Highest payroll in league and final goal is losing in finals? Weak, sad, and pathetic. I want another championship. FIRE KOBY ALTMAN. Keep Tyson and Tomlin, trade ALL remaining players for picks and D league players at least 6'6". Tank and start the rebuild. Gilbert overpaid for these guys, maybe he can buy Sam Presti.
Soft teams don't win anything
We do NOT want LeBron lmao
Bull is a waste of skin he hate to see a young man of color be successful it's killing bull to a core he sit around with a miserable life smelling up the studio with his sloppiness look
It would be nice if the Cavs could make a run like last year that'd be great, and it's possible, but what the Pacers did last year was a fluke.
I think their ceiling this year is probably getting gentleman swept in the first round. I hope I'm wrong though and they do better that.
The DBZ analogy is why G Bush needs to be a permanent fixture when taking Cavs on this show😅
No
Cavs soft
Possible i could hit the lotto
As someone who does know DBZ, G is spot on.
Tyson got more upside,I like Tomlin too
Big up to rich paul
Bull like how the NBA let a black dude get what the other black dudes need….. 😠😠
HOLY incredible DBZ reference. Spot on
We’re getting desperate 😭😭😭😭😭
G with the DBZ. Gimme more. Amazing content
