[Wham with the Right Hand]

Biyombo has destroyed the Cavz for years on the glass. He even dominated Tristan Thompson in the playoffs by getting over 20 boards in a playoff game.

Cavz had height advantage over the Pistons yet 6’-8” Isaiah Stewart wrecked Jarrett Allen the other nite. Some of best rebounders in History were 6’-8 and under.

Maybe the 6’-10” Mfiondu Kabengele can play this role in the future for the Cavz. He has those skills

Yes, we have been getting dominated by 6'6" - 6'8" physical players like Stewart, Biyombo, and Keldon Johnson, who had 23 points and 21 rebounds against us this year. Johnson is only 6'5", 220.

I want us to draft one of those guys, only one who can drain 3's all night long.

Watching the fourth quarter when the Hornets upped their defensive intensity and the Cavs could not respond it occurred to me that this was a game between a team with nothing to play for and a team in 8th place that has lost six of their last seven and was desparate for a win. The Hornets dialed it up and the Cavs couldn't match them. Sexton being on the bench with five fouls was part of it.
