  Pretty much. When you're that insecure because nobody takes your arguments seriously, I guess you're forced to invent arguments.

  It's pretty incredible the crying of the troll trash on here.
  
  Sorry for being the voice of reality instead of overhyping D-league trash.

  LOL, poor insecure sleeper is rattled nobody is taking him seriously once again. Probably should take another 10 day break from this site, since apparently his first one didn't help.

  Anyway enough about insecure sleeper creating arguments to make himself feel better.
  
  Hopefully we get a cavs team tonight that is ready to blow out the magic, so they can rest them in the 4th and get prepared for Boston. Boston is definitely treating this game as their super bowl.

  I wish Lue would sit LBJ tonight honestly. Make KI and Love beat the Magic.

  Did Derek Williams do something I missed that he has been getting like 2 minutes? I know his defense isn't good, but he was a good scoring option off bench. Shumpert meanwhile has gone back to his normal awful offensive and overrated defensive self. Give him Shumps minutes

  I was just talking about this with my buddy. I don't get it.

  Where is the joke?
  
  Anyway, tomorrow will be Boston's super bowl. We will see how the Cavs show up on a back to back. I like the Cavs effort the last 3 games. If they give that effort, there is no reason not to win the East. Also, a lot can change in the next few games, but the 2nd seed currently has the easier path.

  I would rather be the 2 if it means not playing Indy in the first, if they make it. Lance back and doing Lance things, but he brings out the very best in PG.

  Not me. I want home court. I'd rather play a tougher first round game to be able to have home court against the east.

  I am willing to bet Boston doesn't make it to the ECF.
• like_that

  

  Also, id prefer to avoid Indiana because PG is a beast, but they could easily be the 7th seed or out of the playoffs depending on how everything goes.

  I wasn't really talking about Boston. I do think Boston makes it to the ECF vs the cavs, but my point was I think the east is much better than what people think. I wouldn't want to play Boston, Washington, or Toronto without home court. I'll take a touch first round matchup if it means we have home court throughout.
• Azubuike24

  

  You're not escaping the East without likely 2 challenging series, so getting home court is important for Cleveland.

  Same as Like_That for me, which means they have homecourt throughout.

  Why is LeBron playing 37 minutes against the Magic when they play against the Celtics in Boston tomorrow? 7 minutes in the 4th and when the quarter started the Cavs were up 21.

  Lebron doesn't really like to play 20-25 min. He either takes full games off or plays full games. Just how he rolls.

  Yeah, I get that. My point is I really don't think Boston makes it thru the second round and thus it the Cavs would have home court.

  Pretty much this. He has been implementing "active" rest for the last 3 seasons. I believe he refers to this as "chill mode."

  TT did not travel with the team to Boston. MRI on thumb pending.
  
  Sanders has been recalled. Looks like some of you got your wish.

  We will see if he plays.
  
  TT's x-rays were negative and the MRI is just a precautionary. Just further proof that this is Boston's super bowl and the Cavs aren't as concerned about this game as Boston.
  
  Also lol....
  
  "Taking nothing from them, they've been playing some great ball, but I'm not one to get caught up in the regular season," he said Tuesday, per Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com. "I'm sorry. I've been to six straight Finals, man. I'm the last person to ask about a regular-season game, dude. Sorry."

  This is exactly why I haven't been worried at all. They are just coasting at this point to the playoffs. They could care less about the 1 seed
