Round 1 Game 6 | Cavs @ Pacers | April 27, 2018 | 8:00 EST

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
God damn.. worked all day long and couldn’t even check the score I was so damn busy.. then I almost thought it was a fucking nightmare when I looked up the score hoping for a closeout win.. like holy shit wtf happened guys? I’m guessing Indy is heading to game 7 with serious momentum? Should we be worried here? Cuz I definitely am here..
 
Get ready for Philly and Indiana, in the ECF.
I’m not quite sure the Pacers can beat the Raps ? Raps have a little more versatility and depth. They can get points in bunches from multiple players whereas the Cavs cannot..

Pacers would have to alter their defense...
 
Toronto licking their chops hoping for the Cavs

Not sure about that. Nobody wants to play LeBron, especially DeRozan and Lowry. LeBron is constantly stealing their souls. Indiana isn't scared of us, especially those tough nosed guys like Stephenson, Turner, and Booker.

If we find a way to win Game 7, I think you'll see us have a much easier time with Toronto than we did with Indy. Probably will win that series in five, maybe six games.

I said it at the beginning of the postseason, but Indiana and Philly are far and away our worst matchups.
 
I have a lot to type so if you read it all, thanks. A lot will not make sense and I want to rant/ramble at 4:30 am, so here goes...

I cannot believe this team put forth that much of a lack of effort. By their recent track record, I should believe it but my heart wouldn't allow it. They started off strong, they started out hustling and then it was vanished. Sure, I am mad they lost the game but I am more mad at the way they lost if that makes any sense.

All series long, they touted their defense and said they just needed to get it going offensively. Well, in arguably, the biggest game of the season neither showed up. I really can't fathom how professional athletes can train their entire lives for these moments and then, from the outside looking in, look like they don't give a damn. I was never one to say the Pacers are the better team, and I still don't believe that but if fucking Love isn't doing it and it's all Bron, then what they fuck are they paying the other 14 guys for? Seriously? Did you know the one spot has a total of 8 assists and 8 turnovers for the entire series? How the fuck does that happen? What happened to the defensive scheme against Victor? Because he decides to go faster you just abandon it? Why the fuck was Victor still in the game when it was over? To get his triple-double? I was praying Lue would take offense to that and let Zizic break his leg.

Winning game 7 isn't a given, that's a fucking shame. I can't, realistically, see the role players completely stepping up when they haven't at all this series. I still think the Cavs win game 7 but then it pains me the next day when they get blown out by Toronto in fucking Canada with their beautiful gravy fries. Fuck you Canada, you call ham, "bacon."

ITS. NOT. FUCKING. BACON.

the way Lebron plays Sunday will tell us everything we need to know about his off season plans.

Yep, you nailed that one. I think he wants to stay, but he cannot win with this team as set up. Their is no one on this team he can trust. Kyrie and LBJ might not have liked each other but he could trust Kyrie to produce.
He cannot trust his new #2 Love. The rest are all role players and he has a horrible coach on top of that

The silver lining is if he leaves Lue will be gone. I am almost looking forward to a rebuild. If LBJ wants to leave, God Bless and Thank you./ Not like the first time at all

It’s BACK bacon.

Which is different from pork belly.

Bacon is a type of salt-cured pork.[1]Bacon is prepared from several different cuts of meat, typically from the pork belly or from back cuts, which have less fat than the belly.”
 
Body language of whole team is really bad. I am starting to think there is something deeper going on. Getting out hustled every play in the post-season is inexcusable.

I think it’s a problem that basically every player not named LeBron is shitting down his own leg. I think every player is looking at every other player and saying “Why don’t you DO something?” But when veterans like Love, KK, JR, and Green shit themselves, then young guys like Nance, Hood, and Clarkson look on and say, “What the fuck are WE doing here?” Basically, nobody trusts anyone except LeBron to get the job done.
 
Lots and lots of shimmying and dancing from Pacer players last night. Lance doing the air guitar. You ever notice Lance only does his antics at home games? Game 5 he was quiet as a church mouse. Another words....hes a pussy.
 
I just have this bad feeling, if the cavs are really careful Sunday, they could really get blown out. Even at home. I cant believe in this series we havent had one player step up with a good game outside of Lebron. That is mind boggling.

You have to think even if LBJ stays Lue is gone, he has totally lost this team.
 
The team is playing to keep Lebron here, not for themselves or a championship. That has taken its toll on them I believe. Uncertainty is a lethal weapon in a locker room. LeBron is as good as gone, regardless of what happens in this game and they know that. If we manage to get a W then Toronto will destroy us in 5-6 games so doesn't really matter. IF he really wanted to stay here, chase stats and become a city hero with a statue then he would have accepted the PG-Bledsoe trade at the start of the season. Simple as that.

I think that no matter what happens, if LBJ stays or goes, this whole team is getting blown up. Which includes Love getting traded.
