I'm not concerned about it at all. I'm more concerned about him going cold in the Playoffs.

I am not worried. But I'm use to watching fucking Burfict and Pacman Jones screw up things, also.

This and injuries. Shump hurt his shoulder again. And at one point last night Love went sprinting to the locker room in the 3rd. He played in the 4th so I'm sure he's fine but immediately I saw that and thought, "FUCK".

With the way JR does stupid shit, at times, he reminds me a little of Pacman (short fuse).

Love did not go to the locker room. When he comes out he goes directly to the bike by the tunnel I assume to cool down slower...He was never heart last night.

The thing that scares you about JR also makes him great. He has some dog in him and this team needs it. You are right I hope that he never get thrown out because he is very important to this team...also I take it back about the BS call last night. I forgot it was double technical and that is the right call.

Good to know, must be why I never saw it mentioned on twitter.

The local guys made mention of that a few games back that was doing it to cool down, while at the same time continue to improve conditioning, then soon as he's done he's covered in heating pads and towels.

JR & Delly are about the only ones on the team with any "dog." It sucks that one of the guys some teams might consider their "goon" is a key scoring contributor for the Cavs.

In my opinion Delly should not be back and playing yet. His back is not right and he was really struggling to get things going last night and Mo is perfectly able to play some big minutes in relief of Kyrie till Delly gets that back right.

So glad we gave a $110M contract to a "young star".

The good news is, Love will be gone this year if we don't win the championship. He's the scapegoat.

Reports are that Joe Johnson will sign with the Cavs if he gets bought out by the Nets.

Commander of Awesome

I wonder if he'll actually get bought out or not. Also who's time will he eat into? I sort of like our Shump/JR rotation.

Team is fine without JJ. We have a good team, probably the best team on paper in the league. The only difference between GSW and the Cavs is GSW players are actually playing to and above their potential every game while the Cavs are just going through the motions.

It'll be another Cavs-Warriors finals and this time hopefully the Cavs are healthier. I still believe we can beat them in a 7 game series provided we are at full strength.

David Lee and JJ Hickson released.

sportswizuhrd

Sign David Lee, and he does nothing but reveal everything about the Warriors that he can. /s

The two spots should go to someone who can create their own offense on the 2nd unit (Joe Johnson most likely) and a wing player who can play D. Don't think that is Johnson or Kevin Martin(likely to be waived). Maybe even another big if the wing defender can't be found.

sportswizuhrd

Sounds like Lee is likely to go to Dallas.

Maybe not of the big 5-6 who can actually win a ring, have any interest/space?

Dear Cavs Fans Everywhere,

For the last 12 years, I have had the honor of representing the city of Cleveland and the Cavaliers organization, and for that I will forever be grateful. Coming over from Spain at the young age of 21 was a difficult transition, but as soon as I put on a Cavs jersey and stepped on the court, I felt at home.

There were seasons we played well together, and there were seasons we struggled together. We had playoff runs, and we had championship runs. Over the last 12 seasons we have had many ups and downs, but no matter the product on the court one thing never changed… The unwavering support from all of you, the fans.

Whether you were watching on TV, listening to the radio, or in the Q screaming at the top of your lungs, we felt your energy and support. Cleveland fans are simply the best.

There is nothing like walking on the streets on a freezing cold day and hearing fans scream your name, then stopping to talk to those same fans. There is nothing like looking into the crowd and seeing over 20,000 people wearing wigs to match your hair. That's a feeling I will cherish for the rest of my life and never forget.

In a similar way to how Brazil holds a special place in my heart, Cleveland has also become a part of me. I consider everyone in the organization as family - from ownership, the entire front office, all of the coaches I have had over the years, and every single employee from top to bottom - thank you.

The city of Cleveland is truly a special place.

I have seen players and coaches come and go, but through it all I have always known Cleveland is where I want to retire. But life doesn't always work the way you want it to, and at the end of the day, the saying 'this is a business' is unfortunately true.

So with that, I say goodbye. But more importantly, I say thank you. Thank you for your support. Thank you for coming out every night whether we were winning or losing. And thank you for giving me the best 12 years of my life.

Home is where the heart is, and my heart will forever be in Cleveland.
