We’re playing the Nets? This game is the literal definition of a must-win.

Cavs lose when Dinwiddie easily skirts around TT (playing his 32nd minute) for a buzzer-beater layup.

Wife is going to a Cavs game before I do this year.

Lue better have his shit together tonight. If they lose this, this board will be chopped up into many little bits and the nut house will be getting a lot of new customers.

Oh man... we are going to need the suicide hotline number if that happens.

If we lose tonight the board will have the most intense, white hot meltdown since July 8, 2010.

BUT WE WON'T LOSE!

This is our Superbowl, the biggest game of the year. Losing this game would be a colossal fuckup of biblical proportions.

Don't let me down Ty Lue, just this once. I beg you.

Jeff Green is ruled out, I guess Nance will get extra, extra minutes. Or Lue will still be the jackass he is and play him 15 lousy minutes.

Get ready for 20 minutes of Korver at the 4.

He’ll replace Green’s ill-placed minutes at center with Jose Calderon.

Larry Nance better get around 35 minutes. That is what I want to see.

Lue's head would explode even thinking about it
