Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

[tsteele316]

Yea, I could live with that one too.

Now that they're in the #4 spot, they have near a 38% chance to move into the top three. The possibility of getting to number one is no longer that far-fetched. On the other side, they have around an 82 % chance to pick in the top five. While we all would love Davis, getting a top five player would be sweet.

Davis
Kidd-gilchrist
Beal
Drummond

I won't put Robinson there because he's not an upgrade over TT (IMO).

I'll be glad when this season is over because I'm not sure how much more I can watch of a lineup that has Casspi, Walton, Parker and Erden in it. It sicken us me to watch that garbage out there. I'd rather see 40 minutes of TT getting better and Gee getting more consistent. The sight of Parker out there just pisses me off.

the problem is that TT, Gee and Irving are all clearly worn down from playing the compacted schedule and having to play so many minutes on top of that. those guys simply aren't used to those type of minutes that often. that's fine, as it accomplishes the ultimate goal of tanking, but it's pretty obvious at this point that this team is dead. jamison and parker both suck, and both are old to the point that they can't sustain the minutes. boobie is done for the year. AV might come back in another 10 days or so. the rest of the bench is d leaguers and scrubs that piss byron off so much that he can't even stomach watching them on the court.

i also don't think that cleveland is going to bring 4 rookies into camp next year. i wouldn't be surprised to see them try and package some picks to move up this year, especially if they were to take drummond. then, they can try and move back up for a wing player like terrance ross.

I agree, T. I know those turds need to play but to see them all out there together just pisses me off. Parker, more than anyone else is such a waste.

While I would love to see them trade up from the Lakers pick to get a better second pick, I won't hold my breath.While most second rounders have little value, that NO pick should be pretty good. It sure would be nice to bring in Drummond and Ross though.

Either way, I want to see the 'tank mode' continue. With their April schedule, it's going to be rather easy to accomplish.

Wonder if we'd draft Brittney Griner with 2nd pick in Round Two... no way she's female.. look at her and listen to her voice.. that's a dude

i also posit that there is no way she is worse than ryan hollins.

 

[Brutus1]

Nope, just look at her jump. She's a female all the way.

I'll admit that the first time I heard her talk, it was a little creepy.

Irving's shoulder still bothering him. Now out 2 weeks. Maybe there is
a chance to move into the top three before the lottery.

I keep staring at the Hornet's and Wizard's remaining schedule and I just don't see more than 5 wins left for either team, which is what it would take even with the Cavs going 0fer.

And the Cavs are certainly, certainly, capable of going 0fer at this point.

at least they can set records?

The Cleveland Cavaliers, who lost to the Bucks at Quicken Loans Arena on Friday night, 121-84, were defeated in Cleveland by the Spurs on Tuesday evening, 125-90.

From Elias Sports Bureau, the Cavaliers are the first team in NBA history to lose consecutive home games, each by 35-or-more points. In between those two defeats, Cleveland lost to the Knicks in New York on Saturday night, 91-75.

Following the loss to the Spurs, Cavaliers head coach Byron Scott repeatedly said that his team is ?not even competing.?

Another recently updated mock draft, this clown has the Cavs taking shooting guards in the first, and two small forwards in the second.

Assuming the Wizards beat the Cavs twice and the Bobcats twice they only need to win one more game. I bet the can beat Miami's bench to close the season. They still have Detroit and NJ as well.

Assuming the Wizards beat the Cavs twice

Those will be interesting games.

Schedule that, please.

Cavs/Wiz can play at halftime.

 

[exhawg]

Nice to see Irving come back for a game the Cavs didn't have a chance to win and "re-injure" himself to be out a least a week or two for games that they actually could win. I like this plan.
