Game 17: Cavs at New York Knicks 8:00 EST, TNT FSO

King Stannis · Post #1 » by **King Stannis** » Thu Dec 4, 2014 7:34 am

The Cavaliers journey to Madison Square Garden seeking revenge for an embarrassing loss in the season opener to Carmelo Anthony and the Knicks. The Cavs have won four straight whilst New York continues to struggle despite a bloated payroll and the hiring of Phil Jackson in the offseason.

Carried by TNT and Fox Sports Ohio.

Keys to the Game:

1. Play good team defense
2. Manage turnovers
3. Touches for Love and Irving
4. (Any) bench production
5. Crash them boards

Bonus: Will Waiters contribute?

Discuss.

Cavaliers really suck. There is no way in hell Irving & LBJ will ever co-exist. Sorry to say.

Haha so true, Kyrie had 2 assists tonight, he has no room to be cocky and have his "hero ball". If I was the Cavaliers I would trade Irving for a decent PASS FIRST point guard, who plays defense, and a center who can play defense and protect the rim, at this point this team is really struggling in my eyes, they let Amare Stodemire own them LOL

Rondo comes to mind... Irving is one of the most selfish PGs I have ever seen in the history of watching 20 years of NBA. Maybe Iverson topped him, but Iverson was special & unique.

Come playoffs, Irving and his "hero ball" will cost Cavs and LeBron many easily won games.

Those same fluky teardrops he was making today, won't be dropping. Those are very low % shots over 2 sometimes 3 defenders. Such a cocky player...

Still mad about Kyrie shutting down Wall I see. Stick to watching the Wizards struggle on a daily basis. One bad game from the Cavs and you pop up :nonono:

This is why I hate it when the Cavs choose to play like s**t on national TV. All the damn trolls pop up to shoot their mouths off.

Please, keep it civil or leave.
