Harden lands in Brooklyn

[lebron23james]

Irving won't suit up for them, care to wager?

Don't bet against your master next time

Yeah, he's in ballhog mode....

KD and Harden combine for 11 assists.....Irving 0.

Do you have to pass when you are hitting nearly every shot you take?

He's 8 of 13.

Durant and Harden have combined for 13 attempts.....

He's clearly trying to get his points and not care about anything else.

Thanks for reminding me you don't know shit about basketball.

3 years from now Jarrett Allen will be the best player in this trade.

Kyrie also makes them smaller and worse defensively. You can make a good case they don't need him back.

So far in the first half of Kyrie being back...Kyrie clearly looks like the 2nd best player out of the core 3 players

Just deadly on offense, similar to Durant

Kyrie is closer to being the 4th best player on that team than he is the 2nd best.

It is stuff like this why people don’t take you seriously.

If he had been traded to the Grizzlies instead of the Cavs, you would not be posting this.

In 3 years Harden will still probably be the best player in the deal and LeVert and Dipo will still be better than Allen.

Steve Nash has a lot of work to do.

Why did @lebron23james stop posting?

i know you said this earlier in the thread and new you would again.

just wanted to put it down here for posterity.

Allen is 22, can shoot, can defend, block shots and rebound.

your post will not age well.

Dipo in 3 years is going to be a shell.

Harden already has a ton of miles and will be in his mid thirties

Allen will be in his prime.

just let this marinate a while.

earlier in the offseason i was ranking the best bigs in the East- and even though Allen was coming off the bench and there was not a word of going to teh Cavs i had him on the list.'

rebounds per minute and blocks per minute he is top 3 in the league. If he qualified shooting wise hed have the 2nd highest shooting % in the league.

LOL.

Ok man. Let’s check this out in 3 years.

It will be right there with some of your other awesome calls.

Allen is a solid player. To be the best in this deal 3 years from now he will need to be an all NBA type player.

That is highly unlikely.

 

[WiggyRuss]

And- gotta give some major credit here to Bam

65% from the flor on almost 11 shots a game is pretty dope.

 

[WiggyRuss]

LOL.

you think James Harden is going to be all NBA player 3 years from now?

the guy parties his ass off, doesnt take care of himself, and has more high leverage minutes than anyone in the NBA the last 5 years with how he plays.

Oladipo has had some major injuries and was already - at best - the third best Pacer after Sabonis and Brogdon.

 

[WiggyRuss]

i just really hope the Cavs lose enough games to get one more high talent wing in the draft and then start moving forward. They need another wing though--- Okoro is going to be good- and defensively he could be truly great....but they need one more guy- and can then start going.

its not going to happen anytime soon---- young teams rarely rarely win in the NBA....but they are close to having their core with Garland, Sexton, Okoro and Allen.

Harden doesn’t play a lot of defense, he is strong as a bull, ridiculously skilled and does not rely on explosiveness much at all. He wins matchups because of skill and strength.

For as much as he parties, he keeps in very good shape.

Yes, I think he is likely to still be an all NBA player in 3 years. Probably not an MVP candidate, but still a no doubt all star. He game is likely to age well.
