Not only going to where Jordan went but also getting free Jordan brand stuff. Had Jordan went to IU, we could run some recruiting through that easily. “Wanna be like Mike?” Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Dude its been 30+ years. Jordan's brand is everywhere and more than widely accessible for highly ranked recruits with the shady recruiting crap, They're beyond delusional if they sell anything like wanna be like Mike you need to go to UNC. No current recruit is going to UNC because Jordan went to UNC thebigweave 1 Quote

KingPG21 Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Apparently the Cavs higher ups wanted the younger guys, specifically Sexton, to play more. Too bad Sexton has been just meh so far in the NBA. I guess just throw him to the wolves and hope he learns how to shoot? That is how it works right? Quote

Ty Lue was just a trash coach saved by LeBron and Kyrie. Sexton, Osman and Hood. They need to get rid of Korver, Smith, Thompson and Love. Love in the right system is an All-Star talent. Lue didn’t have an actual system and had no clue what he was actually doing. They hired him because he’d listen to LeBron. Wouldn’t be surprised to see a college coach get mentioned. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners I actually think the Cavs have the worst roster in the league... Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Hawks are bad too for sure. I think the Cavs win like 20-25 games this year. That Love contract won't be easy to move imo. Gilbert doesn't want to tank but I don't see what choice they'll have. Quote

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted November 1, 2018 Posted November 1, 2018 In a head-to-head match-up of IU guys, Vic and the Pacers went on the road and beat Vonleh and the Knicks 107-101. Vic won the scoring battle but Vonleh with a nice double double of 14 and 10. I still have a really hard time relating Vonleh to IU, but he seems to have found a good niche with the Knicks. 10.31.18 YTD W/L Min. Pts.

BGVille Hoosierfan Posted November 3, 2018 Posted November 3, 2018 I really wish McMillan would play Holiday. McMillan is going to screw us over by not giving Holiday and Leaf any playing time. Would be nice to see Anigbogu and Johnson too. Ever notice how the Spurs and Warriors give young guys random playing time? Random starts? And when those players are needed, they step up. Yet the Pacers have good talent and it is just being wasted on the bench. Holiday is Collisons replacement. It is time to play him. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBannersI just don't think Leaf belongs in the NBA. The game is too quick for him IMO. I hope I'm wrong and he becomes a major contributor in time for the Pacers but I'd be really shocked if he's still in the league in 2-3 years. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Leaf is getting a few minutes but he's just too much of a defensive liability and not a strong enough offensive player to make up for that. As for Holiday, who do you play him for? It seems the goal is clearly to let him sit and watch and learn this year and then next year he'll likely be the backup point guard and hopefully eventual starter. It's nice to develop young guys, but this team is in "win now" mode and that means DC and Cojo getting all the pg minutes. Quote
