Guys like Ball and Ingram had little incentive for team success. It's been well documented on how that fucked up the chemistry with the Lakers.

Clowning on a legend like Riles.....

just for the record he came back on January 31st--- in a win vs. the Clippers

after that game- with LeBron back and averaging over 36 minutes a game--- they went 5-16 in their next 21 games with losses against Phoenix, Memphis, New Orleans, Atlanta AND even the fucking Knicks among others.

Not to mention LaVar Ball's shenanigans....let's see how the Pels handle that.

I ignore LaVarr Ball as I'm sure the Lakers had at that point.

Didnt the Cavs lose every game he didnt play , one season?

Yep.
LeBron gambled and lost.

another great point that i totally agree with- the team was full of soft young guys that were in their feelings about trade rumors and lacked any type of mental toughness that is required for a stretch run in the Western Conference. totally agree.
