Game 57 | Washington @ Cleveland | Sunday February 23, 2014 6:00 PM EST

[Rich]

83 fucking points at home. What do you expect Mike Brown? Kyrie is the only guy on the floor that can create, and catch and shoot. Too much TT. Jack can't do shit. At least Sergey can shoot and pass.

Do you know of someone else on the team that can create? I don't.

 

[brooks]

I love Delly, but this is the 2nd game in a row where he's missed numerous wide open 3's that could have given us some energy. Tristan killed our momentum on more than a few occasions as well with dumb fouls & ball stopping.

We're a decent team when our shots are falling, but when we're in a slump it's brutal to watch. They demolished us in the 4th. We've gotta figure out some way to get better at defending the fast break as well. I thought we've done a decent job of it recently, but Washington exploited us on WAY too many occasions.

We need a W against Toronto on Tuesday.

If only MB had a twitter handle I could harass. I might be less annoyed.

 

[Salem]

To be fair he was cut multiple times before finally "getting" it.

No, I believe Mike Brown's usage of him led to Green's fatalistic and cynical attitude.

 

[Rich]

Just not enough talent when all of these guys are hurt and Kyrie just wasn't good enough the last two nights. That's about it.

 

[OptimusPrime]

Do you know of someone else on the team that can create? I don't.

There's one guy in a suit. That doesn't help us tonight though.

 

[wremy]

Excuses, excuses. He didn't play well. Didn't asset himself. Didn't really set up his teammates. When will his struggles ever be on him?

he had a bad shooting 2nd half.. I seen him try to get us back in it but his jumper was off... I seen him teammates shoot like shit.. there is a difference between excuses and reality... if he was hot then yea that makes a difference... it is what it is .. he didn't make his shots

 

[#21]

Can we go back to tanking? It was way more fun than this.

 

[mAo_mAo]

Our two shooting guards are out but we don't play our back up plan in Sergey. He does not have the same motor as Delly/Gee but he clearly has the talent advantage. I have no words on how rigid MB is with rookies.

 

[Rich]

We only turned the ball over 12 times, held them to 42% and out-rebounded them. I mean, not bad. BUt we just have enough guys without Waiters and Miles that can make shots. Kyrie had to go score 35 these two games for us to win and he didn't. Oh well.

 

[Rich]

There's one guy in a suit. That doesn't help us tonight though.

That's what I'm saying. Blaming MIke Brown because he only had one creator on the floor, I mean there is no one else.

 

[redscoon]

Not going to win with Kyrie putting up a Larry Hughes stat line. 6 for 17 with 2 FTAs isn't cutting it. Not when we are undermanned and you know you have to pick it up.

Somebody really needs to let Mike Brown know that Tristan is not a 35 minute a night guy. He just throws a wet blanket on everything offensively.

Isn't anybody in this organization wondering why everybody comes here from other teams and looks worse? First Jack and Clark. Now Deng. Can it be that we don't run any offense besides the most simplistic, rec league garbage? Do these guys stay up at night thinking of more ways to get non shooters looks from 18 feet out?

Just a miserable, prototypical Mike Brown game. The Wiz come in on a 2nd night of a back to back, play a mediocre game and beat us handily. Injuries or no injuries, this was some bull shit tonight.

 

[math-yoo]

...I mean there is no one else.

Riding Delly and Jack to the tune of 4-16 and 8 points is ridiculous.

season is over, we wont make enough jump shots with Brown's rotations.

 

[mAo_mAo]

AB needs to develop fast to lessen minutes of Tristan. I really had high hopes for him coming into the season that he would at least be respectable on offense. When defenders take away the middle in his post up situations he crumbles, still can't hit a 15 footer to save his life, and his defense is slowly becoming overrated.
