As the pic on the left suggests, I had a whole different angle planned for tonight's Game Preview. I should have known not to count my delicious Golden Curry cubes before they were hatched. Stupid freaking ankle! Just to be clear: Stephen Curry is not playing tonight. Sad face with tear :,-(

I also had a few thoughts about promising young studs Kyrie Irving and Tristan Thompson, and the moderately resurgent Cavaliers. 6-6 through 12 games, with nine of those on the road, is really not half bad for team ostensibly right at the beginning of a total rebuild. (Insert angry Warrior fan "blow it up!!!" comment here). Alas, I somehow convinced myself that this game was at 7 pm PST, and now I'm stuck at work, on deadline, and running short of time. Probably best to get this up now and let you guys share some thoughts on the Cavs whilst admiring my Photoshop handiwork. (OK, it's not the Dunleavy Wheaties box, but I did my best...) More to come.
