Game 42 -|- Cavs @ Jazz -|- Saturday, January 19th, 9:00PM ET

Well we have Walton!!

Yeah I think we can chalk up the Walton at PF experiment as a failed endeavor.

I actually don't mind him in as the 3 when Kyrie and Dion are both in at times. He facilitates well and gets them both in motion and running around the court going side to side.

So I can tell you if I were coach I'd spend the next practice have the guards do nothing but box out drills like they're 10 year olds. They have just stood and watched as Jazz guards have crashed the offensive boards the last 5 minutes.

Cavs(as par for the course) got defensively schooled tonight

We have one guy who rebounds and another who's big enough to rebound. The rest of the team HATES rebounding. They think it's some sort of disease or something.

Right. Kyrie only rebounds on occasion. Dion normally leaks out because he likes to try and score in transition. And CJ is just lazy af.

 

[red.]

Good lord. Zeller just need to fucking bulk up! He is just getting pushed around like a rag doll.

 

[Rich]

Good god. You can see why Jon Leuer doesn't play from just that 30 seconds.

 

[CavsFan_23]

Lmaooo. I guess that why Jon Leuer never plays. Garbage man.

 

[Pyro]

It should have been much worse than an 11 point loss. Dion played great. But as usual, only 1 guy can have a good game.

 

[Rich]

Well, at least Zeller manned up and battled for boards tonight. Not his fault that the Cavs have two guys who compete for boards while the Jazz had a whole team doing it.

 

[melecoaze]

We seriously need to pick up someone from the D-League, just a big body who knows how to rebound, because this is getting ridiculous. Hell, Ryan Hollins would be getting big minutes in this terrible big man rotation.

 

[Cavatt]

Alonzo has been concentrating on D all year. He is getting better.

 

[Thelorn]

Casspi may suck but at least he rebounds. Kevin Jones should be playing the 4 instead of Luke.

 

[Vlad]

Its frustrating how Dion was the only one who wanted to win the game

Giving up 2 offensive rebounds every time is just embarassing

 

[InBoobieWeTrust]

Good lord. Zeller just need to fucking bulk up! He is just getting pushed around like a rag doll.

This is something that happens over the off-season. More realistically, multiple off seasons. I want to see him make a concerted effort towards being able to be more fluid when shooting off of the pick-n-pop. He seems to need a little extra time than normal to set himself and it hurts his shot if that opportunity isn't there. Part of this also falls on our guards getting him the ball in the right spot(in terms of how fast and high the pass is), but still.

Irving needed a big night to have a chance
