Game 19 - Cavs @ Wolves

[Pyro]

bringing people to downtown cleveland has tons to do with the casino. They'll get a percentage of cavs at the casino fans before and after games.

And considering the Indians and Browns are looking up, the casino is fine.

 

[NarlCavs]

The new version of Bird, McHale and Parish to close out the 1st half for the Cavs---Ryan Hollins, Leon Powe, and Jawad Williams.

Guess there's no longer any doubt about what direction the Cavs should take as an organization. Just a sad depressing performance.

Well, with as many opportunities as they have wasted, 54 points in a half should be enough to get it done if you play any defense. Scoring isn't the problem tonight, although they should have a lot more points than they do have.

I was about to post something similar. The main problem thus far is minnesota shot an 11-14 from 3.

byron scott should just sit jawad and go in himself. hes better than jawad

I wouldn't be too sure about that. There comes a point or a line in the sand when the mind and eyes have to start wondering about Byron Scott as a head coach. I know we have no talent, but we also have zero desire. When does this become a coaching problem?

On 39% shooting compared to 61%. We're lucky to have 54 points and they don't have 90. We need some upgrades, maybe jolt these guys with the All-Spark or something.

You are absolutely right, but I do think Scott is a better basketball player than Jawad Williams. He might as well check himself into the game.

A coach can try to motivate his players, but if they can't make a shot, there's nothing he can do. i just think the whole team (the players and the coach) knows that this team doesn't have the talent to win...everyone in the organization knows where this team is going...i say let them lose and get some draft picks....that's really the only way for this organization to get out of this hole anyway.

 

[Layne Staley]

This team just looks lost imo. They are not running offensive sets well at all

 

[dontstartnomess]

1. Jawad is starting....fml
2. Why the HELL is this game not in HD????? I HATE DirectTV

1. .......shares **sigh** of sympathy
2. Feel no sorrow about not seeing this ugly abomination of basketball in high-definition splendor. The Cavs play tonight is an insult to HD sports.
(.........returns to comfy seat and tries to resist urge to flip to NBA TV........)

Bill Lambier deserves to be an NBA head coach. If we didn't already have Scott, I'd take him in a second. It's no coincidence that Beasley, Love, and Darko are playing so well.

 

[OptimusPrime]

I would take Laimbeer over Scott.

After 18 games, the veterans have had enough with trying to eek out wins. Basically every important player on the team has no interest in trying anymore. The attitude of the team has shifted from galvanized and angry to simply depressed and sad. They are feeling sorry for themselves and to put it simply, they have officially quit on this city. It's time to clean house.

 

[MikeSwim07]

How do we even have 7 wins??

 

[Ruggeder]

Kevin Love would be an amazing player to get, and Milicic is playing really well. I wish I had positives about our team.

 

[MikeSwim07]

They have outscored us 25-8 in the 3rd so far....really. That is just not showing any heart at all. Even a team with no talent can do better than that
