Isaiah Thomas is in God mode again. He put 41 points to Pistons basket, 24 in last quarter. He saved that win for Celtics, otherwise Pistons could take the game at away. Boston is 30-18 with that win, climbing up to 2nd spot. It's their 4th consecutive win. They passed Raptors and there's only 2 win difference with East leader Cavs. It's getting heated more and more.
Celtics in on the momentum now and thanks for Isaiah Thomas. They really seeing now the result of the rebuilding progress for years and just need some few more tweaks.
The Cavs are most definitely unpredictable right now, I think missing both JR and Kevin Love is just too much for the Cavs this year with their current roster really. Frustration is in the air as you can see both Irving and Lebron trying to do what they can but it's not enough. Hopefully GM Griffin can bring a couple of additions to the roster as he usually does year after year, especially a PG and a PF/C.
They don't have to big names (actually they can't do it unless trading one of the big 3) but they need to have decent experience and be good role players.
Cleveland Cavaliers are not the usual Cavaliers team Im seeing. Im a fan of Dallas Mavericks and Im happy with their recent win against the Cavs but this team are not the monster Cavs I have seen. Im expecting a struggle road for my fave team to beat the Cavaliers but it's not what is happen.
Im expecting they will soon back in shape as I though it already came back after their wake up win against the Nets and OKC.
