Cleveland Cavaliers @ Denver Nuggets

    Did Moon get hurt?
  • hangonsloopy
    Yeah he's out 3 weeks.
  • devil1197
    Moon is out 1-2 weeks as precaution with a strained muscle.
  • sportswizuhrd
    Lakers, Cavs, Celtics and Magic all go down on the road tonight.
  • devil1197
    Cleveland needs to make the Jamison deal soon if its available.

    Or a move I am tired of seeing JJ on the court doing nothing.

    Why? I don't get why he lost his playing time.
  • wildcats20
    Because he is at best a decent spot up shooter. Moon, West & Parker are better fitted for this team.

    Moon and Parker are lengthy players with better defensive skills. Parker can drill the 3 just like Gibson or drive to the hoop.

    West is smaller but is a beast on the defensive end, can slash and create his own shot.

    Gibson is not better than any of them on the defensive end and can really only spot up for 3's. He has played great but the other guys have more things to offer in terms of overall play.

    Either the Cavs need to trade JJ or bring back Powe once he gets some practice time in after the road trip. JJ is declining and is terrible now.

    Thanks guys,
    I was just wondering why all of sudden he was benched. I know he is a liability on defense but it just seems like all of a sudden Brown quit playing him. I understand it though. Delonte is a beast but lately his play is sporatic. Like tonight he played like he was the only guy on the floor. Didn't pass like he should. Right now he isn't playing consistently, one night on and one night off.

    LBJ with an uncharacteristic 8 turnovers tonight. V had 15 rebounds.

    Sloppy game, nothing more, nothing less...

    I'm not worried about this team, however, JVG and the guys hit on something we've all been saying... This team still needs that stretch 4. I pray that it is Antawn Jamison. He would be perfect alongside Shaq or Andy and could be a nightmare teamed up with Z...

    UnCharacteristic?? He has the 5th most in the league with nearly 4 turnovers per game.

    I think the deal will be there, its going to boil down to whether or not Ferry wants to pull the trigger. Fortunately for the Cavs there arent many teams that can bring the Wizards the instant cap relief that they are looking for. I think a deal that included Z, JJ and some cash towards Z's buyout for Jamison might work. I would assume the Cavs might have to take on another guy so the salaries match up. Cavs havent had solid PF since Benedict Boozer left.

    Almost 4 per game does not equate to 8. Were you home schooled?

    Big deal, Kobe has a better steals/turnover ratio than ringless Lebron.

    1 of 6 categories that Kobe leads LeBron in...PPG, Steals to turnovers ratio, Minutes per game, Steals per game, turnovers, and FT%. LeBron's is a laundry list. Rebounds, FG%, 3FG%, Assists, Blocks, Double-Doubles, Triple Doubles, etc.

    Shut the fuck up Skyhook--this is a Nuggets/Cavs thread. Why do you bring this fucking trash every where you go? Kobe this Kobe that, they lost last night too--go figured out how that happened instead of comparing stats. You've already been owned in that department many times.

    You realize it was footwedge who brought Kobe up right???

    It is impossible now to have a Cavs or Lakers thread that doesn't contain the stupid comparison shit.

    Actually it was pick6 who brought Kobe into this discussion.
    But of course reading and posting without swearing isn't one of sq_crazies strong suits.


    Oh and btw sq_crazies. You might want to re-read the Lakers/Clippers game thread again and see that CAVS FANS are the ones who brought Lebron into that discussion.
  • wildcats20
    Right, I was looking at the quoted post.

    I never brought up Kobe in this thread. Not even one time. All I said was that LBJ had an uncharacteristic 8 turnovers. I stand by my statement.
