I may be being overdramatic here, but has anyone else found it difficult to sit through Cavs games over the last couple of weeks? Today, we were just severely outplayed and outpaced - but it feels like every game is a struggle and the team constantly seems mentally unprepared, forcing the same mistakes game-in-game-out.
Even during games we've won, they haven't felt enjoyable as much as they've felt like a relief.
I think part of that reason is because of the expectations.
When you expect to be great and you are not, it makes people crazy.
Plus the fact that GS is just blwoing people away in most games, adds to the sense of we suck.
The Cav's point differential is now 5.5 per game.
Taht would have been good for 4th last season in the NBA.
The Cav's were 4.4 for last year, so they actually are better than they were last year.
Granted 18 games isn't a huge sample size, yet.
I think some people are really over reacting.
But it is agonizing to watch some of the play to date, I get that becasue i have expectations too.
Are there concerns? Hell yes.
Moz needs to get back to what he was last year.
Shump and Kyrie have to come back strong, and we have to stay relatively healthy to have a chance.
Hang in there and remember 2 years ago when there wasn't even this chance to be great.
