[IT IS WHAT IT IS]

Spo was the heat coach why before Bron got there

no doubt but my point is, when he got all those stars, he struggled. He didn't win chips or was 'proven' per se before the big 3 showed up, and when they did he struggled at first, but ultimately they made 4 straight finals because Miami management was patient. This stuff definitely takes time, the only coaches I know of who walked right in and got things poppin' were Pop, Doc and Jax...

Yeah but you have to remember Spo is an extension of Riley

LeBron James is excellent at boxing out his coach from the huddle

David Blatt did his best David Blaine impersonation on the Cavaliers sideline Wednesday night. He disappeared, get it? Poor guy is just trying to lead the NBA's most talented roster, but when you have LeBron James doing all the talking it's hard to get a word in edgewise.

Pat Riley.

The chain of command in Miami was strong. Cleveland as an organization sucks in comparison.

If I'm not mistaken, Kevin Love has not truly committed to Cleveland? If that is the case, then I don't see this coach lasting too long. They'll get into the play-offs regardless if he is coaching or not. LB is going to coach them into the play-offs.

Pat Riley wasn't calling plays and making in game adjustments.

Why are these bums constantly on the front page?

 

[l9ikjam]

True, just like Lebron is pulling his ring card now, Pat pulled his then. He kept Lebron in line. Otherwise, he will try to coach both on the floor and off.

When Lebron says he knows how to win in the NBA, he is actually firing shots at both his coach and teammates.

The main problem I witnessed wasn't between Lebron and Blatt, it was Irving and Blatt. It seems like he can't even get Irving in line. Lebron had to do that.

If any NBA superstar can be a player-coach, it's Lebron.

Making lebron the leader of your team is just like having a blind man teach a teenager how to drive.

 

[Mask]

Blatt and Irving are starting to understand each other...

 

[Mask]

Lebron shoot way too many fucking 3's

 

[gene cisco]

I never counted on Cavs making every fucking game a drama....

 

[Mask]

Cavs gotta keep they're best defensive lineup out there...

 

[IT IS WHAT IT IS]

Damn... now they got Andre Miller roasting Jokers... Ole ass Andre Miller...

 

[IT IS WHAT IT IS]

LeBron is missing the fuck out of South Beach at this point, he must be!! Shit, Waiters takes a 3 on a 3 on 2 break?!

 

[BDR]

I wish Arison dumb ass didn't amnesty Miller

Him and Ray use to stretch ninjas out properly on that 3 line

 

[D-TOWN REP]

Damn... now they got Andre Miller roasting Jokers... Ole ass Andre Miller...

Man I don't know how he does it but Andre Miller old ass still can bust your ass

I remember a couple years back he put 50 on the Mavs

 

[gene cisco]

Cleveland must be located on an Native American burial ground. Some old Poltergeist fuckery.

 

[RoadRage]

The Cavs are very immature doing shit like sulking when they don't get calls and compounding mistakes by hanging their heads low after making a poor play..
Then they get frustrated and tries to get back in games by hitting home runs instead of fighting their way back into games.. When one player does it, it becomes contagious, it gets in their heads making them feel that they are not good enough instead of them realizing that they are not playing smart enough..

 

[largebillsonlyplease]

John Wall>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

[RoadRage]

You can tell the emotional pulse of a team by their hustle, getting to lose 50/50 balls, free throws and three point shots and in each time the Cavs had a chance to get close, their emotional pulse failed them.. Not only are they playing super tight, but their lack of confidence is giving the opponents a shot in the arm of pure adrenaline, compounding issues even more..

 

[RoadRage]

John Wall>>>>>>>>>>>>

Irving mentally is where Wall was 2 years ago, great individual talent way too emotional and doesn't know how to play to the speed of the game..
I give you a perfect example of his immaturity, Irving drove to the paint in the 3rd quarter, Cavs down by 7, KI drives to the paint collapsing the paint, Miller was wide open at the three, but instead KI passes it last second to James who taps it out to Miller who misses the shot badly... Well to the normal eye, it looked as if Miller fucked up, but in reality, Irving inability to hit the open man caused Miller to get frustrated to the point that he didn't expect the ball, and when he shot, he wasn't mentally ready..
Small things like this can frustrate jump shooter, and if they becomes frustrated enough,defenses will pick up on it, forcing them to hit that outside shot, by packing the paint.

 

[D-TOWN REP]

If I see one more game where Kyrie only got 2 assist

Ole Mind Reading Ass! GTFOH!

You would have been okay with Kyrie just making a late pass on offense that lead to a difficult shot for Miller.

Im a baller and know shit based on situations I was in, plus I know Miller's game and body language and never seen him miss such a wide open shot like that with out it being a reason for it.
Like I said before, three point shooting comes from confidence, thats why its easy to hit them when you are up by 15 but hard as hell hitting that same shot with the game on the line..
The Cavs are playing as if every possession is a last 2nd game 7 shot, while their opponents are shooting as if it was a practice session..

 

[RoadRage]

Im saying that the proper move was passing to the open Miller on the wing, Irving instead tried to attack the teeth of the defense, got caught with his hand in the cookie jar, and tried to bail out by passing to the first player he could which was LeBron who was way too close to him and out of position..
James saw what I saw, and immediately taped the ball out to Miller who was still upset about Irving poor decision than his head wasn't there for the shot.
Yes he was sulking and shouldn't have been, but thats what poor decisions can do to a shooter..

 

[RoadRage]

Three point shots should be shots should be set up and shot in a rhythm not out of frustration, and due to trying to jump start the offense with short cut home runs.. This is what the Cavs need to understand if they want to have the chance of being a good ball club.

 

[IT IS WHAT IT IS]

Man I don't know how he does it but Andre Miller old ass still can bust your ass

I remember a couple years back he put 50 on the Mavs

Dude him and Chris Paul are the last of the 'quiet storm' guards! The ones that will slowly rock your ass to sleep with fundamentals. Smooth Jazz type Dudes!

 

[gene cisco]

Tristan Thompson should have jumped on that $48 million the Cavs offered.

He'll be lucky to get 30 mill at this point... Some of these Dudes agents are really fucking up their earnings man...
