Couple things here , Mobley is the better player most coaches would have did the same thing, Wade was throwing up bricks all game before going off the last 10 minutes or so,…..Let’s see which Wade shows up tonight, Hopefully he don’t wait until the 4 quarter to be engaged.
Not me. I knew he had this in him all along, just check my past posting history. I never knew if he'd ever unlock it, but to me he has this in him.
Where's the "rolls eyes" emoji when you need it?
So true. I was so down hard on this team after the Knicks loss. To go from the high of the Dallas win, to the low of the Knicks loss, back to the high of the Celtics win... I liked roller coasters when I was younger but now, not so much. Physical teams are Cavs kryptonite.
It doesn't matter who brings the ball up across half court. What the message needs to be is anyone and everyone who brings the ball across half court is to immediately pass the ball and initiate ball movement as early in the play clock as possible. The goal should be for at least 3 and preferably 5 players to touch the ball on every possession. That is how we had success, that is how you get everyone in the rhythm and flow of the game, that is how you get shooters to heat up. This bullshit of stopping and dribbling one foot inside the half court line needs to stop, for every possession. Even in crunch time.
Giving Porter more than 6 minutes earlier might help DG down the stretch.
Here's the thing about the Cavaliers. We have a very large collection of players who, on any given night, can get hot and dominate or can be completely ineffective. Unfortunately, we don't have enough players who we can count on for consistent numbers night after night and we probably only have one player who can simply decide to take over a game because that's what we need.
That's a better situation that a lot of other teams...
There is another D Wade?
That's why we're 3rd in the conference, but it's still difficult to predict with any confidence how we are going to do in the playoffs.
So it's one of the reasons I give DG a pass in crutch time is that it's obvious he is being told to play differently. Last night is a perfect example. there is no way in hell the final 2 minutes of offensive possessions play out that way other than by a team being told run the clock. It happened the moment the Cavs took the lead
How about a few possessions before that when KP spend like 8 seconds in the key trying to create a foul on George N , even the announcer said that should have been 3 seconds call. That play the Celtics we’re down 4, under a minute
Yeah his end of game awareness is truly awful. I would rather have Caris who is an low basketball IQ idiot bring the ball up if it's a tight game against the Hawk.
