    TL/DR

    We made the best moves we could given what we have & what we needed. The Cleveland Cavaliers definitely improved.

    Basically the first hour of the video is entirely CAVS talk. McNuggets is really on point with his takes. They breakdown each of our signings.

    I always have the potential to be Captain Knee jerk reaction and my original opinion, day of, was that we overpaid for budget Klay Thompson (Strus), and picked up budget Kevin Love at market value.

    I was pretty disappointed in the overpay, but I am kinda leaning that it’s just where the market is heading, if it’s not already there.

    After listening to McNuggets and Lloyd’s perspective I have much more hope!

    The floor spacing should add much more versatility offensively, and not only offer more offensive looks, but more open looks. All the while opening up the paint, for Mobley to work.

    Last season I thought we were about 4th best in the EAST, I still think we’re about 4th, but there’s hope for much better play in the playoffs.

    Most importantly, we didn’t lose anything on Defense with our moves.

    For better or worse it’s ALL up to JB Bickerstaff to *show us what you’ve got!*

    Our Corner (3) % percentage % just went through the damn roof.

    Last point: Strus isn’t Delly, but he’s constantly running around making him harder to pin down on defense and wearing out defenders. Adding an *effort guy*, which we haven’t had for a while, is definitely a net positive as well.
