Cleveland is epically bad. If we lose then it will kill my enthusiasm for the next month

Gotta see something from Marv this game. This roster's biggest weak point is Marv is now the MKG of the starting unit.

Marv has always been streaky (well except for this year so far where he's just been slumping) but he used to be springy enough to make timely contests around the paint. This year he looks as grounded as Frank which makes me wonder if we should play Frank more b/c his standing reach might be better. I think that last sentence was in jest but I'm not sure.

Of course this would be the game where Marvin hits his shots. GTFOH

Cavs are really really bad.

At this point I'm starting to think our bench guys are all better then our starters (Kemba excepted, obviously).

I am getting sick of Lamb on defense and Zeller in general. Zeller is so weak its pathetic.

Borrego is pissed. The defense has been horrendous.

Batum is starting to become my favorite player, he is such an asset to this team.

First half thoughts:

-If he's going to insist on using that starting unit JB has to figure out a way to get them going earlier. Several times the ball got stuck in the Batum/Zeller/Lamb triangle and only crap shots resulted.

-That same unit got roasted by Kyle Korver of all people for almost three solid minutes. (It won't be Osman after all, Catch20two)

-Bench is good, Parker is a god.

The second unit features players that fit team ball better. They move better. They have a much quicker pace and everything looks more fluid. The first unit has Kemba but the floor seems smaller when they're out there. Play seems disjointed. I don't know why.

Korver is smart and knows our defenses weaknesses. We protect the paint too much and a simple screen gives him the open 3s.

I still can't believe JB starts Marvin.

Why did the starting unit go back like it did? That seemed weird, feels like JB has been staggering the lineups in the second half of Q2.
