    I think they would do it in a heartbeat just from a business standpoint alone, his floor for the next 4-5 years is probably still a top 5-10 player in the league. Then again I'm not really THAT high on Wiggins at all. He puts up empty numbers on a team that lacks scorers.

    Haha d--- so he got cleared and they're holding him out?

    Dumb on the Cavs part if true. He's been playing like s--- but has been your 3rd best player. If he's ready to go you gotta let him out there.

    Love has been a defensive liability

    The odds actually became better for the cavs when it was confirmed he was ruled out

    For some reason LeBron plays better when they've been undermanned. It makes him desperate. His fatal flaw has always been that he can't just hit the k--- switch whenever he wants like past greats. It usually only happens when he's on the brink, think Boston a few years ago (sorry redsoxx) and Cavs vs Detroit in 07 when he scored 25+ straight in the 4th and OT.

    Just confirmed that Richard Jefferson is taking Love's spot in the starting lineup.

    That's..interesting to say the least.

    Seems they are still trying to play small ball with Golden State. We'll see if they stick to it throughout the game.

    Curry gonna fold under pressure in Cleveland.

    Lebron better not ruin my f---ing espn streak. Thinking about breaking a few lines out to ease the stress.

    Cavs are off to a great start! Would be great if they could win these two home games and make a series outta this!

    Love is a piece of s--- imo. He had bloated stats playing on a bad Minnesota team. Got exposed badly in Cleveland. Might be the most overrated player in the league tbh.

    Can't disagree. he carried minnesota but that's not saying much. its like like eminem carrying shady records in 2006. i think the cavs would legit win this without him, i feel he's does everything but contribute as a team, more like an individual.

    To me he's like the Demarco Murray of the NBA. Lol. He looked better than he really was in the situation he was in, got way overpaid, and became a huge free agent bust. Bet Cleveland wishes they still had Wiggins.

    Agree 100%.

    Anyways Bron was awful in that half, probably his worst half of the finals. He's lucky his teammates stepped up or warriors would be up again without Curry doing a thing.

    Wait, who other than the stupid f---ing eagles and their s--- posting fans thought Murray was any good? Eagles were the only team dumb enough to over pay him.
