Game 68: Cavs @ Clippers, Mar. 18th 2017, 8:30 PM EST

[Real Deal]

Going to the game tonight: see if I can get some good shots. Cavs better win for the money I'm paying for these tickets

I feel bad for you lol.

Considering the resting bullshit, teams should not be allowed to charge more $$$ too see the better premier teams.

Why the fuck are they resting against the Clips rather than tomorrow night against the Lakers?

I think because Kyrie was going to sit with his knee so Lue must've figured screw it

I totally agree with you. With the Lakers in full tank mode, we'll beat them regardless of who we throw out there.

Pretty late in the season, if you have to rest your star players in b2b games away from home you better do it against the stronger opponent of the two. You're guaranteed at least one victory this way.

We would have more chance at 2 Ws if we rested the 3 tomorrow.

Health is the key for us.

Would have been a great game for Sanders to get a lot of good NBA run and get some chemistry with our bench, but of course he has to be playing with the Charge today. Nothing really to look forward to. Maybe hoping JR and/or Deron can catch fire, but that is about it.

the NBA has to start doing something about this. Shorten the season or something.

 

[Real Deal]

Might be some laughable fines heading our way.

Love isn't cleared for back to backs yet and Kyrie isn't quite ready.

Didn't want to put LeBron in a position to have to carry the load with the other two out.

Sucks for the fans at the game tonight and for ABC but it make sense. Living out here, I'm definitely glad I didn't drop money to go to this game.

As far as fines, the only guy who is truly sitting for non injury related reasons is LeBron.

as badly as the Clipps are playing you never know...we may shock em...

Pretty sure season length is changing next year. Actually getting longer to avoid back-to-backs and 4 games in 5 night stretches. Doing this by shortening the pre-season by a few weeks.

Problem isn't the length of the season, it's the tightness of certain stretches of the schedule. We have 5 back-to-backs in less than a month in the next few weeks...that kind of shit needs to go away on every teams schedule.
