Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

Cedi Mind Trick on the Pacers in the 4th Quarter. 21-0 to start the quarter and the Cavs are just lighting it up after a poor shooting first 3 quarters. Guess who breaks the run? Yup, Duane Washington Jr.

Bummer Cavs had to give up that first round pick, means EJ Liddell will be off the table for the Cavs in the draft

Cavs started this game about as poorly as you can start a game. Were down 20, while only scoring 5 (yes, FIVE) points with about 3 minutes left in the 1st Quarter. Cavs really started to heat up with about 6 minutes left in the 3rd, and then they just smacked the Pacers around in the 4th. Was probably Rondo’s best game in a Cavs jersey. Also, 39 rebounds in the last two games combined for Jarrett Allen.

Cavs got both Allen and LaVert for an injured Ricky Rubio, Danté Exum, two non-lottery first-round picks, and two second-round picks. Seems like quite the steal to me.

An injured expiring contract Ricky Rubio. Not sure what the concern around that is. If he wants to come back, and the cavs want him back, I can't imagine he would be anything but happy they got another good player for the pacers to pay him for a couple months.

Not sure who Tim Larson is, or whether he has any legit sources, but here's his take....

That's it I'm getting a Kevin Love #0 jersey. For all the shit he's been given since the move to Cleveland he's handled it better than anyone could ask of him. Now, he seems to be enjoying the hell out of his role and playing with these young guys every night. They are constantly lifting each other up and they are fun as hell to watch. I'm very happy for Love to reach this point with the team.

I feel like Love mailed it in when the Cavs were having down years recently - last season in particular. Now that the team around him has improved, he has undergone a revival. It may have made very little difference in terms of wins and losses that he didn't try his best, but he still deserves to be dinged for a lack of professionalism. He's doing great right now, and I'm glad to see him turn things around, but he didn't handle things very well all the time.

wouldnt his lack of trying super hard have actually helped the team to tank therefore assisting in getting them to being good again? so you could see it as he tarnished his own legacy and career to help the fanbase and franchise. otherwise he could have stat padded and made his career numbers look far more impressive and kept the team on a middling path forever.
