Kyrie is forcing everything tonight

Hero ball isn't always going to work

Kyrie would be playing "hero" whether Dion was in or not. Not making much of a difference other than the Nuggets have let up.

Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
 
Re: Game 51 - Nuggets @ Cavaliers - Saturday, February 9th, 2013 - 7:30 PM EST - NBAT

Kyrie has been getting hit worse than that all night, and they call that a foul? I give up. Not our night.

Hard to beat a team that loves to run on a back to back. Even harder to beat them when you get no respect from the refs.

Well, you can't win them all.

We just have no physicality anywhere other than Gee.

As bad as the Cavs played tonight, they were still in this game against a quality playoff team. Those are good signs of an improving team all things being said.

Great Call by BS not putting Dion back in the game...now Kyrie has to play hero ball because no one else on the floor can create for themself.

Dion was hurting the team tonight. As was Speights, who was gunning like Miles.

Too much selfish play tonight. That, and our perimeter players couldn't stay in front of their guys to save their lives.
 
Re: Game 51 - Nuggets @ Cavaliers - Saturday, February 9th, 2013 - 7:30 PM EST - NBAT

Definitely the kind of game that leads to broken stuff in the living room. Offensive cohesiveness just wasn't there and our perimeter defense allows far too much penetration. Just a recipe for failure all around tonight. Hopefully they can rebound (figuratively and literally).

I'm trying to accept Zeller for what he is at this point, it's just difficult not get frustrated when fucking 5'10 point guards are going right at him and prevailing.

Gee, Livingston, and Ellington contributed. I'm going to forget about the rest of it. That's a good Denver team and they smushed us. They had 8 players in double figures, and their 9th and final player had 7 points. Impressive team ball all night.

as a cavs fan and a guy that bet $300 on over 215.5....why in the fuck do you call timeout down 10 with 48 seconds left then got for a 2 and then not even foul?....wtf are you doing Byron...you waste 20 seconds and then cost me $300 in the fucking process....why even call timeout....not sure I've seen too many NBA teams quit down 8 with almost 40 seconds left before especially after calling a timeout and going for a quick 2
 
This game was lost in the paint. Faried, Koufos and McGee combined for 18-27 FG against 6-23 FG from our bigs. Ugh.

denver's a great regular season team, no question, the depth is unparalleled. just cant see them making much noise in the playoffs, who's their go to guy? i like their team a lot, but its not championship caliber, a guy like gasol would be great for them....obviously that is not going to happen now.
