    He's actually the MVP so far.

    Boobie had been playing very well the last couple games. Nice to see.

    Some things I've noticed tonight.

    Gibson is playing very well, best I've seen in a long time from him.

    Waiters having a good game as well. I think in a few seasons we'll be very glad we have him.

    Irving has the best handles in the league, not close. Dude can dribble and run with it like no one else I've seen. He's up there with CP3 as players I think could dribble in their sleep.

    Mayo was a fucking steal for the Mavs. I would love to know what the fuck happened with him in FA. He's a fantastic player and a steal at $4mil. Might be the best non rookie contract in the league.

    Oh one more thing, Omir Casspi is horrible. Watching him play is painful.

    Kyrie's defense needs a lot of work. He's been terrible on that end this year.

    Cavs now have the same record as the Browns at 2-7. Could 2012 be the worst year ever for Cleveland sports? ESPN said it was 1991:


    * The Browns went 6-10, in the first year of pre-genius Bill Belichick;
    * The Cavs, who had disappointed by losing in the first round of the playoffs the three previous seasons, slumped to 33-49, missing the playoffs altogether;
    * And the Indians went a miserable 57-105, the worst record in the majors.

    2012:

    * Browns are 2-7
    * Cavs are 2-7
    * Indians went 68-94

    NBA TV did a pretty good interview with him. Dallas was where he wanted to go he said. His veteran teammates (Dirk, Marion, Vince Carter) say he's constantly asking questions and seeking advice to improve. Said he's a great teammate.

    He's obviously grown up a ton.

    Brother Todd Mayo used to play high school near here.....he's a junior or senior at Marquette, not quite the player but keeps improving.

    I think that was a given with or without kyrie lol. I really want to see how waiters does as "the guy"

    Looking at Luke Walton goof off on the bench like he's happy to be where he is irritates me for some reason.

    As long as he stays on the bench he can do whatever he wants. 0 reason for him to ever see the floor.
  • Mulva
    Pargo did a solid Kyrie imitation tonight. Waiters 7/22 shooting... now 16/67 the past 4 games.

    Yeah, I don't want him to play. It just irks me to watch guys cut up and act like they are having a blast while riding the bench. He played a decent amount while he was a Laker and now he hardly ever sees the floor. I realize he's getting a big check to basically do nothing but you would think pride would set in at some point and he would try to earn playing time or something.

    He will be alright. I really like our back court and it looks like waiters will be at the least a 15-18 ppg scorer. Now if we can get our legit sf and some bench guys we should be at the top of the east in a few years

    He played for the Lakers because he was a great fit for the triangle.

    "Great" fit or not, he still sucked.

    Wouldn't you? How much is he making sitting there?

    I guess it just irks me to see players act like they don't care that they aren't playing and contributing to a team. Yeah, he's getting paid for nothing and that works for some. I'd just rather be contributing to a team.
