Game 82 | Pistons (43-38) @ Cavs (57-24) | April 13, 2016 | 8:00 PM EST

[MoFlo]

From cryptic tweets to silly beats, this Cavs season's been hectic
Blatt got canned, Lue's been panned, there's been plenty of unexpected
Twists and turns, bruises and burns, regular season woes
Players were dissed, LeBron got pissed, activation: Playoff Mode
Kyrie move the ball, Love answer the call, nobody can deny
Scapegoats a plenty, weapons were many, wasn't enough - needed a Frye
JR's team record for 3's, things flow with ease, when this team moves the ball
Too worried about brands, but if the health withstands, we can see through all
Nothing matters in this review, we've gotten just a preview, of what this team can do
When they gel, from bell to bell, from Game 1 to......

Anyone on either team actually going to play tonight?

Best part of the game, not this thread but the actual game? That tight ass poem.

There is no incentive for anyone to play this. This would probably be the last game I would watch tonight but I might keep an eye on it. Got to see those other crucial East games to see where the seeding lands, Kobe's last game, and Warriors game to break (or hopefully fail to) get the record.

Heck, I'm almost surprised LeBron himself doesn't go to Kobe's last game.

Great job @MoFlo that poem was tight! This game will be fun to watch since its gonna be a scrub show, kinda like a JV football game

Awesome poem

Those of you watching this game tonight...why?

Meh, I actually enjoy watching these kinds of games. Especially with the "bench" getting even more into it because guys who normally don't play or have a big opportunity to produce have that opportunity now.

The Boobie Gibson game at the end of the 08-09 season was a sight to behold.

And I wouldn't be surprised if it's played like a JV football game...easily-avoidable collisions resulting in body entanglements on the floor, the ball lazily bouncing off to the side.

The starters' group reaction to the game-winning Marion steal/dunk makes me come and cry simultaneously.
