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

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Look like world beaters (at least in offense) in just about every first quarter and the completely fall apart.

127 points on only 75 shots and 16 FTs. DRtg should be around 135-140 for the night, dropping this team to a bottom 7-8 defense in the league.
 
Eventually horrid defense+motivated opponent kills the offense. Essentially that is what happened. By midway through the 3rd, we were knocked out.
 
Can someone tell me why the f Haywood never plays when kyrie bron and love are on the floor all that stuff needs to do is stick his long ass arms up instead of Andy and Tristan getting pounded down low
 
Atlanta did this without their best (arguably) player. They're legitimate.
 
This team is a thousand miles from a title right now. Coaching. Effort. Size. Chemistry. Depth.

These games are painful to watch. Almost never see more than one 8 minute stretch of solid basketball. The rest of the game is made up of terrible defense, getting beat to loose balls, overdribbling and finger pointing.

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.

Blatt's just not doing it for me right now. I have to blame coaching on these losses. A team with James, Love and Irving should lose by over 20 points. Ever.

Because Brendan Haywood is literally one of the worst players in the NBA right now.

I will say this like a Broken record get Brewer here ASAP! Give up Delly, Dion, Anyone not named Kyrie, Love, Bron, T.T, Andy Or... Miller Because Bron. Anyways get that trade done now. Work on a big later.
 
One a positive note: I was impressed by the fact that the place was still packed despite the score.

Cleveland fans, despite the suicidal vibe in the air right now, really do love their teams.
 
Give us Biyombo and Brewer!

This might be the only time I will applaud the casual fan. Either they do not understand the game and are just happy to have a team that is better than 500 or they just love the team. However no need to boo this game. If they come out like this again and lay the same egg then yes BOO the hell out of them.
