Reminds me of when baseball players lose it (Ankiel pitching, Knoblauch throwing)

Waiters missed a 5 foot shot in the lane by 3+ feet and then traveled on a break away dunk.

A career long mental block?

Interesting how much better the offense looks without Kyrie.

No, this is pretty much a golfer with the yips.

My son could guard him right now. He passes as soon as it touches his hands. Zero need for help side to even acknowledge the pass going to him. No clue why Donovan still has him out there.

Love with a great game. I wish he was open to coming off the bench tbh. Seems like when he, kyrie, and lebron are on the court it clogs up the offense.

Dion has played three games against the Cavs since being traded, and without looking at stats he has just been god awful.

I had to look at the stats just for the lulz.

Last two games vs Cavs: 2-15, 8 points

Last three games vs Cavs: 7-30, 22 points

LOL

I don't think even the terrible stats can show how terrible he was.

I have been pretty open about my hate for Delly. BUT he's been pretty damn good all year. Today he had 2 early turnovers, but after that he was fantastic.

Westbrook is incredible. I love watching him. I'm annoyed by his non stop angry faces. I mean he could make a bucket to go up 2-0 and runs down the court with some sort of facial expression. I just think it's annoying. But I still love watching him play.

Kevin Love was awesome today. He was aggressive. Never once settled for a shot.

Jr was fantastic and LeBron hit jumpers. Also Mozgov has been pretty damn good lately. That's so encouraging.

I'm really excited to see how they use Frye.

Two games in a row that I've watched okc, pacers and today, they've had great first quarters and then been average the rest of the game. Once teams sorta settle in on letting the big two score but keeping the other guys quiet, they're done. And dion getting so many minutes is insane. He's God awful.

It's an irrelevant signing. AV is hot garbage and is definitely in the bottom 10 players in the NBA.

As far as loyalty and AV being a fan favorite; he was only loyal to Cleveland because the Cavs overpaid him every year because Lebron.

And he wasn't always "loyal." When things were bad, I'm pretty sure he wanted traded (when LBJ was gone).

I don't get some of the over the top reaction on this, especially from some of the dumbass media, calling him "Benedict Varejao" and "traitor." Once the Cavs moved him, all's fair. I don't blame him for going to GS. Yeah, it would suck to see him win a ring with an archrival but he had every right to join WHO he wanted to as a free agent.

Where was he going to get his minutes? Even Frye won't get that many minutes (most likely) as the 8th or 9th man. AV will get some playing time in GS, but he's not going to be what ensures them a ring.

While I love Andy, he wasn't THAT loyal. He signed an offer sheet with I think Charlotte, they cleveland matched. So its not like he stayed and took a discount.

I disagree that frye won't get minutes though. I think he will get minutes. Probably most of RJ'S minutes in sole games vs certain lineups.

I don't care where he signed; he's a garbage player. I never really liked the guy or his agent. He always wanted ridiculously stupid contract terms and he never could stay healthy more than a 1/3 of the season's in which he did play. He barely can play offense and he's now too slow on defense. Good riddance to him and his massively overpaid contract.

I'm not really sure why GS even bothered to sign him. Did they even bother watching him play recently? I hope he works his way into the lineup before the NBA finals so the Cavs can sweep them. AV is a net negative value add to them.
