No Varejao, so only Thompson will destroy us on the boards.

Hope we see some more Adrien.

I'm excited to see Kemba go at Irving.

That gives me so much hope. Very winnable game without him in the lineup against us.

I'll be attending this. Really hoping it's a W.

Predictions:

We get a narrow victory.
Kemba outplays Kyrie.
CJ Miles goes off for 25+ with 5+ threes.
Adrien has a monster night against Tristan Thompson.
MKG makes the Cavs' entire wing rotation his bitch all night long.

We got this.

Adrien to have his breakout game imo, 15/15?

Biz also with a double-double.

Kemba for 40 for the first time? Kyrie is headed for greatness but his D is weak sauce.

I'll say that Adrien will pull a Warrick and have a disappoint game after his good game at Chicago. Can't wait to see Kemba going at Irving.

By the way, when was the last time we were the favorites of a game? I would like to think that we aren't the underdogs at home against Cleveland, right? I probably just jinxed this...

I can see Irving just going absolutely bananas against us.

This game has the potential to be very depressing for us.

If Kyrie outplays Kemba.
If Waiters outplays Hendo
If Gee or Miles outplays MKG
If Thompson outplays Biz

The whole board would be on suicide watch.

Go Cats! It would make my new year if Kemba can go for 40 points and get the W on the oh so prematurely overrated Kyrie Irving tonight. How great would it be for Kemba to have a career night on his arch nemesis and it would make for great publicity for him. We'll need a solid defensive performance from our frontcourt without fouling tonight and to keep Zeller and Thompson off the boards. That's the key to victory.

I honestly missed Tyrus...but I hope this doesn't mean a DNP or less than 10 minutes for Adrien.

Because our frontcourt got worst without him...interior defense, and etc.
