Lead gets cut to single digits, and Byron doesn't put back in his best player who is capable of putting up points in a hurry. Absolutely absurd.

No, I'm sorry, but it's deserved. Kyrie was getting shit on on defense, barely even trying. He has to learn at some point he can't just play one end of the court.

Kyrie is the best 4th quarter player in the NBA. I don't give a flying expletive how he's playing the first 3 quarters

I do......

He wasn't going to have to play defense this time because we were just fouling right away.

Most frustrating game I've watched all season FYI.


Mostly because of Byron's dumbass fucking rotations.

You have to put Kyrie Irving back in there in crunch time. I don't care what he did before, but he can lead the Cavs to victory in these situations. Wins in games like these are confidence-builders for a young team. Instead it's another demoralizing L.

It doesn't matter. A message needs to be sent. It's a game they were likely going to lose anyway and you can't just let him continue to play like this on defense night after night. Brandon Knight was getting wherever he wanted to get on the court.

We would lose this game with Kyrie in or out. Detroit ran circles around us the entire game.

I dont get some of you guys, people bitch because LeBron had everything he wanted, and now that Kyrie is benched because he is a lazy ass on defense, they bitch too.

Byron Scott lol

Re: Game 47: Cleveland Cavaliers @ Detroit Pistons | February 1st, 2013 | 7:30 PM [ES

You guys can bash Scott all you want. Kyrie Irving did not deserve to close out that game with the effort he was giving on defense. He just didn't.

we have to be the worst defensive team in the history of basketball

Believe it or not the Cavs are not worse than last years Bobcats

Fuck a W. Kyrie needs to understand that he can't only try on one side of the court...Dion,and Tyler too. Ill take a loss like this if it means that we'll finally get through to our young core's heads to play defense than a win in a lost rebuilding season any day.
