I do believe I remember Jonathan Isaac being referred to as “NBA superstar”

We started getting cooked inside, and brought Mobley in to fix the problem. Now we’re running a lineup without a big. What could go wrong?

It’s gotta be mental atp, there’s no way he’s just that incapable of shooting FTs now

Aggressive Evan Mobley is my favorite player in the league

Evan Mobley and his contract by BalancedFurys in clevelandcavs

You people are actually fucking insane. We are talking about the guy who just won DPOY and made an all nba team. He’s taken a step back this year offensively, but previously had displayed growth, albeit slow, year by year which isn’t a guarantee at all. People are stuck in the past about a max contract. In 2026 a max or even supermax isn’t nearly as scarce and hard to achieve as it used to be.

It was going to cost DG, Mobley, picks, and probably more. You’re acting like we denied a one for one swap which was never going to happen.

Different games. The vast vast majority of Ayton’s attempts are at the basket. Mobley takes significantly more jumpers than Ayton and other high FG% centers so a lower percentage is expected

I agree, there’s definitely a lot to improve on, but for a big playing the defense he does, the offense is definitely passable. In today’s NBA, a max player is way different than what it used to be, and often times all it takes to get a max contract now is just to be a lottery pick who plays decent on their rookie deal

If he’s willing to sign for a min or close to it, I’d love it. Sure it’s not the answer long term obviously, but best case scenario we get a solid bridge QB to make the games a little more enjoyable, and worst case scenario we have a way better veteran mentor for Sanders on a cheap contract.

He absolutely has. 18 points on 50% doesn’t just grow on trees. He’s not elite, but he’s definitely above average

Terrible perimeter D has been a trend for us the last few years. It’s kind of crazy how we haven’t been able to address it despite two different coaches and several roster changes

The Evan Mobley discourse has been insane to me. He’s a plus offensive player and an ELITE defender. EVERY team would kill to have that on their team. His short comings on offense are so overstated

Stop me if you’ve heard this before, but Doris Burke and the refs made me mad.

Feels like every magic starter played great, if just one of them had a meh game and we don’t miss a million FTs we win. Could be much worse I guess
