Irving had a bad shooting night (although, he got to the basket, just couldn't finish them) but he's had a great night passing the ball.

His offense will come, because he's a talented offensive player.

I'll give him way more time than 1 game to call him a bust. Hell, he can take the whole season to blow before I'll call him a bust.

It's not going to happen, but if somehow the Cavs made the playoffs or even contended for a playoff spot, this season would be a failure.

We need to suck and stockpile picks/young talent.
I hope you sensed my sarcasm lol

Yeah, there are rumors floating around about that.

PS, it appears you won't be banned...although, I forgot the other guy had Darren Sproles going.

So somebody tell me about the Kings 1st rounder we have. What do we want the Kings to do and why?

Glad to get this loss out of the way. The pressure of an undefeated season is a little bit too much for a young team like this.

.

They need to keep winning to avoid the lottery, then we get their 1st round pick.

If they suck, they keep the pick this year because it's protected.

I think it's protected next season as well.

Yeah, it's gonna be a long season. Can't wait for Jamison's ass to be gone. Completely worthless, but especially when he's going to shoot 6-20. If you aren't even going to pretend to play defense you can't be chucking 30%.

Also, Ed Davis is smooth. If he gets stronger he could be a player.

So, ideally we want them to be the worst team in the playoffs so we can get a first this season while getting it the highest we can?

I thought the pick was "less protected" next season (like maybe only top 10)?

I'd rather not get the pick for 3 years and get a good one than get the #15 pick next year.

eh, I'd rather take all we can get right now. Sooner we are back to being competitive and winning games, the better.
