Game 61 | Cavs (42-18) @ Heat (28-34) | March 4, 2017 | 8:00 PM

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I don't understand why Frye hesitates to shoot spot-up threes when there's a shorter defender on him. Like that's his bread and butter....
 
Also Liggins has no busy running the offense...I'd honestly rather see Shump or DWill2 run it
 
not bad ...we're only giving up 70 a half

That and it's like the NBA game is too fast for him all the sudden.

He turns (without getting good position, of course) and guys are already jumping for boards or blowing by him. He frankly doesn't belong on a court right now.

He's playing a little too much this season. He's a ~13-15 minute a game player right now...19 is a little too much. He just looks old, slow, and tired all the time.

He's also been playing way out of position this season. He is not a C, but we are masquerading him as one for some reason.

But I don't care if you are playing out of position, or tired...you can't be 7 feet tall and just stare at defensive rebounds in your area and not attempt to grab the ball...its like he's expecting someone else to come in and grab the board for him...weird.

He was a decent defender last season, and a pretty good rim protector believe it or not...he's becoming borderline unplayable this season because of how much his defense has fallen off.

Channing is what he is. He is a stretch four/five who needs to play next to a great rebounder, he is a situational bench player at this point in his career.

All these minutes, him starting, and asking him to do all kinds of things that he really isn't too great at...it's obviously taking a huge toll on him and affecting his shooting.

Bogut coming in will help Frye a lot. I just need Frye to be ready to come off the bench and stroke the three in the first 3 rounds of the playoffs.
 
This reminds me of pre-Lebron era 2 basketball. I've returned to numbnessland.
 
Really bad 2nd quarter :(
 
Cavs will never win a game where Shump and Liggins dribble this much. That's just science.
 
-17 in the 2nd quarter, that's a sick joke.

Miami is also on a back to back after losing to Orlando badly.
 
Yea 2nd qtr was bad 32-16 after a good offensive 1st...DWill ran the offense smooth...Liggins made my eyes bleed
 
this has the look of a 30+ point loss...not too bad considering we are missing our entire starting lineup...
 
We are essentially playing without our 5 best guys at each position Bogut TT debate aside.

No team in the NBA would win a game under those circumstances.
