As I said, he simply doesn't care as much as he did last year. It's almost as if he knows something we don't. I know his body language towards JJ is pretty bad. It's obvious he doesn't like JJ very much. JJ is soft.

This team has absolutely ZERO heart


This current team as constructed has no team identity. Last year we were a defensive team but with Shaq and AP in the starting lineup, we no longer covet that defensive swag. We should go back to our original starting lineup from last year. Since MB doesn't know how to utilize Shaq, we shouldn't force feed him because he grinds the game to a halt. AP has been reduced to a defensive swing man, corner shooter type player. Before the season started all I heard about how it was great to have a guy that can score off of curls but I have yet to see ONE CURL PLAY involving AP. MB doesn't know how to utilize the talent on this team (big surprise their).

TAKE HICKSON OUT THE STARTING LINEUP! He can't play defense, finish at the rim, and MB keeps a short leash on him. So what's the point of starting him? I think Ferry is forcing MB to play him starting minutes inorder to "up" his trade value...


Yea he is even worse off the bench. So we can package a pick with him and an expiring to get some REAL talent on this team, I would be pretty happy. At this point, maybe besides Boobie and Moon, everyone is playing worse than expected.


Yeah a deal can't come soon enough honestly. This isn't a good situation for Hickson, he is an offensive minded player and Brown is not a developmental type coach.

He looks "pissed" and passive towards everyone. Especially Mo Williams, who makes some tough shots down the stretch against the Sixers. It seems to always be just about LeBron for LeBron now. He never used to be like that

Guys, why didn't Mike Brown not make it a free throw contest at the end? I know our announcers were surprised by that.

Because it's Mike Brown. He's a freaking idiot.

Mo has become lazy on defense. Hickson can't play defense, can't catch, and can't finish. Shaq is slow and ineffective. Z is even slower and is still soft.

LeBron only likes 4 players on this team and it's evident through his body language; West, Gibson, Moon, and AV. I honestly believe that LeBron is sick and tired of being EVERYTHING on both ends of the floor for this organization. This team is way too dependent upon him to do EVERYTHING. Without him, we wouldn't be competitive. He wants more talent on this team. LeBron was very upset that Ferry couldn't get the job done on several moves (Artest, Ariza, etc). He even voiced his disapproval in some interviews after some free agents went to other teams.

Had the Cavs been able to get a tad closer he probably would have. But IMO there is no point when you are down by 5-7 and can't get a stop at all.

Because that'd actually be a smart decision, if you don't watch many Cavs games you might not know this - but MB is averse to making smart decisions. It's sad but unfortunately it's true.

LeBron, Mo, Shaq, Gibson, and Mike Brown took this game off. I expect the Cavs to win against PHX.

no they didnt take this game off they just got beat it happens during a 82 game nba season.you just bounce back and try to win the next one

Of course I'm going to bash LeBron. If he's playing with his %50, if he can't lead his team to wins against a Dirk-less Mavs, Bulls, Bobcats, Grizzlies etc. I'm going to bash the guy who's supposed to be bigger than the whole franchise.


It's tough to watch a year getting wasted while your ultrasuper talented basketball player is not giving his best.

Two things that are driving me crazy: 1-Almost same team won 66 games last season. 2-Kobe is winning games with 2 fingers, LeBron ain't even human but he can't beat mediocre teams.
