Game thread: Cavaliers vs. Bobcats

[Kidbasketball20]

Easy win for the Bobcats even without Lance.



The no D Cavs will continue to falter.

[Kidbasketball20]

Bump

[MP.Trey]

First game I'll be able to catch in a little while. Hope it's a good one.

[navy]

Kevin Love has gotten hot in first quarters and then tailed off. He's bound to have a hot shooting night sooner or later, especially after that 1-8 performance.

Hornets are better without Lance.

[NattyPButter]

Delly in the line up again...this is starting to make me not like Blatt.

Who would you prefer?

[NattyPButter]

Who would you prefer?

Dion and he should be playing 40mins with the injuries to the team. Also wouldn't mind Joe Harris playing some of his mins to. Delly just plain suck.

[BigTicket]

Cavs really need to win game, otherwise it's going to be a very long two weeks while Lebron is out.

Bench goes from bad to garbage if you start Dion. :confusedshrug:

[MP.Trey]

Cody Zeller balling out :eek:

Kyrie's gotta stop taking so many jumpshots. Get to the bucket kid.

[D-Wait]

TT is the worst offensive player in the league :facepalm

[zizozain]

Zeller

[NattyPButter]

Bench goes from bad to garbage if you start Dion. :confusedshrug:

bench is already garbage...I rather not get in a big whole because of Delly and his jump passes that leads to turn overs, or him passing up wide open 3's to pass, or when he shoots the 3 it's usually a damn brick or airball, or his alley's that are 2ft over players heads, don't get me started on his overrated defense. He sucks and belongs on the bench.

[L.Kizzle]

Bobcats by 100.

[navy]

Bobcats dont exist.

[Kidbasketball20]

The Cavs D is truly horrific. Anderson going out is gonna be really bad for them.

[NattyPButter]

The Cavs D is truly horrific. Anderson going out is gonna be really bad for them.

it's not like he helped much. He was slow on rotations and his man usually bullied his ass, but he was doing great on the offensive side.

[BigTicket]

I really don't get why the Cavs are so bad at rebounding. Kevin Love and Tristan Thomas were on the floor, how the **** can they get out rebounded 10-3 by Zeller and Biyombo ? :facepalm

[L.Kizzle]

Lol, true story.

More bricks = more rebound chances

[rlsmooth775]

Another game where love gets exposed for the role player he is

[R.I.P.]

Ricky Rubio should get some revisionist history MVP votes for almost dragging the Wolves and poor man

[Kidbasketball20]

At least he was a big man with energy.


Cavs are fine at the guard position defensively if they had a Hibbert or DeAndre Jordan type player.

[navy]

[QUOTE=R.I.P.]Ricky Rubio should get some revisionist history MVP votes for almost dragging the Wolves and poor man

[BigTicket]

The Cavs really ought to be a .500 team without Lebron, but it certainly doesn't look like that right now.

Gotta win vs bad teams. It's possible.

[poido123]

That Tristan Thompson jumpshot. :eek:

Put it in your bag and keep it there

[Kidbasketball20]

Dellanwhatever his name is is bad. How is he the first PG off the bench?

[D-Wait]

He's actually our starting 2 guard :lol

[Kidbasketball20]

He's actually our starting 2 guard :lol

Good luck keeping LeBron with that.

[D-Wait]

dat Kyrie 3 pointer on top of the backboard :facepalm

[lilteapot]

ALPHA.

[navy]

What would the Cavs record be if they didnt get Lebron and Love? Holy shit.

[lilteapot]

What would the Cavs record be if they didnt get Lebron and Love?
They'd honestly be competing for worst record in the conference.

[Kidbasketball20]

good close out by the Cavs.

[Kidbasketball20]

What would the Cavs record be if they didnt get Lebron and Love? Holy shit.

Slightly better than the Knicks

[navy]

Kyries a chucker man. He's good, but dude wishes he was a few inches taller cause point guard is not his thing.

