This should be a very tough game. Cleveland is having a bit of a down year; they're only 18-16 and 8th in the East after an incredible season last year. But I still think they're a very talented team not to be taken lightly. Mitchell seems to always score 40+ on us for some reason. And they're big, strong, and athletic; we've had trouble against teams like that in the recent past. This might be a bad Oso game. Hopefully Ott has the inside info and can help us take them down.

I'd consider Allen tradable at this point. It's kind of pathetic how many games he's missed. He can shoot the hell out of the ball but he's probably one of the weakest defenders and all of these missed games have given others an opportunity and they've stepped up big time.

I don't think it'll be easy but I think we match up pretty well. Williams should be able to muscle Allen a bit and Mobley won't overpower guys like Brooks or Royce. Containing Mitchell and Garland will be a challenge but we should have the bodies to throw at them. Just can't lose track of guys like Tyson and Wade while worrying about the others.

Going to be a tough game today. Suns have to rebound the ball and must play big to come out on top and win.

Unfortunately Grayson's trade value is probably low right now partly due to the injuries. We could have tried to trade him earlier in the season when he was scorching hot. I think when it comes to the Suns current rotation of guards and swings, Grayson Allen is probably the one we should trade. I was previously thinking that we should trade Royce O'Neale, but I think he's more useful to us once Jalen Green gets back. Green is going to eat heavily into Allen's minutes.

Cavs rolling now with some 3s. Suns out of sorts, CG can''t hang on the perimeter defensively.

Royce has been awful.
