Well that was fun. The Cavs balled out tonight, and just about anyone who played did something awesome. However nothing could be as awesome as this:

Nothing else need be said, as this is the greatest video we will see in about a month.
Back to Cavs stuff, though. I don't have enough time to tell you how awesome today was, so take Cleveland's word for it <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>To sum up: 1. 11 will be retired. 2. Tristan Thompson got a jumper and that's scary. 3.

To start our coverage of the Cavs, the best (and only) dude named David on our staff broke some national news <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>76ers head coach says he doubts Nerlens sees the court this season</p>— David Zavac (@DavidZavac) <a href="https://twitter.com/DavidZavac/statuses/392405000959180800">October 21, 2013</a></blockquote>

Seriously. The Season. It's like a messed up 30 for 30 plot. "What if I told you that the Philadelphia 76ers traded their best player for a center who would never play that season? Well..... What if I told you that those same 76ers did the SAME THING THE VERY NEXT FREAKING OFFSEASON?" At that point Simmons just pops out of a cake and lights a picture of Dr. J on fire.
Cavs games are an awesome place to be. They're also a great place to take a stranger. Take Rachel, she's looking for a pal. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>Someone take me to a Cavs game this year (:</p>— Rachh(: (@rachel_tay88) <a href="https://twitter.com/rachel_tay88/statuses/392483289191424000">October 22, 2013</a></blockquote>

Dan Gilbert is excited about the Z thing. We all are. Me especially though so Dan if you're reading this lets go get some Danny Boy's and talk about Cavs stuff over a game of Dungeons and Dragons. I got a buddy that has been rated on Angie's List as the best Dungeon Master in Northeast Ohio. Call me man. Seriously. Dan. Man. Call me. Please. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>B11G day on March 8th, 2014 for the <a href="https://twitter.com/cavs">@Cavs</a> franchise as we honor Big Z by retiring his jersey.

MourtGirl is excited about Z too. She has been carrying this poster around for three weeks and we didn't even find out about the jersey retirement until today. I dunno. I'll fight the poster if I have to. Why he's pointing at her like that....

It's not all sunny though, because somewhere out there exists people that liked the 76ers before they became THIS, and presumably they will suffer through still liking them. Lucrative job offers help though: <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>So if you are over 7ft.

Well.... brother I can assure you there isn't enough PED's on this earth to make that team good.
A sight that should be familiar to Browns fans (no this tweet won't be a new Quarterback), this guy is not happy with management: <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p><a href="https://twitter.com/Sixers">@Sixers</a> trash of management.

On this slow preseason night, we leave you with an homage to what we saw tonight, and where we have been. The awesome crew at Liberty Ballers prepares their fans for the worst. I feel like we could tell them how to make their feels help better to feel the feels that the tank brings. I dunno. Godspeed, you poor souls. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>9 Days Until Sixers: Prepare For The Worst <a href="http://t.co/wbJIGXVWOp">http://t.co/wbJIGXVWOp</a></p>— Liberty Ballers (@Liberty_Ballers) <a href="https://twitter.com/Liberty_Ballers/statuses/392274131221110784">October 21, 2013</a></blockquote>

So yeah, if you watched the Cavs tonight. Good on you. If you though Ron Ron was about to murder Tyler Hansbrough and hide the body right there on the court, even better. If you've seen Dan Gilbert, or my Girlfriend around town with the freaking Z poster, call me.
Go Cavs
