"A bigger issue, though, seemed to be Cleveland's toughness. The Cavs got pushed around and outrebounded in all four losses, including 48-30 in the clincher."

“We weren’t physical enough,” Garland said. "We didn’t punch first. We were always getting punched.”


Oops...yall thought we were talking about the Pacers?

This is from the Knicks-Cavs series several years ago. Change the coach but the core is still the same. How they lose is still the same. Mitch and Brunson would have killed them again if we met them in the playoffs...believe that.

Could be. Hunter probably starts over Strudel which makes them better. Jarrett Allen probably would play better too

Swap coaches?

Obviously comes down to more than just 3PT variance but feels like the 3 ball was a huge part of the cavs offense all year and they just didn't have it this series. Even today they lose by 9 in a game they make 6 less 3s.

Hali goes off and makes 6/10 from deep while garland and strus are 0/12. Pacers 15/35 Cavs 9/35.

Good thing is they don't play defense like Detroit or Boston. Towns gotta get off

Garland was taking out his hair band when the clock was still running down

And Mobley is way too bland for me … didn’t seem to care at all

This mitchy might be a snitchy. Sold on 3 FTA that could have kept them in it.

Cavs not beating the allegations right now after that season-long glaze fest.

Shouldn't look ahead anyways still need to take care of business.

Imagine if Brunson had missed those 2 game winning free throws in Boston?
