I clicked on this Fred Macleod interview with Tristan Thompson assuming it would be boring: TT would talk about working on his jumper in the offseason, maybe mention something about how great Dion Waiters is going to be, and zzzzzzzzzzz. To my surprise, TT joked around a bit, and it turns out he’s kind of an engaging person. Also, he put on 10-to-15 pounds in the offseason, which is great news. Now if only he can start shooting the basketball like a person who has hands and arms and the requisite motor skills to control them.
This is a very likable team. Kyrie and TT are good kids. Not sure what that means for W-Ls, but at least they aren’t douchebags (like the Heat).
Bringing out the “gun show”! That’s good, they need TT to play strong this year.
I think the need for TT to have a jumper this season is over-stated. I can think of countless big men, including many HOF’s who had no real jump shot. A jump hook is far, far more vital and useful…
if the cavs play stellar defense and rebound hard and block shots and watch turnovers they can get to the championship lets go cavs
and make easy buckets plus boobie hits 3s and dont make bad trads and andy be andy maybe add allen iverson for legend leadership wow
dont trade andy
In one fell swoop, rlj became my favorite part of this blog
I have been humbled…thank you, rlj…
Nice to see that they seem like good friends in general, not just teammates. Hopefully that help chemestry and communication which can translate to wins.
I love Tristan. He is such a jokester. He can also sing!! He is doing a Cavs team interview soon and it will be downloaded soon. I’m sure it’ll be good.
