Who would've guessed that Jordan Clarkson is the best Cavs player this season?

Another player Lakers could've used.

Clarkson was always destined to be the best player on a lottery squad. Lakers saw it for years. We all saw what he was last year when the Cavs were playing in the playoffs.

Stop it.

Coincidentally, the last game the Cavs won was a game that Clarkson caught a DNP. lmao

Ingram and Brown are like the exact same player, it's insane how similar their careers have started. Only difference is Brown has had a playoff run where he was 1A or 1B. It definitely inflated his value but he has the edge on Ingram right now because he's shown he can do damage in the post season.

Ingram started off slow last season as well and during Dec-March (when he was healthy) he really picked it up. I'm hoping for something similar this year. His 3 point percentage is super worrisome though, as is his free throw numbers. I'm not sure how much he will improve on those, either.

henhowc is our FT expert.

He can attest that BI has been getting better from the line.

The coaching staff needs to give him less ball handling duty and encourage 3 point volume.

Just shoot the fucking ball already.

They are both 2nd year players, play the same position, and have similar skill sets. Also Boston vs LA, of course.

Kuz is better now, but Tatum has a way higher ceiling. I don't think anyone is debating that.

Brandon ain't going to the All-Star game. And that has me disappointed. Servbot24 its time I serve my sentence.

I'm in a good space and I'm feeling good vibes.

The theory that LeBron doesn't make great players better has again been proven with BI and Kuzma in his absence.
Look at nance Thompson on the Cavs

Kyrie on the Celtics...the list goes on

If you put two ball hogs who don't improve their teammates like LeBron and AD, does the universe implode or do they both shoot 0 for 36 combined

I want to see Durant's reaction to not being an all-star starter in the fan vote. I think fan votes are garbage but it has to be eating him up inside.

My opinion is that age shouldn't be the defecto when comparing both young players. Capping Kuzma's ceiling because he's 4 years older than Tatum is a bit disingenuous to me when he has shown substantial improvements to his game from previous and will continue to improve the next season. The only slight in Kuzma's game now that Tatum may have over him is he lacks a skillset that would allow him to change directions in an iso or driving to hoop.

And Tatum is 10x the defender already

Did anyone realistically expect them to make it beyond the second round?

The Eastern Conference Finals is the realistic ceiling for the Pacers. They would have to draw Philly and Milwaukee in rounds 1 and 2, though. I don't think they can beat Boston or Toronto in a 7 game series.

Though if they draw Miami, Philly, Milwaukee...
