Cavaliers vs. Suns 7pm 1/25

[Clevelandfan15]

17 3's killed us... most of them really wide open

 

[cav jvl]

Suns made big shots at the end...we didn't.

 

[Rick Astley]

Yeah Johnny. But benching the hot players cost us the game (numero uno mortal sin my friend).

 

[PIP]

Suns made big shots at the end...we didn't.

Very true...

Marion's was huge...

Boobie, Damon and LBJ all missed extremely makeable shots...

 

[johnny]

It looked like Diaw traveled and Marion might've shuffled. I thought Lebron got fouled a lot at the basket with no calls. I don't know it feels like we got screwed by the Cavs on a lot of crucial plays.

 

[johnny]

Not that I don't think the Suns deserve credit for hitting shots. It just annoys me when refs give calls to the team that is bitching the whole game.

 

[crazedcav333]

We did not get screwed.

Great crowd, great game, great atmosphere, great everything except the end result. Gotta like LBJ's emotion at the end, not sure exactly what he said but cursing will get the job done.

 

[Coyote]

I blame Drew and Ira.

And Mike Brown for leaving them in.

 

[3 Da Hard Way]

put ****in shannon in the line up are you serious...atleast tonight...he coulda got in the lane..made some plays....and coulda ran out on them shooting 3's on us all night long...goodnessssssssssss

Ira with the wide open lay up...no pass it to drew with someone right on top of em:thumbdown

 

[NarlCavs]

Tough loss to take. This is one the Cavs should have had. Terrible offensive execution in the 4th. Cavs reverted to the standstill, jack up bad jumpers as the shot clock runs down offense. I think the 1st shot attempt in the paint in the 4th, other than offensive rebounds was LeBron's drive with 29 seconds to go. They continued to settle for deep jumpers. You have to attack Phoenix inside. They're terrible defensively upfront.

Don't know what happened to the great player and ball movement we saw in the Wizards game and the 1st half tonight and why it suddenly disappeared.

At least Hughes looks to be getting his legs back which is good.
Don't like Newble in the starting lineup. Phoenix pretty much left him unguarded.

I can't blame the refs at all for the loss. Both teams had bad calls against them and they pretty much evened out.

Damon and Boobie have to hit those shots, LeBrons miss was like someone pulled it back out of the hoop.

 

[Rick Astley]

We could have done better if Z was left in. What does our coaching team know about run n gun? What a stupid small lineup. We will never beat a team in their own game like the Suns especially having a superstar PG in Nash.

 

[redscoon]

That one is on you Lebron. Terrible 4th quarter showing buddy. Your pound for 22 seconds and fire a 3 never works. N-e-v-e-r. Cut that shit out. Let this be a lesson.

This game was put in jeopardy in the 3rd. Newble sucks. Gooden sucks. By the time they were removed the lead was gone. If I see Drew and Ira running the two man game again, I am going to kick somebody's dog. Hey Ira. How about just dunking the basket when you are right under the rim. OK? Really no need to jump in the air and try to pass to a covered man when you are wide ass open.

3 is greater than 2 last time I checked. After the Suns displayed for 3.5 quarters that they can knock down clean looks from deep at a 50% rate, you HAVE to start making guys finish at the rim.

This was a bad loss. It was there and they coughed it up. Big kick in the balls before the west coast trip.

 

[Maximus]

Why did Z not play in te 4th quarter? Damon wasn't hitting shots and playing terrible D in the 4th....MB should've put Z in for the stretch run. We were playing well when he was in there.

We have the worst inbounds plays in the league. Pathetic last shot.

 

[Coyote]

Mike brown just subtly called out Drew and Ira, I think.

But yeah, where the hell was Z?
