Is DeMarcus the more talented Javale of the West? But seriously, they’re two of the players I want least on my team that are at least legitimate.

Kyrie’s going to make a lot of people forget about LBJ, unless he keeps on running his mouth off about returning to the Cavs. He’s just a poor baby looking for love and attention.

It’s a good thing Kyrie got to take the last free throws; Jamison, for sure, wouldn’t have made both, and probably not even one [ history is a witness to that ].

Add a couple of pieces, and the Cavs will be a contender in the coming years, for sure.

Casspi’s defence is getting better, from what I can tell, and his shooting touch has gone south- for now. He’ll gain more confidence as the team improves, and a lot of the shots he’s missing now, will start to fall.
