Cavaliers vs. Suns 7pm 1/25

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I think Boobie is in a mini-slump...for him at least. He's not as automatic as usual.

I have a feeling Ira will get pulled from the starting lineup eventually. Having him out there isn't a great way to start halves.

Stop with "the lousy refs" crap. The Suns were resilient and deserved to win. Their ball movement beat us. A few bad bounces off Fred's rubber rim, and we were cooked.

Give the Suns the credit. They came back and played big down the stretch.

Sorry, guess you didn't catch the end of the game. Its funny, LeBron James, at home btw, goes in the paint and gets a huge bump with a no call. He missed the layup. Amare goes in the paint, RUNS INTO VAREJAO and gets a call(Not once, but twice on the final two drives) It amazes me how stupid these refs where tonight, so many HORRIBLE calls all night long. And I know some fans try to act all cool and think the refs didn't control the game, but that isn't the case. They controlled it.

Looks to me Bell was standing all alone ALL NIGHT long...I think we tried to cover them on a few, but after they made a few on us, we said screw it.

We got into the paint, got no calls, and missed layups. If I was LeBron, I'd be pretty pissed at myself, and the refs. Not saying the refs completely cost us this game, but they had their hands in there.

Mike Brown got completely owned in the second half, and I knew the Suns let LeBron James score early so they could score and take the lead with no time left. You think they REALLY suck THAT bad defensively? Lol, no.

Check the replay, the Suns called a second timeout in order to tell his team how to let LeBron James score. They let him get a lane, and they LET him lay the basketball in. If they where tied, it would've been different, but they weren't. James played right into their hands.
 
We win this game if we have the Sash...and if Gooden scores. Drew with 0 points, 2 rebounds 3 turnovers. Larry with a nice game...hope he can build on this. Give the Suns credit, they came back tough in the second half when they could have easily folded.
 
Z should have definitely been in for the last 5 min.
 
Mike Brown is always just about 5 possessions behind the pace of the game. I like him, but that's just the way it is.
 
This game is winnable even Sasha being out. The keys are: don't take out the hot players and please don't try the small ball EVER AGAIN during close games.

I'll give credit for Drew Gooden, every time he was in there, the Suns where running the tempo of the game. Expect from the first quarter, Gooden was a huge part of that Suns run.

I also cannot believe Gibson and Jones missed WIDE OPEN threes!

Ok slow down. I don't think they let him in the lane, if they did, fine. But how many times have you seen LBJ blow past someone in the final minute of a game? Ask the pistons, it's been a few.

And we wouldn't have had the last shot anyway, I think at the least they would have had 6 seconds left.

By shooting early,

1. he misses, we have more time to foul/shoot 3's and hope to tie. We weren't getting the last shot anyway.

2. I'd rather give Pho 20 seconds to work than 6. Remember, they are the best 7 second scoring team in the NBA, giving them that much time plays into their best strength. 20 seconds makes it more of a half-court game, aka our strength.
 
CavsRules:

Chill. It's one game out of 82. A few missed shots really cost us in the 4th. Especially the misses up 98-92. We got 3 chances in one possession and failed each time.

I read your post and went straight for the razor blades! Phoenix moved the ball really well and shot 3's well tonight. No big thing.

Nah, you milk the clock down to at least 2-3 on the shot clock. What I believe we should have done. But still, it was there for the taking so James took it. I seen that play, the Suns just let LeBron go right down the lane...

I get pissed off right after games, my fault, happens all the time. This one ticks me off, thought we had this game.
 
LeBron is now associated with the following.

Honestly, I am sick and tired of Drew Gooden. I want him gone! He is the dumbest and most inconsistent soft piece of garbage I have ever seen. So much talent and potential and this is what we continue to get? One night 19 points next night 0? It is maddening to watch this moron fumble around the court like he's got his shoe laces tied together. Get him out of here!
 
what exactly did lebron say when he kicked the trash can?
 
LeBron broke open for his corner 3, but Larry didn't pull the trigger. Instead, he forced it into Jones.

I think LeBron was frustrated about a few rim rattlers and the fact that Larry missed him.
