Their trash they look good against us cmon foh



They drafted a 20 year old that looks like the second coming of KG.


Yea anyone who thinks Cavs are trash are stuck in 2020 and don't understand who the hell Evan Mobley is. Their future is set in stone and their potential is unlimited based on him and their strong pieces they have built around him + mad draft picks. Some fans be smoking that K2 or those e-pens you get from habibi. They need to stop.

This one of those games that the other team just gets hot and what can you do? Rubio doesn't even shoot and this is the night he's having but I'm more concerned with how we play offense. All preseason a ton a ball movement. Once the season starts everybody, including guards with the ability to score 20 a night if you let them steady getting the ball to Julius, Julius bringing the ball upcourt.

His assists dont even matter to me anymore because he shouldn't be the one getting them IMO, he should be finishing them and all we wanna do is iso Randle and turn him into a PG. Even this game, our best run was when he sat down and the youngins came in. There was no directive to get Julius the ball and the pace went up, guys started letting loose..

I hate this offense and our defense isn't good enough anymore to play at this slow pace. It's boring to watch. This team bores me.

Cavs dropped 124 points for FREE with 1 minute left in the game and we don't have Kemba playing, all that weak ass slander for nothing but to be wrong. Kemba haters got their wish but this team OVERALL can't defend the 3pt shot. this is the worst we've done all season against the 3pt. Losers. Go to bed feeling dumb. Either we ship Quickley/Burks or we ship Kemba/Fournier having all 4 is ridiculous and unnecessary redundant depth. No one is really saying anything insightful when they trash Fournier/Walker for defense. We needed a perimeter defender and the only hope we have is our rookies in Grimes and McBride, which Thibs seems stubborn on even giving them honest burn. Randle/Robinson/Rose all get cooked defensive on the 3pt line.

Maybe we're in a slump defensively. Cavs are a SERIOUS team, as other mentions in the thread. They can play inside and out, have 3 guards who can generate offense consistently. Losing at home is just weak af and it truly looks like we'll be a treadmill team with braindead fans who want to put the blame on a guy we basically got for free. Straight wyln. This franchise will never carry themselves as contenders. Just jobbers in the playoffs and other teams will feast on us. The hype was never real. Hold that L and accept this team's fate. We're just a cheaper version of Knickstape with less expectations.



Well damn

We paid him so we not building through youth.


we didn't pay him pay him though. and he still showcases talent. he's tradeable to a team like OKC imo

Well we saw that Kemba clearly wasn't the one and only issue with the defense, that's for sure. Grimes played extended minutes tonight. Clearly Thibs realizes there's an issue and he's got Grimes as the next man up. I'd probably just start him instead of fournier at this rate but he's going to end up getting minutes.
