I think the most exciting part is the lineup flexibility, which you guys touched on! Previously, some square pegs into round holes. Now Okoro actually gets to guard guards and Strus may be able to be a 2/3 full time instead of just a 3. And we're not solely relying on Dean Wade's joints to hold up. I'm not naive enough to call him a 'Wing Stopper', but nice to put someone on him that is actually in that archetype. Ya re-watching and I'm just echoing what y'all are saying lol.
Y'all are the best in the biz!
Lavert over Hunter anyday. They are a crazy to give up so much for Hunter who would come off the bench for many teams.
Amazing move by Cavs front office – absolutely addresses shallowest part of their roster – Cavs had only Dean Wade anywhere close to Hunter – just need to annoy opposing wings and hit open catch and shoot 3s
We need a big off the buyout market asap. Honestly D. Howard would be perfect playing 10/15 mins a game for this team.
I love, love, love the move, just make sure you limit his load for the next 30 games and make sure that knee is ready for the playoffs.
Great trade for the cavs. Nice to see the cavs have just about officially shed the identity of "only good when they have Lebron."
