HUGE GAME...this is one where I need a 12 pack and some liquor

I just saved mine from the last game. We whipped the Magic so good I didn't even feel the need for a single drink.

I'm really not liking that GWS that Jeff Teague put on us.

 

[AuxiliaryPie]

The college stuff is a nice touch!

lets go cavs!!

 

[Simon]

ESPN should pick up this game and drop the DEN/MEM one. But, anyways, this will feel like a playoff game, hope our guys can play like they've been.

 

[CavsFaninNJ]

As important as this game is we also need NYK to get stopped by Washington. I tried to get in the bldg but tix start at $100. Not about to pay that much so miss a cavs game.

Ill watch both games simultaneously at home.

Pumped.

 

[PepsiRacer4]

Must win this. I'm really hyped for this game.

When push comes to shove, the magic numbers between us, the Knicks, and the Hawks that deliver us a playoff berth mean nothing if we lose tomorrow. A loss tomorrow essentially ends our season.

Easily the most important regular season Cavaliers game in almost a decade. (2004-05 season when we lost out on the 8th seed to the Nets on tiebreaker)

 

[Simon]

Anderson Varejao apparently may play tomorrow and that would be HUGE.

 

[tristan+kyrie=$]

wearing my cup tomorrow night to prevent a nut kicking

 

[Toph]

I've gotten my hopes up a lot more than I should have let myself. If the Cavs lose this I will get emotional as fuck.

I've gotten my hopes up a lot more than I should have let myself. If the Cavs lose this I will get emotional as fuck.

Just remember, if we win the games will only get more stressful here on out

 

[hitman7742]

Just remember, if we win the games will only get more stressful here on out

I'll gladly deal with that stress

 

[JFT]

It's now officially game day -- go Cavs!
