Another awesome thing to see, wasn't a real huge deal but Jack standing up for Bennett after the bullshit Vucevic pulled. We need that toughness. Also I liked how AB would barely budge when the bigs of Orlando were trying to back him down, played great D for a stretch and even got under Nicholson's skin, leading to the elbow to the throat. Excited about AB and how he comes back next game.

Don't know if it was mentioned, but so great to watch the 2nd/3rd unit fight this thing out for the win against basically Orlando's five best players.

That's not saying much, but it's saying something.

Watched the game. Read the entire thread. Watched the game again. Loved it all. Quote of the day:

*Rolls eyes* How long into the reg. season are we going to use THAT excuse. He's over it, it's rehabbed and he's 100%. No excuses. The game is too big for him right now. It's looking to be a bad pick SO FAR by Grant. Not saying he won't get better--HE WILL, but so far he hasn't shown me anything to get excited about. not ONE thing.

After watching the game the second time, the best part of the whole game for me was watching Bennett coming off the court during timeouts after sinking multiple outside shots breathing like he was ready to have a heart attack, and then going back out to sink several more long balls....all the while the bench is jumping up and down rooting for him like I haven't seen in several seasons.....the Cavs are ONE.

LOOOOOOOOOL

Retire now. 9 to 1 thanks to posts ratio. From what I can tell, that's the best of all time.

The best part of being at this game last night was hearing the magic douche next to me (wearing a dwight howard jersey) say "That Bennett dude's a bust he sucks"

Then Boom. 14 straight points and buries on the magic. Shut. the ****. up.....bitch

I am not trying to take away from his effort, but i think the reason for the extra labored breathing is because he is out of shape.

Is it just me or does he look a little bloated right now?

No shit he's out of shape. He's been injured and not playing basketball for 5 months (until the past couple weeks). I think that was the point of JFT's post. Bennett was impressive because - in spite of being out of shape and out of breath - he was still determined to dominate in that 4th quarter.

Yeah I could've used a ":chuckles:" after my first sentence. I simply meant that to say he's out of shape is an understatement right now. Gonna be a rough season for him because of it, but I think we're gonna see a lot of glimpses into what he'll give us once he's well conditioned in the next year or two.
