We're due.

Especially at Miami.  Have the Cavs won a game at Miami since Lebron returned?  Hell, I don't think they have won a game at Miami since Lebron left.

Haven’t won in Miami since 2010

0-14, I believe, in that stretch. I get it with a Lebron-less Cavs but 0-fer with him?

Was invited to game Tuesday vs. Raptors.  As part of this package, I get to play a pick-up game on the Q floor, followed by some "business" and networking, then the game.  Pretty stoked.  Hopefully I get drafted.

Good win tonight. Tristan finally showing up. Clarkson and Hood played well also.

Hill turned an ankle. Just can’t get 100% healthy right now.

Mavs head into the 4th quarter and realize "shit, we may win this....better tank this quarter" and put up 10 points.

It was one of those "we will scratch each other's backs" games.

Apparently. I lost track of the fact that they played yesterday. Then I heard the final score and the fact that Dallas only scored 10 points in the 4th quarter and was like "wtf? Dallas actually had a lead?"

It was a typical Cavs game against an inferior opponent.  Dick around all game, and then put the clamps on in the 4th.  "Active rest."

LBJ fucked around and still got a trip dub. MVP

If he wouldn't have been playing with his junk all of January, trying to make a "point" that he wanted guys traded/needed more help, he'd probably still be right there in the discussion. Still pisses me off with the "unanimous MVP" talk for Harden. Guys like LBJ & Jordan can't get a unanimous vote but "One Trick Pony" Steph and Harden can?

I went back and looked at previous MVPs. I legit think LBJ should have 8 of the last 10. Nash's MVPs are the most atrocious MVPs of all time, and then Curry's first is also a fucking joke. NBA writers love to give MVPs to bitch boy PGs who don't play an ounce of def and are as vanilla as possible off the court.

Oh, there's no doubt that LBJ should have at least 8 MVP's but the fact that he makes the incredible look normal, I think, makes the guys who vote for this crap take him for granted. Same thing with the fouls he takes because of his size. Unless someone's taking him down with a shotgun, he's not getting the call (because he's a physical freak) but some guys get  breathed on and they are at the line 8-10x's a night.

Dallas put in their bench players to tank the game.

I know. My first comment about the game was that they knew they had a lead and said "shit, better tank in the 4th quarter." Wish Brooklyn would do that but they've got nothing to tank for.

In central Ohio, that is correct.

The bench can never make it easy, it seems. Have a 12 point lead with about a minute and a half left. Cavs bring in their second unit, about 15-20 seconds left in the game and Toronto cuts it down to 4, starters have to return to close it out.

Incredible time.  Incredible experience.  Raptors, surprisingly, cleared their bench with 2 minutes to go.  Their bench brought them back (against Cabs bench).  Raptors left their bench in the entire time.

I'd post pictures if the upload actually worked, or if you could successfully share IMGUR pics.  Nope.
