Still the Cavaliers biggest weakness. Tony Parker flashbacks anyone?

Stop taking 3 pointers. You guys stink at it.

LeBron on Mo. Gotta like that.

What is wrong with this band of idiots. They make a good play and immediately follow it with a stupid one.

Im out. Mo Williams is the second coming against us.

The Bucks would sweep us in a playoff series :banghead:

Luckily they stink against everyone else and therefore we won't have to see them in the playoffs.

I just don't understand how you lose to a team that is obviously tanking.

LeBron is in "I have to do it all" mode which is fine when that means he's taking the ball to the rim. Not so good when he's taking 3's.

I know what it is, the Cavs refuse to get more than 10 games over 500

The good thing about the Eastern playoffs is that there will be no players like Mo Williams to face. Boston has Rondo which is the closest thing, but Rondo isnt a threat as a shooter so he isnt as bad. Finding someone to slow the fast PG's has to be a priority this offseason.

I do expect the Cavs to make a push here, but they started too late.

Mo >>> Redd and it's not even close..

I'd much rather make a play for him than Redd..

Could you imagine Mo playing in some big time games in a winning atmosphere ?? Redd (IMO) has a poor basketball IQ..He's just a dumb basketball player that is streaky, but has to be the main guy in order to get his numbers and rhythm...

Mo on the other hand is the perfect type of combo guard that we need... And he's flashed more than enough PG skills than we would need on this team..

I want Mo...

Doubling Williams in the backcourt with AV is smart. The Bucks will counter of course.

I have no idea why the Cavs decided to take so many 3's on a day when they really weren't making them. Had they just gone inside instead of taking 3's in the 4th quarter this game would be alot close than it is.

I would say thank god for the NCAA tourney, but I went against my own rules this year and picked Duke to make the FF. Now UCLA is down 10 to Texas A&M.

I'm not worrying about this loss. Time for the guys to rest up, we've got some big games with Detroit, Philly and New Orleans coming up. Sure we have our flaws and they're big ones. Right now, you could say the same for most teams.

Wow how did the ref miss that call with it RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM???

Post #97 » by **TheOUTLAW** » Sun Mar 23, 2008 2:56 am

I wouldn't be worried about this loss if it weren't for the fact that I haven't worried about a whole lot of other losses. We're supposed to beat the bad teams. This is a character flaw with the Cavs.

By the way, people have been suggesting that the Cavs make trades to get various players from the Bucks and frankly I don't want any of them either. They are too comfortable with losing.

We lost to the Knicks and Bobcats twice last year and made the Finals. Some teams match up well against you... the Bucks are that team. Im not worried about the fact that we lost to them. Im more worried about the fact that the first and third quarters were two of the laziest quarters Ive seen all year.

Post #99 » by **TheOUTLAW** » Sun Mar 23, 2008 3:04 am

The Knicks had super human efforts and the Bobcats just play hard. This was the Cavs playing like crap and being disinterested. It was LeBron believing that he could just turn it one in the 4th quarter and everything would be alright. It's all a bunch of bad habits that this team has acquired this year (and some were holdovers from last). Keep thinking that this team will make the finals if you'd like. I really don't see us getting out of the first round. Last years team were downright machine like in the 4th quarter, we make way too many stupid mistake and even more stupid shot selections.

^^It has nothing to do with match-ups. Our guys just don't care about some games. It's mostly LeBron's fault because he's the leader. It would be better not to watch the Cavs 'til the playoffs start. This teams attitude is pissing me off.
