Cleveland Cavaliers 2012-13

    He even hit a couple jumpers. Waiters had a big 3 down the stretch and kyrie was lighting it up the first half but didn't do much the 2nd but I did like how he seems to find the open man a lot.

    It'd be a wet dream of mine for Cleveland to snag Ben McLemore from Kansas in the upcoming draft. Perfect player for Cleveland. We really need a wing on this team...bad.

    Saw an article about him possibly getting #1 overall consideration; hopefully that's not the case as I think we'll be in that 4-6 range, assuming lottery odds play out.

    This team is so freaking bad. Worse than last year. Time to start holding Byron Scott and Chris Grant accountable. A home loss to Sacramento?

    Kings are 2-13 on the road.
    Suns are 2-14 on the road.
    Pistons are 3-14 on the road.
    Raptors are 4-15 on the road.
    Dallas is 5-13 on the road.
    Portland is 5-11 on the road.

    They're a combined 15-80 in road games outside of the Q, and 6-0 in Cleveland.

    meh yeah they are bad. I will wait til next season to hold them accountable if they suck. Still only ~8 NBA caliber players on the roster.

    Let them be bad, who gives a shit. Keep racking in top 10 picks and they gotta be good eventually.

    Not if they keep blowing the picks.

    I don't think we've blown any picks. It's too early in the careers of any of our 1st or 2nd year players to definitively say whether we should or shouldn't have drafted them (Kyrie being the exception because it's fairly obvious he's a superstar).

    Just gotta hope TT keeps developing and we can find a legitimate wing player this draft so we can move Waiters to the role of Harden/Ginobili type 6th man (playing starters minutes).

    I like Muhammad. Almost a perfect fit for what the cavs need

    Wouldn't mind McLemore myself. Kid's a stud.
  • Pick6
    Thompson has really been playing much better since Andy has been out.
  • Pick6
    Kyrie had 16 in the 4th, along with the game winner with one second left.
    Kyrie with 33
    TT with 19/13
    Miles with 18.

    Cavs only played 8 guys tonight
  • SportsAndLady
    Kyrie is a monster..such an awesome ending
  • Mulva
    CJ's really stepped his game up since the start of December.

    Great finish but it shouldnt have come down to that, there's no way that you should blow a double digit lead to that team

    I dont understand some of Scotts rotations, Shaun Livingston should not be getting more minutes than Dion

    TT is starting to look like a legit NBA player

    TT is really starting to come together, though I'm worried that his big games come against shitty opponents. Hope its not a mirage.

    Even against better opponents, he displayed the similar repertoire of moves. But he just wasn't finishing at all. He was getting good looks, but left all those close shots short. I think he can develop. I don't understand why some have started to give up on someone who is a raw athlete, young, and coachable. Not to mention it's only midway through his 2nd year. I like him a lot going forward.

    Tristan looking good again, this time against Houston. He's just looking more confident out there and learning how to play in the post.
