James Harden As A Cleveland Cavalier

Who needs James when you have amen as your PG FOH, what a joke of a front office

 

If he wants a crack at Championship, should have demanded a trade to either Boston or Detroit.

(With Cade, Detroit would not need him)

Or the Spurs as Thunder do not want him back. Nuggets, they do not want to absorb that much.

 

Man, I don’t know what it would’ve taken to bring Harden here but James would’ve solved a lot of the issues that Houston is having. His handle, his 3, and his offense in general. I don’t know if he can get to the finals with Cleveland but they are going to be a tough team.

 

Nah, they listened to the absolute garbage incompetent Udoka.

Why would you bring a literal offensive juggernaut in, when you can listen to the head coach who has never heard of an offensive play in his entire life.

 

I love James, but I still get why they passed. The price likely would have been too high. Garland is a mid-20 something all-star with perfect matching salary. I truly hope he gets a ring with Cleveland. He creates so many easy shots for big men it's crazy. Think about how good he made scrubs like Omer Asik, Tarik Black and Christian Wood look offensively Jarret Allen is gonna get the Zubac glow-up. I actually think Cleveland Detroit would be a hell of an EFC.

Makes it all the more sad that it didn't work with Dwight in the mid teens. Dwight should have been a 25+ ppg scorer if he bought into setting picks and rolling hard instead of trying to prove to Shaq that he can post up.

 

@HardenVolumeOne aka @RocketsDraftTV aka @StroudAndYorDaddy keep that same energy when Harden chokes in the playoffs again.

 

James Harden is a regular season floor raiser. In the playoffs you can game plan for him and limit what he does well.

 

Honeymoon Harden.

 

Harden balling out.

 

Even if Harden were to miss time, they have Schroder ready to bring the ball up. Jealous.

 

Harden’s efficiency plummets when he tries to play through injuries

at least for the Cavs he’s only taking 12 shots a game, and they’re only playing him 32 mpg which is the lowest amount by far since his last season in OKC

 

New excuse for playoffs choke job unlocked.

 

Exactly. And Keon.

Look what Dennis did tonight without Spyda in a tough loss. Cleveland acquired James and DS who are great facilitators for bigs and mismatch nightmares.

We just didn't want to make a decent offer.

And, I think James' latest injury will make him more determined to help Donovan bring the Cavs back to the finals. He knows the hate he gets, especially for postseason games.

Until the Knicks put Towns in the post and have him pick and pop the unlike he did in Minny, they're not going anywhere (Though, No Way Jose will end up being the best trade deadline deal, along with Dennis/KE/Harden). Similarly to Alpi, you don't need your center playing like Jaren Jackson and wasting size and touch in the post.

When James learns to play with his injury (props to fighting through it), the Cavs look deadly. Sypda and James with and healthy Mobley and JAllen to go with their snipers (Sam and Dean) will be tough. I'm rooting for them in the East.

And, I think the Rockets will make a strong run to end the season with home court. My worry is a matchup with Minnesota or Portland in the first round. Gotta avoid that and let the Lakers fall apart more and more, especially with Ayton going back to being worthless. I'd take Capella over him any day.

Wish you well.
