Something’s Off About the Cleveland Cavaliers
There’s a huge problem with the Cleveland Cavaliers they have dominated the league for over a month but something is not right since December 15th when they lost two of their best players to surgery they went from the playin to the two seed an MVP level Donovan Mitchell number two defense in
The NBA what you need to win a championship but the rumors won’t stop a brand new report there’s no doubt Donovan Mitchell is leaving once his contract ends says an Eastern conference executive echoing a belief held by many around the league how is that even possible when they’re so good well the
Answer is what spider really thinks about his teammates the Cavs took a huge gamble just to get Donovan Mitchell they traded Colin seon Lori marinin o’sa agbaji three first and three swaps they went all in because they doubled their win total from 2021 to 22 Darius Garland
Was a firsttime All-Star Evan moble just miss rookie of the year so when spider came on the market they had to outbid the Heat and Knicks in fact spider thought New York was a done deal he was shocked to be in Cleveland cuz as Jem Noah said you like it you think
Cleveland’s cool I mean I never heard anybody say I’m going to Cleveland on vacation what’s so good about Cleveland but Donovan said I’m going to make this work he and Garland were an amazing backourt with the number one defense in the league a dangerous four seed no one
Wanted to face in the playoffs they almost got swept in the first round what happened rumors said Donovan Mitchell was not happy and ESPN reporter said I don’t think there’s any chance he signs an extension there ever remember all they gave up if Donovan leaves it would
Be a disaster you’re almost forced to trade him but instead they doubled down the front office sign Shooters Max stru and George Nang a lot was writing on this season that started terrible blown double digit lead to OKC blown out by the Blazers people were openly talking about firing their coach Cleveland still
Don’t love the Garland Mitchell combo and the Mobi Allen combo this does not feel like a finished team to me but that’s not what’s going to change first the coach is going to change weirdly everything Bill Simmons just said is correct except for firing JB bicker
Staff because as soon as Garland and Moy got injured the team took off they won 15 of 19 games defense held 12 teams to under 103 points insane in today’s NBA and Donovan Mitchell became an MVP candidate it turns out he is so much better not sharing the ball before the
Injuries Cleveland ranked 25th on offense ninth on defense but without Garland and Mobley number six offense first on D now some of that was their schedule the C CES beat up on like the Wizards the Spurs the Grizzlies but they also had a 40o win over the bucks on
National TV and double digits over the Clippers this team is for Real in the regular season they did this exact thing last year 50 plus wins Allstar Donovan Mitchell and got embarrassed even their own GM is saying calm down when we acquired Donovan we wanted to make sure
It wasn’t Championship or bus last year and it’s not this year what your team is dominating oh we do think we have the talent level to compete with the best but we’re still young and that is the problem Donovan Mitchell hears that and thinks I am out last season after they
Lost to the Knicks spider let us know how he really feels it sucks this is my sixth time sitting up here in the first second round having the same press conference you know for for me it feels a little different than these guys but I think they’re in a place where they
Understand it’s a tough lesson to learn it’s a tough lesson to learn but got to go through these things exactly you have to lose in the playoffs to take steps it’s normal they’re a young team but spida is past that he’s already gone through this phase on the Jazz he took
Them to the playoffs every year losing in the first round three times the second round twice he just said this is my sixth press conference saying the same thing I’m done I am ready to move on not being on a young team just taking these steps spida sees himself as a vet
Who is ready to win and he’s right dude’s almost 28 years old in the middle of his prime that is why rumors say he wants the heat the veteran Knicks the Lakers want him it’s not that spider hates his teammates he seems like he loves them but he’s not on their
Timeline no hard feelings it’s just business so NBA execs say He is 100% gone unless unless they do something crazy if they lose in the first or second round they could go all in on Donovan Mitchell by trading Darius Garland and Evan Mobley I know that sounds insane but do you know the
Veteran Talent they could get they would go from Young team to win now overnight we just saw how well spider plays as the only point guard maybe having a guy who’s even smaller than him in the back Court’s a Bad Thing Garland wasn’t all star before spider got there he’s 24
