didnt know the refs we're forcing us to brick FTs

I usually agree with ref bashing but not tonight. They been decent.

I have no confidence in this team hitting a game-tying three. Let's hope I'm proven wrong.

It's not that. It's when you can see how much better your team is than the other but they keep making the same mistake over and over and over again. It's not just tonight. We've let games against New York, Philadelphia, Milwaukee and Detroit take us down to the wire.

There's nothing wrong with what you're saying. I get it.

Just hard for me to get riled up or feign concern. It's November. And we're still down our 2nd best player and our best perimeter defender.

It'd be nice if things were more fine tuned right now. Not sure if it's an effort thing, focus thing, missing talent thing, or whatever. Just don't think it means much in terms of March, April, and May.

Not sure where the drama is...

Every time someone says there are major concerns with the way the team is playing, they get shouted down.

The drama is in acting like it's freakout time, and no, I didn't say you were doing that so I'll preempt that response.

It's November. Does anyone think the Warriors are really going to do what they're doing all season long? No. The season has ebbs and flows. It just started. The Cavs aren't playing that well and need to address some things, so be it. I guess I don't even need to mention the whole injury thing.

I know, I Know, game threads and all that. Just making a statement.

 

[Rich]

Out rebounded by 7 and by 8 on the offensive boards. Shot 60% from the line again. Another well deserved loss.

 

[godfather]

We were up 4 when he first did it. Could have made them earn a basket and waste time in the process, and if not get a stop and push it up to 6.

But I like the concept of trying to take Drummond out of the game by his weakness. But it did back fire.

But you don't do it TIED, with 2:07 left. You're expecting him to miss both if you do foul him. I mean, he's not a 10 percent shooter. All he needs is one.

Just a terrible decision.

The benefit of the Cavs losing is that it will quiet down those who keep saying there is nothing to be worried about.

Many of us have said otherwise; now being joined by LeBron James himself who seems to think the same thing.

There is a problem with this team, our record and injuries notwithstanding.

It is better to lose now, and address these issues, than to continue winning against shit teams with a weak SoS all while kidding ourselves that we're playing good basketball.

Did you expect a 82-0 season?

Teams lose. Nothing to be really worried about, IMO.

 

[letgocavs]

I don't see a problem with the Moz shot. I mean seriously no one wanted to shoot and it wasn't that bad a shot
