Cleveland Cavalier 2018-2019 Season

In 28 years, there has been 9 teams win the title. 

It has always been 5-6 teams each year who could win.

This year especially, IMO, the Warriors are as beatable as ever.

Which is what lowry is saying...there isn't 5-6 teams this year. There is literally just one team.

Except he literally said there are a handful of teams who can win.

Well that's what I'm saying..there's the Warriors and then eveyrone else. No one else has a chance to win the title. That's why Vegas asks that you deposit $160 in order to win $100 on the Warriors winning it all.

Yeah, usually there can be some parody where others teams may have a shot. Now it's pretty much just one and most of the others trying to catch up with the Joneses.

Although I will say that I think this year's Celtics team has as a better chance than any of the last two Cavs teams of knocking off the GSW's but I wouldn't bet on it. If last year's Boston team was healthy they would've likely wiped the floor with the Cavs.

22 point home loss to the hawks.

And supposedly the Hawks were supposed to be the worst team in the NBA. Does that mean it's now the Cavs? I know they have the worst defense.

Watched most of this game, The cavs are in the thick of it for the #1 pick. They're truly awful.

Didn't watch but from your perspective, are the players that shitty or is Lue just not putting them in a position to win? The roster looks like it could be a borderline 8 seed but it sounds like they are "pre-Kyrie rookie season bad" from what you're saying.

No one can play defense, no one can stretch the floor. It's an athletic team with little shooting (Korver and KLove], very undersized, no shot blocking, no rim protector, no natural passer. It's a bad team.

Fire Lue and Hue

Not confident that Lue is the problem, but I'm also not confident he is part of the solution.

lol--has a nice ring to it--well played

Buddy asked me who my most hated team was (besides GSW), and I immediately said the Miami Heat. He was surprised. Anyone else still hate the fucking Heat as much as I do?

^^^^^ yes

And is anybody else besides me (meant to put "not" in here) surprised that the Cavs would suck.....as in bottom feeders?

I don’t hate or dislike anyone nearly as much as I do Golden State but if I had to pick I’d say the Lakers. And I didn’t like them before Lebron went there so that only helped fuel the fire. 

I also enjoy seeing Boston, Miami, and Houston lose.
