Quitter. Wanted to see a triple double. Kidding! What a man's world domination!
Looked better overall, less 3 point fails. He still has it and shows the loafers up. The defensive fails stand out for us.

Another garbage effort so far. Team has a lot of issues. Crowder is not a defensive guy, not sure how he got that reputation. We just have no execution on either end. I just don’t understand how Lue is still the coach

Well, I guess the good news is we finally held a team to under 60 points in the first half.

Shootin 25% as a team. Love looks the worst I can ever remember him looking his whole career. Lue has ruined him

Issues with the Cavs:
--There doesn't appear to be any coaching.
--There are no offensive sets other than maybe 2 times out of timeouts. See issue #1.
--There is no defensive effort. A team that has gone to the Finals 3 straight times doesn't know how to defend the pick and roll. See issue #1.
--Love has been atrocious. The culmination of 3 years of being marginalized. What I don't understand is why they never, NEVER, run the offense through Love. It would accomplish so many things. Slow the game down. Get Love to the line and in a rhythm. Etc. That would require coaching. See issue #1.
--I thought this team would be better defensively after trading Irving. Crowder is a scrub. Irving leads the league in steals. Crowder has Lue as a coach. Irving has Stevens. See issue #1.
--JR Smith is trash.
--Altman.
--The list can go on and on. I had no doubt the Cavs would lose today or at the minimum would not cover the -11.5. I bet the Hawks big. The Cavs should never be double digit favorites to anyone. Betting tip for everyone. Watch the lines. General public perception is the Cavs will win big against the dregs. Public hasn't caught up yet. If you want to make some easy money, watch the lines and bet against the Cavs.
LOL - The Rish will be upset with this news as well. KS just doesn't prioritize winning...

Yeah this team isn’t going anywhere, Thomas isn’t going to fix this. The issue starts Nd ends with Lue, he blows and should be fired tonight and bring in Mark Jackson. Guys like TT and JR have to be gone and bring some production back. I agree crowder blows, we got so fleeced on the trade it’s not even funny. This team isn’t going anywhere as constructed

We fired the wrong coach, if Lue was undermining Blatt as rumored it should have been him gone. Blatt had these guys playing defense. Highest payroll in nba and losing to a 1 win team

And the winner for dumbest post. Hey have lebron and still suck, despite him playing 40 min a game. So sorry, just because they have lebron don’t make them a contender. In fact they are closer to last. They lost to a 1 win team

Boston with the best record in the NBA currently, without hayward. While we are losing to 1 win teams missing 5 of their core players

LeBron has been to the finals the past 7yrs. You've predicted them to lose just about every playoff series since he's been back. One of you has earned the benefit of the doubt.

It's pretty clear basketball isn't something you know much about or follow. But Lebron currently has his team in 13th place out of 16....in the east...think about that. Boston has the best record in the NBA, Kyrie is leading the league in steals. So sorry, I don't believe lebron can get this team as constructed back to the finals. Lebron is still the best player in the league, but he literally has nothing else on this team worth a damn, and that includes Love. They squandered cap on horrid contracts for TT, JR and Shump, so they relegated themselves to ancient well past productive vets that have nothing left. While Lue refuses to play the young players he does have to try to develop them for later in the year. So I stand by my comment, this team, as constructed..will not go anywhere. IT4 doesn't fix anything, just another guy that needs the ball that don't play defense. Scoring he will, but you have to find a way to hide him on a defense for a team that doesn't play any at all. Its obvious that Brad Stevens should get a ton of credit for what he's done with scrubs like Crowder, as a team his schemes are amazing, he finally has a couple superstars to work with and its paying dividends. Lue can't coach, and its showing.

We only have 4 more losses that the Celtics who own the best record in the NBA and we are responsible for one of them. We only have 3 more than GSW the consensus best team of the decade that is now hitting their prime.
Yes we have not played well, even putrid at times but perspective is all in how you look at it. The season is young, talk to me 40-50 games from now.

The season is young, talk to me 40-50 games from now. we beat boston after they just witness a gruesome injury to their best player..then they lost the next one while Stevens figured it out. Once he did, they haven't lost yet. Yes its young in the season, but this team isn't going to get younger, they are going to be a few injuries, still have Lue as the coach. They are well behind where they normally are since lebron's return. People can say they aren't worried, but they should be unless some moves are made

Irving is a far superior player.

Irving is a far superior player. not far superior, but yeah it was more hyperbole. Hayward and Irving were supposed to be the cornerstones, the point was losing him in the first 5 minutes was devastating. One thing for sure, Stevens has found a way to unlock more of KI's potential that probably doesn't happen here. Irving is looking like a genius right now..maybe the world is flat

He seems to be playing harder. Be a star: Forget who you are. Still hate him not being here.
I can't see the Cavs making the playoffs, not with what i am seeing. LBJ might beat some folks all by himself. At some point stop tinkering, stop ignoring some real fails, and play ball!
You knew how; now you do not?

Any report on Love's "illness" the other night? I know he left in the third and they took him to the hospital for observation. Did they ever say what the problem was? He seems okay tonight.

Ok, here's how my day is going. Cavs up 13, I switch to the BG football game... it's 7-7. Switch back, Cavs down 2, halftime. Then switch back to the BG game, they're down 21-7.
