Tough tough injury for Hayward. Looks like a good guy..
Celtics fans are blasting Jae Crowder for undercutting him. Maybe they have a case, maybe they dont, but it's pretty ironic seeing them turn on their ex player so fast for doing something that wasn't clear at all. When you compare that incidence to what Olynyk had done to Love and how they defended back then and even up until now is pathetic.
Kyrie just through one of his typical errand passes that this time put his teammate at huge risk, especially while being challenged by LBJ at the rim.
As for this game.. as I see it, this team is going to be so overmatched against the Warriors with the way their offensive and defensive direction is headed to.. it's not even funny.
Love at the 5 just doesn't work when you can't put up historic offensive numbers. Putting Love at the 5 just to compensate for the lack of spacing isn't going to do jack shit. It works when you can play 5 out and have players that can shoot from everywhere with a player that is able to collapse the defense and is also an elite passer.
in the limited time that Hayward was on the floor, the Cavs D was pretty exposed to cuts, ball movement and as a result the Celtics were able to get wide open looks from 3 or easy points inside. I just can't see the Cavs doing well having no one to guard the inside and having everyone stretched out to the 3pt line with Durant cutting and being guarded by a much smaller player in Crowder with no one to back him up at the rim. Once Durant gets the ball inside the arc in motion, Crowder will have problems guarding him with no one to back him up.
Our offense was brutal to watch, it's not like it was a big surprise for me, but it was just very disappointing to watch how poorly coached we look.
It was the first game with out our maybe second or third best player... What did you think would happen. They looked great for what they are as of now.
