Game 41 | Cleveland Cavaliers (26-14) @ Toronto Raptors (28-11) | Thursday 11th January 2018 |8:00pm

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I hate how the media twist shit like this. This makes it seem like LeBron had nothing to do with the results of the last 2 games.

Comparing him to Jordan...

Yeah. Give LeBron the best rebounder of all time or the best wingman of all time and see what happens. Let alone both. Sports media is going down in flames and becoming more sensationalized as they die. The more layoffs I see the better I feel! Fuck ESPN
 
Is it bad of me for hoping they lose by 20 plus in each of the next 2 games?
 
If Cavs fall out of top 4 seed in East it’s gonna be tuffffff
 
Like I said before, I think it's time for Lebron and Cavs to part ways, think it would be beneficial to both parties. Lebron could definitely thrive on a team like the Rockets and otoh I feel a coach like Lue could manage the more balanced setup to great things.

I feel from all the insightful things said in this thread, InBoobieWeTrust has had the best pov, it's not worth it to have the central player in the team be the biggest negative.

There is not a question, to which "Lue" is the answer, except "Who needs shit-canned before he get to the airport tonight?"
 
Not sure how he's not a viable option ahead of JR

Look at his numbers, he's even shooting the three better than him.

I get its a very, very, small sample size.

He's a better athlete, he hustles more, he's a better defender.

I mean Wade and Korver should still get the bulk of the minutes.

It's so fucking obvious. Start him and just KEEP JR on the bench.

JR is done, he can't play anymore.

He can't even hit 3s at a high enough level to justify keeping him in.

We are one of the worst defenses in the league. No one is defending well on the perimeter on this team.

Even LeBron and Crowder, ideally good defenders, have taken a HUGE step back.

This is some seriously awful coaching. He can't fix everything, I get that.

JR should be a scratch from the rotation though.

Him and IT are going to be our defensive starting back court?

Goodness, we are going to get ROASTED by lots of teams.

JR isn't the same player he was the last few seasons. Not even close.

Yea, Lue is just too much of a "players coach" to ever to do it. If he had the balls to put guys in the doghouse and send a message to the team that no ones spot is guaranteed, we wouldn't be playing this crap defense.
 
Our starting backcourt: 4 points, on 2-20 shooting, 0-8 from three, 4 assists, 3 rebounds, in 52 minutes.
 
How is this the same team that won 18 out of 19!??!?!

Tristan Thompson came back and everything fell apart. He is basically a void out on the floor...like playing 4 on 5. This on top of his mere presence screwing up the team chemistry.
 
Comparing him to Jordan...

Yeah. Give LeBron the best rebounder of all time or the best wingman of all time and see what happens. Let alone both. Sports media is going down in flames and becoming more sensationalized as they die. The more layoffs I see the better I feel! Fuck ESPN

Well, now, this is interesting. It looks as though @Los216 is saying they aren't being sufficiently hard on LeBron for the last two games (correct me if I'm wrong, Los), and it looks like you see the same clip and think they're being too hard on him.

Always fun to see these differences.
 
In a single game against the Cavs, the Raptors have padded their season point differential by a whole point. :chuckle:
 
Do we need a trade? If we don't get one, I will be sorely disappointed.
