On top of losing 24 straight games this season, there is no more Lebron James and every time I see a video shot a Cavs home game it looks sold out. Why is the building always filled up for every home game for a 8-53 team with no star?

It's not fun watching your favorite team lose but at least the Cavaliers fans stick with their team when they win or lose. It just shows they have many real fans in Cleveland. Some teams don't have star players but alot of fans still go to the games to support their team.

very well put.
houston (where i live) is full of what i call fair weather fans. nobody likes a losing team but people should continue to support them. dont support your team and you could lose them, ask the hornets.

man i dont get it, what is the OPs problem with the cavs in general?

Maybe because they like basketball? did that ever come to your mind? Why does it matter to you anyway?

It is really weird indeed. Then again the OP is an oddball.

I don't have a problem with the cavs but I was just stunned with the economy so shaky and the unemployment rate so high, why is the stadium always filled up for a losing team. I'm just surprised people are still burning gas, paying for parking, and buying food to come out and see a team who has lost 24 games in a row.

The 76ers are doing very well right now and is a 7th seed in the east, and their stadium is NEVER SOLD OUT

76ers are doing well? They are 23-26? That's not good. It's not cavs bad but it shows how bad the east is.

I see you haven't being paying attention to the 76ers. That record is VERY GOOD considering that at one time they were 5-14. Which means they are 23-12 in their last 35 games.


Fun Fact: I attended the 11/5/10 game between the 76ers and Cavs and the Cavs won 123-116.

once again i point out the weakness of the eastern conference. have you seen the 76ers schedule? you realize they play the cavs 3-4 times, the wiz 3-4 times, toronto 3-4 times..........

your right i dont watch much philly games, but they are not a good team and they are from way up north so what would be the point?

actually it means they have gone 18-12 not 23-12. they only have 23 wins total.

also they have had the 7th easiest strength of schedule in the league at .487 win% and their last 25% of the season (about 12 games) has been even lower at .460 win%.
