Still will be a lottery team, but in the "upper" of the missed playoff teams.

If that makes sense lol
They have some brutal stretches coming up.

Makes sense to me, I just hope we don't turn into the Pacers after Reggie Miller left. Pretty bad, but not bad enough. consistently picking in the mid teens and missing on franchise changing talent.

They better. I love watching them, dont get me wrong, but they need another top 3 pick to ever be a truly good team. Add a scoring center, or SG/SF and this team takes off

Worst place to be in any professional sport.

They are playing some really shitty teams. Once they start playing on the road and against the west things will go downhill. Enjoy it while it lasts. Irving is bound to hit a wall eventually.

So how many people are showing up at the Q this year? All sellouts I'm assuming?

This team is getting better and Kyrie and T2 are franchise cornerstones. The overall talet is still bad. We'll see a bad swoon soon. Cavs should finish with a very bad record and a top 8 pick.

I'd love to add a guy like Barnes to Irving and T2.

im okay with that (not like this team couldn't afford another top five pick). just enjoying the play of kyrie and tt so far. actually looking forward to the adversity just to see how they handle it

Opener was a sell out. Other two games have been around 15k. I know you're just Trolling though.

Cavs fans a smart, support an owner who cares. They didn't lower ticket prices but they do offer great benefits to season ticket holders.

pleasantly surprised to be honest. i thought it was going to be ugly when i first heard about the 30% renewal rate amongst season ticket holders. also, top-notch trolling from skyhook as usual

No, I was told that they would continue to sell out this year by "certain" Cavs posters because Cavs fans are not bandwagon fans, just checking up on the status.

Same, especially considering the opponents, because you know games like Miami and LA will still fill the seats. I was expecting 2002-like numbers (maybe 12k a night).

If they could average 15 for the season I think that would be a success.

This isn't the Tribe where fans are disgusted with the owner. Dan Gilbert is dedicated and we can see a plan in place.

Filling 3/4's of a Stadium is a success? That would be "being bandwagon fans" when they used to sell out all the time when a certain player was there.
