Cavs @ Orlando, Monday 7PM, FSNHD & NBATV HD

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I think another problem about this trade is we really need a 2nd scorer.

When Z struggles we just don't have another guy who can consistently produce points. Drew for all his flaws could put up pts.

That should be Ferry's #1 priority in the offseason - bring in somebody who can complement LBJ and score.
 
^^True, this trade has been a disappointment so far. The best rotation that I saw was Andy, Smith, Delonte, Sasha, and Bron.

IMO the trade was a good one, It's Mike Brown that's making things difficult.

Couple of points:

The game started off good for us, but when the Magic made adjustments at halftime, guess who couldn't keep up with the pace.

It has been evident for a while now that Wally is sucking. He shouldn't be allowed to even touch the bench. Futhermore Mike Brown continues to put him on the floor with Damon....while Lebron is on the bench....Mike Brown = retard.

Lebron and West should never be on the bench at the same time.

Brown sat the starters way too long especially West. Please tell me why Brown sat West when he got hot, that's mind boggling. Why did he continue to play AV, when it was very clear AV wasn't up for this game.

And more importantly, why is Mike Brown still unable to make in game adjustments. We should have went with a Z,Lebron,Sasha,Devin,West lineup down the stretch.

It's not the team, its the coach. It will probably get worse when Boobie comes back.

Only Wally for now(Booby is injured) can do that...But he is on the bench because Sasha and Devin are much better players....
 
I wouldn't overreact though. We are a team built for the playoffs and god willing we have health we will be a force. We still have a good amount of games to mesh, and we will..

Wally can be fantastic 2nd scoring option...Brown is playing him only 5 min and with bad players on the court...It can be much different with LBJ and Smith and West on the court...But with Jones,Brown and Andy,Wally cant play good offensive basketball....

I agree. Wally would fair much better if Mike Brown put him in a better situation. Making him the main threat on the second unit is a bad move, but Wally could help himself by playing smarter on offense.
 
Hes in mike browns doghouse. I was really rooting for him to heat up because he will ride the pine now. a 10ppg scorer on a good percentage lost..

The real question is Why is Mike Brown still coach of this team?
 
Wally can be the 2nd scoring option of the team? :notfunny?
 
Slow down man...Just slow down...I think me and Wally are guilty for this game...Just look at our coach...He gave WALLY 5 minutes?What you can do for that time?Please explain to me why Sasha and Devin are better then Wally?This team is going nowhere with this rotation....

Wally is a piece of crap! Even dumbass Mike Brown can figure that out. :chuckles:

Wally could easily be the third option behind Z and Bron. I just hope daniel gibson turns into gilbert arenas for the playoffs
 
Lebron needs a coach who is not afraid to call him out and demand things from him (playing off the ball, getting in the post, etc.)

Mike B. is just not in position to do that.

More than that though he just doesn't have a clue with rotations and our half-court offense has been a disaster for years now despite entirely different personnel.

If Lebron dominating the ball is the problem the head coach is still responsible for not changing that

I think with a young superstar like LBJ, you need a seasoned veteran coach whose won some titles. Nobody seems to respect Mike Brown and it's painfully obvious that Lebron is the one running the show. They need a Phil Jackson type coach that isn't afraid to criticise Lebron.
 
This is the type of game where we really miss Boobie. When he comes back, things will fall into place.

If this team gets eliminated in the first round... which wouldn't surprise me at all at this point, then I think somebody needs to take a serious look at Mike Brown and ask themselves if he has what it takes. I still like this trade... I just don't like the way Brown is utilizing the personnel. I know i'm not the only one questioning the lineups he goes with at times... and at this rate Lebron will have nothing left in the tank for the playoffs if he keeps getting 40+ mpg a night.

Hopefully things turn around here pretty soon. :confused:
