Cavs look much better.

[SportsGuy]

Yea, these trades sound better for them..and they don’t trade that Nets pick.

Rodney Hood, Clarkson and George Hill are good additions.

It was nice of Cleveland to make sure the Lakers have enough cap room to sign LeBron this offseason.

We should watch "The Decision 2" together. I remember how much you loved the original.

And Nance. He also helps.

Lakers definitely helped by now being able to offer two max contracts....  but since James wasn't going to waive his no-trade, I like what Cleveland did overall.

Before yesterday, they looked like a team that probably wouldn't win the East.

I think they now have a team which has a chance (albeit slim in a Golden State Universe) of winning it all.

They got younger, more athletic.  The defense, and 3 point shooting should be improved.

Cleveland can put some different lineups on the floor, and have some versatility and depth.

[BSLChrisStoner]

New look Cavs up 12 in Boston at the half.

Vs. what they were... More athletic. More offensive options. More intensity.  

Defense will be an improvement as well.
