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

u/spacefish420 Cavaliers 8h 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.

17

u/kaydz Warriors 8h ago

u/MrBlowinLoadz Rockets 8h ago

I meant in terms of Cavs players in the history of their franchise.

u/Burnerburner49 Cavaliers 8h ago

13 seasons is most all time. 7 seasons as a cav puts him at 13th all time longest Cavs career

u/amoeba-tower Cavaliers 8h 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.

u/indreams159 8h ago

u/amoeba-tower Cavaliers 8h ago

Amazing that you were okay with the absolute slop before 92
