    27 and 16 last game. If anything's trash, it's your posts calling Nurkic trash.

    One-man team can't beat five. Balanced attack from Portland.

    Any team with LeBron James pretty much should be odds on favorites to win their conference. Doesn't mean he WILL, but seriously, if the guy wants to score, he will.

    Nurkic is playing infuriatingly terrible. I’d rather hav Zach play his position the entire game if he feels like throwing up those silly layup attempts again. Refs the only ones keeping Cleveland in this at all, they can’t guard us whatsoever. We’re playing great D for the most part but they’re calling fouls on everything.

    LeBron can go fuck himself. This Cavs team is NOT that good. LeBron can't do it by himself, and they have 8 something guys out with injuries.

    Come on Portland. Wake the fuck up.

    He's getting challenged today by Lebron and co. Against Miami he had a much easier time.

    We're doing a good job defending the 3. That's their biggest weapon outside of LeBron. LeBron is scoring so much because we'd rather let him take 2 point shots against a single defender than to let him pass to an open 3 point shooter like Korver. So far, so good. Even with refs massaging the score, we're still ahead.

    Nurk let his emotions take over. Needs to be smarter. We need him in this game.

    Nurk is learning. We've seen him at his best. As he grows up, he'll learn how to do it every night. Not worried about him at all. Especially with Dame and Stotts there to work with him.
