Game 81 | Cavaliers vs. Magic | April 11th, 2010 | 1:00 PM (EST)

I'm glad someone else see this! Why allow a team to beat you with waht they do best? I hope like heck we change our defensive strategy in the playoffs.

I hope the coaching staff also sees this. The only way to defend the Magic is to stay home at their shooters. Even if they play the pick and roll you don't pack in the paint. I think that's the risk the team have to take.

Howard sounds like a defeated man in the post-game... if there is such a thing as a "moral win," I guess this is what one looks like. Orlando should be vastly less confident right now than they were last night.

interesting

So...he doesn't think his team can beat the Cavs? Reverse psychology?

Dwight Howard is a moron. Saying he learned how we defend the pick and roll, yeah because EVERYONE played today, because you beat a Cavs team trying to win something.

Love Delonte's effort though

Dude. You've posted more than 100 times since the beginning of the game. Take a break.

I understand why Mike Brown did it, but after getting emotionally invested in the game (unlike Indy) it was quite frustrating to see us go pre-season at the end.

]Kindly [/B]STFU.

Is there such a thing.

 

[Andrew]

Do we play LBJ in the last game? Do we want to go in the playoffs with a losing skid?

This game gave me a lot of confidence in the Cavs about the ECFs. The only reason the Cavs lost was because of the same problems as last year - the Magic hit everything from 3-point range and Dwight was a monster. But if Shaq was preventing those kick-outs, this would have been a whole different ball game. Only things that need to be improved on are the transition defense (actually, the defense as a whole) and blowing leads.

I hope we play at full strength against Atlanta even for just a half.

Soooo... No LeBron, no Parker, no Shaq, and no important players down the stretch... and we lost by 6 to the Magic who had something to prove and gain from this game.

Nice.

I like to do a play by play....if you have a problem, I could care less.

Nice.

So parker is an important part of our team now...

I can take this loss. Sure the Cavs could of probably pulled it off if they kept Jamison and Williams in but again this is a meaningless game. I'd rather lose a meaningless game than lose a playoff game against them.
