[2 For The Brew]

Garland fouls out.

 

[Jake]

An all time low. Cavs weren't legit 50 game winners anyhow. Too many wins against depleted teams made us think we were better than we are. Paper tigers. What next?

 

[kevincleveland]

The Brunson head snap successful yet again

 

[Pierre Pan]

What a stupid foul by DG…granted he scored a few in the 4th but way too May fouls, bad passes , stupid turnovers

 

[nime]

These has to be historical bad for us right?

Direct results of the blitzing strategy which continued again tonight

 

[redscoon]

Long term, this is a blessing. JB is a bottom 5 coach in the league. This roster has major flaws. Advancing a round probably guarantees another season of status quo and banking on organic growth from young guys while ignoring the huge ref flags that have popped up everywhere.

 

[CavzAddict]

Bye Garland. Thanks a lot for your turnovers.

 

[Cavs12]

Good thing JBB can yell at refs

Really important skill

But can he? How do you not get Td up in the first quarter after we come out with no fire?

 

[godfather]

It’s not a rivalry. We were a beat down

 

[Harlie Rider]

The Mitchell trade looking like a disaster. We threw away our flexibility and our future and now we’re stuck with a mediocre team and no way to improve

Fantasies about Mobley magically becoming Giannis don’t help

But Mitchell has a big War - some think that makes the trade just great - We gave up way to much - hands down

 

[The Wizard of Moz]

at least we have the Browns.

That team sucks even more somehow

 

[Stark]

This roster was designed to not have a third big man.

We don't have a third big man at all. Mobley is paper thin and Allen is getting sonned out there.

Where's the enforcer at? Lopez? Wade?

Our roster construction is extremely flawed and getting exploited.

 

[Pierre Pan]

I guess they could advance the ball

They took a second timeout

 

[Rich]

This blitzing Brunson thing is right on par with LeBron on Rafer Alston type of stuff.

Its fine to try it out but once you can clearly see, CLEARLY see the Knicks have the answer, you stop.

The Knicks are playing a non-spacing big. What the fuck is wrong with switching it, and if Brunson beats his man, Allen challenges at the rim?


This fucking blitzing over and over and over again is directly leading to at least half of these offensive rebounds.

Like, Mobley can't both stop Barrett at the rim all alone AND keep Robinson off the boards.
