I don't know if it was the surgery or what but Mozgov is literally useless right now. He can't defend the rim, he can't make shots, he can't even fucking rebound and he's 7 foot tall
I'm still not sure if those checker patterns on the rockets uniforms are suppose racing flags or not

Where are the Splash Bros?
They posted Love up so often during the beginning of the season and he had insane efficiency. Now that Kyrie's back for some reason they haven't posted him up, like at all. Blatt needs to figure out these lineups or something
>>64935145

keep getting those blocks rockets
le dui man
Looks like the Cavs already gave up, Varejao is on the floor
remember kids practice, eat your wheaties, drink plenty of milk and always keep your hands low and throw them into defenders arms while throwing your head back sharply on every drive and you can be just like me!

post ups take their offense out of rhythm, its fine if the second unit is in but when lebron and kyrie are on the floor posting up love is a waste

>>64935337
cavs have a small lead
>>64935340
You're replying to a bot but I made the original post. If you watched the game last night, you saw how the Cavs offense basically fell apart in the second half and they ended up throwing poorly-constructed isos at James and Kyrie. That would be where Kevin Love can slow the game down and give the team a chance to keep the lead

Fifty big beautiful shades of black
I've watched a lot of NBA games but this home refball is out of control. This Cavs team is used to playing actual playoff basketball and the refs here blow the whistle if you tap a guy on the back
Varejao is such a flopping Brazilian
stop wasting free throw shots, Rockets
>>64935526
Harden is such a flopping nigger
>>64935520
Did you see last night's game? It was the absolute worst officiating I've ever seen in an NBA game.

