[Rich]

Not gonna lie, a loss would be huge tonight. Huge.

Semih Erden (groin) expected to play 20-25 minutes tonight for #Cavs, but Samardo Samuels (groin) is out again vs. Bucks.

If Samuels can't play Mon at DET, BScott will shut him down for Wednesday's finale vs. Wizards, too. At this point, doesn't look promising.

Huge night tonight.... Cavs-Bucks, Clippers-Rockets, Timberwolves-Nuggets

Seriously guys, rooting for the Cavs to lose over a freaking lottery pick? Never in my life time will I ever cheer for a Cleveland team to lose.

 

[Heights]

I don't root for the Cavs to lose. Never. I always want Cleveland teams to win.

What I can do though is point out the fact that it IS a very big night with lots of consequences depending on how the 3 games I mentioned above play out. That's just fact.

Game isn't on tv in columbus again. By the box score i can tell they are doing a great job tanking though.

I like Erden pretty well, but he needs to block out. He needs to be a step quicker, but hopefully conditioning will help. Can he get an oop? I am not sure.

Gee is looking better and better. Unless he really learns to score, he will only be a backup. There is a lot of room for a backup that can play good D and hit the open shot. Basically our Parker replacement.

Baron looks disinterested tonight. He wanted to beat Chicago, not so sure about the Bucks.

Cavs better not blow this. I doubt the wolves win again.

Both Clippers and Cavs are losing!! It a good thing!

Both Clippers and Cavs are losing!! It a good thing!

And Minnesota is up early...

Did something happen to JJ and/or AP?

Just asking because the box says they played 4 min in the first half. JJ is out there for the 2nd half but no Parker. Not that I care about Parker playing.

 

[Kouki]

JJ had early foul trouble and it was expected that Semih would get more minutes. Don't know about Parker, but Manny was playing well in the first half...

Edit: back spasms.

Cavs made it a little too close when they cut it to 2 late. Luckily the team we've watched all season appeared and made mistakes to pull out this much needed loss.
Good night for the future and for draft night. Cavs lost, Bucks won and Clippers lost along with the Cavs giving minutes to young players.

I'll always root for Cleveland teams to win too but there are times where losing is the best thing to help try to achieve future meaningful success. One of those times is now where late season wins in a lost season mean nothing but could harm future possible success.
