Kyrie/ Shumpert for Kemba/ MKG ?

taking on Kyrie and Shump for MKG and Kemba does nothing really.. Kyrie's D is subpar to Kemba's and even though we all get down on MKG for his scoring problems - he still averaged +2 more pts than Shump did in Cleveland.. I think it is a wash - but we lose our Franchise PG for one that will probably jump ship as soon as he can..

 

Also, before LeBron went back - Irving never lead the squad to the playoffs.. Kemba has been THE guy for 2 playoff runs so far..

Kyrie is a great player but in my opinion, he's not an impact player. 

Without LeBron, the Irving lead Cav team is 78-152. Sure he was a part of some shitty teams but if we're going to sell the farm we need to be getting much better and I don't think Irving and Shumpert make us much better. One thing it would do is make us downright terrible on defense.

Not to mention, Irving can't stay healthy. He hasn't played a full season in the NBA to date and has missed 111 games in six seasons averaging 18.5 missed games per year. In comparison, Kemba has only missed 49 games in his six seasons in the NBA (8.2 per year average). Those 18 games would obviously have huge implications on the Hornets chances for a playoff birth.

    • Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"
    • Yeah your right the owner was copping hand shandies while all this was going down 
    • I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
