Let it all out. The Cavaliers Rant Thread

[Ryan Gladish]

Guys we are doomed. Fuckin doomed.

I ain't seeing it. Your acting like Avery Bradley is some kind of all star shooting guard. He is good defender who can just as easily get posted up by bigger gaurds. He shoots 42 % from the field and is a average offensive player at best. I would start him if we got him for nothing, but if your saying we should trade Waiters for him it would be a lateral move

he's not just a "good defender" he's an elite defender, one of the best in the NBA at his position

and he doesnt get posted up by larger guards, he blocks guys bigger than him in the post

he doest what 6' 4" tony allen does to tall forwards

he's having a down shooting year from 3pt but we dont need him for offense...we need defense badly and adding one of the best guard defenders in the NBA would benefit us greatly

Man I swear with all the craziness I swear this was last teams year. We have a winning record and yes the loss of A.V was a huge blow. The team had to learn to play with out him. Players are not hitting shots they used to and our coach never coached in the NBA before along with adding a All Star big who is asked to not be the whole team.

Okay that said the team needs to act quick to get some players here and I am done with the whole "Well we are in no hurry" They better get in a hurry. We see we are lacking two pieces and if Love goes down my god. Get a big and a capable wing and worry about your major piece next year. For gods sake a few players are wanting to play here so sign them. We need big bodies who are not slow lurches or untrusted rookies.

The best thing I can say about this team is that with the absolute nightmare way the season has gone so far, we're still only 6.0 games back of the outright lead in the East with about 2/3rds of the season still to go.

And the Bulls just got blown out at home by the Nets.

As much as I want to pound random objects with a sledgehammer in frustration with how things have gone so far, I still have hope.

This. People are acting like we are under 500 and a tanking team will a ball hog who happens to be the best player in the NBA arguably at this point. We have a winning record. When the Browns have one people go NO WAY AWESOME! Browns are going to the play offs! The Cavs have one... Oh the team sucks they are awful LeBron sucks and is immature. The team is garbage fire Blatt Trade Love. I mean really? Yes the team is not great right NOW but we are not even half way through the season. Ugh!

The Cavs are the worst team ever, actually. They should all be made to wear dresses. Time to murder Dion. Sell to Seattle while they still can.

Okay... are you trolling or that out tune with NBA basketball? I wonder if you ever seen the 76'ers play?

I was mimicking the Chicken Littles.

That you had to ask is a sad testament on how much people are panicking at this point.

Yeah they really are and not only on here but everywhere. I swear this was or is the the 2012 team by the reactions I seen.

Win or lose, doesn't matter to me as long as the team continues to work on chemistry, offense, defense etc.

In the end, just make the playoffs and get this team some experience together.

Though there has been an improvement in offence since game 1, defensively it seems like we've gotten worse apart from a few quarters when we looked like an elite defensive team. I don't know whether to blame the coaches, the players or both but I see a lack of communication, effort and understanding most of the time. We're the team with multiple superstars yet we constantly double guys who should be played man to man, leaving some random average player open at the 3 point line. With the amount of games we've played, it actually is kind of scary that we haven't seemed to consistently progress.

This x1000.

You can't be a mediocre rebounding team, horrible P&R D team, bad transition D team, and give up 1 on 1 drives with no rim protection and expect to do anything.

Show some progress in at least ONE of those areas and I'd feel a lot better about how we are trending.

The roster just isn't very good at all the drop off after Lebron, Irving, Love, and I guess Waiters is really bad.

 

[roozy]

Its really shocking to me that this team seems to struggle hitting WIDE OPEN three's, it really is mind boggling watching career 40 percenters clank three after three. Watching Delly handing out layups is getting tiring but Delly's backup AJ Price seems even worse.
