Re: 3rd time's a charm?: Cle vs Orl 10/29
The first two games were hard to watch but we are at just the third game and fighting the NBA champs to the end on the road on the 2nd night of a back-to-back.
So many changes happened to the roster, the coaching staff and even the philosophy of this team. It was going to take a bit for things to mesh. Win or lose tonight, I still feel good.

Vogel will learn what Skiles never did. You don't put Evan on LeBron.

At the rate we're going, we're about to lose to both of them

Rough foul call, fournier just standing threw as LeBron shoulder checks him.
“If you're getting stops and you're making threes and the other team's not scoring, that's when you're going to see a huge point difference there,” coach Billy Donovan said.

I am telling you guys, once they unclog the offense, confidence goes up all around and everything comes together including on defense.
This was pretty apparent... That's why having a 3 that could shoot or at least you have a stretch 4 line-up makes life easier on everyone.

If Ibaka commits to resigning until the deadline and the FO trusts his word, then Vuc is as good as gone. Probably paired with someone else in order to get a wing shooter with a proven record. (Have no idea who that could be...)

I dont think Hennigan went with the big in the small era idea but if he doesnt fix it hes going to pay for it. Ibaka is borderline too slow to play center let alone PF.

Doesn't need to happen immediately. But he'd be huge for us off the bench.

Im still not convinced. Valiant comeback but we were down 20+ again.

That was worse than a hook IMO he almost threw his elbow at Payton.
