Nwaba has earned more PT IMO. I feel like we need to trade Korver sooner rather than later. With Love injured, we really don't have anyone who commands a double team and Korver is far more dangerous on a team where the other team has to occasionally double another player.

Officiating in the NBA is a very serious problem. There is no reason for the Hornets to have taken 15 FTs in the firsts half. Tony Parker is 85 years old, Jeremy Lamb is a scrub, and they're both getting phantom superstar calls. If a team can't get their shot to fall and is getting blown out, it's not a job of the officials to keep it close by rewarding flailing and offensive players initiating contact.

Not to belabor the point but it seems like the Cavs have led early every game this season, and like clockwork, the whistles start blowing in the second quarter, the opposing team goes on a run, and that's that. If it was because we were playing uber aggressive defense, that would be one thing. But that's most definitely not the reason.

Jeremy Lamb uses his off arm on every single drive. It's a good thing I don't play in the NBA because he'd be leave the game with welts on that arm.

I know we aren't out of the woods yet, but I'm very happy to see that we're able to actually hold a lead for a longer than 1 quarter.

Clarkson is not a PG. One of two things happens when he tries to play that position: (1) he shoots; and (2) he turns it over.

I trust Clarkson to finish at the rim when he needs to, but I do wish he'd distribute the ball a bit more often. I remember a blogger before mentioning that in Jordan Clarkson's mind that it's always "Clarkson Time"

He's fine as a SG off the bench, but that's what he is. Sixth man scorer.

Sexton did a great job defending him tonight and made him work on the other end.

This is such a feel good game. I love being able to just cruise like this. We so needed this. Now we're going to have to wear the City Edition jerseys more often. Hahahahaha.

You're joking but there's a non-zero chance Gilbert decrees it so.

Well it’s not nearly as bad as the other game.

I remember the last time we played the Hornets and got Blown Out, I think right afterwards was when you made that thread asking about who wants to take over as a mod.

But it looks like the Cavaliers has revenge on their mind tonight and finally got their 2nd win of the season.

I think they’re tied with the Suns now for the worst record.

The only reason officiating wasn't a factor in this game is because the Hornets couldn't make a three point shot to save their lives. Our defense was better, but sometimes teams just go cold.

Nice effort with only a short lull in 3rd
That's the Sexton we need as a rookie I wasnt expecting it to show up that fast, but they say he is a sponge and the notion he doesn't eat sleep etc the game is innacurate. He's going to be special in this league after awhile.

Checking in on Nwaba stat line. 18/5 with +22 and 2/2 from downtown.

I wanted badly for sac to pursue him in the offseason as a defensive wing. Didnt realize he was picked up by Cleveland until start of season.

How did he look out there tonight? Does he figure to crack the rotation moving forward?
