Anyone got a good link to rewatch games? I've missed every Cavs game so far in the preseason and will prob happen to most Cavs games during the reg season since I'm west coast. Also Firstrow seems to be gone, so another good spot for streaming games would be great.

Seeing a bunch of hindsight twitter drafters saying the Cavs should have drafted Nerlens Noel. I'm happy with what I'm hearing/highlights of Bennet so far and haven't seen any NN footage, so for the guys who have, do you agree?

Same, but I haven't seen any games he's played. I know last season a lot of ppl wanted/predicted us to draft him. Wondering how's he's doing besides his -13 +/- tonight against the Cavs.

I've watched Noel play twice. He's got the same electric type of bounce Wiggins has (which we knew from before his injury), and he's got good instinct on defense.

Offensively he's shown some good footwork and a couple nifty moves as well as hitting a few midrange j's. He's looking good.

I mean considering the current makeup of our team and the fact that he knee "appears" to be okay, Noel. The risk of injury still scares me. D-Rose was able to play a little before he went out again too.

So I guess in a vacuum I'd rather have Noel and his rim protecting ability, but because I think it's too risky to rely on Noel's knee, in reality I'm still okay with AB.

Especially because now AB is starting to show why I vouched for him despite all the crap he spewed over the court last year.

And COA you can pay $5 for NBA's Summer League Pass. It's well worth it. Live and archived games, just like the regular season.

Wow, they don't advertise that well AT ALL. I've gone to NBA.com several times and never saw that. Tried to sign up, said my email was in use, said to send me an email to change the PW, never got the email. SMH Have to wait to see the games I suppose.

I did the pick 5 last year and that was plenty for me. I just didn't do Miami, ny, LA, LA, or spurs...they were almost always on a national TV game.

Then I did Cleveland, Detroit (roommates choice certainly not mine), GS, Portland, and Minnesota.

It was great.

Did you do the League Pass Broadband? I was searching Google about it and found several negative reviews about the streaming quality.

Like this one.

I've done LP broadband off and on for the last several years. I've never had an issue with streaming.

Just curious, why Minnesota? They were kind of awful.

Actually, let me rephrase that. If Kevin love isn't a Cav within 24 hours, then Lebron's people don't know shit.


Should a fun 24

I sure as fuck hope not. Both #1 overall picks the last 2 years for Love? That would be terrible.
