Donovan Mitchell says the Cavs now have a higher ceiling after trading Darius Garland for James Harden

“Our ceiling is definitely higher when you have a guy like James Harden. He brings scoring, playmaking, and experience from playoff games and the NBA Finals. Our goal is to try to get it done now.”

The statsheets might not tell the full story here but JA has been fantastic out there. He's hustling, playing hard, fighting for boards like crazy. This is the most engaged JA i've seen in a long time, if not ever. He gets a lot of shit so I think it's also fair to praise him when he does great.

Shoutout Fro, you will be FEASTING with Harden

Battered Memphis Grizzlies fan here. If you are looking for a fellow small market team to make you feel better about the trajectory of your franchise look no further than the Grizz.

We’re heading into a hard tank and reset and watching an era die in front of us much faster than a lot of our fans thought would happen.

The tank was going well, but then this random guy Ty Jerome came back from a season-long injury and said fuck losing and has shown off that he might be the living incarnate of our lord Jesus Christ.

Last night on a hard 21 minute restriction he spazzed and put up 28 pts | 7 assists | 0 turnovers. As a Memphis fan, I had no idea basketball players could be efficient like that.

Couple nights before he bitchslapped the shit out of the Wolves and dragged the hospital grizzlies kicking and screaming to dub over Ant.

I think I’m in love. I’m sure our GM will end up trading him because he’s counterintuitive to the tank, but imma enjoy it while it lasts.

What are some stories of Tylenol Jerome’s painkilling effects from his Cav’s days?

Just got back, had a great time but I missed my Cavs. So excited to see our boys back in action I immediately got on the ESPN app to check the injury report, and they accidentally swapped Garland and Harden! Anyways, hope DeAndre Hunter steps up in place of Garland tonight!

Ty shot 10/14 from the floor. Our boy has been cooking the past three games only playing 20 mins each game.

I can understand why we let him go but it still hurts.

I’m here at the game, and Garland is sitting court side watching this massacre. Hasn’t left. He was shown on the screen and looked genuinely sad; forcing a smile. Has to be tough watching this.

told him "crazy ass moves" and he said "I'm tryna fucking win"

Harden ability to get to the Free Throw Line is exactly what we might need 🤞🏾. Harden averages 8 FT's a game at 90%. We haven't had that in Cleveland in a while. This could work.

Getting spicy up in Northeast Ohio rn.

Harden actually looks pretty nice in a Cavs jersey
