I smell a Knicks/Cavs rivalry brewing after that Lebron statement on Ntilkina

Lebron, is your career and your team really so low right now that you need to pick a fight with a backup rookie 19 year old?

That little thing where he intentionally chested up Frank was something Lance Stephenson would do to him. Its petty and small. Its pitiful that Lebron has to stay relevant by picking fights with bench players.

This was supposed to be the year he went for MVP, but instead its obvious he is hampered by nagging injuries. Its equally as obvious that his team is bad.

Ntilkina may not have put up impressive stats, but the kid makes winning plays. He's like their own Smart in a sense and its rubbing off his teammates.

Lol @ this Cavs team.

It’s still early, of course, but if the Cavs keep playing like this until IT gets in the lineup, they’re going to have to work very hard just to get homecourt in the first round of the playoffs, much less round 2.

It's just fodder so people talk about something else.

We got all our guys back, mask and all. How far can the C's take this win streak?
I moved the cheese.

I can’t believe I picked this team to win the East lol if they keep this up after 20-30 games in to the season wholesale changes have to be made perhaps starting with Lue’s resignation and I’m sure everyone not named James or Wade is on the trade block.

They're guarding Porzingis with Crowder. I mean, I'm not sure that they have a better option other than Lebron, who you don't want getting into foul trouble on Porzingis, but there's literally like an 8-9 inch difference there.

if they play like this the whole season, they might not make the playoffs

I could see heat going on win streak like last year to squeeze in

Hey guys, I found a gif of Cleveland's defense online!



It's an amazing concept. You actually have to play defense when you simply can't outscore your opponent anymore. Lebron better hope IT comes back at 100%, because they're not getting out of the East otherwise.

IT should win MVP if he comes back to save this washed up Cavs team.

I can smell a Boogie Cousins for Porter Jr trade coming in January, Pelicans will be flailing at the bottom and Washington will smell Cavs blood in the water and with Cousins/Beal/Wall combo makes them automatically favourites.

And people think Lebron doesn't get a favorable whistle? Dude just straight bodied up Porzingis on a shot with no call from the refs.
