“It’s my job to get these guys integrated as fast as possible”.

“We’ve got some younger guys that will practice”. So, we’ve got some catching up to do. LeBron is a free agent after this season, and no one truly knows where he’s going to land. “Also, this is what I’ve been doing in terms of my regimen on how I worked out, ‘” Johnson said. It could be Hood tonight. It could be Clarkson.
Also, don’t be surprised of Korver platoons with Green at the three depending on the matchup. “You know, being out seven months is hard for anybody”. I wish it could’ve been a lot better than it was. After apparently seeing no way to around trading Kyrie Irving and failing at their first try to make a new team, the Cavs are opting for a different model.
First off, they certainly aren’t losing much by way of the players they let go.
“If he makes like this, he’s OK”, Lue joked after the game. They shot 58.1 percent from the field, and hit 57.6 percent from three, shooting 19-33 from beyond the arc, and were 11-12 from the line, good for 91.7 percent. Now we’ll have to see if the changes pay dividends at the defensive end.
According to Pluto, Thomas’ hip injury didn’t help things.
“Toe’s great”, he said. “We’re all professionals, and we were happy with the guys that we had, and we’re going to [be] happy with the guys that we have now”. Hill, 31, is a veteran, but he is serviceable.
The four new faces come in with all sorts of preexisting ties to the Cavs and to one another. “Who cares about all that stuff?'” Hill revealed.
That was about the only thing that went wrong for the new-look Cleveland Cavaliers as they marched into Boston and controlled the Celtics on both sides of the ball, winning 121-99 on Sunday.
The 5-9 Thomas was a second-team All-NBA choice after averaging a career-high 28.9 points per game as a member of the Celtics last season. “I see him all the time”.
Well, it was just the kind of craziness that the Cavs need. Nance Sr.’s No. 22 hangs from the rafters at Quicken Loans Arena. Yikes. Nance will likely wear number 24. I think it’s going to be great for him.
“I’m just ready to play and have fun again”, Thomas told reporters. He earned that. That’s his accomplishment. Whatever he needs me to do, I am willing to do that. It happens, I’m excited. We had a good conversation. This is home. There was a little bit of extra emotion, but not teary. “I have been in the league six more years than he has”.
Although the Cavaliers believe they became more athletic and talented, there is the matter of making everything work, and that will be the challenge ahead and out of the break for the 2018 NBA All-Star Game, which will be played at Staples Center in Los Angeles next weekend.

“That’s JC. That’s Jordan Clarkson, get used to it”, he said. “Come here and compete. In L.A. right now and his future, I want him to get that bounce back, get that spring back”.
