    Cavs' locker room was having issues before Isaiah landed in CLE, one of the reasons why Isaiah was traded there in the 1st place.
    Also, Wade was the guy who started shit with Love..Isaiah only joined a line of guys who were all calling Love out.
    That said, Julius was still about to whip his little ass the other night.
    But that's separate, that was in game frustration.
    Just like Isaiah's inability to stick with one team is a separate issue and has to do with the business of basketball and his style of play to a lesser degree.
    Just like this summer, when Isaiah will be a last resort option for LAL, and how he'll be out there looking for the best deal possible for himself as well.

    .500 is a dream at this point
    Think they could've done it if not for the health issues
    Whatever, at least the top youngsters all had their moments
    Both Ingram and Julius should be in the running for most improved player in the L

    No. This is bullshit. As in no basis in truth but purr speculation. Speculation is ok i guess when there is no truth. But there is truth. You can watch Randles interviews. His praise for IT is not parsed. Its unequivocal. He calls his his brother. He is emphatic. He puts IT over every other player on his team. There is nobody he would rather go to war with. Look at his face and his toen in the interview. He isnt giving you standard talking points but js speaking from the heart. Its obvious if you listen to the horses mouth.
    In sports on a team you dont need years to consider a guy a brother.
    In many things in life you can form a bond in a moment.
    Depends on the moment. Depends on the guy.

    Would really like him to try to up his shooting and percentage. You can’t be an “elite” PG without putting some consistent points on the board.

    He can't be elite for another 3+ years at least

    Isaiah says a Boston return is possible in free agency
    I just wish his little leprechaun looking ass would stop shooting so terribly while with LAL
    0-5 from 3
    4-14 overall
    11 points
    You can't take 14 shots and have 11 points, brah

    4-14 and 0-5 in 3 point land is not going to cut it for an undersized PG that doesn't play defense or team ball. And, that's not going to last long in the locker room for the short dude who keeps barking at teammates for one reason or another. IT is not about team play, and that is why I don't like him on this young roster.

    The FO did this trade for a reason.....make this pick for the Celtics' pick to suck this season, and create cap room for 2019 when we release his ass. As long as this is still the goal, I don't mind what IT does or doesn't do.

    But Napolean guy is a problem on whatever team he plays for. Why would Boston be so willing to trade him after the season he had there last year? Why would pretty much every team be willing to let him go since he started in the league? Isaiah is pretty much the right name.......a petty, arrogant, backstabbing, PG that can ruin an entire organization if you are not careful. He is the spitting image of the guy he was named after. Ironic...or maybe not.

    That Boston/CLE trade gets done 100 times out of 100 because Kyrie is an upgrade over Isaiah.
    I'm not into the narrative you're pushing and that stuff.
    I just wish he'd play well while here.

    Glad Julius is breaking out, I mean good timing with Aaron Gordon also having a great season
    Would've always wondered what if LAL had been picking a tad bit higher in that 2014 draft and in range for Gordon
    Still Lol today about Boston taking Marcus Smart over Julius, just DAF. Smh

    Hell of an answer by OKC, on the verge of perhaps missing the playoffs, to then run off 6 wins in a row
    But that loss to Boston last night was insane
    Still, looks like they could avoid GSW and Houston in the 1st round

    Ball maybe talented, but 1-12 from 3 is just something he really need to fix.

    It's not about scoring 25 points per game, but you have to be some kind of an offensive threat to open up the rest of your game. Single digit scoring and bad percentages are not a good combination.

    I hope he learns and improves in the off season.

    yeah they said he was 7-48 from 3 in the past few games

    .145% doesn't scare anyone

    Only thing more painful than watching those bricks was watching them defend (if that's what you call it) tonight.
