    Irving cannot stay in front of quick guards or even attempt to keep with them.

    Lebron sulks and gives up and shows bad leadership qualities when the team needs him most.

    The bench has little to no impact and a bunch of geriatrics.

    The coach let's opposing teams go on large scoring runs and fails to call timeouts. The offense looks worse than where it should be.

    At this point, I have more faith in the Raptors or wizards making noise.

    Well said.

    The Cavs problem is more about expectations than anything else. Lebron is also suffering from burnout. He should actually take a year off and play football or something.

    Valid points for sure and I agree however there is only so much money to hand over ie Irving just got the max, Lebron and Love will want the max, AV just got an extension for $10m which doesn't leave much left

    TT would flourish on teams like the Suns who need a starting PF who can do all the dirty work and someone who can protect their point guards as their current front court doesn't strike fear, Knicks, well enough said there, Utah (I think a Kanter for TT has merits for both teams), and maybe a Denver deal involving McGee (I'm sure the nuggets was out of his contract and the Cavs are desperate size) and JJ Hickson who would probably flourish if he returned

    Cavs fans are showing feelings of entitlement like Lakers fans.

    Lets do a Gerald Green for Tristan Thompson straight up. The cavs can get rid of Waiters from there.

    I would do this trade, helps ball movement plus removes one big ego from the team.

    I was thinking about this trade today actually bradley for waiters... great trade for both teams. we get a starting 2 that can create his own shot at will, make some plays with all star upside..and cavs get a lock down defender that can hit spot up 3s light out and knows how to move without the ball....perfect fit for lebron and kyrie

    Cavs need a floor general and they don't need to trade for another scoring point guard so that's why Rondo fits

    Whether it happens or not that's another story (I'm sure DA would role the dice), but Rondo would get the whole team involved and Love would especially benefit as he flourished playing with a pass first point guard in Rubio!
    As a celtic fans Yes..the hell are you talking about...?... If they actually offered this trade to us Management would have rondo shipped out in 2 seconds..

    Yeah I know but I'm sentimental, and I still think Paul Pierce is walking through that door!

    Agreed this would probably be too hard to resist and Irving fits the Celtics youth movement

    rondo is not going to fit well with a lebron James team. He needs a player like curry. Can you imagine all the open 3s?

    People are way too quick to try to find problems with the Cavs roster right now. They just need time to gel. Kyrie is better than Rajon already, and he is younger. Plus, his shooting ability makes him a better fit for LeBron.
