That crap pisses me off. I know they were in the honeymoon phase after winning that ring but it pisses me off that LBJ got all of his guys (JR, TT) paid and now, for the most part, they are bums.

TT looks slow to me this yr, I wonder if he has been dealing with lingering issues all season.

So when Love comes back do you send Nance back to the bench or send Jr to the bench and go bigger?

Hill
Hood
Lebron
Love

You leave Nance in because TT has proven to be their liability.

Maybe the Cavs can cut JR and sign LeBron Jr. to take his place? He would have less baggage than Lonzo Ball.

??? TT wouldn't be starting regardless?

Its TD somewhat annoying, but they weren’t signing anyone else. Tristan got too much money, but at the time, he was needed. They don’t beat GSW without his switching. No way to know he would be this bad 2 years later.

JR, they had his bird rights and were already over the limit. Sign him or don’t, but he didn’t cost us anyone else...

I stated my preferred above. Love/Nance/LeBron/Smith/Hill.

I could see smith over hood. Hood gives a good spark off the bench with his ability to create his shot. 

They also both give the same inconsistent defensive effort.

TT was pretty much always a bum.

He had the ability not many 5s had in 2016 of being able to switch into Steph/Klay and holding his own. That was, at the time, invaluable.

Disagree. It's consistently shitty. 

When LBJ sits, our defense is horrendous. He should get DPOY based on tonights game alone, yikes.

Lebron.

LeBron and Jokic have been incredible tonight. LeBron just a bit more incredi

Yawn....

His defense is atrocious, and he's blaming everyone around him on Offense. We've got cranky Lebron tonight.

Cavs defense hasn’t been terrible since the trade. 11th in the league I think. It’s  just the new NBA, a good defensive effort is still getting 110 put on you.

Chauncey Billups ready to leave broadcast area and go help the Cavs on defense

Terrible defense to say the l

This team of reserves is so bad when they have to play extended minutes. It’s hilarious to watch.

JR Smith fucking blows.

Now in the 4th seed. Also sounds like one of the players was quoted as saying (post game) "the smiles are already gone." If so, that didn't take long.
