Good God. I just glanced at some Cavs stats and they have absolutely no offense.

Their second leading scorer Hickson averages only 11.8 PPG and Mo the leading scorer just a modest 15.9 PPG. No one else is close to double figures. No wonder they're ranked 27th in the NBA for team PPG.

The Cavs have to play out of their minds tomorrow. But I guess they just need to keep the game somewhat competitive. The Cleveland crowd is the main attraction anyway.

 

[Branduil]

All star bigs are so common in the NBA.. so common..

Just wait for the Bobcats to restock another one to sell off for peanuts.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

I hope there are some Heat fans watching this game so they understand exactly why their team looking good against the Wizards is totally meaningless.

No sane person should be wasting their time celebrating a win against the wizards.

 

[Rodeo Clown]

Why push so hard for a mid-season change? As a fellow fan of a perennial bottom-feeding franchise, a coaching change in the off-season+ Top 7 Pick is the perfect cocktail to get you nice and delusional for those quiet summer months, and think your team's gonna be better the next year.

Because Kurt Rambis doesn't deserve a full second season. It needs to be seen how this team plays when they aren't running a system they're ill-suited for. Is Jonny Flynn even good? Probably not, but how would I know given this system purposely plays against his strength?

Mills first PG off the bench. This, ugh, should be interesting. I'm a good three-four inches taller than Patty.

You just find new ways to stealth-brag huh?

 

[BertramCooper]

Why would anyone think the players cared? They're not from Cleveland and most of them did exactly what he did--leave for a team that gave them a chance to win a ring.

Boobie cares immensely about Cleveland. There was even a significant portion of that OTL piece about it. Not sure about the rest of them, though. I'd like to think they do, but I'm well aware that most professional athletes are indifferent to the cities they play in. And that's perfectly understandable.

I don't think any professional athlete cares more about Cleveland than Z, though. The man absolutely loves C-Town.

 

[Red Blaster]

Probably a Magic loss tonight, still terrible on b2bs.

New Orleans arena is dead as hell

Or the other side of things: Why is Portland's backup PG so damn short :lol

... Knicks are going to kill New Orleans if they don't wake up by Friday.

He's probably about 3x as fast as you though.

Dude is crazy quick.

Dunno. NY's style will probably bring the best out of that team. It'll be a fun game to watch though.

I missed what the red shoes were about... heart disease maybe?

AIDS day.

That kind of turnout is just embarrassing. Hornets have one of the league's best records so far, and like 15 people showed up for this game. Save them, Ballmer.

 

[pilonv1]

Dude is crazy quick.

Just hope he doesn't fall in love with his jumper. He's better off penetrating and using his speed

Yea, so far in this game he's trying to run the team, which is good to see. His jumper is not that good, but his form is. Hopefully just a confidence thing.

Yeah, he's not Rondo level bad. When he runs the Australian national team he can go on crazy streaks and hit 6-7 threes, but he can also go the other way. He's really strong in the open court though.

heat beating up on crap teams..."screams from the haters, got a nice ring to it,"


just getting in work for tomorrows game- were gonna win by 20, quote me on it

Charlotte pulls bigger crowds to play the Wolves. Complete Shameball.

This is a winning team with a legit chance of getting to the 2nd round. Shit is ridiculous... Also, Okafor still blows :lol

I have a feeling you will be, a lot.

You're actually the first person to beat up the Heat game. Must have been some pretty quiet screams.

 

[reilo]

I think his range is suspect, but that's to be expected considering his entire career has been in Euroball and college. I'd like to see him take midrange jumpers, but his height is a huge disadvantage because it's easier to guard him inside the three point line.

EDIT: Sean Marks now in! Kiwis and Aussies must be ecstatic!

Nothing like beating up on sub .500 teams.

 

[Sharp]

Howard with that MONSTER BLOCK

 

[pilonv1]

EDIT: Sean Marks now in! Kiwis and Aussies must be ecstatic!

Awesome. Someone bring back Nathan Jawai too.

 

[diehard]

Ahh apparently they back off Rondo because he's quick, thanks Celts Color guy.

 

[Barrage]

Man, I really like Marc Gasol's game.

 

[reilo]

Three straight shot attempts by Sean Marks. 7-0 Boston run.

Hey guys, he's not being left open on accident.

EDIT: 9-0 now.

 

[The Chosen One]

Was it too much to expect for the Pistons not to just roll over?

 

[DY_nasty]

Bobcats go 7/8 - DJ benched.

sigh

 

[PBY]

Was it too much to expect for the Pistons not to just roll over?

yeah, they suck... also they're playing the team of forever

 

[Sharp]

Was it too much to expect for the Pistons not to just roll over?

The argument we were having early this morning about whether they deserve to be ranked below the Wizards didn't clue you in?

 

[diehard]

Is it just me or is Okafor actually beasting on you?

 

[Bread]

holy shit shaq :lol

[DY_nasty]

He's not. :lol

Dude got blocked by Boris Diaw and Diaw can't jump. Bad rotations from Larry's new wtfrotationwtf gives everyone easy buckets.

Wallace doesn't even try anymore. Can't wait til he's gone.

 

[Barrage]

Hell yeah Dero get yours

 

[diehard]

Wallace doesn't even try anymore. Can't wait til he's gone.

Damn didn't think i would be hearing that from you after last year.

 

[Jamesfrom818]

Man, I really like Marc Gasol's game.

He's going to look awesome starting next to Pau when Bynum is injured.

 

[DY_nasty]

Damn didn't think i would be hearing that from you after last year.

He's damaged goods, Hollywood, and one more good fall away from being done. Trade him now while he's worth something... I'm not a blind homer.

 

[zero margin]

Wes Matthews franchise player.

 

[diehard]

Screw you Portland poaching our players gah

 

[Forceatowulf]

Welp here we go.

Tonight is a must win as far as I'm concerned.

 

[Shadow780]

Rockets commentator trolling Phil~:lol

lol what?

Lakers fans have managed to convince themselves that the Rockets are not going to be a complete pushover.

P.Mills +3