Years old that would get a huge Haul on the trade market but dealing Evan Mobley would be a bigger risk he was picked number three in 2021 compared to Kevin Garnett or Anthony Davis sure enough he was first team old defense by year two but his offense did not take a leap
Instead of MVP comps his ceiling might be Rudy goar which is amazing obviously but Jared Allen is is already a center who can’t shoot threes it’s a waste to have two of those guys on your roster now recently Mo’s outside shot has been hitting but spider doesn’t have time for
Him to develop they could get any Star on the market with Garland and Moy and I would argue Donovan Mitchell actually needs a better player than him on his team to win a championship not many people would disagree with that what better way to get that player than
Trading a great young Garland and Moy cfan do not want to hear that it will be the discussion if they lose in the first or second round choose the young guys or choose Donovan Mitchell you can’t have both but there is one other path that they could take NBA reporter Mark Stein
Says I know of at least two teams on the NBA map that believe LeBron James would consider signing with them at far less than his $ 51.4 million Lakers salary if bronny James is on the roster and most people believe the Cavs are one of those teams Cleveland has its own first round
Pick in the upcoming bronny draft but how would LeBron feel about that uh actually he just said this before the Donovan Mitchell trade the door is not closed on me returning to Cleveland I’m not saying I’m coming back and playing I don’t know I don’t know what my future
Holds what and now they’re the number two seat in the East yes he would consider it the Lakers didn’t make a move at the trade deadline and angered LeBron James if the Cavs have a much better roster and bronny it would be easy for Bron to want to finish his
Career where it started so the Cavs are a great story but it is far from over and a ton of drama could still happen speaking of drama behind the scenes why did Mark Cuban sell the Dallas Mavericks he was like the last owner you ever think would sell and I actually didn’t
Expect much from this video but but it’s going viral right now because apparently a lot of you actually did want to know the actual reason for this that Cuban does not want us to know
The Cavs have shot up the East standings the last month just when 2 of their top 5 players got injured. Now they are healthy and still winning but underneath the surface, something is off in Cleveland.

Bron in Land Chapter 3
I mean, regardless of how far they get in the playoffs, the writing is on the wall.
He doesn't want to be there long term, nothing against the Cavs organization and the players, though. They have a great young core in Garland, Mobley, and Allen.
Whether its NY, Brooklyn, Miami, or LA, he's leaving this off-season. Donovans probably has always seen himself playing for a big market team since he was a kid. Especially NY.
I feel like half the comment section didnt even watch the video to the halfway point lol
If y'all really think Mitchell is gonna replicate what he has in Cleveland on another team , y'all are buggin
Klay to the Cavs …confirmed
sounds like those two who got injured about to get traded next season
Not sure what kind of narrative this is. They also actually won more after and during donovan mitchell was getting benched from his injury.
What actaully happend was that Spida realised he can play of ball because his team can actually win without him. Because yes cavs won a lot of games without him during his time injuries.
Also cavs added shooters like Max strus, Sam merrill, georges niang.
Also rookie Craig Porter junior has had some very good minutes after donovan's injury, one the the biggest reasons we won without Spida on the court.
I just don't really like the narrative you are creating out of some pretty baseless rumors and some rash conclusions.
You're just over looking 90% of what the cavs are doing and insulting coach JB in the process for a team that is at it's second season together and who also had to deal with lot's of injuries during last season and this one.
Even with all these injuries, the small market and the disrespect cavaliers are the second best team of the eastern conference in standing with a record of 36 wins for 17 losses.
Yes they lost last season to a bad knicks squad but they addressed their issues, 3 point shooting and relying too much and Spida and Garland isos.
You have absolutely 0 nuance in your conclusion but obviously it's giga click bait and you are trying to get views I get it but at least don't insult the coach and the players in doing so.
Btw Levert best scoring player of the bench also.
Nah just trade mitchell.
