Now that they dont have Kyrie for the rest of the season?

3. Is just stupid. Why on earth would you post that?

Delly / Shump
Shump / JR
LeBron / JR
Thompson / Jones
Mozgod / Thompson

Need JR to catch fire... thats the only thing I can see happening.

Honestly they need to retool the offense. They might have to try Blatt's motion offense. The way the Warriors are defending the Cavs, there needs to be far more off the ball movement than we are currently getting. I would think about playing Marion more. But if we just say in ISO sets with guys standing around the three point line, this is going to be a short series and I really don't want to get swept.

Start Delly (obviously) and play tough, defensive-minded basketball, focusing on pounding the Warriors inside, outrebounding them, and finding open 3 shooters when possible.

Had to remove the 3rd option. Consider this a warning.

I apologize for the 3rd option and do not wish any injury upon anyone, but MAN the Warriors have been so damn lucky escaping any injury all season long and all postseason. Every other team has been plagued with injuries except them! Cavs without their 2nd and 3rd best player seems so unfair against a fully healthy Warriors team!

Yes because our starting PF David Lee missing the start of the season was so lucky (Actually it did mean Draymond Green got to start)
Because Bogut our best defender missing 20 games with a knee injury is lucky.
Because Ezeli our back up big missing 1 and half seasons is lucky.
Because Mo Speights our 3rd highest scorer missing all of the last playoff round against Houston is lucky.

We've had injuries just like anyone else. The difference is our FO built a team that was deep and could handle the injuries.

Yeah I'm pretty sure no one gives a ****. At least your starting unit is still healthy.

Regular season injuries lol. If Klay Thompson and Draymond Green were hurt you wouldn't be so hot.

This is rich... coming from someone who is taking joy in their signature, showing photos of players that Dellavedova has injured in the playoffs.... complaining about the Warriors playing injured teams in the playoffs. :lol:

Karma's a bitch ain't it?

Cleveland needs double did get assists from Lebron and Hot shooting from Smith Deladova and maybe vet resurgence from the old guys.

The warriors rested players and built great depth in order to make this playoff run.

If Green and Thompson get injured David Lee who was 18 pts 9rbs last year and Iggy 1st team all defense last season can step up.

Dellavadova injured Al Horford and Taj Gibson?

Bottom line is that anything can happen. Their defense improves with Delly in there instead of Irving. We know Lebron is going to dominate and do whatever takes to win. Cavs need to make Lebron a playmaker and have him NOT shoot from outside so much. Have him go to the paint each time and either kick it out to 3 point shooters like Smith, Shump, and Jones or feed Mosgov, TT, or take it himself. Its going to be incredible task for Lebron to win this series but if anyone can do it, then its Lebron

We need a hot JR game tomorrow. Would be huge if we could go up 2-1 against the Warriors and really put the pressure on them.

Dupp · Post #15 » by **Dupp** » Tue Jun 9, 2015 9:34 am

Yeah J R Swish to the rescue dw guys.

Hoopz Afrik · Post #16 » by **Hoopz Afrik** » Tue Jun 9, 2015 5:36 pm

We need Iman, JR, and JJ to hit their shots. Keep hounding Steph. Keep dominating both the offensive and defensive glass. Slow the pace down.....and most importantly, embrace the challenge.....

Win two more games. I like the W's fans coming here saying how deep their team is in comparison to the Cavs who have ZERO players outside of Lebron left in the starting lineup from opening night. Our second string PF/C, an undrafted player, some old guys, and three cast-offs plus Lebron are up 2-1 on the W's.

Yup. It's pretty ridiculous that the Warriors fans feel the need to come to the Cavs forum. They must feel pretty insecure. PS - This comment not directed at Warriors fans who came here just to say 'Good luck'

Jr needs to get going. I think he was monumental against bulls and hawks. With Jr on fire they got another floor spreader and would clear up the lanes
