LeBron started playing defense again and the whole team has followed suit. His PER is 30.77 right now. Remind me again why we give the MVP to guys like Westbrook?

Assuming we beat Wisconsin next week: The Buckeyes had a bad loss to Iowa, but Iowa is better than what, all but three teams on Alabama's schedule? I think Alabama could reasonably make the playoff with that record—even with a crap schedule—but they lost to the only good team they played. They...

Rose's potential retirement could prove to be the best addition by subtraction in recent memory. Ty Lue can't play a bad player 30 minutes a night if he isn't on the roster anymore.

The goal is January 3. I'd be surprised if he came back before that. They really need his scoring because they haven't increased Love's workload at all. In fact, his usage rate is actually down this year. LeBron won't get any MVP respect this year, but he deserves it. The team's been on his...

I wish they'd give Osman 15mpg. What's the harm at this point?

The Cavs aren't winning with this roster, plain and simple.

The good: - The Cavs won - LeBron James is still unstoppable at nearly 32 years old The bad: - The Cavs gave up 122 points - The Cavs needed 57 from LeBron to win

The Cavs traded Kyrie Irving away and somehow signed point guards that are even worse defensively. Thomas is probably the best defender we have at the position, and he's one of the worst defenders in the league. I'm not sure what they need to do to get Bledsoe, but they need somebody that can...

Here's Kevin O'Connor on the current state of the Cavs. He suggests Bledsoe but I'm not sure what you can do beyond that. Thomas will help them score the ball, but they aren't going to outscore teams when they give up 125 every night. I've come to terms with the fact that we were never going to...

It's officially panic time. I don't believe in panicking during the regular season, but this roster simply isn't capable of winning deep into the postseason. Love and LeBron look decent (aside from their total disinterest in defense), but the rest of the team is bad. JR Smith and Tristan...

They won't win 30 games playing defense like they did tonight.

I wasn't online for the game, so here are my thoughts: Holy shit We somehow managed to win the game from Hell Fuck Penn State

Goddammit. I'm still mad about the Sonics moving.

It's going to be a problem in the playoffs again. This team has no defensive identity and can't score like they could last year. Altman won't, but I'd look to bring in some defensive guys. The scoring machine didn't work last year, so it definitely won't work this year. I'd reshape this team's...

I don't know how you lose to Brooklyn without Russell. Their second best player should probably be in the G League. To add insult to injury, this only hurts our Brooklyn pick.

I understand where you're coming from, but Bledsoe is literally better than Rose in every regard. If our starting PG could defend and pass, we wouldn't necessarily need to hit as many threes as last year. Bledsoe is also a career 33% three-point shooter while Rose is at 30%. Bledsoe would give...

This team needs to make a trade immediately. Eric Bledsoe is available, and he probably won't have many suitors, so I'd jump on that. I simply don't think they have the personnel to reach the heights of last year's team right now. And, thankfully:

Limiting minutes literally only matters for LeBron, though. It's still a one-man show. He's in year 15. Not sure why Ty Lue thinks he needs to play 40 minutes per game in fucking October.

Troubling:

The problems we saw last night aren't going away with reps, though. Rose, Wade, and Green are terrible three-point shooters. Those three played 74 minutes last night. I honestly think Thomas might be a better defender than Rose at this point, so if he's able to come back and give us 75% of what...
