Basketball hoops and hearts. This girl loves Cavs basketball if my major in emoticons from Brown is worth what I paid for it.

#Cavs preseason starts TODAY. Look out Bucks.

— Chris on anAmbulance (@TheCavsRag) October 8, 2013

Chris warns the Bucks that they're about to get run over, as if the Cavs were a speeding Ambulance that cannot be stopped. Seriously though, my Aunt got side swiped by an ambulance once, they are hard to stop. Anyone who plays GTA understands.

On a brighter note, IT'S GAME DAYYYYYYYY!!!!!! #chyeaaaaa #preseason #cavs #leggoooo

This young lady's excitement expanded to four, FOUR, hashtags. Cheetah Legos for everyone! Im with you, Tiffany.

I know it's only preseason, but I am freaking stoked to watch the Cavs tonight! New roster, new coach, new season. Let's go! #CavsNation

Even Cavs Nation is beside themselves with excitement.

Bertrum thinks time sucks. I think time sucks too bro, but I'm 26. Time is working against me at this point.

What will #Cavs preseason record look like? I'm saying 8-0..

— Cleveland Cavs AUS (@AUS_Cavaliers) October 8, 2013

Australia thinks the Cavs will go undefeated. Have you seen how many scary monsters they have in Australia? Google it. Or don't google it, it kind of ruins your day knowing some of this stuff exists.

It's almost as good as Christmas Eve!! Cavs 1st preseason game tomorrow night!!!!

— Kaitlyn Popson (@kaympop) October 8, 2013

I think a lot of people like Christmas more than Cavs season, but the heart is in the right place, welcome to the bandwagon.

By now you're probably as geeked about this as I am, so a friendly reminder: Never get too happy, kid.

I have a simple request: Tomorrow is the Cavs first preseason game. They will be rusty. It will be ugly. Don't overreact to anything at all

Random Notes:

-The Game WILL be aired on FSO tonight for the Fred and AC fan club. and WTAM 1100 for you people that can't get enough John Michael and Jim Chones.

-Tyler Zeller will NOT play. He has a strained hip flexor.

-Alonzo Gee is doubtful with a sore hamstring.

-Brandon Knight will most likely lose an ankle somewhere, bring popcorn.
