Game 70 | Cavs (46-23) @ Nuggets (33-37) | March 22, 2017 | 9:00 PM

Cavs not adjusting to the altitude well, legs are not under them. A step slow defensively and missing everything off the front of the rim.

Give them sometime it's been awhile since we had all of the starts back. Going to take time.

A year of distractions for him. Hard to work when your kid is born way ahead of time.

I'm all for riding it out with JR.

Absolutely. JR is going to be the difference in 2-6 playoff games. I think we will peak at the right time, including JR.

This has to be coaching. I've never seen a team before so confused, lost on defense, and nobody knows what/when to communicate.

Been spouting this off all year. People on here are like oh so and so is hurt... So and so needs to be in order for this player to communicate to defend??

Man with this altitude thing, i don't know how the Nuggets don't go 41-0 at home every year. It's always the 1st excuse.

I mean seriously.. how does Kyrie on Jokic defensively happen.

 

[Flight479]

Kyrie has to get over the screen

 

[Rick Astley]

0 vs 3 team fouls. It'll be boring if this is going to be an attrition game. But hey, if we won who cares?

 

[InBoobieWeTrust]

Nuggets are a decent team. They are going to go all out to win, they really need it.

Looking at the percentages and the score though, have to like the way it looks for the Cavs when things even out as the game goes on.

Block a shot TT you god damn midget.

The smallest 6'9 player in history.

 

[kookoo]

It feels like it's not just a pick and roll issue. Even if guys are outside of the play but close to it, our guys can't adjust to it. Push through is apparently not a chosen technique.

 

[mhi]

Full squad baby!!!

 

[InBoobieWeTrust]

I don't like Korver on Will Barton. I'd switch Shumpert onto him even though that would put Korver on Chandler. Barton is more explosive IMO.

 

[Steelheader316]

Kyrie is such an amazing shot maker. Unbelievable how consistently he hits crazy mid-range to rim shots. Offensive monster. Very glad he's balling on this team.

If it's not one excuse it's another.

How about we just SUCK defensively? Altitude doesn't have shit to do with it.
