Need a new rule. If ANY of the guards shoot the ball w/o there being at least one pass in the half-court outside of last second and fast break situations, they need benched.

Neither Sexton, Garland, Clarkson, or Osman are good enough to keep fucking hoisting w/o passing the ball. It's pissing every single big man on the team off and rightfully so.

TT does not look to pass to Sexton lol. This juvenile shit gotta stop.

I've come to the conclusion that TT and Love decide they weren't going to let Sexton push it in transition because they didn't want to put the added stress on their body for this team. Both are just waiting till they get traded away.

 

[Rich]

The fuck is everyone bitching about TT for he's the best player on the court for the Cavs. Again. By far.

Letting Sexton shoot the ball 30+ times a game and letting these flunkies stand and watch would be a far more entertaining way to lose games. In the off chance we keep Beilein and we have decent players in 3 years, almost none of these dudes will be here anyways

don’t @ me

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Only 12 points down - a regular BARN-burner!

And 7 assists from our starting background! Is that a season-high for a half?

 

[cabs]

Just go with the Garland-Clarkson-KP-Nance-Henson line up until they foul out

I think the issue is Sexton doesn’t really look to pass unless he’s caught down low then he dump it off. I think they’re freezing him out as some type of punishment. You remember when Love stood in the paint until they called it? This juvenile.

 

[inliner311]

Love needs gone. Osman needs bench. I just wonder if those 2 changes may help Sexton.

Garland seems to push the pace with the bench unit. I think if Sexton and Garland get to run the offense their way, it will be a much better duo than what we have seen so far. If they don't constantly have to wait for TT or Love to survey who they want to give the ball to in transition and then force the ball down into the post for Love and TT to get their touches, I think Sexton and Garland figure out a way to co-exist on the floor together.

That's not saying much. He's a limited player who has too big of a role on offense. he should not be getting the ball as much as he does. he still gathers too slow and has hard hands. He has a very limited offense game. He has the ball in his hands way too much at the end of a possession. He's strictly a 2 foot leaper and he's slow.

 

[KilgoreTrout]

cedi and the turnovers

He is Dickfingers Caspii’s Doppelgänger.

 

[Alec]

Yeah, Sexton! Pass it to...uh...hmm...well...

pass it to who? If it isn’t a Love spot up 3 or a Osman corner 3, who the fuck cares?

Awesome.

Now do the rest of the team.

Well it's not like Sexton is some efficient scorer out here.

If we're gonna let a guy just jack up shots, then Clarkson's better at it then he is.

Thats what you typically do anyways with young teams, but that's only when you have a system to work off of and all the players are being held to the same standard.

In our world, Sexton is being told, and I quote "to keep shooting it".

It’s a marginal difference and not enough to win games we would otherwise lose. And at least Sexton has the potential to improve in some way shape or form. And in theory could improve his trade value, if we went that route. Clarkson could ride the bench for next 2 Months and it wouldn’t change his value 1 iota
