Re: Cavs @ Pacers
Indiana is not that much better than we are. We have to re-group and get ready for the next few at home.

Re: Cavs @ Pacers
Dont get down guys. Its just one loss. We just didnt bring it tonight, everyone including lebron was off. We were bound to get our third loss at some time, at least it wasnt against someone like utah. And dont forget we are 9-3. Thats good.

Re: Cavs @ Pacers
The Cavaliers are pretty much right in line with where I expected them to be in the first month.
They are actually one game ahead of schedule because I picked them to lose the Philly game and finish 10-4 in November.

Re: Cavs @ Pacers
I am not disappointed by the loss, just the magnitude. Indiana didn't play well yet abused us. We have some things to work on to be able to deal with defensive pressure. Our control has been probably our weakest point to our season.

Re: Cavs @ Pacers
Gut check time and we upchucked. Oh well. I know Z had foul trouble, but wtf is it with him only taking 3 shots? That's the only part of this I don't get. Lebron pushed too hard and ended up with some bad shot selection and way more turnovers. The fingerpointing can go on and on - except for Drew, pretty much doing his thing - but let's just move on and win these games at home before heading west.

Re: Cavs @ Pacers
Well that was ugly. Cavs were never in this one. The entire team went cold in the 1st half.
Cavs have been playing very well but I don't like how in their matchups with 2 of the best teams in the league (Spurs & Pacers) they've gotten their asses kicked.
Not sure why Brown had LeBron in there for pretty much the entire 1st 44 minutes of the game especially when he wasn't having his best game.
Donyell needs to pick it up again. His shot has been off and his D pretty bad the last 2-3 games. Bad defensive effort tonight from Jones too.
It's just one game. Learn from it and move on. I expect a big bounce back Sat against the T-Wolves.

Re: Cavs @ Pacers
If it was 98-94, I wouldn't be mad, not at all. Indiana is a good team and it's at the Conseco Fieldhouse.
But, once again, we DID NOT BRING IT. We are a terrible road team, bottom line. The shots were not dropping, the pressure was on, and we lost. 6-0 at home is good, but then you see the 3-2 on the road. The 3 games? Toronto, Orlando, and Philly. Philly was a tough matchup, but they're less together and less talented than us. The other games? SAS, Memphis, and Indiana, tough, playoff teams. Basically got brought to school in each of them.
It's just atrocious, really. LeBron doing poorly... I can take that, Ron Artest is a great defender. But the rest of the team really stunk it. I was happy to see J O'neal on the bench in the first half, but damn, did we not take advantage. We allowed the perimeter to have their way with us and we had absolutely no answer. Larry Hughes was mobbed by everybody. Without him executing on offense, we're pretty much the same team as last year.
Embarassing loss. Truly terrible. Sickening. I wanted to puke up the turkey, but I don't even want to waste it. We better bounce back on Saturday. It'll be a test to hold Garnett, but it's at home, so I think we can pull it. Bah, bah, bah humbug.

Re: Cavs @ Pacers
Hey guys, if you can't loss to 3 good teams on the road, then who can you lose to? I mean, Indiana got SMASHED by Charlotte...that doesn't mean they are a horrible team. We got soundly by a good team. We had to lose eventually. I don't like it, but it isn't embarrassing or sickening...just a loss. Just an off night...we may not be as good as we want to be, but that takes time.
