They gave up 41 points in the 3rd quarter. To the Magic.And now this: Cavs have blown a 16 point halftime lead, enter the 4th trailing the Magic by 3.
IT4 had 11 points in 1st quarter. He still has 11.
And have been outscored 14-3 with 5 minutes left in the 4th.They gave up 41 points in the 3rd quarter. To the Magic.
Buyout is possible. He cannot return to Boston *until after the season is over*.The possibility of an IT4 buyout and return has grown incrementally more likely.
I always thought that rule applied to trades only, but it makes sense. I recall a number of under-the-table agreements involving salary ballast buyout-and-return.Buyout is possible. He cannot return to Boston *until after the season is over*.
I wouldn’t even want him even if we could. Fork sticking out that dude’s back is bigger than he is.Buyout is possible. He cannot return to Boston *until after the season is over*.
Let’s keep the Fultz stuff in the other thread, please.This is both sad and amusing at the same time...

Sixth man? Would he even get minutes over Larkin once he returns from his knee?IT4's ego is way too big to be a sixth man for the Celtics and sit on the bench at the end of the games.
I don't hate Shane Larkin but I might prefer a cardboard cutout of IT4 over him off the bench. Steph Curry saw Larkin check in a few weeks ago and started drooling all over the court.Sixth man? Would he even get minutes over Larkin once he returns from his knee?
I feel bad for his teammates who get publicly called out by him every single night when he's as big if not a bigger problem than any of them. Good god put a sock in it you washed up midget!I feel really bad for IT. He went from the man in Boston to this dumpster fire. He looks cooked but the situation sucks.
21 posts up man...Lue is taking the Colts head coaching job
This. He has been back for a few weeks and now he is getting an inordinate amount of heat for a badly put together roster and a team with bad team chemistry .I feel really bad for IT. He went from the man in Boston to this dumpster fire. He looks cooked but the situation sucks.
see POST #159This is both sad and amusing at the same time...
Is it called short arming the shot regardless of whether or not he makes it?see POST #159
I can't decide which is the funniest part of that video (SoSH Poll material)
1. IT clanking the corner 3
2. the ball coming down hard and hitting Tristan's hands
3. Lebron walking the other way while the Magic break up the court
4. or IT also heading wrong way as the Magic break
Cue the music...
Cleveland without Isaiah on the floor:This. He has been back for a few weeks and now he is getting an inordinate amount of heat for a badly put together roster and a team with bad team chemistry .
HRB is right in that IT should not be talking but he is not to blame for the bulk of the Cavs woes. It starts and ends with LeBron James.
Nobody denies he is horrible on defense. He was never good and he is still hobbled. But he is far from the only reason the Cavs are struggling.Cleveland without Isaiah on the floor:
Off: 113.9
Def: 111.4
Cleveland WITH Isaiah on the floor:
Off: 104.2
Def: 119.5
Let's knock it off about Isaiah not being a LARGE part of the problem. Those numbers pass the eye test as well.
They had won 18 of 19 games up until a week before Isaiah returned. In his 13 games I don't feel it is debatable that he has been THE worst defender in the league. Offensively, he's been just as bad with an eFG of 41%......and that is just as big of a problem for the Cavs. I stand by my position that he shouldn't be playing in NBA games right now any more than Markelle Fultz.Nobody denies he is horrible on defense. He was never good and he is still hobbled. But he is far from the only reason the Cavs are struggling.
LeBron holding them hostage for next season is a huge issue for the squad too. It affects everything from chemistry to how far Altman can go to bring in help.
And even if they can bring in both Hill and Jordan, it won't fix the Cavs porous defense.
I do too. He’s not doing himself any favors with his play or his mouth, I agree... but I guess I just don’t really expect people to have a good attitude about being expelled from paradise and hurled into the Pit of Despair.I feel really bad for IT. He went from the man in Boston to this dumpster fire. He looks cooked but the situation sucks.
Back up the Tonka truck ...This is both sad and amusing at the same time...
