Side note is anyone worried about losing j r? He's been great and we really low balled him with his contract.
He's significantly better than shump yet he got paid terribly. Hope some other
Team doesn't offer him a decent deal and we lose him.
We should have just given him 21/3 and then he's still locked up. He's still be a bargain too.


JR just fired CAA and hired Klutch so I wouldn't worry about him getting paid
. LBJ is the best player in the game and barely worth having on your team at the same time. That's no small accomplishment.



As long as its by us i'm good.


Yeah a lot of drama around lebron. He was great yesterday though, cant believe the bucks record is as bad as it is and they're last in defensive boards specifically.


They've been stealth tanking since the all star break. Longer if you consider starting Monroe next to Parker as tanking.

That Rockets game had the worse officiating I've ever seen.

Disaster is probably overstating it but we fired our coach, our defense is worse, our offense is maybe marginally better, we still default to high PNR when the game is on the line, TT held out until he got overpaid, Kyrie hasn't developed a single facet of his game, there are real questions as to whether Kyrie and Love can both stay on this team, we've traded another 1st round pick, Shump checked out after he got his contract, Mozgov has regressed, and Charlie Frye appears to be a taller and more expensive version of James Jones. Now if we turn it on in the playoffs and shock some people in the Finals, none of this matters. But to date, it's certainly been less than ideal.

Seeing as Charlie Frye is an ex football player I bet he'd appreciate the comparison.

We are playing the Bulls to night with a chance to eliminate them from playoff contention. Will we show up?

Just when I though Lue had figured out the rotations, he starts running out Frye/Mozgov front courts.

The bench was a special kind of putrid tonight.

Toronto has an easy last 2 games while the Cavs play Atlanta and Detroit. If the Cavs lose these last 2 and go to the playoffs as the number 2 seed (having lost it's last 4 games) I will be calling for Lue's head. OMG what a magnificently awful coaching job he's done thus far that is is even dramatic.

Both games are in Cleveland, so I would think the Cavs will win one of them to lock the 1 seed. Looking at the other teams though, the 2 seed seems like a better path for the Cavs. I feel like the team has been ready for the playoffs to start for weeks now. It's going to be harder to reach the Finals than last season though, some tough match ups in the way.

I'll be at the Pistons game so I wouldn't mind if the starters actually played. Lue's in a bit of a tough spot with Shump being made out of glass and Kyrie playing poorly. But that Frye/Mozgov front court needs to stop.
