Playing the cavs tough right now. Book and Goodwin playing well. Goodwin not shooting well, but getting to the hoop and not turning it over.

The Snus are losing by 27. What is there to talk about?

I checked the score a few times on espn.com, but I'm not watching this shit show unless they give me a reason to watch. Why is Tucker still playing 36+ minutes? Maybe they were showcasing him and Markieff for a trade to the Cavs? They both put up decent numbers tonight. Hmm... Get 'er done, McDo!

It was a game until the Cavs went on a big run in the 3rd.

The run started at the end of the second and continued into the third.
It was a great first half. The Suns and Cavs were neck and neck most of the way. The Cavs were clearly upset by the play of the Suns in the first half. Booker with a hard foul on Lebron and Lebron giving him the stare down. The Cavs obviously came out more focussed in the second half and Archie decided to put on a turnover clinic for the children of Cleveland.

I love this site. You can keep hitting the Sim Lottery button over and over simulating the lottery based on the standings right now. We seem to hit #5 a lot and no lower than 6th but, occasionally #1.

Archie's not comfortable with a ton of ball pressure. He fell apart in the 3rd. I think he threw 3 jump passes in a row - all stolen. Coach benched him until garbage time after that.
Archie, TJ, Booker, Len - I'd love to see how all these guys would look playing next to a real pass-first PG. Imagine how good someone with Nash's mindset would make them look.

Cory Jefferson should be getting minutes over Markieff.

We're all frosting and no cake.

I was wondering that as well.

Vintage Nash would make Archie look a lot like Barbosa. He has the speed and lack of fear; he just needs to get that corner 3 down.
He would make Len look like an all-star. He would spoon feed him high passes (to his hands!) for easy dunks. The two man game would look good too if he can keep hitting that 15-17 footer at 50%.
TJ would basically be Marion 2.0 on offense.
Booker would be averaging over 20 on even higher percentages.
And the sad thing is that you don't need vintage Nash for that. Really any true pass-first PG that can hit an outside shot and not pick up his dribble/jump to pass could do that for these guys.

McDonough said on Burns and Gambo yesterday that we're looking at about the 5 spot as of right now.

We're not looking "at about" - we're *at* #5. Tied with Minnesota at 14-33, but with a better division record.....

Division record is irrelevant for the lottery. Ties are broken randomly.
