    Thomas has been awefully cocky for someone who Has not played to his potential

    And honestly I disagree, I'm not sure what he means by "tough" but big Dik nene sure did rag doll him around, tucker,capela, mbah, ariza, Paul and improved harden

    I'd say if anything we might be one of the toughest teams

    If he's talking in general like tough to beat then I guess he wasent looking at the score last night

    Also I find it ignorant when he says "all they do is shoot threes" when we're driving in on them with ease plus for a team that holds The record for most made threes in a game and there three point shooting along with warriors is what has made them successful in the past

    Somebody tell this midget to worry about himself and stop picking on his teammates and other teams

    He just salty and the worst part about IT is that he just arrived in Cleveland and he's already blaming his teammates for the team's predicament of late.

    That was cold of Tristan right there. Blocking his own teammate. Shades of Westbrook.

    Thomas has lost a ton of speed and athleticism, he is SLOW and killing the Cavs, he needs to go to the bench and let them start D. Rose until/if IT comes back.

    The question that prompted his response was about the Cavs lacking toughness. His point is that toughness has nothing to do with why we blew them out

    Yeah Rose will fix their effort, defense, and speed issues.

    Even in that context what he said doesn't make sense. If they played tough we wouldn't have blown them out. His answer starts with the presumption that 1) we don't play tough and 2) them playing tougher wouldn't affect the outcome. Those are both false.

    Physical toughness may not have been the biggest issue. Mental toughness however...

    That might be true, but the tone of the response was definitely meant to be a little shade thrown our way.

    IT needs to stop talking. Everyone in Cleveland needs to.

    Didn't need to be tough to blow them out. Says more about their lack of toughness than ours.

    Rockets just shoot 3's, and Thomas just allows them wide open.
