This is a win we need badly.. If we lose tomorrow, things could go bad quickly. The last thing you want is to go on like a 10 game losing streak this early in the season.

 

[Crosby_Cavs]

Bynum will play.
Predictions:
With some luck: Cavs 98-93 Wizards
Tough reality: Cavs 88-102 Wizards

I don't want to be pessimistic but I just don't see the Cavs winning this game, especially on the road. Looking at those starting lineups, I'm not sure we are better than them at a single position with the way we are playing at the moment. If we don't figure some things out and turn it around this season is going to get really ugly really fast

yay another loss

 

[Thelorn]

Not even going to waste my time, at least a UFC is on tonight.

Thanks for filling in on such short notice, Archon. Looks great.

Bynum is expected to return for this one, but we'll get final word on that later today.

I think if I start drinking an hour before the game starts I might be able to watch it.

 

[Pyro]

Would love for this to be a preview of our first round match-up in the playoffs.

 

[kevin02]

With the way both teams are playing are best hope is that we will both be fighting for an 8 seed.

 

[KI2]

Beautiful presentation!

I will be attending this game, which amounts to my very first NBA game. Although the start of this season has not exactly gone like many expected (that may be a bit of an understatement... <_< , I'm still hoping the Cavs can turn this ship around. It's still very early in the season and I'll be doing my best to support the team! Go Cavs!


And on a side note, why oh why did the team get scheduled with 8 weeks in a row of back-to-backs on Friday-Saturday to start the season?! And NONE of them are home-home. Actually I checked the schedule again... and out of the twenty sets of back-to-backs I found... there are NO home-home games. None. I'm not sure how common that is, but it seems strange.

Cavs lose. We fail to score 80 points, and Washington shoots above 48% from the field. 78-96 Washington. This board spirals out of control and by Wednesday everyone is advocating the tank again.

 

[killerkev369]

Prediction: Irving scores 32 points on 16-48 with nine turnovers, which isn't even the team high. Jack leads the team in turnovers in this one with twelve. Cavs lose 86-72.
