    Cavs up 1 after 1, low scoring slugfest in Orlando

    Magic erase Cavs 9 point advantage. It's getting spicy, double techs and trash talk

    I just figured eventually a mod, maybe @PtldPlatypus or @SlyPokerDog or @Chris Craig or somebody with real powers would change the name into something like “The 2024 playoff thread”. You know something all encompassing and that actually tells you what you are clicking on?

    I would have done it but I'm just a ghost mod, apparently.

    'click' is one of those new-age words. It can be a noun or verb. It can be an adjective and even a derivative pronoun. It would reach the apex of versatility if it could be a dangling participle.

    don't downplay Strenuus moderation. We need reality checks when Blazer fans hand out Micheal Porter Jr. comps to Justin Minaya.

    Cavs are folding, only 10 points in 3rd qtr. Intense Magic defense, WCJ leading the charge. Orlando NEEDS to trade Carter and FRP for Anfernee Simons.

    it's simple... Sharpe, Reath & Thybulle squashed the Cavs back in November. If you lose to Portland, it can become a draining and complex problem.

    roughed up Indy good (the 2nd win was Siakam's big debut. Everyone got mad and called it a stupid trade. Pacers seem to have recovered)

    Leaving the mighty Blazers seems to be the kiss of death
