#Pargonanza, #Pargosanity, #Pargomania, or whatever else you want to call it. Jeremy Pargo took over this game and Twitter a la Jeremy Lin or Lester Hudson as the Cavaliers fended off a few late Philadelphia rallies for their third win of the season, 92-83.
Pargo scored 28, Dion Waiters had 16, Alonzo Gee added 14 and C.J. Miles poured in 13, as the four combined to shoot 13-for-23 from three-point range — all of the team’s attempts — in the surprising victory. Anderson Varejao had a quietly stellar performance as well, posting 10 points and 19 rebounds, with Cleveland improving to 1-0 without Kyrie Irving in the 2012-13 season. Who saw this coming??

Without Kyrie Irving, the Cavaliers will have to well, theres no easy answer that to that one. Truth is, without Irving, we have no idea what the Cavs can do.
With Irving, they won just two of their first 10 games. Some of that has to do with their brutal schedule, in which the Cavs played just three home games (and even that was a followed by a game the next night...
Cavaliers taking caution with Kyrie
INDEPENDENCE, Ohio -- Kyrie Irving has a broken finger, but could probably play. Like everyone else in the NBA, he really wants to play.
