I don't know who is going to be in the lineup for OKC but I am guessing the Cavs wont give up 148 tonight. Not really a measuring stick game to me but after the ASB it will be interesting to see how all this works out. It obviously cant be any worse but I think in 27 games this team can figure out rotations, and how and where to be to work to each players strengths.
Of course other teams will be compiling info to put into their scouting reports as well. The remaining games of importance to me are the Raptors games. Those will be measuring stick games imo.

SO I bet the Cavs win 70% of the remaining games maybe 80%.
This game should be pretty decent if Russ plays,& due to the OKC front court but personally don't see how OKC can match up aside from their starting 4 Abrines not included who might be as bad of a defender as IT3.
They have no depth compared to the Cavs either.
If we continue to play freely off Lebron and let him orchestrate everything like against Boston this team could easily go through the East without much regimented sets. No primas no entitled douchbag migets and no delusions about whos team it is, makes for another level of "team" that this city has never seen before.
The break is also going to get everyone more in tune so to speak and should allow for further rotational movement without drop off.

Adams should got to jail for his abuse of thompson. Seriously TT is an embarrassment. Adams is really good but still. Nance was great throughout and ended up winning us the game.

Why did lue play tt so much?

Can we petition LBJs wife and kids to tell him we are better when George Hill brings the ball up the floor and Lebron plays off the ball?

Last night observations:

Clarkson loves to shoot

We are not as good when the ball sticks with LBJ :banghead:

We need another defensive minded Big :nod:

JR clearly saw Nance running for the open pass at the end of the game with that outlet. Yah right :lol:

We can get better if we share the F'ing ball, please start the call for LBJ ball to stop now that we have youth with talent on the floor.
