GT: Cavs v. Sixers

[DukeDelonte13]

Cavs going for 11 in a row.

[Meticode]

Hope to see a lot of the same energy they've had and not down-play their opponent because of just their record.

[StrongLurk]

80 percent of Lebrons turnovers have got to come in the 1st quarter.

[hawkfan]

Sixers played us well.
They are young and athletic.

[Meticode]

WTF, Philly calls a timeout less than 2 minutes into the game? It's only 5-0 right now.

[DukeDelonte13]

Cavs should be well rested for this game.

[navy]

WTF, Philly calls a timeout less than 2 minutes into the game? It's only 5-0 right now.
When did you start posting again?

[StrongLurk]

Once again Bron playing terrible in the first quarter.

[Meticode]

LeBron so sloppy with the ball to start the game.

[Meticode]

When did you start posting again?
When I stopped working nights, about 2 weeks ago or so.

[Trollsmasher]

80 percent of Lebrons turnovers have got to come in the 1st quarter.
I bet that's quite close to that numbers. He never gives a shit about anything in his frist stint and always seems to get at least 3 in the 1st quarter

[StrongLurk]

LeBron so sloppy with the ball to start the game.

How many games have you watched this season. You can almost pencil it in at this point. Pretty much every game I've seen he's been very sloppy in the first quarter.

[DukeDelonte13]

i cannot wait to see what type of player Embiid turns out to be.

[Meticode]

:facepalm LeBron giving turnovers every other time he touches the ball. Should be a 20 point lead by now if he wasn't for his sloppiness.

[StrongLurk]

Lebron AGAIN sloppy. I don't care if he's been healthy or not, this is the worst season I've seen him play "eye test" wise since 2008. Really disappointing honestly.

[lilteapot]

FFS Lebron's handles this season are so bad

[Cavalier]

LeBron has butterfingers this season. I've never seen the ball slip off of his hands more than it has this season.

[DukeDelonte13]

cavs need to tighten things up.

[buddha]

Kevin love just jumping on backs and getting foul calls lmao

[navy]

Kevin Love is a crazy rebounder lol

[StrongLurk]

Wow can't believe Larry Drew 2 is in the NBA. Watched him at Carolina and he couldn't even play at that level.

[navy]

How is Love 1-7? Lol those missed tip ins.

[Meticode]

The Matrix giving the Sixers 5 free points at the end. Missed two freethrows then fouled at the three point line with 0 seconds on the clock. :facepalm

[G0ATbe]

LeBalds at 4 turnovers per game. Gotta be the most overrated passer of all time. Top 4 turnover rate in the league:bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: .

[lilteapot]

Marion is retiring 2 years too late

[RoundMoundOfReb]

LeBalds at 4 turnovers per game. Gotta be the most overrated passer of all time. Top 4 turnover rate in the league:bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: .
Magic Johnson was also at about 4 TOs per game.

[lilteapot]

Magic Johnson was also at about 4 TOs per game.
Owned. GOATBe exposed for having a low BBIQ

[G0ATbe]

Magic Johnson was also at about 4 TOs per game.
While averaging like 5 or 6 more assists:lol

[Meticode]

If the Cavs were playing a good team, they'd be losing this game right now.

[Meticode]

LeBron needs a new under-shirt. Dude always is adjusting, even while dribbling the ball.

[navy]

If the Cavs were playing a good team, they'd be losing this game right now.
Maybe they would be trying though :lol

[Meticode]

Maybe they would be trying though :lol
True, they look so uninterested out there.

[StrongLurk]

Lebron :facepalm

[Meticode]

I love seeing Iman hitting the jumpshots.

[navy]

Nerlens can get up. Or Delly sucks.

[navy]

Cavs so lazy

[Meticode]

Sixers fouled the Cavs 3 times within 15 seconds lol

[GOBB]

This game is dumb. Someone bench Bron so it can be watchable geeze. :oldlol:

This guy just comes down and layup lines buckets.

[Meticode]

Cavs can't make a basket, but their defense is keeping them ahead.

[StrongLurk]

Lebron getting away with traveling and getting some iffy calls.

[navy]

Game is terrible.

[Meticode]

Obsess much?


Lebron getting away with taveling and getting some iffy calls.

80 percent of Lebrons turnovers have got to come in the 1st quarter.

Once again Bron playing terrible in the first quarter.

Lebron AGAIN sloppy. I don't care if he's been healthy or not, this is the worst season I've seen him play "eye test" wise since 2008. Really disappointing honestly.

