They thought he’d stay

Udoka hiring is probably the rEason he’s not there
I don’t think they thought he was worth the money. I don’t either.

Pascal really wanted to stay but the team is clearly moving in a different direction.

That said, I'm fine with running Dolan out of the league. One condition; he needs to send me some of his guitars.
Yeah and some free time in that new dome in Vegas would be cool too.

Shit, I wanted O’Neale.

Thoughts on Hunter with the Cavs?

I guess either O'Neale/Hunter would be interesting and I like to read the rumors but I don't put too much into it...as usual, my guess is if we make a move it could be one we didn't see coming.

Could use a shooter like O'neale....but he has been beyond bad in playoffs last 2 seasons.

I would def. take either one- not sure what we can trade though--- not really any draft pick capital....

Cavs have talent--- Garland is coming back...Mobley not far behind that--- its just 2 questions

1. Are they experienced/mature enough?

2. Can the coach get the most out of the talent?

IT seems they have played some of their best basketball with less talent and less mouths to feed. Does JB have the gravitas to get guys to sacrifice and work together?

Its apparent how valuable Allen is to them defensively and as a big---- how can they get Garland and Mobley integrated in a way where they can challenge good teams? Cavs have talent- but if they think O Neale or Hunter is a missing piece defensively on the perimeter and can get one of them- I would go for it---- but the story of this team will be told on how the main guys work together.

I dont think many people would question that the Cavs have a lot of very solid young talent on the team- and did a nice job adding some shooters they really needed.
Either player would be interesting and not sure how much I'd put into this team based on what you have seen this season....only because so many key guys have missed so much time.

Have heard some guys don't fit and maybe true but I don't believe it. I mean, the 2 short guards and 2 nonshooting bigs were together last year and we had a top 10 offense and THE top defense......and that was without some guys we really could have used last year but now have - Niang, Strus, TT, Merrill and CPJ.

He may be the worst sob in the world, I don’t know. But being accused of something means nothing, and having it come out that it was a decade ago means less. I’m for punishing anyone that is convicted, anything else is just rumor.

So they cut a check behind the scenes and thus her/her family would not corroborate with the investigation, huh
Or maybe, as reported, the family felt very bad that their daughter deceived Giddey into a one night stand by illegally gaining entrance to an 18 and over bar. Hopefully all involved learned valuable lessons, including total idiots trying to turn the case into a grooming thing. We all deserve to be treated better than that.

Ok now that Giddeys name has been 100 % cleared it’s time to talk trade possibilities. He is the piece the Thunder can do without and he doesn’t always really fit with what they are trying to do. Giddey, Bertans and a 1st for Markenan. Let’s get it done.

Bingo

You don’t go on video recording yourself saying you’re “dating Josh” if it was a one night stand

You don’t go talking to her brother either if you had any inkling. If I’m Giddey I’m suing the shit out of people but I’m sure he’s glad it’s over.
