Wow Scottie.

[Syd-TK3]

Ref halway across the court calls a foul lol

[PushDaRock]

lol Ochai

[SFour]

This starting lineup cannot stay together. Need variety. Start Ochai/Shead for defense and energy + have IQ/RJ feed off the bench unit

yup the starters don't have enough defense.....only way to fix it is to bring in a defensive minded bench player, the starter's offensive ability will still be useful with the bench lineup.

Just start Ochai and be done with it. Bench IQ.

ya at the moment it's IQ.....RJ and Ingram are playing too good offensively.

[HiJiNX]

We are so bad at the little things.

[WaltFrazier]

These courts are an eyesore to watch on TV

[Son Goku 25]

So half of the cavs team missing let's see if we can pull this out

[dandaman]

Scottie's lack of screen/pick and roll game is stopping him from being elite

[PushDaRock]

Should be up closer to 15 when you outshoot a team 72% to 26%.

What happens when you get outrebounded to f*ck and back

[HiJiNX]

That wasn’t even close Gradey.

[CazOnReal]

GRADEY GOING HARD AT THE RIM

[TorontoBarneys]

Does it feel like Scottie's improved from last year?

[HiJiNX]

Does it feel like Scottie's improved from last year?

Definitely. Seems more deliberate in his process.

[YogurtProducer]

I agree with you about that in particular. That's just having fun.

I do think the maturity and sulking bit is an issue though.

The complaining to refs and losing your man in the process is a big no-no

The lookback on fastbreaks = non issue

Scottie has issues, this isn't really room for debate.

But we have far larger issues in terms of why we aren't winning, enough so that his maturity should indeed be very far down the list of things we need to care about at the moment. Like, Boogie isn't wrong: Barnes is an immature twit a lot of the time, but he's playing really well right now and we're getting wrecked because we are among the worst defenses in the league. Like, the magnitude of our failure on D is comparable to some of Duncan's peak Spurs defenses in the other direction. We're a -7.1 defense at the moment, third-worst in the league. And that's not on Scottie. Nor is our atrocious rebounding.

We correct that, we start winning, and Scottie's little moments start to fade out of focus a lot more.

Just reading this, and yes our defence / rebounding has bigger issues, but Scottie has been incredibly underwhelming there as well.

He can’t bring up to good by himself, but he should he a lot better. When Jak is missing I expect more than 5 boards

[dandaman]

We are keeping it simple.today, i know we are playing underman cavs but we got enough talent just play to your strengths, dont nees all that extra sheit

he way probably improved last season, he was just experimenting
