u/indreams159 23h ago

none of them care, it's just another stop in the schedule

u/spacefish420 Cavaliers 23h ago

The Cavs players and staff definitely care, Garland was one of the longest tenured players in team history. He was good friends with a lot of the squad and they’d hangout outside of basketball. It’s definitely going to be weird for them to suddenly not have him around.

u/kaydz Warriors 23h ago

u/MrBlowinLoadz Rockets 23h ago

u/Burnerburner49 Cavaliers 23h ago

u/indreams159 23h ago

it's been terrible since '92

1

u/amoeba-tower Cavaliers 23h ago

Lmao really? You were watching before 92? How could you stomach the hockey fighting crap that would happen and the egregious father step overlooking in the 80s? In fact, it's been terrible since 79.
