Episode 20: Long December (Reason to believe?)

The boys discuss the up and down season to this point, at 13-11 Matty tries to talk Eric back off the ledge with his "just make the playoffs" expectations. Is JB Bickerstaff the coach that can elevate this team or simply a product of the failed John Beilein "era"? The In-Season Tournament was a success and why is everyone Fat-Shaming Zion Williamson?

Episode 19: Well that's awkward.

The boys discuss the weird situation(s) that coaches were in because of the NBA's in-season tournament on the final night of Group Play. Would Billy Donovan have done the same thing as Joe Mazzulla if his Bulls were in the same situation? Despite not making the quarterfinals of the NBA Cup, the Cavaliers are moving along nicely as November comes to an end. Wine and Gold are in for a busy December, but will it be a long one? Eric and Matty also discuss why Greg Popovich feels sorry for what happened to Kawhi Leonard in San Antonio.

Episode 18: Go(bert) to sleep!

The boys get right into the Draymond Green/Rudy Gobert incident where Green put Gobert into a WWF sleeper hold. Did Draymond intentionally get ejected or was he really trying to protect Klay Thompson? Should there be any concern over the start to Evan Mobley's season? Should JB Bickerstaff FORCE the ball to Mobley more often? Also, Eric was totally wrong about Anthony Davis and he could very well be DPoY,

Episode 17: Armed and fully operational

The guys got right into a discussion about NBA television rights and how the Cavaliers should take a page out of the Jazz playbook and move AWAY from the RSN model...but would Dan Gilbert ever say "No" to basically free money? On the court the Cavs are 1-1 with the starting 5 that was promised in the offseason...can anything really be learned so early into the season? Also, is the In-Season tournament something that anyone needs?

Episode 16: Panic! At the Fieldhouse

The boys are back and dive right in to the Cavaliers 1-3 start! How should expectations have been managed going INTO the '23-'24 season? Can the fanbase fall back on "just wait until we're healthy!" or is there legitimacy in early-season panic? Have the additions to this roster delivered on their promise to help on the perimeter? What about Evan Mobley? Also, would Tyronn Lue actually consider starting James Harden with the Clippers?
