I don’t know what to type, I will start with I cannot imagine the pain felt on all of Cleveland right now. It hurts me and a lot of you know I am not from Cleveland and I have not been a fan of this franchise since my existence so I can only imagine that dreadful feeling of disappointment you life-longers are feeling right now.
I will not make excuses, and I know the team won’t. This was a crazy season and it was all for naught in the grand scheme of things. This series, in particular, was full of highs and lows and it was still up in the air.
Low attrition was the demise of this team, there were not enough bodies putting on the wine and gold. To win, it’s a lot about luck and health as it is talent. Once Love and then Irving went out, the odds were not in their favor and yet they battled. There was hope they could pull this whole thing off and that to me is the highlight of this lowlight of an outcome. Sure I am disappointed as you are, sure I hated to see the opponent celebrating in Cleveland, but I know its not the end.
This is a make or miss league, I do not blame any one particular player or one particular incident that caused this season’s demise. All I know is this will ultimately make this team stronger and I expect greatness moving forward.
Should have known the rain making me lose signal and having to watch the first half in low def an omen. I am going to do a boycott of sports media for awhile and I am going to take a breather from here as well. I know it’s more than the Cavs here on this forum but I just need to take a step back and remove myself for awhile. I will for sure be back for the summer league and then I may be able to more adequately dissect the season that was then.
Thanks everyone for welcoming me back, thanks for the love and thanks to the Cleveland Cavaliers for one hell of a season that just feel a tad short. I expect the Cavaliers to be celebrating a championship in Cleveland soon enough.
