Thank God the Cavs traded Wiggins. Could you imagine Rose being guarded by that kid for the next 6-7 years in the playoffs?

I expect us to be great post all star break.

Right there with you on his one. I expect us to be great, with the largest improvement coming in defense.

We just need to get healthy. If we can head into the playoffs with 15 games with our entire roster, I think we can go into the playoffs in a nice groove.

Right now, without Noah and MDJ, and to a lesser extent Ray, no matter how we play now, is a little irrelevant, because Noah and MDJ are such big parts of our team.

At least this season we're not dealing with major injuries. *touch wood*
Why so serious?

Indeed. I'd be thrilled to have a fully functional roster with 15 games to go. Rest Noah, Pau & Rose during that last 5 game run and get ready to win 16 more. We just need to get through these next 40 games ok. I think we'll have a much better regular season next year but it truthfully doesn't matter at all. Miami never cared about the reg season, they just wanted to be healthy come finals. We need to borrow that philosophy.

Add Toronto to the list of Top East teams that have lost their damn mind and are terrible in January.
