Did TT ever get his balls back from Klowhee?

Yeah he is teabagging that 3 point line with that magnificent jumpshot of his

 

[dtgold88]

Joe Harris is a 3 point specialist. He's useful in that role and the Cavs never exploited it. Instead you got rid of him and brought in Korver to do the same thing for more money and less defense.

The Cavs who were competing for titles were supposed to wait on Harris and not get Korver?

Never mind, if you don't like the move to release him the guy many say the Cavs needed to keep was the one who let him go - David Griffin.

 

[dtgold88]

Or you could focus on the fact that he was 8-18 despite likely all of his shots coming in the paint. Or that despite taking all of those shots he only went to the line once.

His 5 offensive rebounds are pretty good though.

the 4 assists?

You were the one trying to disparage Harris as a G leaguer for the Cavs to make some unrelated point.

Oh the funny irony of this comment. I can think of one batshit crazy Cavs fan that has said overly homeristic nonstop nonsense for years. And his name rhymes with Ziggy.

And if I agree I call him out.....like I did when I questioned his comments about Butler missing opening night.

the 4 assists?

Sure. That's fine I guess.

Being -19 and 8-18 from the paint is not exactly the hall mark of an all-star.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Sure. That's fine I guess.

Being -19 and 8-18 from the paint is not exactly the hall mark of an all-star.

what about 60% from the field?

 

[dtgold88]

Ohh I'm sure he will but it seems to me he loves Cleveland. Still early just a suggestion

Don't get me wrong...I'm down with making him an offer.

 

[dtgold88]

one of the other funny things is him talking about Nunn like he is an actual prospect.

Right now Garland is 19 years old. Sexton is 20 years old. These guys are high level athletes with great work ethics that left school early because of their immense talent.

Kendrick Nunn is a 4 year college player from Oakland college that went undrafted and is 24 years old. This is Giannis' 7th season in the league and he is 24 years old. LOL. Donovan Mitchell is in his 3rd year in the league and is YOUNGER than Nunn.

shouldnt be a huge surprise that a 4 year college player that is 24 years old that is a consensus non-prospect has some immediate success- especially when gifted a large amount of playing time- but its clear that at the end of the day he was undrafted and a 4 year college player for a reason.

I wonder what Garland would look like right now if he was a 4 year college player and 24 years old - instead of just turning 19 a few months ago.

I would never say never, but sure seems like a better chance Nunn does not see an all rookie team than him seeing one.

Need to remember, you are dealing with a fanbase who thinks other fans hype their players while calling Tyler freaking Herro untouchable.

what about 60% from the field?

8-18 isn't 60%. It's 44%.

 

[dtgold88]

I'm not really negging the Cavs for not developing Harris. I was mostly responding to @dtgold88 trying to argue that Harris was some G leaguer.

I called him a G leaguer because he was a G leaguer.

 

[WiggyRuss]

8-18 isn't 60%. It's 44%.

what about 60%?

 

[flyerhawk]

what about 60%?

60% of what? Are you talking about his season FG%? We were talking about this game so why are you deflecting?

what do you think is more indicative? one g ame or 3 games?

 

[flyerhawk]

You might want to read up on a thread before you make foolish comments.

who was disparaging Harris? I was told by some Heat fans the Heat were adept at getting something out of G leaguers and the Cavs did not know how to use the league.

Apology accepted.

Ah ok. So your example of the Cavs using the G league effectively is a player that never played meaningfully for the Cavs?

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Another day...
Cavs get blown out.
Cavs fans worried about the Heat

 

[flyerhawk]

what do you think is more indicative? one g ame or 3 games?

Shane brought up his stats from last night as if they were impressive. They weren't. They were pretty average because his high point total was based on inefficient shooting and his +/- was worse than the final scoring margin.

 

[dtgold88]

Sure. That's fine I guess.

Being -19 and 8-18 from the paint is not exactly the hall mark of an all-star.

did I say his performance makes him an all star. You thinking Porter had a better game because he was a 0 while shooting 1-7?

You are really reaching today.

 

[dtgold88]

8-18 isn't 60%. It's 44%.

60% would be his season % with a PER of 27. Is that all star worthy?
