You just got served... by Waiters
The Sporting News previewed the Cavs upcoming season on Thursday. I have to agree with the article’s central point: the season hinges on Dion Waiters and what he can bring to the team. Everyone’s heard plenty about Dion, though. How about some Tristan Thompson? From 3 to 9 feet, Tristan shot 31.7 percent. That’s nearly unheard of for a power forward. Here’s the link.
Dion to the hoop!
The Cavaliers played an intra-squad scrimmage Saturday, pitting Anderson Varejao, Tristan Thompson, Jeremy Pargo, Omri Casspi and C.J. Miles on the Gold team against Kyrie Irving, Dion Waiters, Tyler Zeller, Alonzo Gee and Jon Leuer on the Wine team. The Gold team won 52-44, despite a combined 25 points on 9-22 shooting from Kyrie Irving and Dion Waiters. What does this mean? Absolutely nothing. But it’s nice to see the young guns going at it in practice. Here’s the link.
