Wonder who Georges is rooting for in this series?

Team you played with and helped get number 1 seed for, that eventually traded you away vs your alumni road dog who loves to play villain just as much as you?

Hopefully gets mentioned on the local news.
LOL, the only thing being mentioned on central and eastern Iowa news tonight, is the return of CC to CHA for a exhibition game.
I'm guessing it will be in the main part, sports and maybe the weather "luckily the weather was nice today so it was easy travel to Iowa City to see the queen of Iowa" or "on a exceptionally nice day thousands packed CHA to see the greatest BB player ever to play the game"

He’s probably rooting for his friends on the Cavs, Tyrese, and good basketball.

Niang was also drafted by the Pacers.

I find it interesting how Tyrese was a media darling last year but the national media is much more subdued talking about him this year. I am a long time Pacers fan, he IS the reason all these pieces work. The trade for Tyrese saved the Pacers from mediocrity. Then they did a great job finding the right guys to play with him. Guys who love the game and have bought into the unselfish way Tyrese plays.

This is fun. Tyrese is playing amazing. Definitely one of the stories of the playoffs so far.

I really regret not getting Hali that full 2nd year.

ISU was generally bad even with him so they probably lose like 17 games instead of 20.

Would have been the one bright spot I suppose.

People REALLY overreacted to him having a slow start this year.

He's been same fantastic player since mid season he was last year.

The Olympic thing set the stage for it. He handled it well but it put the idea he was overrated in everyones mind.

Yeah, I heard them saying he spent the whole summer rehabbing from injuries and he never really got to start playing again until this season started.
