    Their defense in the playoffs is probably the best they've played all year. The defense was definitely worse with Jabari on the floor, but if this year's Dudley can be a valuable team defender, there's no reason Jabari can't get there. Probably also depends on what they do with the center position, but Giannis, Middleton, and MCW should all be plus defenders moving forwards.

      I'm a Celtics fan and even I say Olynk did to much there, he meant to pull his arm to keep him from getting the ball but don't think he meant to pull it out of socket.

        They seem to be really tough defensively, I think it all comes down to Giannis and Jabari though. If those two develop how they should then I could see Milwaukee creeping into contender status but I think they gotta figure out how to be more efficient on the offensive end. Jabari will probably help with that tons, but I'd like to see MCW develop his game a lot more before I'm ready to say they'll definitely get there.

                Assuming the worst case scenario in which Love is out for the season, do the Cavs have any shot against the Bulls? My first thought is probably not. If Mozgov or Tristan gets into foul trouble we'll be ipretty much done in any given game.

                Too bad I was looking forward to our best vs their best, especially with Rose playing really well again.

                    Damn hope crowder is ok.

                    JR went too far. They got a cheap shot, we responded. Should have left it there.

                      Remember the last time JR Smith got ejected in Boston?

                          I try don't post too often in these parts, but **** Perkins and Smith. Both of them should be out of this game, not just Smith.

                              Looks like the Cavs are trying to become the Royals of the NBA.
