    Do you feel sorry for the Cavs and their fans and want them to win, or do you take pleasure in witnessing an historically embarrassing streak and wish for it to continue?

    Just curious.

    They lose, get an amazing draft pick, and then are great, have the guy eff them over and start the cycle all over again!

    I want them to win, it's fun when a team loses in gut wrenching fashion but their games aren't even that fun to watch minus a few here or there.

    I LMFAO at all the people that thought James actually had GOOD SUPPORTING CAST on that team. The more they lose, the more completely clueless those people look.

    It's funny, you don't see those people talking about it much anymore...they've run off with their tails between their legs like a bunch of whipped dogs...pathetic.

    Everyone rooted against the Lions a couple years ago but the difference is the circumstance. The way they had the rug pulled out is not something earned that you can honorably laugh at. Punks love this sort of situation. Who did the Cavs ever screw over besides the other teams tanking in '03?

    I couldn't care less about those fools. Sympathy? HAHAHA. This is single-handedly the worst team in NBA history. I hope they lose every single game. I also wish they would go 0-82 next season. It might not happen, because they're eventually going to get lucky... but hey; one can only hope.

    Ya, I agree. I kind of wish they'd lost that game vs. New York so they'd be at 37 losses in a row. Not because I don't like the Cavs - they're actually one of my favorite teams now that Lebron is - but just because I think watching the losing streak is fun. I hope for the Cavs to get the number one pick and are killer next year...I actually take the statement back about wishing they'd lost to New York. That's the one team I'd allow them to lose to :cool: . And they're playing NY again in a a couple of weeks. It'd be hilarious if they continued their losing streak until then only to beat NY.

    To be fair, they are missing two of their main guys right now. Subtract the two best players off any team and they will sink, now subtract them off a crappy team and this happens. Not saying they had a good supporting cast to begin with but considering the 8th seed in the East is 22-28, they MIGHT have been on the border of the playoff picture had Andy not gotten hurt and Mo hadn't sucked/gotten hurt.

    No opinion either way since they broke 0-26. Watching them lose to the Pistons was enough for me. Now I wouldn't mind if they won a game to get the monkey off their back.

    The point of them losing LeBron, Gilbert popping off and then this incredible failure the next year has been made. The one and only thing that makes me want to see them keep losing is the words COMPLETE IDIOT stamped on Dan Gilbert's forehead grows bigger each day.

    The Cavs were missing a lot of folks last year too, but they were still #1 in the East. Jamison missed 52 games, Shaq missed 29 games, Mo "the great All-star" Williams missed 13 games, Gibson missed 26 games, and Lebron's mom's squeeze (West) missed 22 games...it happens, Lebron only missing 6 games is what kept that team great and at the top of that conference. Please don't try to make excuses for why this team is horrible...they're pretty much the same team minus Lebron...that's it.

    No excuses, they are BAD... historically bad. All I am saying is that with Andy and Mo healthy and productive they aren't THIS bad and in a WEAK East that's something.

    Yes and No.

    I want them to keep losing until they face the Wizards.

    Also, I want to see history in the making. Even if it is 'epic losing streak' history. Witnessing a 30+ losing streak is one of those things that makes you feel bad for the team but doesn't stop you from smiling at the fact that you were there.

    However, if they beat the Wiz or win after that, I would be okay.

    I just hope they don't beat the rockets.

    If that happens fire everyone.

    I'm rooting for them to at least lose until Sunday, when they are home for the possibly 0-25 on the road Wizards. . . . . SOMETHINGS gotta give

    I am pretty sure every team dreads playing them right now. Nobody wants to be the team that breaks the streak.

    We play the Cavs in 4 games for them. Clippers-lose. Wizards-hopefully win! than Lakers. I really do not want to be the team that loses to them. That would be horrible. I thought about that about a week or two ago and thought for sure they would win by the time they played the rockets. Now its coming up. I wish I could say I trust our team to get the win easily but any given night we can beat anyone and anyone can be us.
