    NBA ALL STAR and chosen one Blake Griffin lead his team past the Cavs, as the Clippers didn't score as many points as the cavs did. Congrats to Blake Griffin, for leading the Clippers to another cavs victory!!!!

    Good for them. I've never cared about the Cavs one way or another, but I really feel for their fans. I'll be rooting for them when they aren't playing the Blazers.

    Yes, but they don't have Kevin Love.

    Yeah, but Love is an all-star stat padder who doesn't play defense or help his team win OR MAKE FLASHY DUNKS. Griffin is just an all-star stat-padder who doesn't play defense or help his team win, but gets on SportsCenter every night (win or lose - usually, the latter) and gets superstar treatment from the officials.

    BTW, I didn't see the whole game, so who was Griffin supposedly "guarding" the majority of the time, Jamison or Hickson? It's hard to tell from the box score since they both had monster games.

    As much as I'd like to jump on the Griffin doesn't make his team better band wagon that just isn't true. The guy is a truly gifted passer and an unselfish player. True his defense is about as good as Micheal Jordans would be if the guy was 80 and returned to the league, but he gets his teammates involved. Kevin Love on the other hand is ALL about the stat padding. He viciously takes rebounds from teammates and no longer tries to be an assist machine. Plus he gets to play all the garbage time he wants which is were he gets most of his stats. The guy also shoves/goes over the back at a rate that only blake griffin could challenge.

    I think Griffin is legit and will get better. I think Love is a joke and a jerk and his ego won't let him ever be a team player. The only way Love wins a ring is if he coattails onto a super team like his dream team, the Lakers.

    The voices in your head aren't sources.

    Same reason I hear them. They're loud and don't stop.

    I think this Cavs losing streak was extremely bad for the league. I'm surprised Stern let it go on for so long.

    I'm really disappointed. I was hoping for dueling streaks on Sunday when the Wizards visited Cleveland. Alas, it is not to be.

    The Clipps were staying in our hotel in Toronto, got in last night. A few of the guys were in the lobby as we left and they looked bummed out!