Lebron :facepalm

[Hey Yo]

Are the announcers referring to him as.... LRMAM??

[Cavalier]

Lebron getting away with traveling and getting some iffy calls.

Did you just start watching the NBA? You just summed up LeBron's career.

[GOBB]

Cavs arent even trying. It's like its a practice.

[navy]

Kyrie is an and1 player

[DukeDelonte13]

mozgov and JR getting it done this quarter

[I<3NBA]

Kyrie Irving is just a bad PG overall. he's a SG in a PG body. somebody else should play PG for the Cavs. they'll never win the championship with Irving playing the point.

[StrongLurk]

MozGOD

[navy]

Sixers playing hard at least. Cavs sleeping.

[StrongLurk]

Kyrie this quarter :facepalm

[Hey Yo]

J.R Swish

[navy]

Weird that Blatt has no trust in Kevin Love to be on the court alone.

[DukeDelonte13]

Kyrie Irving is just a bad PG overall. he's a SG in a PG body. somebody else should play PG for the Cavs. they'll never win the championship with Irving playing the point.

i heard some guy named Lebron James does that.

[StrongLurk]

Definitely an offensive foul.

[JT123]

What the hell is this lineup? :oldlol:
fcking Blatt. :facepalm

[navy]

Blatt obviously thinks this is an auto win.

[navy]

Kinda rotations that can get a man fired

[StrongLurk]

Blatt obviously thinks this is an auto win.

It kind of is.

[I<3NBA]

Lebron sits and the double digit lead is gone :facepalm

[JT123]

So the Cavs let a 20 point lead get get to 4 in less than one quarter because Blatt refuses to call a timeout or change up his awful lineup. :facepalm
This dude needs to be fired.

[navy]

It kind of is.
He shouldnt have let it get past 10 though. Just gave no fvcks.

[Meticode]

So the Cavs let a 20 point lead get get to 4 in less than one quarter because Blatt refuses to call a timeout or change up his awful lineup. :facepalm
This dude needs to be fired.
Knee jerk reaction. You're absurd.

[sportsfan76]

Knee jerk reaction. You're absurd.


he is looking at the big picture, if he coaches like this now then what will he do when the playoffs come?

[DukeDelonte13]

he is looking at the big picture, if he coaches like this now then what will he do when the playoffs come?

probably not tinker around with lineups maybe?

[coin24]

Knee jerk reaction. You're absurd.


He's Jameer the LeBald stan what do you expect :lol

You don't remain a virgin for 40 years by being normal

[Meticode]

Nice to see Irving improve in catch and shoot situations.

[navy]

Blatt played with fire and won. I guess it's okay since it's the sixers.

[JT123]

Knee jerk reaction. You're absurd.
This aint the first time he's done that shit this season. Cavs won't go very far in the playoffs with him making these kinds of mistakes.

[Meticode]

he is looking at the big picture, if he coaches like this now then what will he do when the playoffs come?
The playoffs and now is a completely different animal. Who knows, maybe he was being stupid. Maybe he was leaving the team out there to battle through some adversity, who knows.

[Meticode]

This aint the first time he's done that shit this season. Cavs won't go very far in the playoffs with him making these kinds of mistakes.
First year NBA coach, things are going to happen. The Sixers aren't very good, maybe he wanted the team to battle through some adversity? Whatever the case he's going to make mistakes regardless.

[navy]

lol cavs so lazy

[DukeDelonte13]

lol cavs so lazy


allergic to hustle tonight.

[JT123]

Bron hasn't even scored in the 2nd half. Dude needs to stop settling for pull up 3's and get to the line.
And he gets a dunk as soon as I post this. lol

[navy]

Blatt was just as complacent as the players. Should have just won by 20. Now Cavs on verge of losing to sixers twice

[sportsfan76]

I have this feeling the sixers will win:rockon:

[JT123]

What a clutch assist by Bron. :applause:

[G0ATbe]

LeBalds just passing to Kyrie and getting his ass out of the way like he's supposed to:applause: . This needs to be the gameplan in every clutch situation.

[navy]

I have this feeling the sixers will win:rockon:
They wont. But good play. Cavs just didnt care.

[JT123]

That's the first aggressive drive Lebron has made this entire half. :lol

[Magic 32]

And the MVP is once again....

[GOBB]

Reverse jinx :rolleyes:

[DukeDelonte13]

outback jesus pulling this one out for the cavs. Good for him.

[sportsfan76]

Not only did they lose but I don't get 50% of Papa John's tomorrow because they didn't score 90 pts

[I<3NBA]

and that's the dagger right there. Delly playing great hustle on both ends of the floor.

