    So CJ is a superior player than Lebron?

    Both equal on the floor, IMHO.

    I would choose to trade either....equally

    Hell yeah. How about a defensive SG than can shoot the 3 ball at 40% and can create a shot now and again. Now that would be awesome.

    Well at least that clarifies to me your ability to judge talent.

    Speaking of Toronto if Casey gets fired as expected, I’d love for Terry to add him to his staff and let him handle the defense.

    Cup, i say this in the nicest way possible. This is a complete double standard.
    Please read through the quotes and some of your responses, that were not answering the question and quite possibly could be considered insulting. But then read your response asking peolple (gronk) to answer tour question if they are going to respond to your post.

    I hope you see the hypocrisy of this because it does make it difficult to have a healthy constructive conversation. Mm is a good guy. Him and i butt heads about our opinions all the time aNd i think he is a pescimistic glass half empty guy. He knows this and he thinks im an irrational homer.

    You can have differences of opinions and still respect each others opinions is all im saying.
    I hope this makes sense and you take it for what it is meant to be. A suttle positive suggestion in hopes of providing a happier forum for all including you. :)

    Why does time t=0 start with Ellis, and not after they traded him? There were lots of rumors about them trading Klay. Instead
    they decided to let it bake.

    Sure, that’s EXACTLY what I was saying. As others have posted, CJ and Ellis have pretty similar stats, EXCEPT for 3pt shooting. You make a comment asking why CJ is better “other than 3pt shooting”. Given that that skill is a significant one in today’s NBA, tossing it out when comparing two pretty similar players makes no sense. Just for the record, that Lebron guy has better stats than CJ in multiple categories. I’d probably take him for my pickup team over CJ.

    The guy has been on my case since day 1. Look at the date I joined. I didn't stick around because how he reacted to my posts and many others. I see no reason to give the guy any respect when he never showed me respect now and when I first joined.

    Never once claimed I was a victim, just my opinion of you.

    So many rumors about Klay. Sounds more like they didn't get what they wanted for him, rather than not entertaining offers for him.
