We lost to Chauncey Billups with Malcolm Brogdon as his best player

I blame our coach single handily being why we lost.

Guys got tired, ran out of gas.

Even coaches that have their rotation in tact, KNOW to use the bench, when guys don't have their legs.

Every coach extends their rotation, when starters have heavy legs. Except this guy.

This is just abysmal coaching.
 
Over the course of about a quarter, Cavs got outscored 37-13. A 12-point lead turned into a 12-point deficit.
 
its really pointless until we get a new coach, so we make the playoffs then what? Our offense is going to be shut down like last season because of this idiot, 95 points against the blazers at home. Fkn pointless
 
Embarrassing loss for the players and embarrassing loss for the Coach

This is fucking Portland. I can rationalize and accept and 8 man rotation against well coached, veteran teams

Against shit teams that arr young, you should be going 9 or 10 deep from the start.

And even if you didn’t script that from the start, when you sense some of your guys are not taking Portland seriously, you mix it up and go to CPJ. You go to Tristan. You get that different energy and look in there.

Bullshit loss that has me down on the coach and down on the players. They should all be embarrassed

Did you watch the game? Like seriously asking.

He played inspired defense tonight and before the team abruptly quit he was moving the ball/going to the hoop. He's allowed to have a shooting slump.

Yes indeed.

"Inspired defense" lol
 
This isn't a "it happens to every team" type of night.

We're were embarrassing them in the first quarter going into the second. I think they're sick of JBB's rotations and game plan as well.

It was good to see CPJ get 23 minutes tonight. He deserved it and we have a coach who recognized it. TT too... good to see him get 14 minutes and play some serious D and some timely offensive rebounds. Things are looking up.

What a F'n joke

Thompson came in and flipped the Raptors game on its head and that was followed up with.......2 straight DNPs.

Everyone was crying about the team not getting healthy well here's a dose of reality: this team getting healthy is a curse. Because all that's meant is now JBB can play the 7-8 guys he REALLY wants to play, and no one else.

I've watched 6 minutes of the last two games and turned off the Raptors at the half.

That's where I'm at and will continue to be until what has to happen happens.

Exactly. I've lost joy in watching this team

There are valid criticisms of Mitchell and there is whatever it is you're doing.

I'm no longer going to engage with you on this issue tonight.

Nightmare time; Luke Walton is named interim coach. We make the playoffs at the #4 seed again. Luke Walton is named permanent head coach.

I mean.. if Walton expands the rotation and draws up good ATOs, it would be a significant upgrade.
 
It's a shame, in two games, back-to-back, how little we use Mobley... Dude probably could have given us 30 in both games.

He's really playing much, much better, don't let the numbers fool you. Last game, he was a monster everywhere.

Damn it, this stuff pisses me off.

Garland with 8 turnovers on 7 assists.

Mitchell with 6 assists with 1 turnover and 4 steals.

And those steals were him going and making a play to get them too. Motherfucker played his ass off on D.

This. Getting the ball to Mobley up top, dribble hand off and then come back for the pick n roll is fucking money.
