    What the...Jockeys slogan is "supporting greatness".

    It's getting a bit ridiculous how everyone in the league is trying to sell the replay station. It's starting to feel like they are telling us how good the kook aid tastes.

    I would really like all the Nic haters to go back and watch his defense tonight. He was on LeBron and Kyrie tonight and played fantastic. No stats will show up in the boxscore showing what he did on that end, but that was the key to this victory. It's not always about scoring.

    Yeah, and the last time was his 4th game in the NBA. It's been a while since someone shut him down in the second half, but it's a process...

    Problem is getting past the Sacramento Kings in the WCF. NBA Finals will be easy no matter whom we play.

    Cavs scored 34 in the first quarter.

    They scored 48 in the next three quarters.

    Is this legit D or do the Cavs just suck right now? BTW, I absolutely loved how Dame played D last night whether he was on Waiters or Kyrie -- he took the right angles, fought hard through picks, and contested every shot. Great improvement.

    From what I've heard, LeBron essentially got fed up with Waiters/Kyrie and just said, "fuck it."

    He referenced bad habits from past seasons, and he was obviously talking about the chuck-it twins. I think that team is too young to really get the big picture. Irving, Waters, and Love are all still in that "me first" phase of their careers. It's totally different from the Heat with a veteran team and three stars who had already been there and done that.

    I wonder if they sold reversible LeBron jerseys.... Cleveland on one side and Miami on the other.

    Once again, T-Rob provided some really important energy and toughness.

    IMO it was a huge mistake not extending him

    Yup. We extend the big white bust, but not the guy who has been busting his ass since we traded for him. Makes no sense to me. This summer could be a huge mistake if things don't go to plan. I have no idea what Neil is hoping for.

    I missed watching T.Rob be what we've come accustomed to. I agree that I wish we should have extended T.Rob, but I understand why. I just wished it was Leonard instead of T.Rob

    I think that's what went wrong in the first 3 games - Nic was guarding Lillard.

    C'mon, HCP. You know better than most this was a great team effort defensively.