If mitchell was not in clev this year we would be seeing mobleg developing into allstar now
Lebron will be there soon
This guy has got to be the worst NBA YouTuber. He always talks about and mocks the “media” but he is no better. He only spreads toxic misinformation
Wanna win now? Join Denver as 6th man. Hahaha
Imagine the biggest story of the 2024 draft being a second rounder all to get that players dad
PLEASE leave us alone…we trying to him happy here 😢
Your content is getting worse every Video….
Anything can happen but recent reports say that Spida is happy with his team and that he was visibly disappointed when the knicks made 2 trades this year and never once tried to get him while giving away all their best young players. He even said in a room full of reporters "guess I wasn't worth trading Quentin Grimes for" after the trade with Detroit. Obviously he still loves NY but whatever relationship he seems to have had with the Knicks seems to have soured a bit. Seems to me, baring a massive playoff collapse, he is going to secure his bag and stick around with this Cavs team this summer
Giannis didn’t play in that 40 point blowout if I’m not mistaken. Go Cavs Tho
Lebron doesn't make the Cavs better
The Cavs are literally in 2nd huhhh
This is so fucking stupid. An "Eastern Conference executive" is your source? Someone with a vested interest in creating the narrative that Spida is leaving? I'm astounded that people think your ball opinions are worth listening to.
What are you gonna say when he winds up staying? These sources all sound phony af
Bron going to Cleveland if they’re able to keep most of they’re roster might actually push them over the edge to being full on finals contenders
Look at they record
The Lakers aren't worried that LeBron will be gone in a few years. If you just get 3 good seasons from a player it's fine. The Cavs have a good roster and some promising young players.
Cavs win a bajillion games straight.
Youtubers:
The way the media is constantly pushing this narrative about Donovan Mitchell leaving the Cavs is so frustrating. Let the man play and enjoy his time with his team!
Spida is going to my Knicks 😅😅
Almost 500k subs 🎉
I'd trade Garland, not Mobley.
This is what's wrong with the leauge. The media will put out that any starplayer is leaving, or should be. That they're unhappy with the team and are wastinf their careers/ legacies! They hate players in small markets, especially one that is considered a star. If they play great they want to leave. If they're hurt or playing bad it's because they want to leave. That's why the leauge is declining now. Every star goes to like the same 4 teams!!! Usually forcing their way to a specific " big market" team crippling the franchise as they leave.
Someone explain to me how having more teams be competitive makes less money, than the same 4 teams getting all the stars.
It takes away from playoffs and over all competition because everyone knows who will be there.
Some markets may grow if a star comes and stays with the team and they become competitive. Then fans who watch the nba but not their local team will start watching thus growing the team, revenue and market.
Im not saying there aren't situations where the player is right to leave. After trying for most of their careers and not making it to the finals. Or the frint office does nothing to build around them. So they want a shot at a ring at the end of careers. I get that. I was for A.D leaving, cp3 too. We had no owner no team was built around them, if so they were nit retained or resigned. I was so tires of the team being ran so poorly i was goimg to follow him. Then a few months before his contract is up he signs with Klutch, we sign Kendrick Perkins. He didnt play and he sucked, he was sent there by Lebron, and rich paul to get him out of there, so Bron coud get a ring. I dont like him after that! Blew up in his face he thought he waa getting an all time great and would eaaily get more rings. Not knowimg A.D trainimg habits and laziness. Nobody watched nola games, they just saw stats. They didn't see him not play, or throw hissy fits. They got their bubble ring, but thats it! Bron thought he was getting a top 3 player in the league. He got someone with the potential to be that. You can tell Bron expected to be the second best player and ride Davis to a few easy rings. Ypu csn tell he gets frustrated with Davis. Now I do feel we won the trade.
Perk is still on the news every chance he gets to try and get Zion out! Zion will not find a other team that is as deep as we are, a more loyal fan base, all 12 of us! So if legacy and rings are what he is chasing, we have the squad, we just need him to be healthy and get some playoff experience. Thunk about what winning a ring, and mvp would do for his legacy! Getting a ring in a place no one thought was even possible will do alot for his legacy.
