I did a thread just about this question. The team is more than those 3, who are still among the best big 3 in the league (there are better top twos but I can't think of a better top 3) and will be for a few more years. They aren't even close to old yet. They have a dynamic young piece that will either make them even better or be dealt for other young pieces that make them better. The stellar front office will make more brilliant moves. Giannis is very much on their radar, for example.

And odds are just odds, what were Toronto's odds to start last year? Time for other teams to have horrible injury luck.

The only thing that's changed is they went from one of the 3 best teams in NBA history to one of many contenders. The Cavs aren't contenders now, and never will be. They are doing what they can of course, but unless they get another gigantic bit of lottery luck (a #1 pick the year a LeBron-level talent is there), they aren't winning dick.

But again, the facts are undeniable:

1. The Warriors will win a title before the Cavs
2. Probably in the next few years (they are already designing the ring)
3. The Warriors are the reason your team got barely one title.

I will say, the Browns are the exciting story of the NFL right now and I hope they do well. But that's a separate issue.

did you really use the word, "probably" and call it a fact in this case?

Those were all opinions. "barely one" No more a title is a title?

transitive property to TurnUP.

In this case he will need someone to help him, I'm sure.

If you can read and comprehend, I said if he was just making fun of his perception of job, so what?

What was reported was he was posting actual real names and other personal stuff because he was in meltdown mode. I wasn't on that site so I can't confirm or deny, but @Mecca was and she confirmed.

Still waiting for you to show where I wrote Cavs would suck for a decade.
Having search issues?
don't really care to look. Thought you said it and still do. If not, so be it...and if I find it it's not like you'd own up to the gaffe.

I'd find it
you'd deflect
I'd get called out for arguing
I'd remind them person I replied to was arguing with me
I'd be told sure.....not you it's us

If those players were internally fighting, maybe it would come up.
I would say their salaries do indicate who is the better player.

Fact is, that here, we have @WiggyRuss saying he is more qualified then Pat Riley.
You don't see the difference?
I've seen many of us here say players, coaches, FO people, etc. suck at their jobs.

Can SportsHoopla have a default reply to that about them making more money than the poster who ripped them?

But TurnUp did try to make a point by saying Riley had more money.

Poster not post much?

Money earned based on SUCCESS.
That was the point.
You don’t find it odd that @WiggyRuss feels he is more qualified then Pat Riley to run an NBA team?

How many times here, have you seen a poster honestly say they are more qualified for the job?
That’s only thing we’re talking about.

Aren't you one who thinks others can’t comprehend?

Where the fuck did @WiggyRuss go?
Oh yeah.
I posted fact and asked him to bet on his guarantee.

Of course he’s gone.

Cavs at 22 wins...?

i'll take the under...:lol:

If it less, its caused they intentionally lost.
If its more, its because they did a great job.

Either way, to be predicted to lose 75% of the time isn’t so great.

Hey @WiggyRuss. Lets go hog wild and say they overachieve and win 25.
All you gotta do is average winning 55+ next 3 seasons and 9 playoffs games to back up your words!

You still guaranteeing?

Sure, all true
And it's also true that the improbable has already happened, and will not happen again
Even a smart basketball guy like Wiggy knows it, that's why I have him so angry
while I agree with many of your points, doesn't strike me as the melt down/angry type over opinions.

Curious...what was the guarantee.

Not sure I'd be ripping the Cavs, though, as in year 6 of a rebuild and signing a stud FA (as a FA destination) they have Miami at barely better than average.
