  Realistically the Cavs only have about 7 guys who should be in an NBA rotation, so garbage or not I'll take a W whenever we can get one. Gee is not one of those players though.
  
  Brandon Knight looked pretty good for Detroit. Kanter is off to a slow start for Utah. 2/12 shooting in 2 games now.
  
  Also, is Jan Vesely supposed to get minutes for Washington when he's healthy? I was kind of looking forward to seeing him run with Wall this year.

  I meant in terms of shot selection. The way I wrote I guess was a bit confusing.

  Refs admit D Wade got away with a travel on his game winner last night. Cool. Maybe next you will actually call it. My blind, dead aunt saw that he walked.

  Every year I find myself getting annoyed at how a play is a foul in the 1st quarter, but not a foul in the last 2 min of a game in the 4th.

  Knicks played terrible against the Warriors even without Stephen Curry. This Knicks team should never only score 78 pts especially against the Warriors. I expect the Knicks to play better against the Lakers tonight.

  That wasn't a travel, he kept his left pivot foot down, watch it again.

  Lolz. Don't act like you know the rules of basketball if you don't know that you can't take ANY step after a jump stop. It's either straight up and shoot or get rid of it.

  You cant be taking steps after jumpstop. That is a travel from 4th grade through the NBA...er, I guess only through NCAA lol.
• Ironman92

  

  Yeah, 3 steps Dwayne
  
  Half of the Bobcats bench was across the court and called it right as the 3rd step went down, before the ball went in.
• Ironman92

  

  Lol, woman in 2nd row called it immediately as well.
• robj55

  

  The left foot doesn't move which is the pivot foot, the right steps through, not a travel.
• robj55

  

  Watched it again, didn't see the jumpstop, was a travel.

  When I first watched it I thought he just picked up the dribble, didn't pay attention to the little jump stop.

  First thing I thought of was the Crabb "Dribble" argument.

  lol yeah, what does that even mean( I know what a crab dribble is but the way he put it into context made no sense)
• Commander of Awesome

  

  Ppl arguing if it was a travel or not.

  So does anyone know if Oden is going to play this season?
• Ironman92

  

  Hopefully he plays basketball and not with his phone.
