Why was no one there to help Kyrie when he was double teamed like that?

And that should just about be a wrap. Pathetic effort

I must say Curry usually has a beautiful 3 point shot.

We look nothing like the team that played a week ago

Must be a rule that Irving has to make even the most basic of layups an 11 difficulty instead of just taking the points

Can we knock off the 'hero' ball please? No need for trying to take on two guys by yourself.

Why has Derrick Williams all but fallen off the map? He was pretty consistent from deep when he was covering for whoever got hurt during the season. No reason he couldn't get some minutes and produce.

Commits a foul but gets a free throw?

For God's sake, run an offense!

Ouch. Bad night.

Is this like last year where the first game or two is just a throwaway game, so we can see what they do and then actually gameplan for them?

Anyone that didnt think it wouldn't look just like this was fooling themselves. The difference in talent and scheme is stark. It's not a true rubber match anyways since they added durant

Is JR ever going to produce? That is a huge hole.

Let's hope so .... because this is flat out ugly.

we can only hope!

This game sucks. They will regroup for the next one. Next time they better not let GS dictate everything. Or they dont have a chance.

Lue really seems like he doesn't get it. At some point you need to go deeper on your bench and see if anything works. He's not doing all he can and using all the tools he has

You'll just complain how everyone on the bench sucks.

Well you don't have to be Red Auerbach to know what went wrong tonight.

17 turnovers?!? Lord have mercy!

The best thing about this game is it's gonna end in a little bit.

This was rough.

But if they were on the floor at least we'd know. There are guys on the bench that haven't seen the floor that were key in the finals last year.

17 turnovers and 13 assists compared to GS 26 assists to 4 turnovers

Kevin Durant is dating one of the cheerleaders.

Wow... Horrible game...

That, and lazy rebounding are the problems. I can handle the ISO because we can at least score from it. But when we give up all kinds of second chance points, give them the ball on Offense and give them open lanes to the hoop, we're going to get crushed.

I'm recording the rest of this and hittin' the hay. I hope we can do better next time!

Mike Brown is the problem. Lebron is 0-5 in the Finals when Brown coaches.

Total beat down. Cavs need to respond

I could not be any more confident the Cavs will win this series. They were always losing game 1. By 1 or 30 it doesn't matter.

Well...........the Cavs were losing and lead and the other whiners were out in full force. How surprising.

About the game:

--We gave up too many offensive rebounds

--We had too many turnovers

--LeBron and Kyrie had to do too much

--The rest did very little

--Disappointed w/TT's game tonight

--We were down two games to zero last year and lead and the other whiners were perhaps even more vocal. I don't think it's over yet, just as I didn't last year.

--I do admit it's going to be tough. They are very good. But, I think it's wrong to trash our team considering they are in the Finals. People freak out if someone criticizes the 1 and 15 Browns, but then turn around and slam the NBA Finalists Cavs. Weird as hell.

I know Brian Windhorst is happy.

What "other whiners" are you referring to? Most people said the same things you did.

quite simply, we got smacked. Durant is all the difference. It's too much to overcome IMO.

Turnovers, awful transition D, bad communication, etc.

We might get one at home, but that's it
