What are some off season improvements they can make?

[/ QUOTE ]

Cut Pietrus
Draft Tiago Splitter
Teach Monta to stop on a dime
Teach everyone on the team to learn to run the pick and roll with Biedrins that Baron does.

Probably some more, these are just off the top of my head.

Tiago will go that low? that would be a great pick for GSW...get another defensive force next to Biedrins. I don't think they should cut Pietrus. He's still only 24 and will improve. He's extremely athletic and I saw he made a lot of great defensive plays against bigger players. He can't make a shot to save his life, and he makes some horrible decisions, but he does have some potential.

This team should only get stronger after going through this run. Probably go as high as a 6 seed. Don't think they have enough steely vets, say like a Spurs team, to take them in the elite. The Jazz do have that potential to be one of the top teams.

it's very likely another team will snatch Pietrus up this offseason.

Pietrus is a free agent and i will shove all in to Matt Barnes over Pietrus everyday and twice on Sunday.

NBAdraft.net has tiago going like 2 spots lower than us and us drafting acie (which i don't mind too much as we obviously need someone to be a pg which monta really isn't yet (any may never be). I've seen other mocks having him to the W's as well, mostly because of the cut and run he's pulled in the past. I think Nelly would love him though.

two notes:

1) larry hughes played probably the worst half of basketball i've seen anybody play this year.
2) the cavs are at home, right? because we haven't gotten a single call thus far. that flagrant foul call was awful. i mean, lord knows we're stinking up the joint (mostly thanks to hughes trying to shoot every time he has the ball despite not being able to make a single thing) but man, give us a call.

this is worst ive seen cavs play this year. lbj decided not to show up. never seen anyone play as bad a shughes. mb needs to have a shorter leash on hughes. gibson can play and was playing well.

looks like the beginning of a usual dry spell.

cavs suck

[Needle77]

I [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] the Nets. Can't wait for game 6 in Jersey. Hold on Nets.

[lapoker17]

don't worry cleveland fans. i just donned my new lebrons and will be wearing them til games end. this is the type of thing, that from my experience, pretty much guarantees a comeback.

[Victor]

nets are trying to give this game away but cavs refuse to accept it.

[xorbie]

lapoker,

maybe tell gooden not to shoot, ever.
