Better take advantage now before my Celts come back and assert their dominance

Another blowout win for the Cavs

Minny's PG went 0-5. 10 game sample size can't be ignored; kyrie is shutting down opposing PGs every night now.


LeBron and Kyrie are easily the #1 and #2 players in the conference now, in terms of individual impact. Would be a massive choke for Cavs to lose the east.

 

[DurhamSon]

He has been pretty good his last three games. Small sample size, but maybe he's starting to get it.


Sulaimon is a better player than him in every way. There's an NBA future for Sheed if he absolutely gives up any semblance of a driving game for at least a couple of years.

 

[rome8180]

Rivers was actually starting to get it at the end of last season.

Is this the rise of all things Duke right now? Everything trending up except Sulaimon.

 

[best4heisman]

Lorenzo Brown played 48 minutes in an NBA game tonight.

 

[torontoduke]

Austin's defence is much improved this season.

He has been pretty good his last three games. Small sample size, but maybe he's starting to get it.

Hawks, tho? 4 of top 15 or so players is pretty good too.

 

[DurhamSon]

3-14, 4 turnovers last night in loss to Memphis. All but assured Thunder miss playoffs unless they go on some absurd .750+ winning streak right now.


He's career is safe though. As long as the current draft system rewards tanking, there will always be teams that want high usage, low efficiency, poor attitude chuckers on their roster.

OKC plays Phoenix twice more this season and both on the road so that uphill climb for the 8th spot is going to get harder and harder. They really need a sweep against the Pelicans this week, they play them on Wednesday and Friday. Looking at their schedule, it's going to be really, really tough for them to go on a big winning streak.

Father knows best. Just took a few games to put him in the right situations to succeed.

 

[ZackM]

Hawks streak is over. Cavs now hold the longest active winning streak.

 

[CK86]

Damn, I wanted the Hawks to be on their winning streak heading into the Golden State game. RIP awesome twitter handle.

 

[rome8180]

A 2-seed is not out of reach for the Cavs.

 

[rhfarmer]

Agree, Rome. They are only 4 back in the loss column, and we haven't had the all star game yet. I could see them losing only 6 or 7 more games before the end of the regular season. They have a lot of road games ahead of them, though.

 

[CK86]

Warriors play the Kings tonight, hoping for a Klay Thompson encore.

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

Redick out indefinitely with a back problem. Danny Green will likely take his spot in the 3pt contest. Austin Rivers will get about 25 minutes a game.

[aiw]

Dookie

 

[CK86]

That was pretty bad. I'm guessing he'll be receiving a fine for that one.

 

[DurhamSon]

Cavs in the 4th seed spot now. 1 game out of the third seed spot, 2 games out of 2nd.

 

[CK86]

Down by 20 in the first quarter, come back and win by 14. Damn this team is lethal on offense. Curry with 51 points including 10 threes. Friday is at Atlanta, should be fun.
