Game 24 | Cleveland Cavaliers (14-9) vs. Atlanta Hawks (17-7) | December 17th, 2014 | 7:00 PM EST

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
We're 14-10...gotta start thinking about the standings at this point.
A loss is a loss weather by 1 or 30 What this mean is we better show up against good defenses and actually play it on the other end as well. That is my worry.
 
There's no way that a team with the talent they have should lose like this. I know the defense needs work but this goes beyond that, this game was about effort and THAT pisses me off more than anything
 
Are we one of the worst second half teams in the league? We've given up so many second half points in the last few games. Tied against OKC. Tied against New Orleans. Down 5 against Atlanta. What does Blatt say at halftime to let this team come out in the 3rd with such shit effort?
 
So who will be in a fist fight tonight? Place your bets now.

Yes and no. If you lose by 1 and hold team under 90, it's a good game. Lose by 30 you look like shit plus show no progress.
 
Correct the fucking shit ass bench.

The bench had little to do with this loss. The entire team played shit defense and no lead would have been safe with the starters playing so lousy.

But the effort has been shit all game. We just failed to continue scoring 30 every quarter, but we weren't defending from the tip.
 
I remember LeBron making what I thought was a very puzzling comment in the heart of our 4 game losing streak early on.. he said something to the effect of "I know this isn't the worst it'll get this season". (paraphrasing). I thought he misspoke, meant to say "this is as bad as it'll get this season so I'm not worried".

He didn't misspeak and he was correct. This is a low, low moment. Declaration of war is damn right. These guys manhood is being called into question. This is humiliating. Bad sports week for Cleveland fans.

True but our bench is garbage
 
So can we just have that gift card sent to David Griffin so he can use it as trade bait to get us a goddamn rim protector?
