Everything ECF 2016

People keep talking about our defense, but we need to score at an above average rate. DeMar has done that exactly twice in 16 playoff games. Lowry isn't scoring against this team. We need to move the ball and generate good shots for guys like Ross and Carroll. It's just not happening without that.

We did generate good open shots for those guys but, they couldnt make them.

[Miekenstien]

yep. that is it. hopefully they don't play like they are done at home and maybe win one of two. be nicer to end the season in cleveland.

good year. we had nothing left after the 14 games to get here. 2nd best in the east behind a monster of a team. i will feel better about the potential sweep if the cavs become champs or if they sweep the finals too.

lets get scouting the draft and get a difference maker at 9.

No superstar has ever had an easier path to Finals than LeBron: Detroit was too young, Atl/Toronto have no stars, DWade lost Bosh&Whiteside.

DD did his part. Lowry has an average game were in this game. Stop trying to blame the only guy who shot decently.

"The only guy".

DeMar had 22 points on 21 shooting possessions.

Ross had 11 points on 11 shooting possessions.

Carroll had 7 points on 7 shooting possessions.

JJ had 11 on 8 shooting possessions.

CoJo had 11 on 10 shooting possessions.

Patterson had 6 on 5 shooting possessions.

Biyombo had 3 on 3 shooting possessions.

You know offense can generate an open look at the rim too? Maybe we can try that. I don't know. Open Layup maybe?

[The Great One]

LeBron James is ridiculous though. I don't think he played all that well and he still finished with a triple double.

Not enough talent or spacing. And Kyle and demar seem satisfied to take their iso 3 and fadeaway long 2 respectively.

[A.I]

When you got an below average 3 point shooting SG and a C that provides zero spacing, its kind of hard to get open looks in the paint.

DD 8-18

Ross 4-10

Carroll 2-6

James was good

Cory was good

2pat was good

Ross 4-10

Carroll 2-6

James was good

Cory was good

2pat was good

You do realize that 3 point shots are worth more than 2 point shots? So Ross' 4/10 is worth about the same as DeMar's 8/18?

Vince Carter analyzing the game on NBA TV right now. This team could use a prime Vince right about now.

Leaders lead. It's a star-driven league. Their stars have been way better than ours.

Because they are way better than us.

Lebron's average game is a career game for one of our stars. Let's be honest. Still...You don't throw away stars.

The Cavs payroll is the highest in the league. We're in the bottom half of the league in terms of Payroll.

Keep positive. The experience is worth it. Let's hope JV experiences this. Gotta get to the East Finals to get to the Finals.....

Funny how this core and this coach brought us here....Even without JV after game 3 in the second round.

First time we lost two games in a row in the Playoffs.

Oh and It's Lebron.

You realize he went 2-6 from 3. With all of them wide open.

I agree that their stars are way better than ours.

That's why I don't want to double down on our stars and sign DeMar to the max.
