Lets Be Real: This Cav Team Misses Playoffs Without LeBron

[SaltyMeatballs]

They would make it in as a 7th or 8th seed considering how bad the East's depth is

Ridiciulous thread. Irving would be averaging 26/4/8 and Love would be around 28/14/3

Sure, but they'd win about 30 games.

You're an idiot. The 2014 TWolves won 40 games. The Cavs minus LeBron have a far superior roster than Minnesota of last year.

[J Shuttlesworth]

Who would be making plays though?

[coin24]

No they'd easily be 6-8 seed..

[Leroy Jetson]

Poor Lebron, if only he could play with some decent players, gtfo.

[Fire Colangelo]

JR Smith and Shumpert weren't doing shit for the Knicks, now all of a sudden they're key players?

Mozgov is legit tho.

You do know that Love is playing injured, right? You're the idiot if you think he's putting up 28/14/3. He didn't put those numbers up on a worse team with a less ball dominant PG in Rubio. Also, IF he is able to score 28 PPG, he'd probably do it on shitty efficiency.

Imagine where this team would be without a great closer like Irving. Wow...

Imagine where this team would be without a great closer like Irving. Wow...

Agreed. Where would they be without a player that has never been close to playing in a playoff game until LeBron got there.

[jayfan]

No, but they'd be a 5th seed without Mozgov.

Actually, the Cavs were relatively close last year. They were fighting for the 8th seed this time last season and that was after the horrific "Bynum experiment" which derailed the first 30 games or so. After that difficult start, they played essentially .500 ball for the rest of the season. Keep in mind that wasn't done with guys like Love, Shumpert, Mozgov or JR Smith dotting the roster... we're talking Earl Clark, Alonzo Gee and Tyler Zeller all playing serious minutes and/or starting.

Also, a guy being unable to drag his team to the playoffs in his first three years and at the ripe old age of 21 isn't exactly a crime against humanity... especially when his first two years in the league were spent on a team openly tanking for cap space/draft picks (a strategy which eventually worked to perfection, btw).


But, by all means... back to your agenda/trolling.

Which Celtic is better than Irving or Love?

End thread. Silkk slayed once again

[houston]

this true indeed Lebron saved them