Yeah, yeah big markets can make him more money. But I'd argue with the internet and social media you can grow your brand from anywhere. Look at Jokic!
In the 80s, and 90, you had the sun's, the sonics, Utah, Bulls, Celtics, Lakers, pistons, rockets the Knicks, the magic,spurs, and Philly. They all had stars, and legit shots at getting a ring. It made it more exciting, and why the league was so profitable. I can't remember a time where two small markets made it to the finals.
Sorry for the novel!
When I say media, I don't mean you, love your vids. Keep up the good work. Give my pels some love, they got a deep bench, and a good team. We just need to stay healthy and shine when we get the rare prime time game. So we really just need to prove we belong. I don't think people realize the Nola markets real size. It's just impossible to watch pels games and we've been bad so long that nobody watches. Let z make a deep playoff run, his brand will blow up agin and the fan base will grow. Sadly though if he does the first article when the lose won't say pels team makes great strides in competing for a chip by gaining playoff experience. They will say, Zion can't win here he should leave. Oh and trade B.I. WE LOVE B.I!! He is loyal to us, they won't trade him. They've barley been on the court together and they already have articles about splitting them up. That's why nobody cheers for teams anymore! They don't have favorite teams they have fav players. From a long suffering Nola bball fan with not much to cheer about until recently, I'm guilty of it myself.But how else can I enjoy the playoffs?
The cavs wasn’t this good last year they won 8 straight last season once cavs never went went 18-2 nun last year
bron going to cavs would be a TERRIBLE move! having his circus around would mess up the whole chemistry and we don't want him anymore either!
There’s everything right! Allen was missing ! Bringing in new players, added shooting and in house development is hitting! The chemistry is balancing out with the ball movement. If we add Luke Travers this run will be dark horse contender rn! Even without adding LT this season. We’re building a dynasty, Mitchell won’t walk away. By the time his contract is up they’ll be READY READY, he was chill in Utah.. not worried. Lebron can come or not, we’re not drafting Bronny, unless he starts to improve a lot. He should stay in school. Keeping Okoro, will be tricky , Zhaire Smith will be a potential replacement I think. Probable reason for his 10 day, could be for off season assessment as a back up plan. If he’s healthy and stays healthy he could be a serviceable 3&d guy with a nose for the ball as a undersized forward kinda winnable odd ball player. We got a squad. Playoffs should be a good time
LeBron's not going to Cleveland or whichever team draft Bronny. He's going to the Celtics, Nuggets, Mavs, Sixers or Bucks as a FA. He's gonna make a team draft Bronny and then he'll say "it's not the time right now, I got a couple more championship years". He's only using his NBA leverage so Bronny gets drafted. 3d chess!
Don’t ever listen to anything bill Simmons says.
garland mobley for ad who says no
Just imagine Lebron with the current cavs roster. That would an instant Big 5 over there.
This guy is an absolute moron
This gotta be one of the worst videos I’ve watched lol. Why tf would Cleveland trade a 22 and 23 year olds that show amazing promise.
If we trade Darius and Evan I’ll literally stop being a Cavs fan
The best thing you've got to say about Mitchell is now he's not sharing the ball, just WOW, what an endorsement! What a guy.
Lmaoooo. Clickbait for the Cavs and Donavan is hilarious
7-1 since garland and mobley have been back mobley has taken a massive offensive leap lately they are at win now are a completely different team than last season and will shock everyone come playoffs they are by far the 2nd best team in the east try actually watching
Welcome to LA.
One of your worst videos ever tbh…
Everything based on one fake rumour, Spida will stay in Cleveland for a long time wait and see
Donovan literally said im happy as hell this season, hes definitely staying 😂
Trade Garland and Mobley for 3-4 elite role players and get their picks back from the D-Mitch trade. If they’re so good without them, just build around Allen and Spida
Cavs fans gonna cry about this one, but it’s all facts. DG is ASS
I MEAN HOT ASS DOGSHIT
ABSOLUTE SHIT STAIN
Cavs fan here and we are cool on Lebron he left for a reason so he should stay away for those same reasons. Just let us be great smh.
