Good day to be a Cleveland sports fan!

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Yeah, they finally decided to call fouls.

Now re-sign in Cleveland, Don.

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Well, I gotta tell you, I feel pretty good about the whole day.

And out here in Los Angeles, it's only one o'clock

I used to live in LA. Where pro football started at 10am on Sundays. You’ve got a great day ahead!

 

[KilgoreTrout]

This is only the fourth time we’ve advanced to the second round in Cavaliers history without LeBron.

Did we really never win a playoff series with Fratello?

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Nothing better than winning a series...well maybe winning a series in a game where you completely punked the Wagner brothers. Yeah. That's definitely better.

Franz hat heute in seine Hosen geschissen. 1-15 shooting. WOOF!

 

[Ricky1319]

He’s been good all year, was a top2 pick, and is 21. He’s not some middling player that we’re just allowing to get hot or build confidence.

For Boston, is Al Horford going to shut him down? Or will they ask their best player, Tatum, to expend his energy guarding him on D

The thing for us though is say you put Mobley primarily on Paolo, then who’s guarding Franz Wagner? Or any of the other three 610” and up guys they roll out.

No Wade/Allen is a huge blow on defense, and guys like TT/Marcus Morris are emergency depth guys. There should have always been at LEAST one, if not two more capable bigs on this roster besides Allen, Miobley, and Wade

Wasnt Banchero drafted first and Smith 3rd? An earlier post you said you cant believe Houston passed up Banchero for Smith at 1. Am i missing something lol

[Mott the Hoople]

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but,,,

I think this is the 1st time ANY Cleveland team has won a 7th game - AT HOME.

 

[ice cream man]

So yeah we need a real doctor to heal Dean Wade’s knee within 48 hrs
