  • Great at Having Blind Confidence

    These guys overvalue selected statistics and tend to trust their “gut” take on opposing teams without having actually watched any tape. This results in a real lack of nuance in their takes and predictions. Furthermore, they are completely unable to acknowledge when they have made an error in judgment. In loss, these guys have displayed remarkable flexibility in bending the narrative to match their preconceived notions.

  • Must listen for Cavs fans. Solid on Xs and Os while being approachable for anyone getting into the sport. Hosts have a lot of fun in a way that brings you in. Avoids blind homerism or doomerism. Brings you into their genuine love for the team

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

August Mailbag
Q: Is true usage a zero-sum metric, meaning that increasing Mobley's means lowering someone else's?
Yes, it is functionally zero sum, which means increasing one player's usage impacts others but should ultimately benefit the team's performance.
August Mailbag
Q: Do you think Tristan's push for number 13 in the Rafters is over?
There's a good chance Tristan could return, especially given that the Cavs haven't signed other players yet, thus increasing the chances of him being signed again.
CBA Crash Course with Keith Smith
Q: How does the Halliburton injury impact the Cavs' team building philosophy?
The Cavs need to exercise patience and not rush into significant changes, given their success in the previous season and the opportunity presented by other teams' injuries in the Eastern Conference.

Q: What overarching takeaway do you have from this NBA season?
The Thunder's dominance and the importance of depth in today's NBA are significant takeaways, highlighting how teams must now focus on core group chemistry and versatile rosters.