[NattyPButter]

What would the Cavs record be if they didnt get Lebron and Love? Holy shit.

the team has been getting better each year. I feel if they kept Wiggins and got FA they wanted not Lebron's boys the team would be at .500 or better.

[rlsmooth775]

Are you high

Which free agents you talking about....

[Magic 32]

What would the Cavs record be if they didnt get Lebron and Love? Holy shit.

What would any team be if you took away it's two best players?

[edrick]

Kyrie still hasn't proven shit, other than that he is a talented scorer. He looks to score far more often than not, and teams do not win in this league trying to play the way that he does. Hero ball will win a team a few games, but who gives a **** if the goal is a championship.

[Kidbasketball20]

Where the Kevin Love haters at? He's balling.

He's playing great right now.

Active defender and attacks the basket.

[navy]

Cavs need this win.

[lilteapot]

Nice pass by Irving, threaded the needle

[MP.Trey]

Diooooon

[lilteapot]

This Waiters-Thompson Pick and Roll action looks nice

[navy]

Why is Kevin Love coming out so high...

[NattyPButter]

Which free agents you talking about....

well they had a ton of money and picks to throw around before Lebron and Love came so you pick who would fit and throw money at them. You still get Lebron but fawk his boys and Kevin Love.

[Kidbasketball20]

This team looks top tier from the 2nd half.

[lilteapot]

Why this team never runs more Love PNR is beyond me

[NattyPButter]

lolz Delly u bum

[navy]

Kevin Love had 19 rebounds last time they played the Bobcats this year.

[Kidbasketball20]

This Bobcats team is missing 2 or 3 pieces.

[navy]

There is no reason to run pick and roll with Kyrie and Marion. It's just useless action. Literally everyone else on the floor is better. At least use Mike Miller if you want a three.

[NattyPButter]

wish game was over so team can get this win.

[lilteapot]

missed travel call on MKG

[navy]

Kyrie and Dion are the best chucking 1-2 combo in the league. Take that as you wish.

[Kvnzhangyay]

Love is barely getting any rebounds :biggums:

Lebron must be making Love into a jumpshooter :lol

[Fudge]

Cody Zeller hasn't done jack shit since like the first quarter.

Bust.

[navy]

Cody Zeller hasn't done jack shit since like the first quarter.

Bust.
Kevin Love shut him down.

[lilteapot]

LOVE. That was cold blooded

[navy]

Kyrie needs to be the third option.

[Meticode]

Great way to start this two weeks without LeBron.

[JT123]

I didn't get a chance to see this game, but from looking at the box score Kyrie had a Kobe-esque performance tonight. :wtf:
Was he taking bad shots or was it just one of those nights where nothing falls?

He was taking bad shots.

[Quizno]

hornets have regressed so much. ****in trash

[edrick]

Much needed win after consecutive losses. Good game by love... the chucker twins need to quit that shit though.

[JT123]

He was taking bad shots.
I figured that had to be the case if he shot THAT poorly. He's a great player with tons of potential, but he is no where close to being a top 5 point guard as many posters on this site wanna claim. Being top 5 is about more than just talent, it's about being smart and knowing how to play winning basketball. Irving still has a ways to go in that department.

[Hey Yo]

Why was K. Love spotting up tonight?? I thought Lebron didn't play?

[lilteapot]

Why was K. Love spotting up tonight?? I thought Lebron didn't play?
Love should be spotting up, it's one of the things he does best, and did best in Minny.

And Kevin Love had a "all-star big man not playing with Lebron James"- esque performance .

[JT123]

And Kevin Love had a "all-star big man not playing with Lebron James"- esque performance .
Bout time. :lol
btw, big men may put up nice stat lines without Lebron, but those stats typically don't result in wins. See Chris Bosh.

[Hey Yo]

Love should be spotting up, it's one of the things he does best, and did best in Minny.
But why was he taking and converting spot up 3pt jumpers? Who made him shoot them?

Why would he settle for those if James DNP?

[edrick]

And Kevin Love had a "all-star big man not playing with Lebron James"- esque performance .

And a garbage one two nights ago.
