Game 7 | Cavs vs Sixers | Nov.9th 7:30EST

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Are we gonna play CJ for 30+ minutes? Might as well...
 
if Bennett is out for an extended period of time, would love to see Earl off the bench as the backup 4.

This. Put Gee/Miles in the starting lineup, run a bench unit of Bynum-Clark-Miles/Gee-Karasev-Jack...
 
This isn't tough to figure out:

Start Kyrie, Dion, Bynum, Gee and TT

But if you got balls....

Start Kyrie, CJ, Bynum, Gee and TT
Second rotation: Dion at the point, AV, Karasev at the 2, Clark at the 3 and Bennett at the 4

Sit Jack, who is running the second unit into the ground...and NEVER play Jack and Irving together. If Bennett is out awhile, play Sims/Zeller at the 4 and go big

But alas...we paid Jack all that money, so he WILL keep dribbling our hopes down the shitter.

Bynum needs tonight off, but I agree with what you're saying for the most part.
 
I know Bynum usually won't play back to backs, but is he officially listed as out tonight??
 
We better win this one or I'll have to go on a RCF hiatus until Monday.

:huh: It's obvious we aren't tanking anymore, or else he would have sat a few weeks...
 
Bennett's playing?

Damn, that's a surprise. Hope he goes off.
 
What minute mark do people say we are tanking?

Usually takes 30 games for a back like Trent Richardson to adjust to a system. It only takes 6 games to know if an NBA team is tanking.

Still wanna see Karasev.

Id go with this personally...

Kyrie, CJ, Clark, TT, Andy

second unit of

Dion, Karasev, Gee, Bennett, Sims/Zeller

Id talk to Jack and have him take a night off and watch the last 3-4 game tapes of himself and how he has been impacting the game. Make it a injury DNP if you have to, dont care. He needs to be held accountable early so he can get back on track with his approach to playing the game on both ends.

Waiters and Kyrie would BOTH attack from the minute they touch the ball, Waiters creates well off the bounce and is a better passer in traffic than Kyrie, so he makes the game easier for Bennett as well. Those lineups of course are not subbed in whole units. So you initially sub Waiters for Irving OR Waiters for CJ and when he comes in he goes on the ball immediately and Kyrie goes off the ball. No worrying or guessing about who will bring it up, Waiters brings it up when he comes in.

Then when they play together after that, once Waiters has his legs under him and once he gets to blowing in those hands, you can go by matchups or off feel of the game again.
