  1. I completely disagree with Mike on Mobley. It is really difficult to score in the paint during playoff basketball. If Mobley develops his midrange/non paint scoring ability that would be the biggest leap he could take. That makes him an absolute monster in the short roll off of pick and rolls with Garland and Mitchell. The dunks and threes mindset would be limiting his advantages.

  2. Idk that I agree with the criticism of Mobley for last night. How many shots you expect him to take in a game like last night?

  3. Bro did bull just say that he only watches Cavs games when they’re on National TV? Bro are u serious? And to think we sit here and hear him talk about Cavs basketball

  4. Cavs looked amazing last night! And Sam EARNED that starting spot…(at least until DG returns)…Sam plays both sides of the ball and love how he gets up in people's faces to defend…

  5. When Mobley is the star on the floor with Allen and Don out by all means he should be in the paint more but Im not upset if he wants to work on that midrange either. Against some of the bigger bodies on the Pistons I see why he would take that shot over them rather than try to go into them. Hes not always good at the line either

  6. Bush “they might deport all the ppl I know” YEA if they are illegally here and not talking the bulshit gotta just scream asylum. SEND THEM ALLLLLLLL HOME! you can go with them real talk if you’re upset about it

  7. Let’s do a basketball segment with four guys that know nothing about basketball and barely watched the game and we’ll have the only guy that knows something in the background asking questions to the four that know nothing about basketball….

  8. everybody needs to pirate games until they lose enough money to come up with a reasonable way to watch every game.
