    Now, does Cleveland get past Toronto?

    I think they do.

    With that last second 3 by Oladipo, Cavs again did not cover the spread.

    I think they don’t. I think Toronto won’t drop a game against them in ACC.

    No, but he has the potential to be. That kid is a badass, and an absolute pleasure to watch. He reminds me ALOT of Dame actually.

    Yeah, never fun to play with someone like that. In my rec league, I've tried to turn myself into a LeBron type of guy. Always pass the ball crisply to shooters so they have the maximum amount of time to shoot, always hit them in the shooting pocket, always look for the skip pass, and try to draw multiple defenders when I drive so that there's an open kickout. That type of attention to detail is so often ignored and not even coached at the high school level... It's something that I didn't work on till college. I'm still a scorer but I also want people to enjoy playing with me and I enjoy getting guys going.. I don't understand why that's so underappreciated by other players (like Westbrook).

    Dame mixed with D-Wade.

    Not popular opinion and I'm a big Dame fan, but I think Mitchell has a shot to be better than Dame pretty quick. He reminds me of D-Wade with a 3 point shot, that guy is legit, and he's looks to be pretty solid on defense too.

    Need to appreciate LeBron's greatness while we can. He is unbelievable

    What's crazy is he was drafted with scouts believing he'd be better defensively than offensively.

    Yep, he reminds me of Lillard during Lillard's rookie year. Great potential.

    It is and he’s basically the only reason Cleveland are even in there but he can’t win it all on his own. That roster outside of him wouldn’t even make the playoffs. They are missing Irving badly, he was the player that could go on a run and get them 30-40 points to allow James to have some time off. Not a single player capable of that anymore.
