AND Lollard is out!!![]()
How the do you lose by 30 to a bottom dweller with James and Love on your team?![]()
since it's a West opponent, it's good for the Spurs if we end up tied with them tbh
They are like Cripples East, mail in games after losing a hyped up game.
They'll be fit to be tied Monday nite vs. the Suns.
tee, hee.
And Spurs won tonight. No barrels.
I'm tickled.
How in the did Crabbe become a legit rotation player when he has been Fathead's since college?![]()
Thank Christ. I couldn't a faced another nite of your rolling around---taking a fit at loss.
Lose to the Warriors yesterday after a million excuses of why you lost the finals, and then lose today by 29 points to a team without their best player...

It was ingg Christmas Thread.
this has got to be the worst loss of any Lebron team, tbh..getting your pushed in by Allen Crabbe![]()
Aaaand they're still a lock for a spot in june
The Cav's problem is they don't run any motion offense. It's almost always Lebron at the top of the key, hesitates which allows the defense to set, then tries to attack the paint with mixed results. The others on the team play a different style than he plays, and different from one another. Maybe that changes but Lebron is better if he can move and find his spots instead of acting like a PG. When Irving gets in shape again, he'll probably hog most of the possessions and it could be worse.
Did you not watch the 2014 NBA Finals? Getting your pushed in by Patty Mills.
Glenn/Bron ate crow
playing next to Timmy/Manu/Kawhi and coached by Pop, not this bunch of no-names ...

Losing by a wide margin in a RS game to a nobody is nothing compared to setting an NBA record for getting beat down in the Finals by old ass Tim Duncan and Manu ing Ginobili.
Remember though [old ass] means nothing when it's redeeming.
They should be lit higher than a Georgia pine by tomorrow innin'.
I'm actually sittin' & watchin' Suns games, start to finish. It's a lot of fun.
If they're going to lose a game I'd rather they lose like this than in double-overtime or some like that, especially in the midst of a four games-in-five nights stretch on the West Coast. Limit everyone's minutes, take your beating and move on.
Good point, but if the Spurs end up tied with the Cavs record-wise, I have a good feeling that means the Thunder likely will have leapfrogged the Spurs. No way they're winning two series without home court in the West.
cavs know no point chasing gsw for top seed
no point chasing spurs in case they meet the spurs in the finals
they settle for whatever in the east as long HCA...
same can be said about the spurs knowing they cant catch gsw, might as well aim for 2nd seed overall for HCA in case they make it to the finals
Spurs are only 3.5 games back Kent.
It means something. Had it been 26 year old Duncan, the margin would have been 25 a game.
I watched this game......and I see why Portland beat their ass. The Cavs got away with two goal tends early in the game. Terry Stotts was losing his mind. There was also a play where Tim Frazier got hit directly in the ing jaw on a drive to the paint where he was there on time for an an overt offensive foul by James.
The Blazers shut down the LeBron post ups. James also is allowed to get away with the most blatant offensive fouls in the NBA. Granted, their entire team defense stats are skewed because of the fouls they're allowed to commit as a team which leads to the obvious; they aren't a great defensive team. This game was very sad because despite the Blazers overwhelming the out of the opponent, they still received bull calls. shake my head.
Portland literally let LeBron shoot all night and of course he miss..and that's their offense. There is no way they were winning that game.
CJ Mc got to the rim at will. The Blazers were able to keep the pace high all game attacking relentlessly. They played with energy. Allen Crabbe managed to shoot well through the course. He was making shots off of backdoor cuts and off the Cavalier's various turnovers and horrible shot selection.
The Portland's second unit destroyed the Cavaliers bench third stringers. A lineup of Tristan Thompson, Varejao, jefferson, williams. Just cancer all over in that lineup. The Portland trailblazers played hard enough to keep to officials out of the game and committed no turnovers by ending the first half up 29 points.
In conclusion, everyone needs to needs recovery from their delusion these past two years of believing that the Cavs were actually a contending team. The NBA is ting themselves because of the fact that LeBron is actually on a major decline and they have to rig his games for the Cavs to look good. The narrative is to downplay all their losses as an excuse for the downright awful quality of basketball.
Warriors and Spurs for the NBA finals. That's it.
Do you understand how the NBA works?
