    is that an attempt of humor?

    Put them in the east and they'd be in the playoffs.

    Cavs only 2 games out of 8th spot..wow

    I was at a bar in DC last night during the game so I couldn't watch, can anyone give me (without going into great detail) a recap of the third and how we turned a h/t deficit into a 17 pt lead?

    I have a feeling the deng pick up will be bigger than people think. Not only his leadership on the floor but in the locker room as well. Last night was the team we all expected all year. Things are finally looking up

    Bennett and Gee only played 1 min each. It really blows how bad that Bennett pick has turned out so far.
  • bases_loaded
    He's shown flashes. Maybe needs that full healthy offseason to develop.
  • Commander of Awesome
    Bennett needs to go to the D league to log consistent minutes.

    My thought as well. If the Cavs go in to tank mode, due to an injury to Kyrie or poor play, Bennett needs to get 30ish a game to see if anything is there.

    But since team is trying for the playoffs the D League would be his best bet to see if he can find his role in the NBA.

    Ya should be...exactly 1/2 season is gone and you're down two games.
  • Rotinaj
    Whenever you get the chance to be down 30 against the Kings you just HAVE to take it.
  • Midstate01
    Or 40

    Deng's fault

    I didn't watch but checked the box score at half when they were down like 8 and everyone was playing pretty well aside from Kyrie and Waiters who combined for like 1-11. Next time I check out the score and they're down 30. Solid.
  • Rotinaj
    The Cavs scored 2 more points in the first quarter than they did in the 2nd half.
  • Tiernan
    Nice game Cant's

    Cavs backcourt has to be the worst in the NBA. No way should Kyrie sniff the All Star floor with his 43% fg average. Jack and Deion at 41 %. Clark, Gee and Bennett are beyond horrible shooters.

    For the Eastern Conference, out of the top 10 PG's in terms of PPG, Kyrie has 2nd best FG%.

    Especially since LeBron James is not coming back to the Cavs, at least not after this season. James has an opt out and there is much speculation about where he might go if he chooses to leave Miami. But until he does decide, anything you hear is unconfirmed as James has remained quiet and no one was predicting Miami his last season on Cleveland. But in hearing from people around and close to James, they pretty much laugh at and dismiss talk that James would entertain returning this summer to the Cavs.


    Yes its a Bulls blog, but this guy is one of best in the league.

    .001% chance he returns to Cleveland, imo.
  • Rotinaj
    Yea unless we keep Deng and whoever we pick in the first round dominates next year and they win 45+ games there is just a 0% chance. I'm not confident about any of the 3 let alone all of them.
  • bases_loaded
    Is Lebron only going to sign a 1 year deal? Why would it matter who we pick next year. Isn't he a free agent this summer?

    Agreed...I don't know of anyone that thinks he is coming back.
