TRENDING: BENCHING Lonzo Ball for Craig Porter Jr. The RIGHT DECISION! | Cavs TRENDING UP!
On this edition of Locked On Cavs, Danny Cunningham discusses the trends that the Cleveland Cavaliers are on that have helped to turn the team around. After spending much of the year as a bad 3-point shooting team, the Cavs have started to generate much better looks from beyond the 3-point line, which has led them to being one of the best shooting teams in the last two weeks. Next, Danny talks about the team playing Craig Porter Jr. over Lonzo Ball in the rotation.

Cpj all the way
Hi Danny
Locked on Cavs is my go to show to keep in touch with everything Cavs. Am based out of India but have stayed in Cle for 5 yrs and love everything Cle. Jaylon Tyson is a dawg and you can see that he doesnt back down. I think he will be huge for us in the playoffs. Go cavs.
The cavs best backcourt is Zo & Donovan. The second best backcourt is Zo & CPJ.
Play Zo at PG or let him go.
Ball has been awful. His shot is unbearable
Lonzo should take this time to get it together. This is only temporary. Lonzo is 6’7”. The nba will figure at some point Cavs have a height issue at the guard position.Coach will need Lonzo at some point. Just be ready. If Lonzo not ready maybe benched for the rest of the season.
Why did they make the trade for Lonzo anyway? The guy the Cavs let go is balling out on his new team. Is it the Bulls? People in the comments from a video I watched earlier are so thankful to have the former Cavs player. (Sorry I can’t remember his name.)
The energy level is up I guess bcuz they actually making shots now so we look good so far let's keep it going. I do like lonzo ball floor game but his shot selection seems like it was green lit by coaches cuz I've never seen Ball be a great shooter to begin with he need to drive the lane and kick or floaters
When Lonzo avoids the rim and immediately passes it, it automatically creates more pressure on his teammates to take the shot or pass to another player in a hot potato moment to find an open look. When the open look was in his hand twi seconds ago before passing it.
We not developing you play who are producing, cpj tyson tomlins,vets want their spots back stay ready ,then produce…..
Move the ball ,you are open more,elementary my dear watson…
Cavs shooting was always going to get better the issue was always mainly defense and Garland being himself
Ball needs to get better or get traded
Lonzo has to be patient and learn from his early season struggles because there will be another opportunity for him imo..u can’t have this small of a back court rotation and expect to go deep in the playoffs..teams gonna schematically exploit their size over and over again in high pressure games..theoretically the move for Lonzo was the right one, it’s just his shot is in the gutter right now and is so flat since his wrist injury last season smh
I need Danny, Jason Lloyd, and McNuggets in the same room talking Cavs Basketball
Who else is on the floor when cpj is on and lonzo is off?
Cpj is a good player, but he is not in lonzos tier
Okoro for Ball was worst move by Cavs management since drafting Anthony Bennett
Carlito definitely deserves the minutes 🏀
Our 1 and done shots are easy buckets instead of bricking a three in transition
