Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Dean Wade is really starting to show a lot of flashes. I like that he’s putting the ball on the floor more, using pump fakes, and attacking the rim, he might actually be a useful player moving forward.
 
This is was one of those games where if I told you I thought the NBA was fixed I'd show this tape.

A low key game between two bad teams that no one is watching or paying attention to at all.

Just truly awful all night.
 
Sexton was really poor the 1st half.

Much, much better 2nd half.

But the Cavs sealed that loss w/ that 3rd quarter closing lineup which was Sexton, 3 G-Leaguers, and Dean Wade.
 
I've been saying this all season. This organization needs to talk to someone in the league office about the foul calls. I don't understand, why we can't get calls most teams in this league gets. This bullshit been going on since last season.I've seen the Pistons and Rockets get calls their way.



Can someone explain to me,why JB sat Sexton when the lead was cut to nine points in the fourth quarter.Shit made no fucking sense at all...
 
The Wizards' bench outscored the Cavs' bench 58-16. When you have six guys out with injuries you're not going to have much of a bench. Kabengele and Thomas were -17 and -25, respectively.

The Cavs were down only two points at halftime but fell apart in the third quarter, as usual. But down by 19 in the 4th they fought back to within 9 points but then Westbrook took over. At least the Cavs made him play 40 minutes. They competed.

Allen had the best game I've seen from him in a while, maybe since his concussion. He had 18 points, 14 rebounds, and 3 assists. We'll take that line every night. Cedi had 16 points and 6 assists and was a +4. Sexton had 26 points but turned it over six times. The Cavs had seven more turnovers than the Wizards, which cost them some points but not enough to win the game.

Westbrook was just too much with 21 points, 12 rebounds, and 17 assists. Also, the Wizards had too much size in general. Bertans is 6'10", Gafford 6'10", Hachimura 6'8", Len 7'0", Lopez 7'0", and Gill 6'7" were just too much inside. They had 12 offensive rebounds to 7 for the Cavs.

Nice to see Garland back on the floor even if he only played 12 minutes.

71 down, one to go.

You know who he reminds me of? Dario Saric.

And for w/e reason, I just hate Dario Saric.
