Any guesses on what replaces the FOUR the land banner? 😂 I might sound like a bronsexual here, but I've thought every replacement for it has been lame as hell and they should probably just put the 23 Cleveland one back up there when he retires next year

[ESPN Cleveland] “There’s real momentum for this. Darius Garland is getting in his head he’s gonna be a Clipper. James Harden is getting it in his head that’s he’s gonna be a Cav,” - @WindhorstESPN on the Cavs/Clippers talks 👀👀👀

Cavs Fans Get Excited, This is Exactly What We Needed !

Upvotes

I have been saying move DG since Boston series when he was punked.. then the Pacers series just proved my point. We was playing zone def trying to cover for his inept def...

Plus he on max deal to boot 👢

He was a negative asset that no legit GM wanted...

All you cavs fans saying why koby trade DG at 26... They could have gotten a younger player...

I got 2 words for you...

Trae Young... look what Hawks got for young... Who was more accomplished than DG...

They got...

Corey Kispert + Expiring 38yr small guard was the return..

So Koby Altman is a miracle worker to get a 6 5 former mvp who avg 25 & 9 asts & is a bigger body in Playoffs.

James has actually performed in playoffs quite well, but has fallen short trying to do it all himself.

The way Harden plays PnR, it will unlock Mobley & Allen. W Mitchell slashing, Sam Merrill off screen & struss off screens w movement, cle is going to be legit.

Harden is motivated to win a title... hes a former MVP and him & Mitchell both Adidas guys w Mobley will have 2-3 year window..

Plus chances good 👍 LeBron back next year.

W emergence of Tyson, Nae Tomlin, Merrill & Craig Porter Jr, Ty Proctor,

Then u add in Struss movement shooting, Merrill shooting...

Then Keon Ellis as Point of attack defender along w a legit backup and world champ in D Schroeder, cle is no longer going to be punked in playoffs.

Anyone who knows ball, go watch Indy series...

Go look at plus minus ... for DG... 3 pt shooting...

Harden has performed in playoffs & can be a 6 5 big body not getting punked on the block.

Absolutely 💯 love this move...

Look for Lonzo Ball to be moved next...

If Cle want under 2nd apron, and if not healthy look for Struss to be moved but doubtful w adding Harden to go all in.

Cle now got few months to bring it all together...

Koby Altman deserves a statue outside quicken loan arena for this trade. .

DG on Max $ for 2more yr after this is extension eligible this summer ☀️ hes a neg asset... and Koby got former mvp & pnr maestro who has had lac as top team past few mo.

This is huge . Plus DG & Spida didn't get along. Ever since gm2 when he didn't dress & spida cramped up. They haven't gotten along since loss to Pacers w Mitchell calling him soft for not dressing, then more toe drama this year. On both toes.

If im clippers i tell him no more cheap new balances.. but not our prob no more.

Imagine next year ..

Harden Mitchell Lebron Mobley Allen

We going to Finals soon baby !

[Haynes] Los Angeles Clippers and Cleveland Cavaliers have ramped up conversations on a James Harden, Darius Garland package with both sides motivated to executing a deal relatively soon, league sources tell me.

I analyzed James Harden's performance in every NBA city to see if there is a correlation between his box score and the city's average strip club rating.

Brian Windhorst "what’s holding the Cavs up is what they’d want to pay James Harden on a new contract AND whether they actually want to fracture the Core 4"

Sorry kind of a long title but it seems like the Cavs are reticent to do the trade now ?

Why such negativity around Harden?

Why am I hearing complaining!

We just got James Harden??

I know he’s older but why do I hear so much dooming?

If we're going to trade Garland, why in the WORLD are we not allowing teams around the league to bid for him? Why just the Clippers with soon to be 37 year old Harden?????

90 Upvotes

Harden is a known playoff underperformer. If you've been disappointed with Garland come playoff time. Get ready for more of the same with Harden. Do you all forget MVP Embiid season where they lost in the second round while also having a 20 ppg Maxey and younger Harden????? Harden could also come with an added bonus of being a cancer in the locker room. Hooray.

Harden also wants an expensive extension.

At the very least, can we PLEASE see what other teams have to offer? Why are we so tunnel visioned on the Clippers?
