Game 30 | Detroit Pistons (6-23) @ Cleveland Cavaliers (18-11) | December 28, 2014 | 4:30 pm EST

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
So disappointed with this team that I forgot to be angry. So angry I could dance. An angry dance.

Lebron isn't at fault with everything, but this was one game, he lead the team down to hell. We were doing fine, he comes in and plays like he wants Blatt fired, the rest of the team follows suit and plays like shit.
 
Kinda glad Kyrie wasn't part of this bullshit tonight. But man. LeBron looked like his "hate memes" tonight. And everyone else? Wasn't Assfingers bad, but still pretty horrible considering how bad the Pistons are.
 
This is, hands down, the worse loss of the season. Coupling that massive turn around with the overall record of the opponent, this was just painful to watch.

Screw it, I am usually all for the silver lining in things but I see none in this game, I see very little in the season so far. I do not care if a big is out, I do not care if you lack size, that is no excuse for the massive turn arounds this team has experienced this season. To allow 55% from the 3 to a 6 win team is beyond moronic.

They have been outplayed in more games than not this season and I am fearful of the team that shows up in Atlanta and because that game is on NBAtv alot of us are relegated to the Hawk homers. What team shows up?

This season is by no means over but this has got to be mental. They aren't playing defense, not even attempting to mask it. I hope, in the grand scheme of things, this is an experient by LBJ to be like that is NOT how you win and go from there.

I doubt it, but I got to look for some positives. I don't think a new big guy will solve all the problems, you can't win games when your offense is 1 shot per and you decide to only play one end of the floor.

Mike Miller, Love and Thompson at 6'9 is our starting center. Irving is also average at best. How on earth are we going to be a good defensive team?
 
They don't have to be good. They have to be average. They aren't even ball parking average right now.

By committee, this is basketball...its not rocket science. If they even remotely tried to defend tonight, this game would have been a toss up.

There is nothing a team can do about Jenning's turnaround heaves from three that seemed to swish every time, the Cavs were certainly trying. This is someone who was only shooting 37% from the field this season. Not only was Jennings making his miracle shots but every random player on that team was hitting threes, Butler, Caldwell-Pop, Jerebko, Meeks. When an entire team is in the zone, there is no defense for that.

It was actually quite an accomplishment to only give up 103 points to a team that made 17-31 threes (which is like a TS% of 75). Our offense was far worse than our defense tonight. 17 turnovers and 37% shooting will amount to a blowout no matter who we play.
 
Watch the first quarter and a half before I went to bed. Things looked good. Nice offense. Defense was active. Wtf happened...ughh.
 
I didn't watch all of that trainwreck..once the Pistons were allowed or shown that they could take the lead , I knew it would be bad.
Optimus said Lebron looked like he doesn't want to play anymore..
Why does he look like he's a below average player at times?
All of the TO's he's had so far look feeble and mental.I said in the Talk forum he looks totally different since he came back.
Quite ordinary.
