Passing Cleveland probably became inevitable when Varajao went down and Andy going down last year was a severely underrated reason for why they were so bad last year. I only wish we had a healthy Varajao to pair with Monroe but the way he keeps getting hurt makes me a little less eager to see him in a Pistons uniform.

Yep, I’m sure about every team in the league has probably called Cleveland about Varejao at some point over the last couple seasons.

Do you think Brandon Knight is trying to make a statement up against Kyrie tonight or what

Definitely think he was looking forward to this game. So far in 1.5 regular season games vs. Irving, Knight is shooting 15-for-19.

9 minutes left in the 4th quarter and we have had 20 more shots than the cavs and are only up 4 points. This seems to be a constant trend.
