Game 56 | Cavs (33 - 22) @ OKC (32 - 25) | February 13th, 2018 | 8:00pm EST

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Lebron whispered in PG's ear after the horn: "wanna upgrade?" :chuckle:
 
But....but.... LeBron is old. KD is better.... Cavs are washed....
 
I don't want it be understated just how impressive this win was.

Even discounting the officiating which was lopsided to say the least, We just had what was close to a wire to wire lead on one of the best teams in the league without our second best player. Where there blemishes? of course, offensively we still have a lot to work on, but this was in my opinion even more of a statement game than Boston was.

And we are just scratching the surface of our potential. Once our starting front court is Love and Nance...
 
Beautiful win.
It's hard to not get excited right now. It's still only three games. But god damn the new guys are absolutely CRUSHING it right now.

Lance is the biggest surprise. He is much smarter than what I initially believed. His positioning is so great and with great timing on both sides of the court. His rolls to the basket will make us many points.

Really fun to watch and be excited about the Cavs again.
 
Another fun game with the new-look Cavs!

Some of you may remember OKC is my other team. I have to say, they definitely don't play very good defense without Roberson there. Cavs had a lot of easy looks tonight that Roberson's rotations and long arms could have prevented. Even so, I still think OKC doesn't have enough depth to compete for a title, even when they get Roberson back. They play Golden State very well, but they will have to get through more teams than just GS to win the chip. I hope I'm wrong, as a Thunder and Cavs Finals would be my dream match-up :) but we'll see how it goes.
