Cade Cunningham has great instincts and vision. He's going to be a very good player once he gets some reps in.

Cavs need to upgrade their wings and wing depth asap, watched them enough to know none of them are it or even close.

I was promised a viewing pleasure. That Cavs 9 point first quarter was not pleasurable to watch. Damn they couldn’t hit a shot.

Well their wings are like that (OKC bad) you can sag off them because they are not threatening, hence the Celtics are sniping it big time on the outer and on the inside.

yup i did. I saw but still come on man Grizz is a better team wtf is this :lol: :lol:

The Grizzlies are a bottom of the league on defense while not being close to being a top 10 offense. They have also been down by double digits in every game they've played other than 2 games. They 're not that good and can be got by anyone. They got lucky that the Timberwolves choked away that 16 point lead they had in the 4th quarter on Monday.

“Cade Cunningham is arguably the most complete prospect that I’ve ever evaluated. And it’s really his versatility on both ends of the floor, but he beats you from anywhere on the court," Schmitz said on SportsCenter. "He played pretty much 1-4 for Oklahoma State last season. He can play pick-and-roll, he can facilitate. You can use him like a Luka Doncic as a big point guard or you can use him like a Khris Middleton who can play off of other stars, catch and shoot, score out of the post. So he is a complete stud.”


I believe they drafted a wing as the #1 pick.

That’s what they believe :)

Mike Schmitz is a good dude but I think he had his eyes cloudy (admittedly I did with Green) on Cade. Cade is not a wing or a PG never was

The one time where David Griffin looks like a genius.

Who knew that trading away your 2nd best player to get a terrible college player and taking on the Pelicans trash to get that terrible college player was a bad idea.

Miami no Jimmy, Markieff and now Lowry hurt doesnt matter


To be fair, everyone knows the Celtics will suck it up in the playoffs too. If they even get there.

Jabari Parker's motor is still bad despite being a fringe rotation player.

So when is the conversation going to begin with Jaren Jackson Jr? His offense is basic and he isn't a good defender. Add in the fact that he doesnt rebound, fouls like crazy, and he isn't a facilitator in any way of the word.

4 years in, he's just not looking that good.

I just don't understand what happened to him after his rookie year. He looked great defensively then fell off a cliff. Only meaningful improvement he's made is his 3 ball.

For the Cavs:

Don’t have to play spread defense vs them and Celtics are very good at closed defense anyway.

Their wings aren’t threats or elite shooters nor can they dribble drive and attack off open space. Garland and Mobs are doing the best they can atm but it’s not looking pretty.

This reminds me of the my team all over again lol (we have better shooters but same deal).

The black hole at SF is brutal.

Okoro’s offensive ceiling is probably a league average SG. And that feels very far away
