The way this game is being called v. how the Nets game was (not) called couldn't be more different.

Cavs don't have a rebounding advantage against this team. They have to take good shots.

Cavs are settling for bad shots.

This team has major major problems. Jr Smith and Shumpert contribute nothing. TT looks disinterested. IT wont fix all this. The offense looks very vanilla.

I mean we don't have a healthy PG right now.

A team with this much "talent" should not be losing to a mediocre non contender. Not like this. I dont know whats going on with this team but it looks like a mix of effort and apathy. A lot of little stuff that these guys are not doing and a lot of open shots missed for some reason but the main problem is defense and i dont know what a point would change about the defense.

The effort sucks. I agree. Although LBJ isn't exactly leading by example out there. I just think that you see that with players that play into June three years in a row - particularly at the beginning of the season. Add to that the fact both starting & back up PGs are out, and everyone has to work harder. They're not.

A month from know, I'll be concerned.

As strange as this may sound, I feel like it’s so much easier to make a comeback against the Pelicans than it is against teams like the Bulls, Nets, Magic because they all have stronger 3 point shooting.

Shots finally falling for Love ,ball movement better with this line up LBJ Shump J.R. Love &TT

I love how every time there's two of our players who should help on D, and neither one does, LBJ looks over at the other guy like you know I'm not helping.

Crowder is 1-5 for 3 points. He can't play front court against a line up this big. He's -8.

We're getting killed on the boards. Lue has to get either Love or TT in the game.

Frye needs to foul more. Particularly before the shot.

Get Osman and Zizic out there.

Green & Crowder played their worst games as Cavs tonight.

Cavs are the latest team to find out, that signing Jeff green doesn't make your team better

And JR Smith continues his streak of sucking in consecutive games.

I honestly can’t remember the last time he had a good game.
