Yeah I just hope nobody gets injured at this point. That would be a damn shame and a bad way to end the season. We are a team that needs everyone healthy. I would love to have HCA in Round 1 though. We need against the LeBron/REFS if we play them.

all true....home court is big for us.....Lance has always been significantly better at home

IMO Paul George failed at giving an honest 100% effort every night on both ends of floor and being a leader . He has the me me me syndrome, nothing against you my friend I like you . that is and has b

Mark is on an island here. I wouldn't waste too much energy on changing his mind. This team is going to the promise land.. woot.

Finally got to make it out to a game this season tonight with the youngster. Had a good time as always.    Yo, if I see Turner shoot one more three I’m gonna rush the court and vomit on him.

This was an impressive win being on the road because they are battling for a Playoff spot and a Good team = 6 games above .500. We just beat them last week too.

we were down 16 in this game.........its so odd to be able to fall that far behind and then come back and win.

We've come from 15 or more behind at least 10 times

I hate that we always fall behind and cant understand why but we always come back :dunno:. I guess they want us to buy a lifetime supply of Tums?

HCA has never  helped vs Lebron/Refs.

51-50 at the half...

..again.....I wish we'd go deeper into the bench. especially in the first half....

..we don't need to be playing guys 38-40 minutes at this point....

 

 

 

It's not very often anyone but Vic sees that many minutes. We won't be resting guys This team has HCA and maybe a 50 win season on their mind. 

 

Philly won again They just need to lose one for them to start missing Embid. They are 2-0 without him so far.

The schedule makers must love Philly. They gave them the easiest schedule I have ever seen for March and April.

.......Id just like us to slack off on that the final 2 weeks. Play our starters 30 or so minutes a game....you don't have to lose to give players a lighter work load

 Not 37 or 39 (Thad Young last night) We have 5 guys starting who average double figures....

We lose anybody and we're done for the first round of the playoffs even with home court......lots of guys are getting hurt in the last few weeks....and its because they're tired, I believe...

 

I just want us to be smart and not be Boston (without Kyrie in the 1st round), GSW (without Steph in the first round) or Philadelphia.

Once your start gets hurt, its too late to be care ful

WE went with an 8-man rotation against the Clippers....Glenn Robinson played 2 minutes Trevor Booker played 3.....and unless those 2 are hurt I don't know why...

I want to win every game but those guys are 'resting' if you want to call it that...

 

You know the game...We'll probably use 8 guys in the post-season....That's how it works.

I just think 37 or 39 minutes is too much in game 76 when we're almost locked into our position..and we're playing other 'rotation' guys 2 and 3....

i think we would have lost yesterday if they had cut down our starters minutes

 

getting the 4th would be big to me

  Cleveland 60, Toronto 52 at the half........

82-year-old Jose Calderon has 14 points for the Cavs already...wow..Raptors....really?

 

....Toronto not giving us any help...looking bad....playing bad...

If the Cavs get the 3rd it's not the end of the world. I will take the 4th and take my chances vs Philly with HCA who will have an iffy Embiid.

   Final: Cavs 112, Toronto 106  and it wasnt that close....they 'held' LeBron to 27

Kevin Love took 8 shots from the field and finished with 18 points

Turning point?  Probably when The Raptors got off the plane in Cleveland..

..a Boston (53-23) win pulls them to within one game of Toronto (55-22) the No.1 seed

Cavs (48-30) lead Phily (47-30) by 1/2 game..........we're at 46-31

 

 

....how many times does a shorthanded Cleveland team have to beat Toronto before the Raptors stop talking like they're going to win the conference?

Washington lost again too. I think we are going to be 4th or 5th. Cavs want that 3rd spot badly. That Cavs at Philly game is huge. I hope we end up 4th so we don't have to see LeBron until the Conference Finals and we get a banged up Philly team = Embiid being questionable.

      A Write Up On Raekwon Davis' Potential Impact

      By krunk · Posted

      I'm not saying he is about to be a sack machine but you can see some of his potential as a one gap penetrator with that frame.

      A Write Up On Raekwon Davis' Potential Impact

      By krunk · Posted

      Davis came from Alabama. My point of interest as the writer highlighted is he is moving from being a 2 gapper into now only being responsible for a single gap with a lot more penetration from him versus read and react. With his length and power at 6ft 7 300 plus the expectation for him in our scheme is he will be more disruptive. A much more reliable option for us if Grover goes down in addition to whatever else maybe we can do with him.

      Potential/Average/Concern

      By RollerColt · Posted

      Thank you. You guys are too kind, but I truly appreciate the support.    Perhaps I am being too hard on myself… But my point still stands that anyone who makes it to the NFL, whether practice squad or starter, has achieved something prestigious that only a rare few ever achieve.    Over a million high schoolers play. Of those only 7.8 percent move on to play in college.    Over 80,000 people play in college. Only 0.4 percent make it to opening day in the NFL.    Only 2,016 players make it to NFL rosters.

      A Write Up On Raekwon Davis' Potential Impact

      By NewColtsFan · Posted

      Davis had a very good rookie season after being drafted in the 2nd round out of Ohio State (I believe).   Graded in the 70’s against both the run and pass.      But his last three years have been disappointing, as he’s graded in the mid-50’s.   The reason I’m so interested in this signing, is (A) I’m sure it was heavily influenced by the new DL coach, Partridge.   And (B) we’re paying him 2/14.  I don’t recall that kind of money ever being given to a basic backup before.   Don’t think Davis is here to push Stewart, the Colts just signed him to 3/39.  That tells me the Colts defensive staff sees him differently.   I don’t know what the plan the staff has come up with for Davis, but I’m looking forward to watching it play out.
