So the four new Cavaliers won’t be ready until Sunday’s match up versus the Celtics.

I guess I don’t mind tanking this one game though since it’s against the Hawks and it could help our Nets pick if the Hawks pick up another win.

I just want to Cedi to get a lot of playing time tonight. No excuses Lue..

This game will show how dedicated the Hawks are to tanking. We traded six players and Love is out with an injury.

Cedi really needs to work on his shot. Like this entire summer.

TT is really bad when he's the only big man on the floor. He's so much better playing alongside Love it's crazy.

Our G-League guys must be soooo bad not to get any run in this game.

And just as I posts that, they put one in.

I think if LBJ doesn't turn his ankle, he's still on the bench.

Yeah wouldn't use him if didn't have to probably.
Little surprised Zizic can't break into the rotation in this game though
Spoke to soon myself Holland in there with LEBRON

Not sure of the exact rule with 2-way contract maybe they can suit up but if they don't log any game time it's not considered a hit on the number of games they are still available to be played in.

I don't think we've got to worry about it with Holland tbh.
