    Well this will help Skals advanced stats. Might even have a good rebounding game.

    To answer the quiz, it would be a dream-come-true to make McCollum's contract disappear. If the vote is on talent alone, it's Hezonja or Tolliver. But we need Tolliver right now, while Hezonja hurts us everytime he plays with his flashy turnovers. So between Hezonja and McCollum, I voted for McCollum.

    Here's a weird and troubling stat: over the past ten games, CJ has played 379 minutes and shot a grand total of TWELVE fts. He's made 6 of them.
    For comparison: James Harden has played 2 minutes more (381) and shot 136 fts - more than 11 TIMES as many.

    It's not even Tolliver's fault... But he barely belongs out there at his natural position, playing him at center it's just such a mismatch...

    Why would Cleveland want to remind people of the Bobby Sura years? People hated that uni AT THE TIME and time has not improved it.

    CJ’s game is about getting a clean look by avoiding contact.

    I'd take Skal vs Clarkson over CJ vs Thompson. Messed up that mismatch

    Did all those people that gave Melo a hard time for waiving off CJ just see CJ do it to Skal while Skal had a PG on him with good seal position?