[navy]

Terrible game.

[GOBB]

Good game Covington and Jerami Grant. 2 finds by Hinkie. :applause:

[Cavalier]

Pretty poor outing by the Cavs, but this was their 5th game in 7 days so it's understandable. Give credit to the 76ers too, they play hard until the end, they're just really young and inexperienced. If Embiid can remain healthy they have a bright future ahead.

[I<3NBA]

first time in the win streak Cavs didn't score over 100?

[Meticode]

11 game winning streak. Meanwhile Pelicans are up 7 start of the 3rd quarter against the Hawks.

[Meticode]

first time in the win streak Cavs didn't score over 100?
No, Portland they won 99-94. Irving's double nickle game.

Which hasn't happened at any point in the last 2 years for him when he's playing meaningful basketball.

Where were you last game when Bron dropped 16 in the 4th to secure the win? Hiding out in your little shit infested hole again?

[coin24]

Hater alert.

How is Embiid progressing anyway??

I thought he'd be recovered and training by now, obviously not playing cause of the tank..

[Meticode]

Hater alert.
Sorry, I'm not optimistic about a true big man with all that weight he carries and he already had a back issue and now a foot issue before he plays a NBA game. Bring on the hate muh ****as!

[GOBB]

Still hasnt been cleared to do full practice, sharp cutting. So far he just does post moves and shoot arounds. About all I know of him so far. And doubt he suits up this season at all. And since Sixers dropped out of Orlando Summer League might not see him until Vegas Summer League.

He carries no more weight than Jordan, Cousins. :confusedshrug:

[RedBlackAttack]

Nice to see that LeBron could have such a pedestrian game and the Cavs still win comfortably enough to have the reserves in in the final couple minutes. It wasn't pretty, but I'll take it.

And, it was a good overall night for the Cavs. We win, Hawks, Wiz and Raps all lose.

Bulls play Houston on Wednesday, good chance you guys can move up to the 4th spot

It's the Sixers. Cavs might be feeling themselves abit much. Even Blatt didnt care what they did out there.

Houston without Howard are not that scary. We should beat them.

If that was a decent team, the Cavs would have lost, because Love also played like complete ass. Luckily, even if Lebron is shooting poorly, he still demands attention on defense, and can run the point.

[RedBlackAttack]

The Sixers almost beat the Hawks a couple nights ago and that was coming off of two straight wins. This is the NBA. All these guys are professionals and no win is a given. Didn't the Sixers beat the Heat a couple times last year?

[RedBlackAttack]

And, if that's a decent team, they probably wouldn't have been sleepwalking for the vast majority of the game. It cuts both ways. Sometimes, you play down to your competition.

It's a long season and this team has played a ton of games recently... 8 games in the last 12 days. I think they are due a little slack for not lighting it up every night.

Sixers play hard. So they can steal wins, im just saying the team played like it was a guaranteed win, why they only won by 13 instead of 20 or 30. Blatt didnt even seem phased when he let it get down to 4 after taking out the entire big 3.

The Sixers were hitting a lot of contested threes in the second half to keep the game close. There was no way they were going to be able to keep that up, and their offense outside of that was pretty anemic.

Our offense was out of sync, but I still liked what we did defensively for the most part and I'm sure that's why Blatt wasn't stressing too much. Just a matter of time before they pulled away.

Either LeBron or Kyrie was going to get hot at the right time and basically end the thing. Tonight, it happened to be KI and Delly knocking down some big (wide open) Js. The Sixers played hard, but I never felt that the game was really in doubt, even when it was down to 1.

When you have 8 wins in 12 days, you'll take them however they come. The AS break can't get here soon enough for this team. They're obviously playing on tired legs. A part of me wishes that Kyrie hadn't made it. He could use a nice long hiatus.

[RedBlackAttack]

Some of Kyrie's finishes in traffic tonight were insane. He really might be the most creative below the rim finisher I have ever seen for a player his size.

Kyrie Irving Full Highlights 2015.02.02 vs 76ers - 24 Pts on 9-of-16 shooting, 5 Dimes, 12 Pts in 4th! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXZn29Quc1I)

The moves at 2:40 and 3:00. Wow.

Hawks losing doesn't do anything for the Cavs.. They're not catchable for any team at this point, first seed is theirs.

[BigTicket]

Hawks losing doesn't do anything for the Cavs.. They're not catchable for any team at this point, first seed is theirs.

That's probably true, but it's still good to see them lose, since the Cavs will likely have to go through the Hawks if they want to reach the finals.
