10 Years ago the Cavs drafted Dajuan Wagner in the first round from Memphis.

Lebron was sandwiched between Dajuan Wagner and Luke Jackson

Did he even come close to leading team USA in scoring despite those exact same circumstances?

The funny thing is going to be that Durant is still going to take Durant shots every game. He shouldn't have to, but he is an iso player and he'll still take a lot of contested one on one shots. He's obviously still making the team even better because he's one of the best shot makers, but I don't think they're going to be THAT much better offensively.

Klay is probably so happy. He gets to sit back and watch everyone else do the group project now while he collects his A.

Word up to the 2015 finals!

I still think they were better, and think a healthy Steph would have been the difference in the FInals. Like the prior season, a healthy Cavs team wins that Finals. A healthy Warriors team would have won last year's Finals.

I dont think you realize how much of elite and lock down defenders MJ Pippen and Rodman were. MJ would eat Curry alive, Pippen would eat klay and Rodman would make Green feel real uncomfartable. It be over in the second quarter

the fact that he drives is a new dynamic harrison wasnt doing

And now instead of leaving harrison open its gonna be klay or kd every time

They probably wont win 73 but they should hit 68 minimum

The Bulls would beat them 4-1 in a 7 game series

A defensive back court of Kyrie Irving and JR Smith held those threes in check.

Not really

See what you're forgetting is that Cleveland made 3's too. Chicago didnt

Warriors shot 37% as a team from 3 in the finals. Averaging 36 attempts per game

During the season they were 1st with 31 attempts per game. They shot 41% during the season, but the 2nd place team shot 37% so 37% in the finals is still elite

Regardless, Chicago is a far better defensive team than anything in the league right now

Oh shit, the tickets I won for the Cavs game are for the game against the Sixers this saturday. I get to watch Embiid in person. My large adult son will finally meet his father.
