They don't seem that cavalier to me.
What's up with the Cavaliers?
From Conrad Kaczmarek of Fear The Sword:
Alright, so what's up with the Cavaliers? Well first things first, it's pretty important to establish that Kyrie Irving is literally the best player on the team. I'm not sure who that says more about, him or his supporting cast. The dude is 19 years old and has played in 16 NBA games. He's the best offensive weap...hold up, I just thought of something. This should be a pretty good game because the Knicks are all kinds of hilarious right now and the Cavs are pretty hot and cold. However, this game could go in 7 overtimes and have 5 different buzzer beaters and I would not be satisfied unless we get a Luke Harangody-Josh Harrelson matchup. Perhaps the two goofiest guys in the league and that would be completely fitting for the Knicks season if Harangody had the game of his career tonight, right?
Right, although Conrad's going to very disappointed to learn that Josh just had wrist surgery and is out for six weeks. That only bodes better for Harangody, though.
Meet the new Cavaliers!
Omri Casspi- Omri discovered that Cleveland's version of "falafel" is actually just ground-up corn flakes, cumin, and butter packed into puck-shaped patties. He finds the dish inauthentic, yet surprisingly tasty.
Kyrie Irving- After much groveling, Kyrie was given his very own whistle by coach Byron Scott and is permitted to keep it with him during practice as long as he does not blow it while any of the coaches are talking.
Mychel Thompson- Mychel regularly mocks Tristan Thompson behind his back for not being named "Trystan".
Tristan Thompson- Tristan, meanwhile, is convinced that Mychel is his own offspring and budded from his torso while he was sleeping last month.

Stranger: As a fellow tall brother.
Stranger: Advice a fellow tall brother.
Stranger: What to do.
You: well, are you in a public place?
You: does it need to be concealed?

You: of course
Stranger: You.
Stranger: Are awesome.
You: thanks! you seem like a pretty splendid individual yourself.
Stranger: Marvelous!
Stranger: Now, ask me something.
Stranger: Or I shall treat you like an otter.
You: the otter thing kind of sounds inviting
You: i'm curious to find out how you treat otters
You: if i encountered an otter, i'd feed it fishes and probably make it rebound my jumpers for me
You: so if we're in agreement on that, then i think i'll take the otter option
Stranger: I don't feed otters fish.
Stranger: I feed otters potatoes.
You: oh
You: also a pretty attractive option
Stranger: AND.
Stranger: If you're a good otter.
Stranger: You get gravey too!
You: i imagine that i'd make a pretty good otter
Stranger: I'll cook you a fucking steak if you have an otter costume, I'm dead serious.
You: boobie the otter
You: i don't, i'm afraid, but i am wealthy enough to procure that pretty quickly
You: i could probably have it made out of real otter
Stranger: Stop showing off your boobies.
You: sorry
You: how'd you know that I invented my own gelatinous unit of currency called "the boobie"?
Stranger: No no no.
Stranger: They're called "Boobies"
Stranger: And each woman comes equipped with 2.
You: right, i know about those
You: i have a notoriously buxom wife
Stranger: So why aren't you fucking the brains out of your notoriously buxom wife?
Stranger: Instead, you're here.
Stranger: Talking to a guy
Stranger: That wants to feed you potatoes and gravey.
You: well, i have to be at work pretty soon
Stranger: You could still go for a round with her if you're quick.
Stranger: Just saying.
You: yeah
You: although some people recommend abstinence before athletic activity
You: sex saps one's competitive fire, they say
You: not that i have much in the first place. i kind of just hang out and wear a headband
Stranger: Quite.
Stranger: Daniel? Danny boy?
You: i only respond to Boobie
Stranger: Am I weird?

Jared Jeffries's Joke Junction!
Q: Why was six afraid of seven?
A: Well, this was going to have to do with the guys on the Cavaliers that have those numbers, but Manny Harris wore 6 and doesn't play for them anymore and 7 is retired for somebody called "Bingo Smith", and I see no reason for Harris to be afraid of that guy. He's not dead or anything, so it's not like he's a ghost. Anyway, the number 8 kind of sounds like "ate" and that's Christian Eyenga's number. Semih Erden wears 9. If Bingo Smith were to somehow eat Semih Erden by way of Christian Eyenga, that would be pretty scary for Harris if he was still on the team. I can't really picture it though. My tooth kind of hurts.
And now you're prepared for Knicks-Cavs!
