    Jordan McRae makes the Cavs even deeper in 2017 (great addition)

    that dude is a solid player. i thought he should have played more
    last season. I think with Dellavadova gone, McRae will see much more time.
    Fast. lanky.. creates problems, great length in arms.

    He scores in the paint like crazy and gets to the line at least 10X a game.
    usually about 15X. hits FT's over 80%

    gets the opposing players in foul trouble.. Fouls add up
    and they are in the penalty by mid-Qtr.

    Looking good for Cavs. Cleveland has a great GM

    Go Cavs

    i tell you, man... future is bright for this bunch!

    he looks polished and good to go. Now with Delly gone... he's sure to get 18-20 min, a night..
    Felder looked like a killer too... get him under the wing of Irving.. show him some more moves.

    things are looking UP!....

    and they are already up. yikes!

    really?.. that's awesome.. i only just tuned in tonite (to Felder).. he was a dagger the whole way.. especially late.
    dagger after dagger. just icing the game. squashing any notion of a late run.

    really LOVE that quality on my team.

    DUDE... it's gonna be a GREAT RIDE!!

    as important as talent is... guys that close. guys that step up. do not cave under playoff pressure.

    D-Russell from the Lakers totally CHOKED... turned to poop in the 2H...
    Ingram too... lol

    Lakers garbage. Kupchak is a terrible GM.

    thank you for taking Mozgov off our hands there Mike

    100% agree. the ingredients are there.. and LeBron (bless him for being like this)
    really encourages other players.. actually hopes for them,.. celebrates their success/.

    thank God he's not like Kobe, actually if he was, i would not be a fan.
    that;s the very reason i root for him..

    watch this; watch Lebron stand and root for this kid, in a game where McRae started for Cleveland (36 pts) 9 Rebs
    vs. Detroit Pistons

    advance to 3:40 to see Lebron backing the kid.. stuff like this makes people grow. True leadership

    LeBron backs this kid up like like a father/older brother would.. and when the team sees him do it.
    then they ALL do it..

    when is the last time, you saw a team backing up a non-starter rookie like this?

    Yea. LeBron is all about making his team better. He knows the road to a championship is a team effort. So why waste time always working on yourself, when you could use some of that time to work on your team. Then when it comes down to the playoffs, you have people who you have personally trained and taught what to do. They are well prepared for that moment. Something these other players in the NBA will never understand.

    realistically these two aren't going to be in the rotation come playoff time. The '18 playoffs maybe...

    McRae and Felder should head the 2nd Unit... once they get comfortable in the pros..
    that deep is next to unbeatable..

    2 FULL units of top tier players.. no rest. continuous scoring.. and well rested players

    yikes.

    Putney looks like Dewanna Bonner. He'd get snapped in two in the big league.

    fwiw royce o'neale was the journey man player that impressed me most. Played in Orlando and Vegas. Looks like john salmons and plays like him.

    feed him. life weights. he was hitting three's and blocking shots.. great rebound guy..

    but clearly.. McRae and Felder should headline the 2nd Unit.. they would run opponents tired and ragged.

    great improvements. Feller more dangerous than Delly..

    Value players with talent and small contracts...sadly the NBA playoffs are too competitive to rely on this alone...
