    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    JR is washed and I think Love is legitimately hurt. But yeah, not sure how they'd beat the Raptors.

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    Honestly, I don't ever want to see him taking a shot from outside of 6 feet.

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    Defense isn't there tonight and obviously the shot-making isn't either. I don't like their chances going forward if they lose tonight. Seems like LeBron could score 50 and they'd still lose.

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    Kyle Korver is the only reason this series wasn't a sweep. Not even sure who the third-best player on the team has been.

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    One garbage role player after another stepping up while Oladipo disappears. Tonight it's Turner. Why don't the Cavs have anyone like that? And why does Ty Lue wait until the other team has closed the entire deficit before calling timeout? Use your timeouts to stop runs. Come on.

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    The Cavs look less like dog shit tonight, but Ty Lue has played LeBron every minute thus far. All but guarantees he'll be exhausted by the time the 4th quarter starts. Better hope the game's over by then.

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    LeBron is going to need to get 35+ for us to win games in this series. Unfortunately, that's another area where Ty Lue is killing us. He played LeBron the entire second half tonight. Maybe if the guy was able to take a two-minute breather he could've driven to the hoop instead of settling for...

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    Smith scored 8 points on 3/11 shooting in 34 minutes. Osman couldn't have done that? And without watching Bogdanovic drive by him standing still with two minutes left? The good news for the Cavs is that I can't see Bogdanovic shooting 78% from 3 and scoring 30 points two games in a row. The...

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    What is Lue doing with these lineups? Why are Hood and Clarkson getting minutes over Osman? Or JR, for that matter. JR is washed. At least Osman gives effort on defense.

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    Honestly it depends on the matchup and whether we need offense or defense. In general, though, I would just surround LeBron with four shooters (making sure one is a rebounder). Right now it looks like the best options are JR, Korver, Love (or Nance if Love is hurt), and I guess Hill(??). Every...

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    Oh wait, I do. It's because Ty Lue has no idea what the hell he's doing.

    George Hill fucking sucks. I don't know how he's on the court/how he was given an iso possession with 35 seconds left.

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    Kyle Korver is also playing out of his mind. Hitting shots, being disruptive on defense. Remind me again why he played less than five minutes in game one?

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    This series looks like it's going to go a lot like last year's series against Indiana. The Cavs are only up 12 after a monster LeBron performance and Oladipo spending most of the half on the bench. Indiana is well coached, tries on defense, and exploits mistakes. I'm confident that the Cavs can...

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    Yes, the offense had problems because Lue put Jeff Green out there with LeBron. Surround LeBron with four shooters. It's unstoppable. Philadelphia is the only Eastern Conference team that the Cavs won't be able to beat just by outscoring them. I guess my dream of ever involving Kevin Love in...

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    Honestly not sure how JR still gets minutes on this team. I would much rather have Hood, Osman, or Korver out there at any given time.

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    It might take a 2007 playoffs-level effort from LeBron to salvage this season. This team sucks.
  18. BuckeyeMafia

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    I like Simmons, I like Embiid, and I like the city. And if it comes down to the 6ers or Lakers, I'll take Philly 11 times out of 10.

    Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

    Irving had a lot less to worry about in Cleveland. I'm guessing his body responds differently to carrying the entire load. What would we do about Love in that instance? Keep him and try to make the playoffs next year (should be doable) or trade him? Personally, if LeBron does leave (I expect he...

    Some people claim that Irving would've sat out the first five months of the season to remove the screws in his knee and others say he'd be out now. So which is it?
