Dam u replaced DG with Tyson?? 😂😂
I think Isaiah Mobley and Emoni will both get a standard contract, and TT will be brought back on a vet minimum deal. Travers, Burns, and Nance will get the 3 two-way spots.
the move is actually to play the best line ups with current players, my top starting line up would be Mobley, Wade, unknown SF , Strus , Mitchell .. play Garland and Allen off the bench and we will overpower teams during the regular season, will never happen but we would play better this way .. or go big, allen, mobley , wade, strus , mitchell .. two guards is the stupidest shit ive ever seen and never works.. and yes i know it'll never happen due to contracts, feelings and politics haha…
i've seen enough from past playoff and season to say DG needs to go. he is just too inconsistent with his decision making and energy, not to mention his defense (or lack thereof).
plus his need to be ball dominant clearly conflicts with Donovan, and i'd 100% go with Don.
Our best streak of games last year was when DG was out and Don was at PG.
DG can be a Trae Young type of player in another team, so lets trade him and get a solid SF.
if we do this, we go from "undersized" to a big and lengthy 2-way lineup:
Put Donovan at PG
Jaylon/Max at SG
get a solid SF from DG trade
Mobley at PF
Allen at C
Backups:
Craig Porter Jr (honestly think he could develop into a solid backup PG)
Caris Levert/Sam Merill/Jaylon
Okoro (dont let him go, he is our best wing defender. remember when they finally decided to put him on Paolo Banchero?)
Dean Wade
Isaiah Mobley (give this man a chance, he looks solid as a backup PF/C)
Work Isaiah Mobley, Jaylon Tyson or Luke Travers in at the small forward spot. You could maybe put Pete Nance in as a wing too.
I'm not for trading Garland yet because he is another ball handler and can create his own shot. If he has another down year then look for trades.
FAs we can afford if Okoro re-signs. We can only sign 2:
C/F Chimezie Metu
F Jordan Nwora
F JT Thor
F Luka Samanic
C/F Kai Jones
F Lamar Stevens
F Anthony Gill
If Okoro gets an offer & it isnt matched, Koby should sign Precious Achiuwa 2 an 8.5 mil $ deal & then sign 2 of these FAs.
Now, if the Cavs work out an S&T w/Okoro & 2 SRPs 4 DFS, now that's a win 4 me.
Here is my Rotation & PT distribution so far this offseason:
Starters;
DG-27
Spida-36
Max-21
Evan-30
JA-33
Bench;
Vert (F/G)~24
Tyson (G)~21
Wade (F)~18
Niang (C/F)~15
Merrill (F/G)~15
Ty (G)~0
CPJ (G)~0
Tyson has shown n the SL that he'll make an immediate impact off the bench this year.
IMO, Pete doesn't deserve a 2-way. The Nance name can only get u so far. Emoni & Luke both deserve a spot on this Cavs' roster, but since Koby have contractual control over them both, he will keep Luke overseas & Bates along w/DJ & Tomlin should b on 2-ways this year.
