Game 8: Cavs @ Nets | Nov. 13th | 7:30 PM EST

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I've been totally realistic about this team from the start. I knew they were too young and inexperienced to win many games. However, when Byron Scott puts in five bench guys at once and (to the surprise of no one) we get blown out, I just want to turn off the fucking TV.

He hasn't put 5 bench guys in at once. 5 bench guys have been in at the same time, but at no point in this game has there been a mass substitution where all 5 starters were subbed out for all 5 bench guys.
 
So we tout Hickson who is in his 5th year but shit on Tristan who is in his 2nd?

Thompson is going to be 22 years old in a few months and still looks like he is learning to play basketball.

That is not a good sign at all.

And meanwhile gloss over the fact that Hickson was dumber than a box of rocks and couldn't catch a pass to save his life while he was here.
 
Damn that expression on Irving's face after the layup said it all...
 
I went into the season looking for "closer" than last season...I'm starting to wonder if this team is actually worst than last years. Kind of a disappointing start to a season where I just expected fun, competitive games. Oh well, maybe a much needed homestand will get things back on track.

I wasn't referring to a mass substitution, just five bench guys being on the court at the same time. It's unwatchable. Even four is pretty terrible unless the fifth guy is Kyrie or Dion (the only two guys on our team capable of creating shots for others).

However, he grew up in Canada. Basketball was only invented there 5 years ago. :chuckles:

Didn't ever deny he did any of that. Lead the team in points his last year here, but I guess we're satisfied with Assfingers and a role player
 
Don't worry boys, Andray Blatche is in the game. We have a chance!
 
Scott might as well play the starters the rest of the game. I don't think we play again until Saturday.
 
And we have a shot at coming back, amazing.
