Lue's doing okay with the Cavs. But he should have dominated the Pistons. The team was scrappy and hustling last year... they looked bullied against Detroit. Weird rotations like game 1 where they put Kyrie with the entire bench or game 2 where Mozgov played a frustratingly bad full 1st quarter. Poor use of hack-a-Drummond. Way too many stretches of offensive sets with 5 guys standing around. Still too much of a tendency to resort to iso's when they get a big lead. The Pistons were very well-coached and it showed. I sure hope the Cavs can pull it off but I'm a little concerned. |

guess it depends on what you mean by pull it off? I still think they win the east but beating the Spurs or GSW will be hard to do. I hope they do it but that's a tough row to hoe. |

Watched DeMarcus Cousins lately? Karl Anthony Towns? Houston only went .500 this season and that was only because they have a top 5 player in the NBA in James Harden (when he bothers to care). Dwight Howard himself is a non-factor on the court these days and hasn't given a shit about winning since he left Orlando in 2012. He's done as a significant player and I wouldn't want any part of him if I was a NBA team.

Anthony Davis can barely do that. At least Howard, in his prime, in Orlando, took a team of 3 point shooters to the finals. I highly doubt Cousins or Davis ever make the finals on their crap teams. |

Boogie has some weird personality issues and might end up never getting his career out of 3rd gear, but that's not because he can't ball. The NBA is about to hit a Renaissance of elite big men that the league hasn't seen since Ewing, David Robinson, Barkley, and Olajuwon |
