Game 41 | Cavs (20-20) @ Clippers (26-13) | January 16, 2015 | 10:30pm EST

Our bench of Delly, Marion, and Miller was +10. Hawes, Rivers, Jones, and Crawford were -55.

I'm worn out. I should have been asleep 2 hours ago, instead of getting my BP up.

Quick take - Are the Cavs better without Kevin Love?

*walks out*

(being sarcastic)

 

[supermario21]

Love's rebounding early on would have been very helpful.

Yeah I cannot believe that people in the Clipper organization were okay with trading a 1st rounder for Austin Rivers. He absolutely does not belong in the NBA. What a joke.

At least we haven't signed Dru Joyce or Romeo Travis...yet

 

[priceFTW]

LBJ, Kyrie, and Austin Rivers are the players of the game. Team's eyes just lit up every time they saw Rivers enter the game.

Don't forget Crawford. Dude made Dion/JR look like Stockton/Nash as far as shot selection is concerned.

The Clips have a great offense but it would be so much better without Crawford chucking.

Doesn't Crawford typically go off when he sees a cavs uniform? Dodged a bullet.

He was terrible. I imagine it had to do with the pressure of playing for his dad but he seriously triggered every run we went on.

What people? Doc Rivers is the GM. So it's basically him and then Steve Ballmer, the owner. Doc Rivers is very ok with trading for his own son.

I want to be positive. Really, I do... but that defense still wasn't good (how many times did they just give up on shooters?), and they were bailed out by LeBron and Kyrie shooting out of their minds. Players not named Shawn Marion or Mike Miller (who continues to miss open looks) shot 61% from the floor, and they still almost lost that game.

Nice to beat an actual team for once though.

 

[supermario21]

Remember when we almost traded Zeller for Reggie Bullock?

Did not know that.

 

[Stark]

Super crazy proposition here, but would anybody be opposed to starting Tristan and Mozgov and bringing Love off the bench to go to work against reserve bigs?

HEY! What did I say before the game?
