If we can get within 10 by the 6 minute mark. team can still win this

 

[Sebastian]

Just shut up Dion.

 

[SalvadoranCavsfan]

If Dion got a technical for every time he yelled "And One!" he'd never last two minutes in a game before being ejected.

A TECH FOR YELLING AND-1? RIDICULOUS.

 

[Kizzle]

WHAT THE FUCK!! WE CANT DO SHIT OUT HERE.

We can't even score without giving up points lol

 

[Sebastian]

Why, yes, why don't we also go into the penalty so we can't play aggressive defense. Nice. Special.

 

[Simmy]

This might be a weird question but how many times has Kevin Love actually jumped to contest a shot?

He just doesn't do it. Ever.

Whenever he has no opportunity to potentially grab a rebound. Otherwise, he just stands around, hoping for his man to miss so that he can swallow up the board.

This team is no where near as good LeBron's first year Miami team. Good teams don't get blown at home, again, and stand by and watch it happen. Hapless and disinterested. Rest the starters and let them absorb a lesson.

That was a very good defensive team and the best Miami rebounding team of the four.

We have very few athletes, no interior D, and zero depth. You look around the league and see teams around the league that aren't very good but hey have players 7-10 that would get burn with us. And they all seem to have more athletes than we.

 

[crowned1]

Haha, what a joke

 

[red.]

This game is over.

 

[Man Called X]

What a shitshow.

 

[Kizzle]

If we were another team id have to imagine the Hawks wouldn't have played this hard

 

[Rich]

Yelling And-1 down 20 and getting a technical. If that play just isn't a microcosm of his career....

 

[Soar]

Well that was fun.

We will be squarely in the bottom 10 of defensive efficiency after this game. I mean, I've been saying you can win a title with a mediocre defense for a while, you just have to play around it. But you can't do it with a bottom 10 defense......

Not only that but when you have a team like Atlanta that plays defense it throws us off our offensive game.
