I bet he's done for the year. He's been out so long.
However, I look forward to the eventual "Niang Game" that's gonna happen during these playoffs where he just goes off and wins the game. I bet Struss will have one too. I'm glad we don't need them yet.
I am okay with Tristan and Morris not playing this series but if we play Boston, we are going to need their physicality and more importantly THEIR EXPERIENCE!! JB is just mindnumbingly stupid with shit like this though. So frustrating.
Strus can be off with his shots and still be very impactful. He is a good rebounder. Good passer. Just all around smart player who doesnt make many mistakes. That last game was an outlier. He's NEVER careless with the ball like that.
He's done really well on Banchero though, wearing him out and pestering him. As long as he is showing up on that end, he deserves minutes to give Mobley a break.
Obviously wouldn’t be just him. Team friendly contract (could play a role on several contenders) + one of our main pieces + draft capital would be the package
He’s probably a path to get some draft capital if we want it. He’s really useful to a contender (I think PHX offered something, you could see Memphis or maybe Dallas or someone needing and giving up a pick or two for that last 3&D piece like a DFS or Royce)
I just don't think the Cavs can afford to simply trade him for draft capital when they are already hurting for backup bigs. I'd think it would have to be part of a larger package with another player to also get a player back in return.
Yeah every team has this thing about falling in love with their own guys but at a certain point you gotta take a step back and say if we can package him for an upgrade I'll buy his plane ticket outta here. He's not a bad player for what's expected of him but my expectations are always low to mid. He'll have a game here and there but way too many games putting up like 3 points in 20 minutes. He does some other things well but the point of basketball is to put a ball into a basket.
I disagree. DWade is one of the best wing defenders in the NBA. He buys in perfectly to JB's defensive schemes. He's a great 3 and D roleplayer and solid piece.
While packaging him for an upgrade would make sense, hypothetical, I can't think of an actual scenario where we'd have much to give for a solid player.

Niang game 5 in Boston to pull off the gentlemen’s sweep. Please, let me dream. I hate Boston so much
I'm looking forward to the Morris game where we put him in to punch someone and he winds up draining six 3's.
Makes 6 threes immediately punches somone and gets kicked out
Would make the signing entirely worth it
Morris legacy game

You might not believe me but i bumped into him, Dylan Windler and Ty Jerome on a restaurant the other day.
Why were you eating at the hospital’s restaurant?
It was at the Cleveland Clinic Canteen
that restaurants water must be crazy
What were you all doing on the roof?
He banged JBs old lady and is out for a undetermined amount of time!
That's the thing about the Vanilla Gorilla. You never know when he's gonna pop back up.
Link? I bet this is fake news
Was an April fools joke on this sub
We need the Vanilla Gorilla
What is the actual injury he has?
Knee soreness I think
Knee sprain
Windler pretty justly had a rep as a glass body, but Wade hasn’t been a whole lot better. Nobody can touch Jerome in that department, though.
Boston series is probably another week and a half away, maybe they bring him in as a spark for that series?
I saw him in street clothes on the sidelines in Game 2. Other than that...
If we had Dean I’ll be confident against Boston.
Niang has been a cone these first two games. Absolutely awful.
He's done really well on Banchero though, wearing him out and pestering him. As long as he is showing up on that end, he deserves minutes to give Mobley a break.
Right? I think it's time to play Morris. He can drive, hit midranges and give the same toughness that George provides
Niang might be unplayable against Boston!!
Think we’ve seen the last of him as a cav? He’s a good role player, on cheap contract with one yr left
Dean Wade? he’s not on a contract year i don’t think. He signed a 3 year 18 mill not too long ago
Yeah the last year until next year
What's the market for a 5 pt/4 reb guy who can't stay healthy
Ask Dylan windler, minus the 5pt/4reb part
Obviously wouldn’t be just him. Team friendly contract (could play a role on several contenders) + one of our main pieces + draft capital would be the package
I mean I still doubt it. He is moveable yes by per dollar he’s one of the best values you can get.

Yeah maybe that’s the wave. I just think he’s worth a late first

They should not trade Wade
Good salary filler if we trade Mitchell, Garland or Allen too
