  1. Timestamps!
    00:00: Mitchell Injury Update
    Cavs resting Donovan Mitchell, injury details, team health strategy.

    12:06: Eastern Conference Favorites
    Why Cavs are team to beat, matchups, analysis vs. Knicks, Pistons, Celtics.

    25:18: Celtics vs. Cavs Final Thoughts
    Cavs vs. Celtics playoff outlook, Tatum’s return concerns, closing opinions.

  5. As a Pistons fan, what I take away from the regular season is watching a team learning how to win over the last two seasons, in individual games, in individual quarters. But @ 15:50: when you went on your rant about Cleveland and Boston and Joe Mazzula being the fave for COY, I began to realize that you lack a level of respect for what JB has done this season. Maybe some latent JBB hate but I don't know how you can put Joe M above JBB.👀🤔

  7. Honestly they can sit Don for the remainder of the season. Besides Detroit and Boston the rest of the season should be a cakewalk. Same goes for Harden.

  10. Cavs have to beat the Celtics convincingly like the Celtics have beat the Cavs this year in order for them to be the team to beat in the East. Also the Cavs haven’t beat the Raptors. The new guys have to show us they can help beat those teams first.

  11. DM…breaking down…unfortunately is real….His next contract that will pay him 72 mill per year is REAL!!! It makes you really wonder if the Cavs and especially DM fizzle out again this year if the Cavs just may deal him and buid around our 2 BIGS…and others…especially with that POTENTIAL ALBATROSS extension he's looking for! HOPE he's healthy…but……small guards historically…don't age well!
