Great defense from Paolo, he's trying to will this team through!

This is why you want home court. guys like Strus, Okoro and Merrill actually give you much more

It’s been the same old story with Orlando. We need shooters this off season.

I think that's what makes this one sting so much. We where in complete control and just let the bottom fall right out.

I feel like of this was a repeat of games 1&2 we would have kinda just brushed it off and said oo well it was a good season and we got to game 7. But since we had that lead it makes it hurt so much more I think.

We understand that. It’s a lesson they will learn.

I think the Magic run Cole Anthony for the rest of the game instead of Harris

Okay Franz, this would be a nice time for you to go supernova. Feels like we're working on an all-time stinker of a half historically in game 7s

I mean, he's 7-20. He's getting to the line but it's not like he's shooting well either.
That's why you have teammates, when you start to let go of the rope someone else steps up to help.... But if no one steps up what do you do? Force the issue

Also after his first half the Cavs are throwing everyone at him when he gets the ball, they're daring SOMEONE else to beat them, and no one has stepped up

Meh, if Porzingis is out and Allen comes back, I could honestly see it being more competitive than people think, unless CLE is too gassed from this series.

If Allen couldn’t go in game 7 I’m sure he’s probably not ready to go for game 1

This is not a repeat of games 1&2, the team was down both games playing from behind.

From the wild swings when it comes to home and road I think shooting/confidence/poise. They look like completely disoriented on the road.

After seeing us struggle to make shots, yeah I say come on down Paul George.

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.
