The catch 22 cavaliers

The catch 22 cavaliers
This is also still ringing true. This is the Cavs team moving forward. They can trade one of the core 4 to improve. But trading garland or Allen will be very hard.
The trades that do work won’t necessarily improve the team.
They can either hit the reset button. Or continue to run it back.

This is essentially our core now
The only way we can improve the team from here is dealing one of the core 4
Really hope they raise a trophy in the next 3 years

I’ve been thinking about this trade for almost a full year now.
My gut told me at the time it was a mistake. Starting to feel that way again with Hunter recent stretch.
Caris was really good at setting up the bigs and initiating offense
Hunter is a bad passer rebounder and off ball defender

My gut reaction is the cavs finally have a legit swing but people are largely overrating hunters defense and vastly underrating Caris’s ability to dribble pass and shoot
Cpj and Ty are going to have to really step up (they have to this point)
But man this is risky to me 1/2

Cavs would get a huge haul for him
Could still keep Mobley Allen garland
To me that is the smartest way out
Do they do this? Probably not
Don will be 30 next year. Once he loses even half a step he’s a completely different player. I really hope the front office is smart enough to realize this

I’m not necessarily doom and gloom and think there future is fucked
Fans don’t want to hear it but this might just be a year from hell
I have no idea how they improve the roster dramatically going forward because of the 2nd apron
What would presti do? I think he would trade Mitchell

The Cavs were 56-11 at the time garland sprained his toe last year
They are 21-27 since
officially sounding alarm bells in Cleveland
Fans are gonna hate this but I’m imagining a scenario where Cleveland’s forced to run it back again
Not because they want to but because of the new rules

The only trade giannis trades i see shifting the title odds are any that involve the knicks or hawks
A spurs trade would make them a better title bet NEXT YEAR imo. Not this year. Think they would need an offseason to iron out the bench.
Who knows tho. Maybe wemby and giannis is good enough now

Cavs really might have something in Tomlin. His energy translating against a team like the rockets and Durant will likely earn him a contract.

I’ve seen enough thus far to put Caleb Wilson ahead of AJ Dybantsa I think
Is there much difference between their size and athleticism? No
AJ is a better self creator.
But that’s about it. I think Caleb is more advanced in defense and the passing feel has been better then AJ

I think the rockets have a real chance at the title this year
I really fear they might be the next okc level team
They probably would have been this year if not for Fred getting hurt
Reed having a 5 bpm is INSANE

The state of the Cavs is very concerning
Even with the injuries they have they shouldn’t be struggling to get a rhythm with a no Ja grizzlies
Don needs to understand with no Darius he HAS to be a playmaker

I think there is a very good chance Trae young signs for significantly less than his value
The second apron is going to create this until the punt the rules
Teams are going to be forced to decide on their cores and punt the rest
I really do not like this. It feels like forced parity.

Encouraging data especially given the injuries which is why I’m not quite panicking especially since it’s November
buuuut Garlands health is now more essential then ever. If he has to be shut down until February then so be it.

Early season Cavs thoughts
Jaylon and Sam playing this well is huge!
We have 2 players who can drive the ball which isn’t good at all and the main reason I’m very worried about their future
Mobley largely looks the same as last year to me. Still would like to see more usage!

The knicks have a center and guard with defensive issues
Why then is everyone picking the knicks over cavs? Cavs in theory are the perfect team to exploit this.
Cle also won regular season series last year 4-0 (wasn’t really close)
Think folks need to think a little more critically imo

Again it’s different because NY will look way different offensively this year but I’m sorry i really like the match up for Cleveland now
People pointing to 2023 need to use glasses to understand that was 3 years ago
Cedi Osman was a key part of our rotation lmao

Knicks have MB coaching now so it’ll look different but based on the matchups from last year idk why people are coming so quick to that conclusion
The one game NY almost beat us don sat out and we trailed the whole game

been mentally done with the browns for about a year. They have no chance at competing until the entire thing is torn down and replaced.
HOWEVER
The draft class gives me a sliver of hope. A sliver.
Hope they go the ensemble route of building instead of crossing your fingers a qb hits

Ah yes another sign that we’re doing great!
The Chinese government has unveiled a program to woo foreign talent -- right as the US admin is cracking down on H-1B visas.
China Rolls Out Its First Talent Visa as the US Retreats on H-1Bs
The Chinese government unveiled a program to woo foreign talent just as the US cracked down on H-1Bs with a $100,000 fee. The move immediately provoked xenophobic backlash.
