Game 2: Cavs at Pistons | Wed, Dec 28th | 7:30 PM ET

We split with them in 2 meaningless games during the preseason.. Will Irving bounce back from an adequate performance? Will TT continue where he left off? Will Jamison stop shooting so much?

Irving will play better. He seemed like he wasn't comfortable shooting but that will go away.

I don't blame Jamison for chucking, who else is gonna score? Better him than Sessions. I like how he attacked the offensive glass too.

IMO Jamison chucking is the Baron/JJ effect. We knew when we got rid of those 2 that scoring would be at a premium and Jamison is the only proven player with an ability to score on the team (god help us).

Why are Pistons games always at 7:30? Is there a secret time zone I am unaware of where it is necessary to start their games 30 minutes later?

Irving vs. Knight
Round 3

But this time it matters.

Yeah since Hickson was such a dominant scorer. Really showing that in Sacremento.

I'd like to see Irving/TT on the floor together a bit more, maybe with Sessions as well.

Anyhow I am PUMPED for this game.

This was the start Kyrie needed, with 4 points and 3 assists in the first few minutes.

think you forgot the 'in' prefix before the word adequate

Well I think you wont see much of Hollins. Samardo looks decent out there

I like Samardo banging around down there as a center; I think he's too slow and lacking in athleticism to play the 4.

I also like Tristan Thompson dunks and blocks.

I want to see more of him and Irving together.

He kept that second unit in for a long time. Not that I can blame him.

Oh ya - Jamsion WTF are you doing?

Nirvana · Post #13 » by **Nirvana** » Thu Dec 29, 2011 1:33 am

Yea, I know... I wish Jamison would have finished that lob from Irving too.

Another guy I'm liking is Casspi, I like how fits in our offense. He's making nice cuts and I like how he shoots the ball.

Irving feeling it

Kyrie's looking great. Getting his and setting up his team mates as well. Glad to see him finishing at the rim. He looks very composed and in control tonight. 5-7 12 pts, 5 assists, 3 rebs, 2 stls. That's a nice first half, especially for just 13 minutes.

I am REALLY pumped about these young guys.

Hope you get used to asking that question.

Glad to see Kyrie decided not to be aids this game.

Why isn't Eyenga getting any run so far this season?

Nirvana · Post #18 » by **Nirvana** » Thu Dec 29, 2011 2:26 am

How about Sessions already having more three pointers through 2 games (4) than he did all of last year (3)?

He had 13 3's in his career coming into the season.

He's awful.

Really, he should be in the D-League right now and it's a poor decision to keep him here.

Him and Michael Thompson are the worst players on our roster.
