OKC ran them off the court, but a lot has changed since then.

    I enjoyed the stream. I usually cram a best of seasons bworth of games into like 2 momths of a league pass sub, so its nice to hear a "radio" broadcast option. Better tban others ive heard

    The Cavs seriously need stronger, more physical bigs who can control the paint and dominate the boards. Right now, Mobley and JA struggle in that area and tend to get pushed around.

    Kenny called for a zone in the 4th quarter. First possession – uncontested dunk. Second possession – wide open 3-pointer. No more zone. Please, Kenny, enough of the damn zone already. You keep thinking it's going to screw up the offense, but this is the NBA and everybody now knows Cleveland is going to switch to a zone at some point. Everybody knows it's coming and they're well prepared. Give it up, Kenny. Please. This isn't high school ball. Fire him.
