The Cavaliers Are Stinking Out The Joint
The Cavs got their asses kicked inside-out by the terrible, terrible Pistons last night, 103-80, in Cleveland. They're 18-12 on the season, 5-5 in their last 10 games, fifth in the woeful Eastern Conference. They stink....

Andrew Wiggins Dunking On Him Is A Metaphor For Kevin Love's Season
Andrew Wiggins had one of his best game as a pro tonight against the team that drafted him first and then traded him away, punctuating his 27 points with this thundering tomahawk jam that Kevin Love—who Wiggins was traded for—wanted no part of. Of course, the Timberwolves lost by 20 because they a...

The Cavs' Outlet Passes Are A Damn Good Time
The Cleveland Cavaliers have been in a nice little groove lately, following up that four-game losing streak in which they looked like a sluggish, boring basketball team with a 9-2 run. They kicked the crap out of the Charlotte Hornets last night, and even got around to playing some fun, free-wheelin...

Hannibal Buress's question after Friday night's Cavs-Pelicans game is better than any "Talk about ..." prompt from actual reporters. David Blatt's answer is also solid....

Kyrie Irving Helped To Locker Room After Injuring Leg
Kyrie Irving had to be helped to the locker room in the second quarter of tonight's game against the Thunder, after seemingly suffering a knee or leg injury.

LeBron, Irving, Garnett, Others Wear "I Can't Breathe" T-Shirts
If you don't like serious cultural issues "intruding" into the sports world, it's going to be another tough week for you.

It's So Fun To Watch Kyrie Irving Make People Look Dumb
Last night's nationally televised game between the Cavaliers and the Knicks was pretty stinky. 'Melo couldn't get a bucket, LeBron was still in "Hey, uh, what the hell is going on with LeBron?" mode, and the whole game had the feel of two middling Eastern conference teams blindly flailing at each ...

Hey, Man, LeBron James Would Really Like It If You Would Just Cut
LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers are now 5-7 after getting busted up by the Toronto Raptors on Saturday. LeBron did not have the best time!...

Dion Waiters Goes For Dunk, Gets Destroyed, Is Terrible
Millennial Dion Waiters stinks and is bad; tonight against the Wizards, he tried to dunk on Kevin Seraphin and got stoned—with both hands!—directly to hell. My favorite part is Jon Barry and Mike Breen both initially assuming it must have been a foul, before watching the replay and realizing, yep, ...

David Blatt's Just Trying To Coach Here, Man
LeBron James really wants to do everything, and bless him for trying, but David Blatt's the coach. There are only so many seconds in a timeout....

Cleveland Paper Told Columnist To Write Apology Letter To Dan Gilbert
Cleveland Scene has a well-reported feature out today that attempts to dig into what role Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert's company, Quicken Loans, played in the subprime mortgage collapse of 2007. There's a lot of good stuff in the story, but one particular instance of Dan Gilbert being a thin-skinned ...

LeBron Loses Triple-Double After Being Mistaken For Tristan Thompson
LeBron James thought he had himself a 32-10-12 triple-double in last night's win against the Pelicans, but he did not! As it turns out, he was credited with an assist that he didn't deserve because the official scorer fucked up....

There's No Such Thing As An Open Three When Anthony Davis Is Around
We've been here before, but it's always fun to gawk at Anthony Davis's ability to bend space-time and swallow shots that really have no business getting blocked....

Anthony Bennett Says He Couldn't See Shit Last Year
Former Cavalier Anthony Bennett, who became perhaps the saddest sad-sack No. 1 overall pick we've ever seen last season, is now a member of the Minnesota Timberwolves and is hoping to bounce back from his terrible rookie campaign. Bennett is hoping that one reason his play will improve is because he...

Dion Waiters Refutes Report On Why He Missed The National Anthem
Dion Waiters' national anthem snafu is the weird Cleveland Cavaliers story that won't go away.
