Eastern Conference Finals Game 4 : Cleveland Cavaliers @ Toronto Raptors, May 23rd, 8:30pm

Kyrie is our best closer.

The issue is Kyrie really needs to do a much better job on the pick and roll. Delly shouldn't be *this*much better than him at it.

Ah...no he isn't...the evidence...including tonight, shows it...Kyrie in a PNR is a cluster fuck...he will not pass the ball at the right time.

At the end of the game you want the ball in the hands of selfless people that are prepared to do the team thing and understand the game plan...Kyrie...Nope. Blast had it right...Delly closes out games

Should the Cavs survive this round, I hope they play as if they KNOW they will get fucked by the refs. Because that's almost a given in the NBA Finals, no matter the opponent, but especially if it is Golden State.

They should be doing that right now, after this last game. When the Cavs went up 3, the fix was in. AND 1s, ghost fouls, and no calls galore. Defense was trash, but they let Biyombo and Lowry get away with everything.

Monday's Ruling on the Green kick in the balls tells you the NBA is a phony, corrupt league, in my opinion. Even the ESPN announcers agree it was a bullshit call. Kiki was just on ESPN almost apologizing for Green, in my opinion.

Lue's an absolute idiot for not saying anything about the refs. Thank you @Chris Parker for trying atleast. What pisses me off about Lue's demeanor is that he thinks hes some damn macho man. There's no room to be macho here. You played for Zen Master Phil Jackson for fucks sake. Work the oficials. Even if you're not gonna bring it up you gotta atleast say "We saw how Casey complaining worked tonight but we're a no excuse team and aren't going to cry about it." Atleast get it in their minds man!

Why do you say this, because when Van Gundy worked the refs, he got the whistle, when the Atlanta coach worked the refs he got the whistle and when the Toronto coach worked the refs he got the whistle? Lue just stands there on the sidelines looking small and quiet like a teacher's pet, saying nothing, just glad to be in the NBA. Maybe next year we get a real NBA coach who isn't so calm. The Cavs mirrored their coach tonight, calm and quiet. Nice.

Are we facing adversity yet? Cavs still win in 6. Don't be discouraged Cavs fans. We are the better team. This will only make us better prepared for the Finals, so we can finally get our long awaited championship.

The better team doesn't always win. See 1986-87 AFC Championship Game. See 1995 World Series. See 2009 ECF. See 2010 ECSF.

Man I can't sleep now fuuuuuuuuck Kevin love he turned back into his January self

Can I say it........Wigg....no, not yet, it's only been two terrible games. There's still time for him to pull his head out of his overpaid ass and maybe get Tristan's head out of his overpaid ass.

 

[KilgoreTrout]

With the ass-jacking from the refs, the NBA might get what it actually wants: a Toronto-GS Finals.

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Remember when the young Lebron team took Detroit the distance? Sure we lost game 7 but this has a similar feeling. There's no way we lose this, it's time for the real Cavs fans to act like just that. No bullshitting, poking fun and laughing, nor giving up, it's too late for all that nonsense. Stay true to the shit that brought you here. You think I wanna sign on and read negative bullshit, no. Leave that shit forthe outsiders.

You're either with us, or against us.

It's no fault of mine... Our team is letting us down. They aren't losing to the better team... They are coming out and playing like shit, and letting a better team beat them.

 

[KilgoreTrout]

I'm ready for this LeBron on Wednesday:

Where's he been?

If you think the NBA is rigged after today, no chance in hell the NBA allows the raptors into the finals

Sometimes you lose control of what you are trying to rig... You're just trying to give a team a game, and you end up giving them the series, because the team you fucked never recovers...

Except by being here, we're Cleveland fans, which means negative bullshit, giving up and poking fun is what brought us here in the 1st place.

If u say so.

Honestly, the Raptors shooting out of their minds these last two games is just the regression balancing itself out to the mean. And I'm sure things will start to look more "realistic" the next few games. Averages usually play themselves out.

Said all Cavs fans in 2009

 

[col63onel]

If u say so.

That's true, I guess we all just wanted to to find a place to share all the great successes our sports teams have had.

Cavs are letting Bismack take over the series. Regardless of how Lowry and DeRozan shot, we were up in the 4th and couldn't go bucket for bucket because of paint defense and bad perimeter shooting. They need to stop thinking they can shoot out of a funk and get Biyambo in foul trouble.

 

[Andrew]

I honestly think the Cavaliers are over thinking this series, just play your game and you are clearly the better team. The Raptors shot 54% from the field in game 4 and their back court has been balling, I want to see the will and hustle this team has had this entire run so far. I expect nothing less than a game I can look at and be proud of the effort, despite the outcome.
