[Saint Cy of JFC]

Cavs look absolutely lifeless. They probably need to make a big deal to shake things up... but Garland and Allen's value must be pretty rough right now.

Ja/DG swap and Memphis throws in two Orlando picks

Collier's 3P% is up almost 10 percentage points from last year.

Folks are dreaming about the Cavs falling in the lottery... except they won't. The Cavs are consistently losing a half of their games, but so is everybody else in the East. They will be sitting in this 5-8 range forever.

why didn't Clayton play? did Ace take all his minutes?

This season is another wasted season. What exactly is the point of trying to get to the 10 seed? Sell the team to someone with some sense.

If that's the plan, then why haven't they made moves to win? This team is on pace to lose the draft pick. So the team won't be getting better via the draft.
The Jazz have wasted 3 straight years with trying to win with a bad roster and its just delaying the rebuild. If they don't want to use the draft to get better and don't make trades to get better players what is the end game?
Do they want to be a fringe playoff team? Cause they blew up a team that was already better then that to waste 3 straight years.
