This game was over once Melo sat out.

Some of our losses this year have been a joke.

Our next game is @Portland. Another short-handed team; we can mark it down as a loss.

I'm stunned... :roll: Except I'm not..

But honestly, our record in these close ones and our poor play down the stretch has more to do with LBJ than anything else.. It's the thing that scares me the most in the playoffs... Even if traded for Bosh or Jamison, or Kobe or whomever-- if LeBron is going to go in Iverson mode, we're going to be in for an interesting ride..

Who's to say he's not going to go into isolation mode this year too ?

Why did Shaq not play more yesterday against Denver? 

Post#96 » by slickvik » Sat Jan 9, 2010 2:56 pm

Mike Brown's decision making confuses me sometimes.
Shaq barely played in the third and not a minute in the fourth. Granted he had 5 fouls, but the cavs were struggling to score in the fourth and this is where a presence down low helps.
Shaq was having no trouble scoring in the paint against nene.

Why not put him in for even a short period? The team kept shooting bad jump shots.
Sure he gets killed on pick and rolls but he clogs up the interior better then "z"

The team dug a hole while LeBron was on the bench.

I worry more about our defense. We protected the rim, at the cost of not having anyone in the same zip code as Denver's shooters.
