    Don't worry, J.R. None of the Cavs know any of Blatt's plays either. You'll fit right in.
    :p

    J.R. Smith goes for 23... three-point shot attempts, setting a NBA record for most three-point shots attempts in a game previously held by... J.R. Smith with 22 attempts.

    Really curious to see if Harden gets double digit FTAs tonight. Longest streak of single digit attempts last season was 6 games. Current streak: 6.

    Takes time to work out new roles when you add players, no matter how good they are. How many wins did you predict for the team this year? I think we are still on a good pace.

    Ok, we have hit a rough patch of games lately, it happens to all teams. We will get better as the year goes on. We have the talent, and we have vets that know how to get it in gear.

    I liked that Ariza didn't settle for the three and went inside!
