Report: Cavs and Dellavedova far apart on new contract

[Nash]

he's only real skill is defense, unless you want to count not being a dumb ass as a skill. He plays within his limits.


He's there for defense AND insurance incase Kyrie and/or Mo go down.

Good to have on the roster for the right price.

well since irving and mo williams don't exactly play tough defense delly is needed

[BigTicket]

The real problem for the Cavs is that Shumpert was already overpaid so much, which makes it harder to sign other players to reasonable deals.

Delly is worth $8-10M over 4 years, but I don't blame him for trying to get more, I would do the same in his position.

They majorly overpaid shump. What's going on with JR? Both of those guys are like 100 times better than delly. He's seriously only worth like $1m per, obviously he wants more and who wouldn't try in that situation, but honestly he is garbage and could be replaced with any backups backup pg..

Lmao. Shumpert is extremely overrated and I think most people think he's good because he has "swag".

He's a horrible offensive player. In the finals it was apparent how bad he was when he was missing wide open layups. Delly was bringing the ball up because atleast Delly has some vision and passing skills even if Delly has atrocious handling skill. Only thing he's got going for him offensively is that he's an okay shooter and athletic.

Shump is a lockdown defender and JR is an above average defender.

JR is an average defender.

[bobopenguin]

what? this trash want 10mil a year contract too?
the league is going to lock out soon.

[Derka]

I don't care how high your cap is, you don't pay that guy $4 million a f*cking year.

[TheMilkyBarKid]

They should start talking to Norris Cole.

[TylerOO]

OH DARN WE CANT LOSE DELADIVA.

Who cares

[AcquiringSteak]

LOL no player is bigger than the club

...

except maybe LeBron

[Overdrive]

Anything above the league minimum is too much. His game isn't even build on D, it's build on hustle and toughness. He's basically a bruiser at the PG position. Put any other scrub who's willing to put his body on the line on the court and you'll have the same outcome.

[Nastradamus]

Lol what? He gets the minimum or see ya

Shumpert's actually projected to outperform his deal fwiw
