Yeah my b, looked at his current season stats for reb numbers. I disagree that he's a borderline all star though. Not in my book. How can you be when you only play half of the game?

Ask Steve Nash. Or Dirk. Or Amare. Or Kevin Love. Or Al Jefferson.

Fair point on Nash and Amare. They are simply Horrendous on the def end. I would put Blake in same category of Amare. Which says about all that needs to be said. Nash at least has high basketball IQ and is one of the best ever on the offensive end of the floor. Blake is no where near that. Love to be honest I haven't seen play enough. I disagree on Al Jefferson, and Dirk plays passable def.

its like the cavs constructed this team to be super fun when kyrie, dion and andy are on the court together and to make sure the team nets one more high draft pick with how (laughably) bad this bench is. and i am okay with it

Pisses me off to see him on a skateboard. Glad he didn't get hurt, but dont want him to tear his achilles the way dumbass Suggs did.

Post players dominating the first quarter tonight. Varejao and TT with 20 of the Cavs' 24 (15 for Andy), and Lopez and Humphries have 16 of the Nets' 22.

I'm really thinking we can get Toronto's lottery pick from okc. I would be ok with that. It would give us 2 lottery picks this year

How do you let Jerry Stackhouse blow past you?

Also, I hate Blatche.

7, maybe 8 players on the team that are average NBA caliber. We still have some building to do.

And 3 of those nba caliber players wouldn't see the floor on 75% of the teams.

Also not impressed with the Nets tonight either. Def not a championship contender at this point.

I hope so. Need to do it before he gets hurt. His value is sky high right now.

I love what Varejao is doing this season. He's been a great hustle player for the Cavs for a while, but he will be traded. He's doing too well, and some team is going to want him for a play-off run.

Trade him yesterday.

Get as much as you can while you can. The injury's coming.

He's a top 25 player THIS season. Career averages don't matter; this season he is top 25.

I know everyone loves how AV is playing, but I agree with this completely.
