i love the show! collab?
looked awful….could only take so much
You're NOT worried about the Cavs, because the Cavs got destroyed in EVERY facet of the game? "Coping" podcast.
Excuse making for the Cavs,I'm shocked.This is SUCH a soft and unathletic team.Darius Garland out?Another huge surprise.The Cavs are 3-9-1 in the rebounding battle and the last win was the second game against the Heat where dick fingers,Mobley didn't play.They are 6-7 in the assist battle which tells me they miss Strus big time as he is one of the few that is constantly moving without the ball while the rest of these lazy bums launch bricks from three.I look over at a tough team,OKC and they just continue to roll at 12-1.This team will never win anything.
I am worried about Mobley. They are trying to make him something he isn't and it is affection all aspects of the game. He is never going to be a bigtime scorer, that is not his mentality. Last night he looked uninterested and was almost invisible on the defensive end of the court.
They need an injection of energy. Trade Allen and Wade. Watch Alan’s body language throughout the entire game. When he gets screened, he allows himself to really get bumped off the play. He’s so nonchalant out there. Yeah he’s a great guy, but this team needs a shot of energy. Play Tom spray more. Starting to feel like Kenny Atkins only playing players like that because he has no choice. Reminiscent of when JB Bickerstaff was the coach not going deep into the bench unless he has to.
What everyone see's in Evan Mobley, I just don't see.😢
“Not worried about it” while fielding a team that hasn’t sniffed a conference finals yet lol.
Both DM and Mobley had the day off against Miami….and this is what happened! Anyone who says thery're not worried are either lying thru their teeth or know something that my esyes don't see!
I feel sorry for ANYONE who bought a ticket to see this mess!
Excuses excuses the Raptors dog walked us
Denial and excuses…
Mobley is the most overrated "athlete" in Cleveland sports
They were only down by 5 at a point bc of the calls refs were making , other than that , the Cavs got outplayed in every way possible
Okc building a dynasty cavs and cavs media making excuses
Get rebounded in every game but not worried,this 233 milion dollar team wont ever win a ship book it.
Mobley stealing money
this was the worse performance you guys have had? damn! i felt like yall were about to come back at any moment but just kept getting choke slammed by barnes, up and down the court 😮
My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined. Teams acting like they did something. Just because you did well in the reg season then ducked out in 2nd does not mean playing uninspired and poorly executed basketball and losing in the regular season is somehow better. Jacking terrible 3s refusing to guard anyone. Larry had shed 1v1 on an island w 2 seconds on the shot clock and playing a deep drop and then was surprised when dude pulled up like he had no other option. Or allowing an inbound pass right to the rim at the end of ot. We clearly miss tys ball handling with dg out. Lonzo is ok but not a good pick and roll player and someone who best case wont play b2bs and worse will miss a lot of games. They cant get evan the ball inside in good position and when they do he passes out instrad of trying to dominate. I dont want to hear anythint about 5 in 7 they rested 4 guys
The ref is better the Mobley
