Josh Smith and Marvin Williams have a lot to prove tonight.
More importantly I don't know who to root for in the Toronto- Charlotte game tonight

I have a bad feeling they aren't going to get ahead of us in the win column. cheer for them.
Detroit and Sac have been playing better as the season progressed so they should overtake us.
Nets should overtake us. They brought in more talent and Lopez will return soon. The only reason they don't overtake us is if Deron's vagina has too much sand it.
Warriors are two wins ahead but if they keep resting curry they are going to be Bobcats level bad for the rest of the season.

Welcome to the board guys.
And right now, Toronto is losing by double digits against Charlotte.. Hope the Nets win tonight.

Nice to get some fresh blood around here.. Any chance we can get this game thread to 2 days before the game even starts?

I have always detested Walton from afar, cant stand his old man and never liked his game. Now I get to detest his game up close. Never cared for Baron either and that worked out pretty well so I guess I'll just have to roll with it. Waived Kapono, I guess one white stiff per trade is enough.

So excited to see King Walton make his debut. Remember he's bringing two rings to CLEVELAND.
Nah but seriously, great to see TT inserted in the starting line up even though it's at center. Kinda mad I can't watch this game but we've been rolled over by Atlanta the last couple of times we've played them so I don't think I'll miss much.
Donald Sloan will be backing up Kyrie from on now.

The Hawks beat us 5 times consecutively.. Doesn't look like the streak will be ending any time soon. And it's a good thing, seeing how the Nets and Raptors lost today.
And TT is really starting? That's great. No more Hollins and his butter fingers. Thank god.

Published: Saturday, March 17, 2012, 6:45 PM
Thompson, noting that Atlanta beat Cleveland, 121-94, on Jan. 21 at Atlanta, has a simple plan for Sunday.
"We have to come out early and hit them in the mouth," he said. "I'm going to do what I've done all year, run the floor, rebound and be aggressive. ... I'll play each possession like it's my last."

I'm super pumped to see him and Irving start together.

Jamison must be unhappy that he wasn't traded. This is by far the worst shooting game he's had in a while.

Agreed, let's buy-out Jamison after we go on a skid. Make it seem like a favor to him. Then we tank to get pick four or five...

I thought Jamison said he wanted to be with the Cavs for the rest of the season..

Alonzo Gee was such a great find for us. Gems like him will make the rebuilding process much faster. He could be a great SG/SF bench man or 5th best starter on a championship team.
That dunk he just had was huge. Hes a joy to watch.

Solid loss.Jamison's chucking saved the day.
Now come on Pistons!

He did and he's helping us get better for next season. Hopefully he decides to stay for cheap as well next year. I wouldn't be mad at all

We had zero chance of winning that one. Just a horrible all around game. TT did not look good playing center. Jamison, AP, and Gibson all had bad shooting nights.
If there are any bright sides, it's that Hollins didn't play. Irving had his first double double in his career even though he didn't shoot particularly well. Gee had a solid game.