Oh, I was trying to meme by using a random black movie star, but it turns out that was actually marlon wayans. Whoops
I knew I should have gone with Tyler Perry
>>64935545
There were some questionable calls but there always are. I'd say it was about average officiating
good effort from ariza
Fucking Love man
Jimmy Butler had 4 points against the Mavs today
Not quite like playing the sixers, is it?
who could the rockets trade for this mythical stretch 4 they need
>>64935604
he was so hyped last year. shame
>>64935572
If that was average I would stop watching basketball.
>>64935613
they are waiting on durant
>>64935613
allen crabbe
I bet Howard fucks Jason Terry in the ass after every game.
>>64935634
It was. Like I said there were questionable calls but they went both ways. I got a better look at some of the fouls afterwards and it wasn't that bad in general.
>>64935643
why would durant go there over staying in OKC or going to the wizards? Also how can they afford his 25 mil cap hit with howard and hardens contracts
>>64935648
that must be painful
>>64935572
Lol in the second half the refs let San Antonio get away with everything
>>64935648
Thats been known for quite some time. Why do you think Kobe called him a fag.
Trade Kevin Love for Howard?
>we cannot trust the fans
BASED JVG
>>64935661
dwights will be a fre agent this year. they can restructure it
>>64935677
That would actually be interesting. If the Cavs traded Mozgov and Howard gave a quarter of a shit it might pay off
NOW WATCH ME
>>64935677
That's like trading herpes for cancer. One you can deal with and still be alright. The other just fucking kills you
JVG showing once again why he's the most based commentator ever.
Brilliant idea
>>64935705
Love is totally good bro, I promise. Remember Goyim he was a monster on the TWolves and managed .500 in the West every year with a SHIT team.
>>64935726
I think he's talking about dwight being cancer
>>64935726
Love is a legitimate monster in his sweet spot. The only problem is that the Cavs haven't really utilized him there except for near the beginning of the season. Which wouldn't be that bad if he could just space the floor competently, but his 3pt shot is way off this year
>>64935750
Boo hoo. Fuck off with this need to get Love involved more. He gets plenty of touches and is just shooting crappy.
dwight pls
>ywn fuck Mallory Edens
>>64935750
Blatt needs to be fired, period. The sooner the better. The players (probably Lebron mostly) don't respect or listen to him.
They respect the assistant coach Lue way more but they need to hire a more respected coach ASAP. I'm a Clevelander and if they don't win a title this year it's probably fucking over. Lebron's been a big disappointment, too.
hold onto the ball harden
>>64935777
I'm not sure why you're acting like a pussy. It's completely true. You wouldn't expect Curry to be able to consistently score well if his team only fed him the ball in the post. It's pretty much the same with Love. They haven't gotten him the ball where he can use it best.
>>64935786
Literally who? Pics pls. Bella Thorne is my waifu
>>64935802
Love does get touches in the post
>>64935795
>this whole post
opinion discarded
>>64935795
You're a literal mouthbreathing retard and you're making Clevelanders look stupid. Don't bitch about firing the coach and how the season's been a huge disappointment when it's not even half over, they're number one in the East, and they've competed very well against historically good teams (Spurs and Warriors).
>>64935795
Calm down. They had a way worse record at this time last year. If they still look like this in two months then you can worry.
>>64935814
its the bucks owners daughter
>>64935795
is there a single coach lelbron would actually respect outside of popovich or maybe pjax out of retirement
>>64935822
He did. But since Kyrie came back he hasn't gotten nearly as many. He's reverted back to his role last year, which is almost exclusively a three point shooter. He still helps the team, but if you're looking for big numbers he's not going to get them out there.
>>64935846
Coach K
jaime maggio > memerry edens
>>64935831
>historically good teams
>Warriors
>>64935852
Kyrie and LeBron need touches more than K Love. And Love can help stretching the floor. He doesn't need to put up big numbers to help the team. Anyway, his problem is defensively more than anything.
>>64935860
I don't give a shit about how good they might actually be. Their win streak makes them historically good.
I'm already dreading the 3rd quarter
wait did the commercial break guy just say shit on tv?
>>64935822
>>64935831
Shut up, fags. If you actually lived in Cleveland you'd know Lebron hates Blatt and it's a cancerous aura in the locker room.
It's Lebrons fault and he's been a bigger diva than he ever was even under Mike fucking Brown, but it's bad for the team.
>>64935882
Obviously Kyrie and LeBron need a lot of touches because they can create off the dribble. But if you watched the game last night you know that we can't just let LeBron iso every single possession because he really isn't that consistent anymore. Love can be a big force on this team if they let him.
I agree with the defense though. He needs to play more like a big man.
Go cavs
>>64935846
Literally any coach that isn't a pushover that panders to Lebron.
>>64935802
>>64935750
The cavs aint gonna utilize love until they need him. He's their trump card. They aren't playing their trump card in the regular season. Miami did the same thing with the Bron and Wade pick n roll.
What's important for him is to work on hitting 3s for now
>>64935884
>Happening right now
>History
I'm not sure you understand what hes saying. They werent very good until Curry came. The Spurs are historically good though so you got that right.
>>64935914
Love was 4-10 and played shitty defense. If he wants more touches, i'd tell him to get better defensively first
>>64935903
>it's a cancerous aura
You idiots eat up whatever the local sports media shits out. Please tell me more about what the locker room climate is like with your extensive insider knowledge that comes from living in the same city the team is located in
>>64935927
lebron would never allow that, he has way too much influence in that lockerroom and organization, and desu i cant blame him, cleveland was absolute garbage before he came back despite having a ridiculous amount of first overall picks
>>64935926
they aren't winning today
>>64935943
this
>>64935943
When EVERYONE from local beat guys to the big national NBA guys report it, it's a pretty fucking strong possibility.
>>64935933
I mean "historical" as in what is happening now will go down in history. Not that it literally happened in the past. Say what you will but going by stats alone the Warriors are likely a top 10 team in the modern NBA.
who dislocated their shoulder in the chicago game?
also i wantto fuck the shit out of doris burke
>the Cavs fags are arguing with each other
lel that's the sign it's over
>>64935814
>not knowing my bae Mallory
Fuck outta here bitch nigga
>>64935966
Not arguing that fact, just your wording was a little off. It does kinda suck that Curry will usher in a new wave of pure shooters and physicality is leaving the game though. But I guess shit has to evolve to stay fresh.
>>64935943
He also knows what soap and deodorant every player uses. You get insider news via a weekly newsletter only available people living in the city.
Holy fuck why did I start Love over Whiteside on draftkings
>>64935964
>>64935971
It's so predictable the way Cleveland fans jump on whatever storyline the media forces on them. Last year the Cavs were 19-20 at about this point in the season and suddenly Blatt was going to be fired, Love and LeBron were leaving, the players were coming to blows, and the sky was falling.
Then they put the pieces together and everything was quiet and happy again.
Now, despite the team this year actually being much better than the team last year at this point, the fans' expectations are way higher and the sky's falling again as soon as they drop close, road, regular season games against the Warriors and Spurs.
I know we haven't been there before but we need to act like we've been there before or we'll just keep embarrassing ourselves

