It'll be Golden State Cavs in the Finals. I don't know who wins that but I'd lean towards Lebron James.

Not sure GSW will make it. Not often is a jump shooting team making deep runs in the playoffs, but is love for it to happen. They are fun to watch.

Not to mention they have players that have long injury histories. If Bogut is out again, can pretty much kiss their chances goodbye, unless they have a Magic v Cavs like shooting series.

Cavs shooting like shit today, and still up 11 in the first quarter.

Kevin Love shooting even worse than normal. 8reb though.

So the Cavs obviously jacked up the season ticket prices for next year. So much so that my partner who goes in with me decided to bail. Now what do I do? Pretty tough to bite the bullet for the whole package myself.

Everyone knows all of those who wanted Wiggins instead of how it went down.....but it's just not on topic and winning 10 in a row and mentioning of Wiggins is FW/Iggy-like

Someone tell Delly that he's not supposed to shoot in crunch time.

Someone tell Blatt that Delly shouldn't be playing during crunch time in Canton, let alone in Cleveland.

He has hit 3 3's in the 4th tonight, and a couple the other night. I don't know exactly why he always plays the 4th quarter, but he's done well the last couple.

He's been very productive THIS 4th quarter. Gave up a 3 point play but hit 2 himself and caused 2 turnovers.

I do dislike that this may potentially keep him around too much in the 4th but enjoy him being useful tonight

He shot shitty, but Love overall played a really good game. 15 Rebounds, and +/- of 26

It was definitely on topic. The Cavs were playing Wiggins.

But, I took the debate to the NBSA Thread for that purpose. It no longer is a debate for a Cavs thread (until Minny plays them again).

Def during that game....I'm just tired of it a bit in general.

Good to this team rolling up win after win, need to keep it going for a while longer

You guys know what you just did right? Next time they play Laley will make 6 Wiggins posts in a row instead of 3 just to fuck with you all.

Coming into tonight's game, the Cavs have, over the last 10 games, had a defensive rating that would rank 12th after ranking 23rd until that point.

Over the last 10 games the Cavs have the 8th best defensive rating in the league.

I thought the same thing. Shot bad, but his overall play was good. Strong rebounding and defense is coming around. His shooting his been lousy lately, hopefully he can rest up and find it after the break.

Delly had a rare good game. Still don't know why Miller doesn't take his minutes. Any Ray Allen sightings?

Kevin Love needs to start shooting the ball better. He's never been a good shooter but the team needs him to be average...not piss poor.

I thought I saw they only raised it something like 10%? (Came from Rovell and I asked for a link so take it fwiw)

Love ended up not leaving the floor for another hour after the game trying to work on his shot. He definitely needs his confidence back

Miller? Dude looks like he's 60 yrs old out there. Delly in the lineup in the 4th is actually, somehow working. Cavs have been really good in the 4th lately.

Miller sucks. Delly still sucks. The best part about this winning streak is Ray Allen will probably join the Cavs if he sees them contending. They will a 2 seed at worst in the East so I think Allen is coming.
