Game #62: Cleveland Cavaliers vs. San Antonio Spurs -- Tuesday, 7:00 PM EST

[PeonHaiters]

Serious question no jokes really

What is our system on offense?

I have to preface this by saying: I am not joking.

He is quoted as saying that they try pick n roll and if that doesn't work they pass the ball from side to side. If that doesn't work then (and only then) do they call a play.

I seriously doubt this would work even in a rec league (assuming similar talent level on both teams.)

Our defense is the king of and-1s.

 

[Plaxicofan7]

how many 3 point plays have the Spurs gotten this game? add that to their 3 pointers made, and not sure if any team wins with a team shooting that well (and much ) from deep.

 

[Stark]

Matt Bonner is so bad. :chuckles:

 

[getBUCKED]

I wish Bennett wouldn't get bullied so much on rebounds, he has such a wide base. Still don't know why Mike Brown doesn't play the kid, he's a first overall pick :thumbdown:

Missed the game, was out tonight... Question...

With a couple mins left, Deng has a positive (+1) +/-...and he played 35 mins. Down 19.

How did that happen? Curious.

 

[Toph]

At least Bennett hit some garbage time jumpers

Patty Mills and Danny Green rained 3's in the 2nd quarter, then again at the end of the third when I believe Deng was off the floor.

Five fouls in 9 minutes. Oh well. Pretty much what I figured tonight. This is the worst matchup in the league for us on so many levels. Move on cause Im not sure tonight means anything.

The defense was awful tonight, we got nothing from the 3 and 4 positions, and the ball and people movement on offense was non existent. Otherwise, good job.

Against defensive teams like San Antonio, we aren't going to be able to move the ball like the Spurs do, but if we have Waiters and Irving on the floor we don't have to, we just have to move it from the strong side to the weak side and let one of those two create something.

On defense, they just broke our will with the nonstop passing, and when the help was too far off of their own man to recover in the first half, predictably nothing changed in the second half. Fuck Mike Brown.

 

[Los216]

Bennett and Dion should be starting.

Edit: sorry misread. Its the hunger

That's why that stat means very little in general, and nothing for the course of one game. He was probably on the bench during a couple of their fire hot shooting streaks.

I don't put much stock...ANY stock into that stat...just wanted to know. Andy used to be #3 in the league in +/-...lol

Outside of 3 guys, this team played like ass........or like they have every since the first quarter against Memphis.
