2015-16 NBA Eastern Conference OFFICIAL THREAD

[TurnUpTheHeat]

My guess is due to the size of Indy's front court

I know.
It's really nothing.
Just messin with him because he made such a big deal out of Amare starting, which so far has ended up looking brilliant.

Well looks like I was wrong. Had nothing to do with size according to this article

Sources: Timofey Mozgov to get start at center against Indiana Pacers

Indy is always a handful for Cleveland. 2 teams I think they would rather avoid in round 1 is Indy and Chicago. If Cleveland had it their way, I think they would prefer Charlotte or Atlanta in round 1

Game is on NBATV so can't watch the other teams broadcasting feed. My god listening to Austin Carr is terrible. I feel like I'm being punished

Who's to say they did? Either way, good luck proving it.

Haters come in all shapes and sizes. This is one of the problems in the league today. Owners are always quick to think the worst & worried about things that don't concern them.

This is going to be a good 4th quarter

I'm watching. You're right about Austin Carr. I finally had to mute the tv when my ears started to bleed.

He's awful. Difference between him and Tommy is that Tommy is actually a solid commentator. He is just ridiculously biased towards the Celtics. Austin Carr on the other hand is just a shitty color commentator.

So were in the 4th quarter and Frye has yet to take off his warmups

Cavs bench so far with just 7 points in 62 minutes

Listening to the Cav's announcers on NBA Tv makes me want to punch babies.. holy shit do they suck.

Word is people are upset about the Heat's buyout agreement with Udrih.

They agreed to an amount below his due salary... an amount just enough to get the Heat under the tax line. Saves the heat from the repeater tax.

So either the Heat have agreed to compensate him in some other way (such as a future contract) - which would be cap circumvention and mean steep penalties for Miami - or Beno just decided to give money away out of the goodness of his heart.

Pretty sure Riley is smart enough not to put anything in writing though, so... probably no way to prove it.

it would not be odd if not for the fact that he is hurt and cant make up the money. That part makes it very strange indeed.

cry a little more... nobody wants to play in cleveland.. just understand that and you will be fine.

 

[MiamiVice]

jesus christ.. how do people that are cavs fans listen to this clown... cavs announcers are god awful.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Won't be funny if they get caught circumventing the cap illegally. Though I doubt they'd be dumb enough to put any under-the-table deals in writing.

Won't matter if Udrih is claimed off the waiver wire.

no one is going to claim someone who is hurt.

wtf was i crying about? Did u get banned over there and have to come over here now? LOL

 

[WiggyRuss]

yesterday Lue in the post game said the only 2 guys that were trying were Timo and Jefferson....wouldnt be surprised to see their roles increase if that is the case

 

[bksballer89]

Cleveland in trouble

 

[bksballer89]

Kevin Love can't do anything when you close out on him lol

 

[WiggyRuss]

Cleveland in trouble

its funny - before they could almost be kind of brought together by their disdain for Blatt--- now there is no more excuses and they have to figure it out- and Lue isnt going to bail them out....
