He's the new Duncan. Too bad I doubt the Pelican has the Spurs management skill to surround him with a championship cast.
Not to mention afflalo plays defense.
He's got the tools to be better.
A LOT better. Dude comes off screens like a guard and covers an insane amount of ground as a defender. He's the LBJ of centers, just does it all... He could be up for an mvp before the end of his first contract at this rate.
Woodson, unfortunately.
They've already won the tank war. :/
Well I hope so. We haven't seen a big man with such skills for a long time.

Cavs should go after Afflalo
Who do they have that the Magic would want?
You can get more for Kyrie

nah fair deal
we take on a defensive sieve who scores 21 points on 19 shots who fights his teammates
cavs get the best 2 guard in the league
it anything the magic are giving up too much

CJ Miles is on an expiring deal and Tyler Zeller would give them a back up center. We also have plenty of draft picks to play around with at this point and I'd dangle Waiters as a 6th man off the bench.
This is all a pipe dream though because they'd never take any of these guys for Afflalo. Just wishful thinking on my part because something needs to be done to shake up our roster.
You know things are bad when you have to rely on an undrafted rookie point guard to run your offense and keep the team engaged.
If we traded Kyrie I would be on suicide watch

Cavs should trade Kyrie if they're not gonna do shit when his contract is up. Don't let him walk like Lebron.
Kyrie for Wade

Waiters is supposed to be Wade 2.0 though

Too bad he can't dribble, finish at the rim, or play defense

You always talk out of your ass. Your boy Oladipo looks like the one that is gonna score 21 on 19 shots.
You need to slow the fuck down with that shit when comparing him to one of the GOATs. He's KG lite right now.

afflalo for the cavs unprotected 1st rounder this year would be fair
probably would have to toss in the scrub waiters too

He's not wrong though. Charles Barkley wasn't gifted with all the "tools" to be an awesome power forward. Turned out he was just really really good at playing basketball.

I'd be more than willing to make that deal but would Orlando take on Waiters? They already have Oladipo who does everything he does only better.

You make no fucking sense.
Let me know when Tim Duncan is a one man fastbreak. Or when he comes off a down screen to the high post and hits a stepback jumper like he's a 2.
I didn't say he was putting up a better season than Prime KG but it's hardly a stretch to say he'll do it soon. Even if doesn't even improve skillwise, he'll put up crazy numbers just filling out his frame and not being surrounded by fuckery at all times.

Then why compare him to Duncan when they're games are nothing a like? That's why I called him KG lite.
CherryWoodFuton

I'm down for that trade
Future PhaZe

KG lite in what way? He's more productive than KG was at the same point of his career, I might go as far as to say significantly so.
KG didn't have the benefit of a year of college, but still, as of this moment right now? AD got him.

I'm not willing to give up Karasev
EDIT: But then again what I want doesn't mean shit to management so they'd probably pull the trigger

He's an ugly mofo but he's definitely the league's next superstar. Silver and Co should probably hire some people to fix him up before the media wakes up and realizes he's going to be on Durant's level very soon.
Edit: I hate the Pelicans sooo freaking much. Not only did our playoff team relocate there, they also won a coin flip with us to draft our home town boy CP3, and then to add insult to injury they robbed us of our payout for enduring the worst season of all time and now have a future top 2 or 3 overall player to build around. Seriously, fuck a Pelican.

Afflalo is still trash.
I hope some team is dumb enough to trade stuff of value for him
Unprotected Cavs 1st would be one of the greatest trades ever.
Well kobestans would say "but he had 11 assists and set up the entire offense!"
so... i'll go with that

AA has an abnormally high usage rate on a terrible Magic team

The idea that hes better or somehow worth more than Harden is laughable. I'd expect that kind of crazy thinking from Gondo.
I do think the Magic should dump Afflalo asap. His value won't ever be higher than it is now and teams like the Cavs will only be desperate for so long before they resign themselves to their fate.
that doesnt matter if you have a abnormally high efficiency rate.
the "scoring on a bad team" argument doesnt work when you are highly efficient.
