Good pickup if they get him.
Otherwise he can come to the Hawks.

[Hey Yo]

If Indy isn't going to try to get Marion, then they're already in tank mode.

[dubeta]

basically gives them what wiggins would have, for 1 year at least

[Thunderfan86]

OKC should be going after this dude. He's still a good defender right?

[qrich]

Why Sacks/Rivers didn't pursue Marion, I'll never understand.

[RichieW]

He's gonna take the minimum to sign with the Cavs when he could probably get the MLE with the Spurs or Thunder? Crazy

[Hoopz2332]

Im feeling this move and yes, he's basically wigginsish but proven. Gives them that other perimeter defender they need to give LBK some rest.

[SupermanOnSteroids]

would be an excellent pickup. Marion might be old, but he's still a very useful player and still very very versatile.

[poido123]

Get your ass over to Chicago Marion, bulls have 1 spot left for you...

Don't go to them :facepalm

bulls are already stacked how much more help do you need? :oldlol:

unless ur insecure brans still gonna shit on ur stacked team

[Fudge]

Come to OKC, buddy. Got that ring on lock next year.

[MP.Trey]

This would be fantastic. Makes up a bit for the loss of an already good defender in Wiggins. And being this is his later years, he's improved his three game to the point of being tolerable. I would like this pickup very much.

Could be a very nice pickup from both a player/fit standpoint and a as a locker room presence. This is why I told people to hold off before judging the Cavs' depth. This roster is still in serious flux, with or without Love.

Poor poster as always.

Stay irrelevant

he was actually a pretty good 3pt shooter in his days in phoenix and his 3pt shot has sorta disappeared over the years. last year in Dallas he did ok, but I wouldn't hang my hat on it.

[El Gato Negro]

griff still working on gm of the year i see...

Surely Bulls will get this guy?

he regularly visits Chicago, gets involved with the city pro am events and his girlfriend who has his kid lives in Chicago..

Too bad boy. He's joining the greatest player ever in the shittiest city ever.

[KyrieTheFuture]

Please get him on the team

[poido123]

He just might do so...

Still, we are a good chance of getting him.

This.


Matrix has been so underrated its criminal. People thought his success in Phx was the "system" and then he gets no love for being an important player on other teams bc he doesnt score 20 ppg.

I think he still has game. Dude should 100% go to Chicago, theyre more of a contender than Cle right now.


Edit: I see he already picked cleveland. Too bad.

[Mr Feeny]

Awwww better luck next time:roll:

:banghead: :hammerhead: :hammerhead:

[Lebronxrings]

lol @ okc and bulls, your teams are already stacked.

[BigTicket]

Nice.

He will be a solid backup at both SF and PF, which really improves the Cavs depth chart.

[Meticode]

Great signing. We just need a shot blocker now. That's the last spot to fill. Assuming the Love trade goes through and he's all we get.

Varejao/Thompson/Haywood
Love/Marion/Thompson
LeBron/Marion
Waiters/Miller/Jones
Irving/Dellevadova

[ArbitraryWater]

So we get Love, and now the last spot will be filled with Larry Sanders.. :D

[Beastmode88]

Um, are you guys kidding?

Only rooting for them because of LeBron :cheers:

Cleveland Fan since 1942 :cheers:

[Lebronxrings]

our roster seems good enough at the 2/3/4 spots. We still need a shotblocking big for the team to work. If only we could get ibaka, 3 peat.

Why dont you just root for the Mavs?? I see you like Dirk a lot and you're German, didnt you say you used to root for them as well??

It's basically Mavs and LeBron... I just love to riddle these guys up with the LeBron stuff..

In a series I will root for my Mavs, like I did in 2011, no trolling..

[Locked_Up_Tonight]

Cleveland fans will see how much Marion has really fallen off. He is more name than game right now at his stage of his career.

No one should be shocked by a soon to be 37 year old being cooked.

Get ready to make excuses as to why your team will be a 'deadly' #4 seed :oldlol:

I hope the NBA starts as soon as possible.

:roll: :roll: God damn, stop it! You're gonna make him have a heart attack. I guess Shaq couldn't carry Lebron. Shaq with Kobe 3 rings, Shaq with Wade 1 ring and Shaq with Lebron 0 rings hence Kobe > Wade > Lebron. :applause:

He is an average defender at best right now, to slow to keep up with the young guys, but still rebounds well and plays intelligent basketball.

[VIntageNOvel]

so.. another asterisk?

[chips93]

i could see marion getting some time at the 2, just since we dont have any stud defensive guards, and we dont wanna wear lebron down too much by having him guard the other teams best guard.

waiters/miller/jones is a pretty bad set of defenders

[aboss4real24]

Marion is not that gud

so it dont matter no asterisk 4 LBJ
