THE LAST DANCE BABY
LETS GOOOO
The missing piece
Fucking ew
Fuck yeah. Need that toughness and a vet big in locker room.
Eh.
The East runs through Cleveland (for real this time)
One last time TT, tell’em who the East runs through
The King Returns!
Welcome back T TOP
I love it so much
Cavs really like giving this guy money
Nice!
THE RETURN! Not Bron, not Kyrie, not Kevin – Tristan fucking Thompson lol
Dude may be cooked now but let’s fucking gooooooooo
Teach the Afro how to rebound and box out TT
Does he really give us front court depth though? I see this as a James Jones/Mike Miller in their final year before retirement type deal. Even then I wonder if he can have that type of impact?
I am thankful for his impact when Lebron returned. And I know there is a leadership void after releasing Love and with Rubio likely done with basketball forever.
I like our offseason moves, no panic moves which is great, but I’m a little skeptical about this one.
This is… actually a good pickup?
bro what the fuck this guy cannot defend, has 0 offensive game, isn’t athletic. i’ve been positive of every move so far this season but i dont think he can realistically be significantly better than the Robin Lopez role.
Don’t give a shit how good or bad TT is. Fucking love him
LFG DOUBLE T!!!
Im assuming he’s not gonna play but man I love Tristan and I’m glad to see him back.
King is back
I gotta say, I didn’t see this one coming. But I’m here for it! Love me some TT! Get some grit back on this squad, sorely needed.
Welcome home champ!!!
Huge fan of this, no real downside. He looked solid in the limited minutes he got for the Lakers.
Tristan Thompson, sign yo contact, in clevelannnnd C town.
Ngl i like this a lot. I feel like hes the type of backup big that can exactly in what the Cavs need, rebounding and leadership.
Happy days
Hell yes!!! Welcome back TT!
Fkn love it man. Not expected to really do sh on the floor but he will be in Mobley and Allen’s ears
Son of a bitch, Im in !!
Return of the Iron Man !
Post-Kardashian Triston was never the same
Got one back. How about one more return 😉.
BOOOOOOOOOOO! Double T’s a bumm
Dude is so washed and a waste of roster space…
One thing I know about Tristan is if the other team starts being dirty, Tristan will not let that slide. He will fight for a teamtame without question.
I’m 100% fine with filling a few roster spots with guys who know what it takes to wins a ship, even if they never play a single minute.
TT has plenty to help team our young core about toughness in the playoffs.
I love this, dude saw what it took to win a chip and he’s a vet that’ll hold the young guys accountable
