It's reached an embarsassing level now. They have won one game since Thanksgiving. Lost 21 out of 22, with 13 of those being by double digits and only one loss being by less than 5 points. They are not even competitive. Varajao is out for the season too.
So who will they draft with the fourth pick (all the ping pong balls will bounce the wrong way, of course)?

This is bringing back memories of Ted Stepien's Reign Of Error. Names like Mokeski, Whitehead and Kinch ... ending up at the bottom of the standings.
Hard to believe ...

What happened to that point-power forward they had last year? He as pretty good when he wasn't playing against the mighty Celts!

At halftime last night they had 25 points and the starting line up was 3 for 24. These guy get paid a lot to suck.

I wonder if Gilbert's guarantee that they will win a title before LeBron still holds.

They bounced their way the last time they were in that position.....

Given where the franchise is now, and how they never one a championship as the reslut of winning the lottery, I wonder if they would be better off now if they hadn't gotten the #1 pick the last time...
And there is no clear franchise player in the next draft, is there?

Given the state of the franchise at the time, I thought that Austin Carr was a pretty good pick.

So many things had to go right for the Cavs to pull out of the Stepien nose dive. Good leadership, a great coaching hire ... taking chances on a number of players that a lot of folks weren't really excited about - Price, Ehlo, Hot Rod, Harper. There were a lot of folks who were down on Daugherty, too. So much has changed in the league, too.
Dunno. I really stopped following the NBA quite a while ago, but this is not a pretty scenario.

Nope - this appears to be a pretty lame draft. A bunch of college freshman that aren't distinguishing themselves, and 3 good euro big men.

Cavaliers lost at Dallas tonight, 99-96, breaking their own record for consecutive losses in NBA history at 25. UGH.
At least Cleveland is #1 in something. LOL!
This season sucks.
