Game 52: Cavaliers (36-15) @ Thunder 30-23

[Jscc]

It was a bad decision by Lue and I feel like they felt pressured about it being a national TV game and let it dictate our plans for the night

I doubt they demanded Lue play LeBron 40 minutes.

 

[Soar]

Jordan McRae needs to miss the plane back to Cleveland.

 

[Simmy]

Basketball is so much simpler than the Cavs tend to make it.

The Thunder have a) swung the ball from side to side all night and b) showed a greater level of hustle and desire.

That's the difference, nothing more.

Cavs should have rested the big 3 if they had planned on giving this kind of minimal effort. This team can be an annoying, hot mess at times.

 

[Benedict_Boozer]

The Thunder have really been throwing up some slop tonight.

 

[Meny]

Lebron with 2 points in the 2nd half

 

[Sticker114]

McRae needs to go. D Will has done more in one game for us than McRae has the whole year

 

[Ohio]

I'm willing to bet he doesn't play Saturday.

Oh good, so we'll lose two games instead of one. Brilliant planning by Lue!

 

[KilgoreTrout]

18 offensive boards, for the Thunder. Egregious.

I doubt they demanded Lue play LeBron 40 minutes.

Agree 100%.

Terrible job managing our players overall energy levels right now.

 

[Soar]

Also I'm really fucking glad Steven Adams doesn't play on an Eastern Conference "contender" or on a team we will see in the Finals.

 

[bornjoke]

McRae sucks so bad.

 

[tatejuan11]

What to takeaway from this game: Derrick can be a servicable big for us. Also, we give way too many fucking threes, why can`t we defend threes?

 

[Los216]

Add Dipo to the list of guys who always annoy the shit out of us along with Jason Smith, Spencer Hawse, CJ Miles, and Allen Crabbe.

 

[Real Deal]

TT should be traded...

Yea sounds good. Trade the only guy that plays that role.

How about bad game, 3rd in 4 nights, move on.

 

[Soar]

Yeah really impressive win...

You played an exhausted Cavs team without two top 8 rotation players.

 

[Zog]

James Jones showing that he should have gotten some minutes tonight so LeBron could get some rest. Instead we run LeBron out of gas and lose...
