Game 79 | Cavaliers @ Bulls | April 8th, 2010 | 8:00 PM (EST)

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
What is it with Cavaliers refusing to drive at the end of games?

With the way that game was being called do you honestly expect the guys were going to draw any fouls while driving to the basket late in the game? Come on now.
 
The only loss tonight was Jamison getting hurt, I'm hoping it's nothing serious, but that slow mo replay was pretty ugly.
 
Andy is 1b. The only reason Andy took those shots is because Mo wouldn't just take over himself.

Mo took (and missed) a clutch shot moments before with Hinrich draped all over him. He's not LeBron. Cavs needed to actually run a play. They probably aren't used to doing so since their normal MO is just put the ball in LeBron's hands and hope for the best.
 
Flashback..Game 4...NBA Finals...4th quarter...Varejao....

Game _3_. If it was Game 4, it wouldn't have hurt as much. But it was the difference between down 3-0 and down 2-1. I personally got the shakes when I saw the re-emergence of the 2K7 Varejao...
 
I cannot believe I just wasted 3 hours of my life only to see Anderson Varejao be the guy to take the hero shot of the game. WTF was that?!?!? Very upsetting!

I sure don't want any part of the Bulls in the first round. They give the Cavs problems, and we don't play good defense against them.

Also, the refs really seemed to swallow their whistles in favor of the Bulls at the end of the game. I saw a lot of reaching in, and blocking fouls that weren't called. Especially on Antawn's play when he got hurt, and then Mo's layup attempt with like 25 seconds left.


Really? The Cavs just lost by ONE POINT in Chicago without LeBron... what's there to be scared of?
 
The defense was pathetic tonight, and the ball was in the hands of Varejao for the final shot, but I don't really mind. This was a game with absolutely no importance, and it would have been HILARIOUS if Andy knocked down the game winner (though I doubt that's what the Cavs had in mind...).

Chicago is no threat at all in the playoffs, unless Shaq has some real problems fitting back in. Toronto would be easier, but this win was on a night LeBron, West, and Shaq weren't playing, as we all know. When all of those players are healthy and they play with playoff intensity, the Cavs are almost guaranteed to at least get to the ECFs.
 
Again, I repeat, why do the Bulls want the 8th seed? Seriously, I can't wrap my head around it.

Referees didn't decide the game. Cavs had chances, they just couldn't execute in the last minute of the game. Not having Jamison didn't help. Would have been better having him take those shots than AV.
 
Everyone that complains about other teams fans, remember, we are stuck with Cavfanatic also...
 
I seriously was loling while all that was happening. That's just too funny.
 
The Cavs should have run the play where they get it to the post, then have the wing player set a screen for Mo. Hit Mo in the corner for the three... he's money from the corners.
 
Umm guys we lost by ONE at Chicago who had a healthy lineup and we had no LBJ, Shaq, Delonte, and Boobie and to top it off it was a meaningless game.. I think we'll be fine
