Live Thread: Cavs vs. Knicks (#EverythingsNotAwesome)

Everything’s not awesome
Everything’s not cool
I am so depressed
Everything’s not awesome
Whoa, I think I finally get Radiohead
(Bro, you should check out Elliott Smith)

What’s the point
There’s no hope
Awesomeness was a pipe dream
(Aye, my spirits be at the bottom of the sea)

Love’s not real
I just want to eat carbs
Pass the ice cream
(I’m not a thing you can just use to fill emotional voids with)

Stop. Everyone okay, just… ugh, listen…

Everything’s not awesome
But that doesn’t mean that it’s hopeless and bleak
Everything’s not awesome
But in my heart I believe

We can make things better
If we stick together
Side by side you and I
We will build it together
(Build it together, together forever)

This song’s gonna get stuck inside your…
This song’s gonna get stuck inside your…
This song’s gonna get stuck inside your…

Heart

Everything’s not awesome
Things can’t be awesome all of the time
It’s unrealistic expectation
But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try

To make everything awesome
In a less idealistic kind of way…

These are most of the lyrics from the main song in the new Lego Movie 2: The Second Part. I’ll be honest, the movie wasn’t awesome. But, it did get me thinking about the Cavs this season. Sure, everything’s not awesome like it used to be, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be again. First though, the Cavs have to endure another tank battle with the New York Knicks for the opportunity to draft Zion Williamson this summer… and get on the road to being awesome again.

Kevin Love should be there, even if Cedi Osman and Tristan Thompson are still out. Maybe even the nomadic Sauce Castillo will make things a little more awesome with an appearance.

Prediction: The Knicks, who are trying to be a little less awesome than the Cavs these days in the race for the number one draft position, tank just a little harder as Cleveland wins 98-88.

Catch all the action… starting right now on FSO, and don’t forget to chime in your awesome thoughts below…
