Is Kyrie hurt? He looks off tonight.

I think this shows how LOADED the West is.

Pelicans look like they could be a Top-5 or 6 team in the East honestly.

East is just as good as the West. Let's kill that narrative already. Aside from Warriors and Rockets, West have similar record. And Rockets have now similar record to Raptors.

Well, on the bright side, AD scored a ton, Kyrie and Horford struggled mightily, and the C's overall played horrible, and yet they are only down 10 and not say, 40  :P  ;D

it was an ugly 1/2 no matter how you look at it...
25 to AD is bad, but the way he got it was even worse (us not putting up much resistance at all)

Cavaliers fans probably celebrating watching Kyrie's abysmal first half  :P

It's funny, playing the Celtics has become this Rondo's version of national tv games. He actually decides to play D versus Boston.

It's definitely not worthwhile to draw conclusions from a single NBA game.

I was about to post this.  I thought he was pretty great at times in the Bulls series too defensively.

Kyrie can go 0-30 and it still won't make IT grow a few inches.

West isn't that good this season. A better team would be up 20 right now the way the C's look.

Thank god he's in the West now, and not some team like DET or IND (teams we *could* play in the first round of the playoffs this year).

We're probably going to start this half on a 10-0 run and forget about this putrid first half.

Seems like that's our mojo this season.
