Kyrie to Boston rumors heating up. Deal nearly complete

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Probably accurate but i trust kyrie more in the playoffs than IT. Thomas is easier to defend in a best of 7 imo

Without a doubt.
I still think Celts would have lost to Bulls if Rondo wasn't injured.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Crowder is signed up long term--- and they get Isiah...and a pick

Honestly- the best i hoped for was Bledsoe and Jackson---- or Wiggins and cap filler.

Instead you get a 3 and D wing who is perfect for the team---- a guy that can replace 80% of Irvings scoring- and a huge trade chip.

I mean- dont get me wrong- i would have preffered Irving not be loco en el cabeza....but as far as how I thought they would do- to what they actually got---- they did a lot better than i would have thought.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Boston is now the fave in the EC.

No DJ....

you must not have read it right

we traded Irving. Not LeBron.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

lol.....what?

then why get Isiah? what are you talking about?

They are just as likely to flip the Nets pick at the deadline as keep it.

Isiah is fine for this year.
You really want to max him?

before that decision is made I want to see how he plays and if LeBron is coming back.

If LeBron is coming back- of course----- its not my money

shit- maybe Westbrook goes down with an injury and the Thunder put George back on the market....who the hell knows.

All I know is that--- if you are looking at the short term- Isiah and Crowder is better than Kyrie---- and the Cavs have their best trade chip they have had since LEBron has been back.

 

[WiggyRuss]

oh God...

this hsould be interesting.

Ive never rooted for a team who is the favorite in their conference but also will be one of the favs for the #1 pick.....

Imagine somehow that pick comes through---the fucking value that it will hold will be immense...whether they keep it or deal it.

 

[WiggyRuss]

fuck i actually have to root for the Lakers not to suck now and be better than the Nets...lol.

 

[DJ]

Cavs will still be well over the salary cap. That changes next year if IT re-signs considering he'll be a free agent. It only helps Gilbert in luxury tax savings.

That cannot be right. Danny boy is uber-rich.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

LeBron to the Knicks might also be in the works...

jus' sayin'

 

[Wamu]

Oh just fucking great! First the Celtics draft a player from dook & now they could trade for Mr. Flat Earth himself?


............

 

[WiggyRuss]

can someone please tell me if Shump is gone?

please---- oh please

They need to keep that pick. After LeBron leaves they are wise to let Thomas walk, dump salary and build around that great pick

 

[tlance]

Absolutely horrific trade for Boston. They have no chance against Cleveland this year, and now there is actually a chance LeBron could stick in Cleveland. The Cavs are MUCH better from this deal. Today and in the future.

 

[WiggyRuss]

LeBron to the Knicks might also be in the works...

jus' sayin'

yah- LeBron always plays at least 2 games in the Garden a year...dont worry- i dont see that changing. lol

u bein serious?

dude- all i have to say is Joakin Noah.

Boston added Heyward, Tatum, and Irving (he's a better payer than IT).....scoring was their big issue in the postseason. Not now.

Great trade for both Teams.

But, Cavs got better for the short and long term by getting that pick.

I know Gordon Hayward doesn't know if he should scratch his watch, or wind his ass.

This is not the Team he signed up to play with....lol

Crowder, Br

 

[Wamu]

can someone please tell me if Shump is gone?

please---- oh please

My inside NBA sources told me that your Cavs will be getting rid of Shumpert by the end of the week & replacing him w/ Jammin' Jimmer Fredette.

 

[bksballer89]

Wouldn't have made this move if I'm Boston. Only would have done it if it was straight up or IT/Crowder for Kyrie.

 

[WiggyRuss]

why not see where it comes in and trade it for a stud and have Thomas, LEBron, Love and Stud you get for a top 3 pick?

I mean shit- George would be a Celtic right now if Danny would have given them a top 3 pick. ????


I mean- i get what yo uare saying-- if LeBron leaves that jump starts the rebuild--- but if he stays trade it for a stud and resign Thomas.

and you have Crowder forever- who at the very least- if LeBron goes is a nice trade chip.

I mean--- id rather Kyrie not have been crazy---- but its hard for me to imagine the Cavs getting a better package than a guy who will replace 80% of his produciton- a 3 and D wing they badly needed on a long term cheap contract- and a guaranteed lotto pick.
