They are also failing to acknowledge that he has gone from Flip Saunders to Sam Mitchell...the negative impact that has had on his offensive game has been written about extensively.

But going from Blatt to Lue in a much more reserve type role than currently would have him blossoming?

Ainge has been trying to get Love for years now.

He seems obsessed.

Cavs wouldn't add anything of value with the addition of Wiggins and subtraction of Love.

They'll lose in the Finals this year with Love. They'd lose in the Finals this year with Wiggins.

The article also highlights his offensive inefficiencies passing for a high volume ball possession guy.

It fails to point out the terrible offensive weapons he has around him. Of course his assist pale in comparison to others when you're best offensive player is an old chucker like Kevin Martin.

Seriously, who does he have to pass to? Ricky Rubio ?Joke. Muhammad? Pekovic who just got healthy and playing like Crap.

Gorgui Dieng? ....KAT is the only one, but it's usually Rubio setting up a play to dish to him.
Wiggins role should be a slasher ATM, and he's still young. Probably feels he has to do too much. But not surprised about the low assists in that frickin team

I don't disagree. But that's not really my point.

Cavaliers are the 3rd best team in the NBA and could beat the Spurs in a 7 game series. No on besides Marc Jackson seen the Warriors coming. LBJ built a championship team, I don't know how anyone can deny that. Unfortunately for LBJ, the Warriors are GOAT level, and even so he single handily took them to a game 6.

They are a good team. They likely wouldn't make the conference finals if they were in the West, though.

I think Cleveland and Toronto will be a fun little series tbh

Well since they'll not meet in the playoffs it will be one of those "who lost by the least points in game 5 to the Warriors in the series clinching game"

The west is garbage. Cavaliers have dominated the west (16-5). Their plight to the conference finals would be just like their plight to the conference finals in the East last year. Furthermore this same team would have made it to/won the finals in 2011-2013. They aren't a "good" team, they are a championship team.

I mean, they would have to beat Golden State or San Antonio to get to the conference finals, so no.

Not sure why you lumped SAS with GSW.

Cavs>SAS not to mention SAS are more likely to lose earlier in the playoffs than GSW or Cavs

Conference finals GSW v Cavs

Pretty simple
