Ohhhh.

Friday night's game of the Cavs and Celts will be nationally televised on ESPN at 8pm! Oh, man this is going to be a great game to attend!

"Wham with the right hand"!

HD, you've seen some bad Cavs team in the pre-LeBron days.

IMO, the Thunder may be the worst NBA team of all-time.

Were those miserable Cavs ever as bad as the Thunder are looking right now?

As far as I'm concerned, Durant would make for great trade bait in the future- I don't think he'd want to put up with a team that is becoming the Detroit Lions of basketball.

Yes there were a lot of bad Cavs teams. Most of them came during their periwinkle and black jersey days. Gawd those jerseys were horrid!

One of the worst seasons in recent memory had to be the '02-03 season where we went 17-65. This was Carlos Boozers first year as a Cav.

OKC will zoom by that. I have them losing 72, 73, or 74 games.

Considering they're geting whooped by the Timberwolves tonight (as of now it's a 31 pt. deficit), I think you may be right. The Thunder are horridly bad!

Rockets just beat the Celtics. Jeeze this team is struggling. They have now lost 6 of their last 8! What the hell is happening in Bean-town?

When Houston can go into Boston and win without T-Mac, got to give Houston some dap for being able to do so.

These Rockets, IMO, if they can get healthy and a decent playoff position, could create havoc.

If I wasn't concerned after the last two games, I am NOW at DEFCON 1!

Yes, the Rockets are a step up from the last two losses, but when you consider the way the Celtics have played the last two weeks AND they're at home.....I really expected a win.

Just a mid-season slump, nothing to lose sleep over. Nobody is going to win 70 games this season. Your boys are just a little tired from carrying that trophy into every game they have played this season. It's a bitch playing with a target on your back every night. Get worried if one of the big three gets seriously injured.

I hope you're right, but they really haved looked terrible since Christmas.
