No.  No Thompson isn't better than biyombo.  He was until his body broke down as a result of missing only 4 games in the previous 5 seasons that included 3 consecutive deep playoff runs.  

Thompson makes more than biyombo. 

I wouldn't trade biyombo for Thompson

Contract

• Free Agent/Player/Team/Early Termination

Team	2017-18	2018-19	2019-20
Cleveland Cavaliers	$16,400,000	$17,469,565	$18,539,130

 

Currently he's paid less. Honestly it's not much of a difference. But Thompson is a better player than Biyombo. His body isn't broken down, he's only 26. You can barely play Biyombo if someone isn't there spoon-feeding him the ball. I'm not saying Thompson is some great player but compared to Biyombo? I'll take TT.

Hood is injury prone isn't he?

Im sorry but I pass. The Kardashian package is too much. 

I rather keep and over pay the likeable Biyombo

Call me a homer but I like Biyombo over Thompson currently. Looks like Thompson is going to be getting paid more in the next 2 years also. I see more energy and effort from biz

16.4+17.5+18.5= 52.4

17+17+17= 51.

Thompson is paid more.  

Thompson has been terrible this year.  He's been a worse defender than Kevin love.  

If you took biyombo's offense and Jokic's defense and made them one player it'd be Thompson this season.  

Why do you think Cleveland is interested in Jordan? Thompson has been bad enough that Frye is starting to take his minutes

1.4 is quite negligible. lol

I'd rather bet on TT coming back to healthy form then BB learning a simple post move, or shooting a decent % from the stripe.

Biz is a better FT shooter than TT

the actual trade suggestion was IT, Crowder, BKN pick for AG+EP. 

this was just a side discussion.
