Congrats to the Lakers and their fans on a great overtime win against a very good team. And to Lonzo Ball who seems like a very nice young man who should become a star someday in the league, even if his father is a fucking asshole.

That was a fun game to watch. Too bad Lavar will try to make it about him.

Very disappointing.

If you would've told me the Cavs were gonna start 3 - 2, I would've believed... but I wouldn't have believed the 2 L's would be the Magic and Nets.

Well when I saw thwie next 6 games: ORL, CHI, BKN, NO, NY, IND...I thought they could 5-1 and possibly 6-0 on that slate with NO being the only loss. The Cavs are playing like shit. Can't defend the 3, scoring is difficult at stretches for everyone not named Lebron and turnovers are killing them.

Looking at the remaining 3 games from these 6 games, the only lock win at the moment will be the knicks unless the cavs start playing better.

Yeah, last night they finally started defending the 3... but then they turned it over 20 times.

meh...

It seems to have come back around and galvanized the team. They end up playing great defense vs a solid playoff team. I'll take it!!!

I mean, Tacos in an OT game!?!?! :shocked:

When I first looked at this, I was thinking..."Where's Lebron"? Even looked closer at the screen trying to see if the picture just wasn't that clear.


Then I saw him way up in the right hand corner. Not good.

That was the best defense I've seen them play in at least 5 years.

Jeanie needs to call Dan Gilbert and demand that the Cavs put a minutes restriction on Lebron for the rest of the season.

Gotta protect that future asset. :heh:

LeBron said something before the Nets game that was interesting and so far proving to be true.

The Cavs, defensively, do well when they are playing a team with stars --- a team that runs the offense through someone. AKA, Celtics, Bucks, Bulls.

Their defense has been awful against teams that are just moving the ball and not running through anyone - aka the Magic without Aaron Gordon and Elfrid Payton - and the Magic without DLo and Lin.

They're gonna have to figure that shit out cause the Warriors are the kings of not running the offense through anyone.
