    A little dramatic. It wasn't a great win, defense sucked but 81 points between the stars felt way better than losing to Celtics the other night.

    Kyrie and lebron-less cavs got whooped in Miami last night. Last few min of the game, Rodney mcgruber pushed frye in the back celebrating a dunk and JR smith started chirping at him. Nothing happened, but should be a fun game tomorrow night in Cleveland.

    The NBA in general is weird scheduling.

    Yup, even better that Mr. 4th qtr pretty much lost the game for the celtics. Also, I noticed he was subbed out for a lot of defensive situations late in the 4th quarter [emoji848].

    This is why I said the Hawks win was embarrassing and felt like a loss. This team simply does not GAF about playing defense and it is beyond frustrating. No reason they should be losing to those scrubs at home when Kyrie and Lebron didn't even play last game.

    Dion banks in a 30 footer to seal it.

    Agreed. We need love and jr back. I think once they are back they will start to pick up the intensity. Honestly it looks like they are bored and just want the playoffs to start

    I thin it's too late for that. Past the point of him being eligible for the playoffs. Might be wrong, but think I read that.

    He’s eligible. Players had to be waived by 3/1 or before and since he was never on a roster, he’s good. Playoff roster deadline is a few weeks before playoffs begin. April 14[SUP]th[/SUP] or 15[SUP]th[/SUP] maybe.

    Hell with it, they should just sign Kendrick Perkins and let him punch Draymond in the face a few times in the Finals, not like anyone else on the team would step up to him in an "enforcer" type role.

    I'm completely in favor of this.

    Yes bring on Perkins.

    Can they sign Oakley to punch Kelly Olynyk in the face?

    Notable FA Big men available: Mike Scott, Luis Scola, Jared Sullinger, Larry Sanders

    None of these options are particularly appealing. FA market for big men is notoriously terrible and this is no exception.

    I'd bring in Luis Scola.

    Pyscho T is also available via D-League. Hickson and Josh Smith are available in China as well.

    Slim pickings, but at least Bogut got hurt right away, so the cavs should be able to make a move pretty quickly.

    Hickson would be interesting but honestly at this point all the players available are available for a reason. It's all about which is the best piece of garbage to play 15 minutes a night until Love comes back and then zero minute in the playoffs.
