Game 5

LOL at that starting unit. We don't even have a second string PF on the roster. Watching Frye try to guard Blake or Drummond is going to be interesting.

Of course with Love out we will win and a bunch of people will create trade threads for Love again.

TT pregame interview. Talking about Griffin. I will make it tough on him....lol. He is going to get dominated tonight like he always does against any above average big man and any point guard he switches out on. Why does that bum have to be the longest tenured Cav. Should have got rid of him years ago.

It is my hope that tonight is a sign that he just lost his starting spot. Nance is already better than him.

JR looks pretty cooked to me. It's going to be a long season holding onto him until draft day when he'll actually have trade value.

The pocket pass to a rolling TT is easily the least efficient play in the Cavs playbook. Once you factor in the turnovers, blocks and misses, I'd bet it has a 20% conversion rate.

Lol...any pass to TT is a bad decision. He has the worst hands. Yesterday, he was like 1-10 and pretty much all his shots were 4 feet or less from the basket. Nance should be starting like you said.

I heard the Cavs offered Hood about 7 million a season in a multi year deal which I thought was too much, and I am glad he didn't take the offer. He is a soft player.

I'm not happy that he's starting but $7M is less than the MLE. You're lucky to get a decent bench player for that money.

This team just doesn't have enough offense without Love to win in the NBA.

Agreed, we got a pretty good deal on a guy who can shoot, create his own shot, and finish at the rim.
