Game 72 | Suns @ Cavs | Emergency Thread

[Sir'Dom Pointer]

I agree but if they win games and TT doesn’t start then I can live with it. If he starts getting big mins and clearly still sucks then I’ll be pissed.

when a team makes a ridiculously unprofessional decision I become pisses. You can wait, I'm there.

It's not about whether we win games now. As we are currently constructed and with Tt playing minutes we ain't winning shit. Zizic might have the ability to raise our ceiling a bit and maybe give us an edge we had no idea was even there.

We are acticely decide to be worse, how fucked up is that? And why should we be ok with that decision?

Just saying...

I do hope something changes.

So first game back for three players, two of the three who haven’t played with Love yet, and they’re just supposed to be a smooth, fine tuned machine in the 1st quarter of a 48 minute game or its doomsday/same old shit?

Did I say it was doomsday? My criticisms have been:

-Lackadaisical defense
-Too many Jeff fucking Green post ups (a play they AREN'T going to utilize when it matters)
-Too much one on one play (that's basically all Clarkson was doing out there)

Definitely an easier thing to do when you don't have 5 guys out with injury. Which hasn't really been the case since after the all star break.

Hopefully, after a couple of games back to see the difference between Nance/Zicic vs. TT, LeBron/Rich Paul give their full blessing to bench TT

Maybe we will see Zizic in the 2nd half with Green out. Play Love and Nance at PF, rotate TT and Zizic at Center.

Some notes:
- Love and JR, 4-5 from three; rest of team, 1-11
- Love, Bron, and Clarkgod in double figures
- Hill, 2 pts and an assist, but a team-high +22
- We are killing them on the boards; Nancegod with 6, Love with 5
- Hood a team-worst -12 (by far)

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Maybe we will see Zizic in the 2nd half with Green out. Play Love and Nance at PF, rotate TT and Zizic at Center.

What happened to Green?

Defense is going to be lackadaisical. Getting upset over it is the definition of insanity at this point. It's unfortunate, but it's not changing. They've been decent.

I disagree re: Green. I can definitely see him getting those types of opportunities in the postseason - coaching staff and players need to see if he can be effective there. As a potential defensive x-factor, he may be on the court with teams trying to hide smaller players on him defensively.

Clarkson is going to be an aggressive player with the ball in his hands. He's been very effective tonight. Overall, I think the ball is moving pretty well and guys are getting a lot of good looks. Do you not think so?

Nance starting the 2nd half (Green is sick). Good sign.

 

[InBoobieWeTrust]

Disagree all you want, @InBoobieWeTrust, they're playing like a bunch of assholes right now.

Annnnddd 8-10 minutes of game time later... lol

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Zizic is just a better basketball player than TT. Why is TT playing ahead of him?

 

[inliner311]

What happened to Green?

They said he is sick and will be out for the rest of the game.

Nance is a beast dunking

 

[Kiddo]

Nance is 10 times better than Tt

 

[benchplayer]

they should sit lebron, no need to risk injury for the suns

 

[red.]

Yeah, nance going to be starting. I can’t see how they go to TT.

 

[Ohio]

I just can't get enough of Nance. Dude is fucking good. I can't wait to see how this team looks fully healthy, with him in the starting lineup.
