Cavs were equipped to handle a team like the Pacers and couldn’t. Pacers shots are falling…they are deep…this may be their advantage. Everyone running a 6 or 7 man rotation and getting hurt….meanwhile Pacers running 10 players and they all young.
Running is the key don't try to stop the pacers running
Just get them lil niggas in foul trouble and make them guard

Cavs need to blow it up
 


Draymond was right barring injury of course. I would’ve picked y’all over any teams remaining.


That hoe still out there giving up 30 point triple doubles to Julius randle he ain't off the hook and he writing checks knowing we'll praise a hof player for scoring 18 points one time

This the thing
Well couple things

1 kuminga been scoring and it hasn't amount to shit
Do y'all get it now?
If curry and butler go 30 for 30 twice, that 2 wins every time in every series.

2. Everyone gets to kinda show up
And get the credit when they do for one game

This team is down 1 person they can't win 1 more game?
The wolves ain't good and with Steph we're 3-1 against the wolves this year
.like be for real
 
Thunder are a beast defensively….i think whoever they face is food for them.
Im not impressed
I'm jaded tho cause we beat them and won the season series and we were ass for half the year
So I just don't see it. The depth is the key
They got it but they also play pussy ball
Grifting
Dort is a thug
Like not likeable at all
 
I'm not gonna shit on the Cavs players or coaching staff. There is enough of that going on in here already. What about the front office tho :puzzled:

As a 76er fans, I know all about regular season heroes/playoff frauds. A 55+ win reg season means season ticket holders are happy. As long as they're happy and the organization is making money, the owners don't really care about championships.

I think there front office constructed a solid well together team; they just didnt get it done on the court; thats on the players at the end of the day...

I think the 2nd round is their ceiling.

Even during the season when the talking heads where saying they were on pace for 65 wins. I still saw them as a 1st/2nd round exit.

Again though thats on the players; its not like the GM put a bad team together or players who cant play; they have the pieces to win and go further but they didnt and dont; ive never been a fan of Mitchell but im not sure why they dont go further...
 
Dude just isn't the type of player to get a team over the hump no matter if it's on the westside or eastside.

At some point,people gotta start looking at Spider,why he hasn't gone to the conference finals...

I mean….has he ever had a team good enough to do so? I think this year injury bug hit them. Garland was never right. Spida got hurt. I’d trade Allen and make Mobley my 5. Maybe ship him to Lakers.

I'll never understood,how they gave Allen and D. Gizzle their money when one is strictly a defensive player who once in awhile have a good offensive game while the other is always hurt and chokes all the time,especially when it matters.


As,for Mobley;the organization keep holding him back. I thought organization should have given the keys to Mobley instead of D. Gizzle when he got drafted.


When,Mobley came out of college everyone had him being a KG clone because he has the same body type and has a better three-point range than KG. You see flashes but he doesn't get the ball often because Spider and D. Gizzle has the ball most of the time.


I do see them trading Allen or Garland,maybe both during the off-season.

I think it's time for them to promote Emoni Bates to Garland's position...imo


I mean everyone was saying the cavs were the best team and had them in the finals vs OKC which myself included thought and was hoping for that kind of matchup.

But i don't see nothing changing for the cavs next year.

This season for them went down the drain because they cared more about making D. Gizzle happy instead of the playoffs not being able to get the job done.


Fixed for accuracy.....

I used to be in this sixers group, people were arguing with me saying the sixers should trade maxey for spida which I disagreed with because they felt spida would help embiid get to the finals but he can't even get out the second round being the top seed on the cavs.

The NBA officially implemented an 82-game schedule in the 1967-68 season. A significant reason for this was the expansion of two NBA teams, the San Diego Rockets and the Seattle SuperSonics. Before that, the NBA's regular season games varied between 66 and 80 games played.
I'm wondering when they're gonna shorten the regular season games because it's only a matter of time with all these injuries happening to superstar players.

I'll take Maxey over Spider in a heartbeat...That boy Maxey got a heart of a lion and would do everything in his power to get out of the second round.

Problem is the fact embiid holding him back though because I'm hoping and wishing he gets traded for a player that isn't injury prone and don't mind playing back to backs.

I'm glad they kept maxey and I was right about spida because even him getting traded from the jazz, it's still the same results with him.
