Well, in his defense he is correct if that 1 player is LeBron

Which is why he's repeatedly talked about buying his GSW championship shirt this year. Fake fan knowing his team's trash, so tries to piggy-back off an actual championship caliber squad.

Sam Amico‏Verified account @AmicoHoops









Free agent center Larry Sanders nearing deal with #Cavs, league source tells Amico Hoops. Still a couple obstacles to be cleared.

Definitely a good option with Bogut out. I hope he can still play basketball.

I just hope he can play defense.

Signing Larry was pretty much the last resort move. Anything over 8 minutes a game and it's a huge win. Luckily for the cavs, every other "top" team is playing like complete ass outside of the Spurs. Wizards are now #2 in the East, but 12 of their last 18 games are on the road. They are below .500 on the road.

14-15 for the year but 9-1 in their last 10 games away from D.C. Bogdanovic might be the best deadline acquisition in the league at this point. There bench was horrible until that move was made and he's giving them 16 a night.

I think they are the 2nd best team in the east. It's between them or Toronto.

I'd give edge to Toronto, but their both more of a threat than Boston.

Over/Under 125 points for Houston? They are good at shooting the 3 and Cavs defense has sucked of late.

Harden 26/14/10

The shit Kyrie can do full speed with the ball is just head shaking.

Harden 9 assists? I must've missed 4-5 of them.

Wonder the last time 3 Cavs had 16+ points at the half?

Houston with about a million offensive rebounds tonight.

Rockets +12 on offensive rebounds in less than 3 quarters. Kevin Love please.

Kyrie can't hit 3's tonight and J.R. Smith looks bad.

TT has been miserable tonight. -27 in +/- and been Nene's bitch in the 4th quarter.

LBJ & Harden are apparently the bestest.

This game was infuriating. Total laziness on the Cavs, doing the thing were they get up and expect the team to roll over. If they're going to play like that, then sit LBJ for a few games.

I'm trying to be patient, but this team has done nothing but piss me off since this month started. They really need Kevin Love back.

Larry Sanders signed with the Cavs today.

Team looked like shit last night. How do we lose to the Rockets?

Giving up too many offensive rebounds last night did them in