See that's what Love needs to do
Love is a professional 3 bricker
After being a bleeding-heart wizard fan so long, I realized I wasn't happy. So I did some serious NBA research and decided which team that I could root for would give me the utmost level of satisfaction, regardless of winning and losing. I've decided that rooting for lebron would be the best for my overall mental well-being.

>>64936264
The guy can't even shave, why the hell would you think he had work ethic?
>>64936036
I get that panicking over smaller stuff makes us look stupid but you make it sound like there aren't very legitimate concerns with this team.
When you have the Spurs and Warriors in the Finals you need to be better than the Cavs are.
How many guys are there out there who are both the best offensive AND defensive players on their teams? I can only think of Butler and Kawhi, maybe LeBron when he wants to.
>>64936248
It's hard to find anything better, that's for sure
Make sure you buy a LeBron jersey and scream and yell like a dickhole whenever they come to Washington
>>64936264
Ya, I've been a Thunder fan since their creation (I live in Nebraska and fuck Denver) and I miss the good ol' days when he was GOAT 6th man. I guess he got his wish though. Didn't want glory, just money.

>>64936292
>>64935063
I pick Or
Both are hot trash
>>64936292
draymond is gsw's best defender, although he rarely scores a lot (he gets like 10-15 on average, 20+ is uncommon)
>>64936315
But he's not close to their best offensive player. Maybe on another team.
>rockshits score 40 points in 3 1/2 quarters
>muh legod
you never recovered
>>64936314
I don't get it. Why do people mess with a guy because of his hairline? Who gives a shit?
>>64936290
How about just stay healthy this time.
LeBron took 2 games by himself, almost had a 3-0 lead. The Warriors might not even make the Finals again desu. Spurs are better.
>>64936254
thanks for the reminder
>>64936337
>>64936337
desparation
Jesus Christ Love is suck a liability on the court its embarrassing.
>>64936290
All teams have legitimate concerns. The Warriors are too reliant on jump shooting and the Spurs don't have a ton of energy in the tank on defense, for example. Both of those teams have total liability players on defense.
Right now the Cavs don't have any problems that should be an enormous cause for concern. Don't forget that Blatt is constantly experimenting with lineups during the regular season to see what works and what doesn't. He works a miracle last year, so I for one will give him the benefit of the doubt this year.
>>64936337
Nothing else to really pick on him about considering he is an all time great player and all around good dude
>>64936327
yeah, i know he's no where near the best offensive player on gsw but that's not his role most games since he plays a very specific and niche role (defending against any position on the other team) that only really works for gsw
curry doesn't look as good without him (although it was just one game in denver)
>>64936340
No prob, bob
>>64936354
He's not a liability though you pleb
I remember uses to get picked on because he would get lazy on the defensive end but god Haren has taken this to a whole new level he is literally one of the worst defenders on the league
So what's the deal with the Houston uniforms? Are they sponsored by Checkers or something?
>commercial for national Warriors Bulls game
>consists entirely of Warriors highlights
>>64936383
The thing is he could be very good. He's just fat as fuck and lazy this season for some reason.
>>64936401
used to be a common marking on rockets during the old Apollo era days
>>64936418
Dwight Coward is his teammate.

Just a hypothesis
>the city of Houston
This is fucking comical
They don't even have 50 points and it's almost the fourth quarter
Are the Rockets going to get another coach fired? Are they going for the record of most coaches fired in a year?
