The baseline 3 point shooting is the final straw... The guy haunts me like no other..
His 1 three point attempt per game in the postseason is the final straw? :chuckles: Keep in mind that he isn't running out to the baseline to shoot 3's on his own...Mike Brown/Kuester want him there on that play. Going back to that play 3 times in the second half in game 3 wasnt his idea, he's just following orders....so blame the coaches. They should have been doing the pick & pop that has worked all year. Regardless, his 6 three attempts in this series are irrelevant to the fact we are down 3-2.
I'm sure this is irrelevant as well, but the guy that haunts you continues to have the best +/- numbers by a large margin. We have consistantly played better with him on the floor than any other player.

What amazes me is that a few days ago you said this -
Seriously, the Mo Williams bashing is just ridiculous... Some of the stuff that was in that game thread was uncalled for and just stupid...
The guy has been there for the Cavs all season, and has busted his ass in both games, trying to do little things to help the team in any way possible... He's not forcing things in a selfish manner like Hughes used to do... He knows this team needs his scoring, and he's simply missing wide open shots and is trying to get some buckets to go down to help the squad... At no point have I thought Mo's play was selfish in any of these games..
I have no issues with Mo because you can tell he's giving it everything he's got, but the results aren't there.... That emotion he showed after the game shows just how much he cares...
Mo got this pansy ass sympathy post from you when he was completely underperforming and was probably the biggest factor in us losing game 1. If that was Z you would have been relentlessly verbally sodomizing him on this board. Z is avaraging a double-double and is matched up against the DPOY who is the most athletic physical freak in the NBA(not named Lebron). Until last night, our All-Star PG has shot like garbage against Orlando's backup pg. Yet, Z haunts you? Talk about "uncalled for and stupid"...
