  • Justin, don’t forget Andrew Bynum

    Bynum joined the Pacers and completely tanked their vibe and season. Ben Simmons can’t join the team if the vibes aren’t right

Magic Stop the Streak

The Cavs must continue to bounce back from losses, but it's a grueling trip that could affect their performance.

I think they're due for a national TV stinker and I'm going to pick Sunday against Orlando.
