The offense down the stretch was very stagnant and predictable, doesn't bode well for playoff basketball but i guess we'll see if Jb has anything up his sleeve.Iwasawitness wrote:We have now beaten Dallas, Boston and Minnesota in these stretch of games, while losing to the Knicks (missing pretty much their entire team), Chicago, and Atlanta.
This has been a very confusing stretch of games for Cleveland. I’m happy we’re beating the top teams but there’s still glaring issues that concern me.

Hopefully he puts it more together before April or we'll see what he looks like when Mitchell and Mobley get back.

Yeah, i watched the final 6 minutes of regulation and all of OT. I'm just saying yes, let's give him his flowers BUT if we wanna be successful in the playoffs the other 2 areas will need to be cleaned up.jbk1234 wrote:JujitsuFlip wrote:I know scoring wise it is Garland's first game of 30+ since he returned and only his 3rd of the season but I would say 6 turnovers on 8 assists and 2 of 10 from deep isn't great.

You don't get credit for an assist on free throws and Garland is primarily responsible for Allen's free throws. Also, McDaniels is great wing defender. There are maybe a handful of guards in the NBA who can successfully run a PNR against McDaniels and Gobert.
