Comments From the Other Side - Cavs 1/31

Via Celtics Life  |  February 01, 2012

The Cavs fans aren't a very chatty bunch compared to others and I think criticize their own players as much as they do the other team but they definitely don't like the Celtics. They are even willing to derail their tanking to beat them. I'd love to have Varejao. though, he...
