Game 59 | Cavs (35-23) @ Spurs (35-25) | February 25, 2017 | 3:30 pm EST

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Perhaps this beat down will be the excuse we need to make lineup changes.
 
Yeah, I love Cedi, but he can't start.

Yeah, clearly Cedi's fault that we have the worst coach in the league.
Our coach is a joke.

We have Lebron and Green as our two front court players and as a result we need the rest of the players to help them on the boards because they can't rebound against their own man, so you can't even run in transition with Lebron and Green!

We need stops and to score quickly being down, but with that lineup we can't get consistent stops(because we can't rebound or defend), and when we do get a rebound, we can't score easily and quickly in transition because everybody is trying to help on the boards.


Nance barely plays despite having the perfect matchup for him. I'm certain I can make better adjustments than Lue in game.
 
Lue keeping Korver when he fucked up about 15 times in a row before hitting a 3, then not having a center out there to guard Aldridge. Oh, not playing Nance even though he's out best screener... Man, it better take the Cavs winning a championship to save Lue's job because if Mike Brown looks like a better overall coach, you're not deserving of the job.
 
I mean Lue's logic is this:
Player has 4 fouls. Better bench him and save him for more important parts of the game.
Proceed to lose the lead and get shat on until it's time to clear the bench without bringing player back.

What an absolute idiot.
 
why the fuck does Nance only play 15 minutes. Why the fuck does Clarkson play only 23 minutes. Lue, wtf. Give players more minutes, son of a biatch

PERFECT!!!!!
 
yea lue's a dumbass

life is all about timing and who you know and he hit the jackpot
 
Korver, Smith, Osman, Hill and Hood can all eat a bag of dicks today

5 for 26
 
I don't understand that 4th quarter lineup: Murray really had his way with Clarkson and you could see that early. The spurs also had a double PG alignment with Mills so that when Hood was switched to Murray, Mills had a mismatch easy.

They should have gone with Hill in there to take Murray with Clarkson as Korver was just not right out there today. Way too little Nance today overall: not really feeling we're putting our personal in a winning position here
 
Lue seems to "luck" into lineups that work. I'm not sure they involve foresight or strategy. This is a dangerous way to exist in the NBA where the margins for victory at the top are so slim and unforgiving. Please correct me if I'm wrong (i.e., I'd like to be wrong because Lue is OURS for the balance of the season, and it worries the shit out of me)
