Even if it was against the lowly 6ers, that Cavs box score is a thing of beauty

It was really fun watching those guys execute in the new system, especially sessions and JJ

I know he’s on the sixers, but I still hate to see Evan Turner struggling so much

College basketball just became more interesting...

I am not surprised JJ is doing so well. Right now, he is averaging pretty much 15-9 with improved D and only playing 25 minutes. Coming into the season, I really though he could be a 16-10 guy if we played him enough minutes (25-30 minute range). He has not disappointed in summer league nor in the preseason. I think we truly have a budding star.

I am also not surprised that Ramon Sessions is playing pretty well. I liked that pickup.

(just thoughts) Other guys i have been happy with what I have seen
-Samardo
-Manny Harris
-Hollins
-Boobie

I teach good life choices. That’s why I almost didn’t graduate High School.
Intensive Purposes? I could care less...
your whole argument is a fallacy!
