We're going to try an experiment during the preseason by moving the game threads into CavsTalk on game day (they'll move back to the Game Day forum after games).

This is intended to make game day threads more visible, especially for new RCF members. A link to the game thread will always exist in the Game Day forum.

Potential streams can be found at this link:

So would you like for me to post them here for the rest of the preseason, so you don't have to move them?

 

[MGMT]

Just start Karasev at SF damnit. See how he responds to guarding George for the hell of it

Keep posting them in Game Day because when I move them, it will more easily create the link. Thanks for asking.

Good to see kyrie leading the team in blocks

 

[B3team]

it is strange watching this team in preseason, because if Bynum is ever healthy, this team is going to be playing a completely different style of offense.

Given Bynum's knee issues, this team may have to adjust some of their defensive principles with him, too. Not sure I can see him hard-show as effectively as Varejao and Thompson. He's so big that he might be able to (or have to) hedge a little more.

Brown said that Waiters and Miles are available to play tonight, but he also said that he may hold some guys out (did not identify them).

Looks like Paul George and Danny Granger are out for the Pacers.

Yeah we would see the 'shaq tweak' to p&r defense mike brown put in the last time he had a Center that lacked mobility

 

[TheAdmin]

Looking forward to this game. See if the Cavs interior defense has gotten any better.

Lets go cavs! I just love watching this team
