Game Thread: Cleveland @ rip city

[WhiteMamba]

If Portland doesn't win I am no longer tagging game threads w/ rip city...

Bad luck so far.

Blazers need this one. Need to gain as much ground on OKC as possible.

Cleveland 2 1/2 point favs

Go Blazers!

I see this as a Cleveland win. They have too much talent.

Good luck though!

 

[WhiteMamba]

Thank you. This team needs a little luck right now.

This is the type of game they usually play up to full potential.

Moda Center will be rockin tonight.

Should be a fun one. Think the Blazers take this. Cavs aren't going to click for a while.

Portland has the bigs to match Cleveland

Portland struggling

Cleveland plays no defense

As expected. And they are all still fresh and healthy.
Guys like Kyrie/Love have no clue what it's going to be like taking every teams best shot night after night.

Bad offensive game for cleveland

Now, let's watch James let Kyrie run the offense down the stretch like he said he was going to do.

And this is why lebron doesn't join a team in the west

2 starters in double figures for Cleveland.

Lebron with just 11

Kyrie 2-16

Kyrie often padded his stats in the past in 4 th qtr blowouts/ garbage time.
He'll have his good games, as most NBA pg's will, but there are many NBA PGs who are better then him, including the one he was matched up against tonight.

 

[bksballer89]

I remember when Wiggy was bragging about Kyrie beating out Dame in the summer.

Dame showed who's the better player tonight

If you come into Wes house and expect a W, you will have a bad time.

 

[bksballer89]

4th time in Lebron's career he had a scoreless 2nd half

Congrats WhiteMamba! I'm happy to have been wrong on this one.

The Cavs will need time. But they will be a great team by mid year

Absolutely. Some have already pointed out that Miami played around .500 ball over their first 20 games when the Big 3 first formed up and still ended up in the Finals.
