Round 1, Game 2 | Cavaliers vs. Pistons | April 21, 2009 | 8:00 PM EST | TNT/FSOH

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Did we seriously just almost blow a 29 point lead in like 3 minutes? Our bench is an epic fail. I rarely post during games, but a fail like that deserves a post.
 
Depending on how Mike Brown uses this crappy stretch with the team, this could actually end up being a good thing for us.

It's already a good thing for the Pistons.
 
What? LBJ kissed a fan? Savannah is not going to be too happy about that.
 
I can't believe Curry played Bynum for just 3 minutes in the first half (and very little in the 1st game). He brings them a major change of pace.

He's missed some shots in the 4th (shot too much, I think), but he helped make it a game, which is more than you can say for most of the Pistons.

If I was Curry I'd seriously start Bynum next game. Forget the scoring, change of pace argument. He's been the only player to show heart this entire series! He might not fair better than anyone else, but shit, at least he'll go down swinging.
 
I gurantee we see a LOT more of Bynam in game 3. Damn the bench for making it so obvious even Curry couldn't miss it.
 
Can you think of a punishment for the bench for their performance today???
 
Not happy whatsoever with this win. Pathetic play by our bench, poor coaching, poor concentration headed into that 4th quarter. Hope this is a wake up call that while we might be on the verge of being elite, we're not there yet.
 
Only benefit I see from this is a refocusing and something for this team to work on.
 
Tonight's game gives the Cavs initiative to be focused in Game 3, rather than come out flat in Detroit. Coaches and players will all be on notice.

That's not such a bad thing long-term, as long as they don't fold tonight. The extra minutes they played tonight will be worth it if they end up playing one less game in the series.

Trying to be an optimist here.
 
On another note, Mutumbo's career seems to be done. He went down and is in pain.
He's being taken out on a stretcher. I hate seeing this type of thing to anyone.
 
i dont like to see Bynum in the next game logging in major minutes because he is so freaking ugly.
