Dion was sick tonight. Find us a SF.. and we could have something here. I love it. Sorry guys, I'm not on the tanking boat. I want to win now.

Dion was great except for the hero three airball (leave those hero shots to kyrie) and Alonzo plays great D but he shouldn't be allowed to dribble.

As much as I want us to make the playoffs.. I think it is best that we get another lottery pick in next year's draft. Then we should be thinking about the postseason. I don't want us to end up like the 06-11 Atlanta Hawks. Never making it past the 2nd round, staying mediocre as the 4th-8th seed.. That is something to consider, especially when the Cavs are a small market team.

On a negative thompson has been far from impressive. He looks a mess every time he gets the ball in his hands. Doesnt look like hes improved at all on that end.

I understand fully. I don't want a mediocre team, but at the same time, I don't want our young players getting accustomed to losing a TON of games. If we're looking at a top 5 lottery pick again, something bad happened. It wouldn't be a total loss, I just don't want Kyrie, Dion, Tyler, Tristan getting used to that. I would be fine just barely missing out n getting lucky in the lottery. I can't openly pull for the lottery though.

Completely agreed. Although, not wanting to compare situations... Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook didn't get accustomed to losing during their first few years of the league. I just think we are one lottery pick away from being a huge threat in the East. Even though going through another losing season will be tough, it should be beneficial in the long run. We will see what happens though. It's still way too early.

Wow just wow. Great game. Kyre had a double double. The kid was getting his dimes and distributing. Almost like a changing of the guards from CP3 to Kyrie as the future. And I love being wrong about Dion.
Clipper Darrell told me I'm a very lucky man to have a kid like Kyrie Irving running my team

Woah Waiters, where did that come from!! I love that I was wrong about you. Great game all-around for us. if we can sign a SF in FA and package Thompson + picks for a scoring center and move andy to PF.........

That game was pretty damn exciting. The backcourt is set for the future.
And as long as Andy stays healthy I think we're gonna compete for a playoff spot. He's just making this team so much better and it seems like a got a pretty good mid range jumper now as well.

Just caught the game. WOW! Great showing by Waiters and Kyrie in the backcourt, Miles and Gee at the 3, and Zeller and AV up front. We're going to give teams with weak defenses a lot of trouble this year.
On the down side, Tristan looked like complete garbage out there last night.

I stayed up way too late watching this game last night. I was dragging all day at work today, but it was worth it!
What an awesome performance that has to make you feel excited for the future.
