The Cavs' imperfect deadline was the best they could do
The Cleveland Cavaliers lost the Kyrie Irving trade. They also made the best available Kyrie Irving trade...
...
[Today] They did about the very best repair job they could in a stunning series of deals that sent out six players and two draft picks...the lethargic Cavs got younger, exchanged bricky ball-handlers for shooters, and added two switchy defenders who can hang -- when engaged -- against elite offenses.
...
Quibble if you want -- and we will -- but that is a big, big win for the Cavs andGM Koby Altman, Owner Dan Gilbert who no longer looks as "young" "clueless" and "overwhelmed"...
...
Shumpert was out of the rotation, with little chance of reentering. Rose is bad, maybe washed up, and serves no purpose...
Thomas is broken. He alienated teammates by speaking out of turn...but you forgive all that if players produce. Thomas didn't...he is broken for now, and the Cavs were out of time.
Crowder looks broken, too -- and dispirited. The team's faith in him wavered. Wade is a legend, and for a while there, he propped up a frisky bench. But at 36, he was mostly just another non-shooter clogging LeBron's driving lanes and playing zero defense.
He shot a lot, too. An aging veteran who loafs on defense, jacks with the frequency of a borderline All-Star, and scolds others for their mistakes can sap morale even without really meaning to -- or acting with malice.
...
Everything about the team was untenable. You could literally see the tension and misery playing out on the floor. I can't recall anything quite like it, and coaches and players who faced them in recent weeks can't, either. On some nights, most players simply didn't try to help each other on defense. When teammates lose faith in each other -- when everything is fractured -- that is how it shows. Opponents jog to the rim with no resistance, and players glare at each other. LeBron has never defended so lazily.
...
At times, it looked almost like an on-court, every-man-for-himself mutiny against ... something...
Cleveland removed the guys who were killing the mood...
...
This was a good day for Cleveland. Short of a miracle, LeBron couldn't have asked for much more...The Cavs did the best they could, and they have a chance to be a crash by the Golden State team charteran injury away to Golden State again.
