In regards to last night's game and last night's game only, y'all still running with the Kyrie narrative that he played zero defense? While Bron visually got cooked in front of everyone's eyes by Gordon Hayward?

Perhaps I should have been more specific, he has more players that can hits shots whether out of the post, on the perimeter, PNR, PNP or finishing. Players that don't need the ball in their hands to be effective. Not only that, but Wall doesn't have to share playmaking duties with any other player. Bron out here handling the ball near-equal the amount of time Kyrie does.


Breh, everybody trying to throw the Point GAWD under the bus when all he was doing was trying to play "LeBron ball":sas2:


Kyrie goes for 34 points on 52% FG and has 1 TO, plus only gives up 6 points on 33%FG to the opposing starting PG, and he's the blame:wow:

LeBron goes for 31 points on 44% FG and has 4 TOs, and gives up 21 points on 58% FG to the opposing starting SF, plus the game winning basket...and Im supposed to act like I didnt watch the game:wow:


The blaming tactics that comes along with playing alongside LeBron James:whew:

You wasnt rooting for the Lakers to win games while living in LA with it being your "hometown team"?:mjpls:

It's still 78 games left in the season...95% of the season is still ahead.


Anybody that writes the Cavs off this early is a clown:manny:

thats fair, but Kyrie had playmaking duties with no rival last few years and his playmaking was never high. Its not Bron, its him.

Saying that, I have no issue with the game Kyrie had last night. The team needed points. But it was his first great scoring game this season. They all need to work on their understanding.
Kyrie isn't the greatest passer nor is he the greatest at putting a player in a position to score, but he never has had a competent team that can hit shots. So it only makes sense, if another player comes in to take playmaking duties off him, his opportunities to get assist are gonna be nearly cut in half.

CJ Miles has NEVER been any more than a bench player that shoots 41% for his career (career high 12.8 points)
Alonzo Gee has NEVER been any more than a bench player that shoot 42% for his career (career high 10.6 points)
Tristan Thompson has barely been in the league, and is still progressing as a player (still hasn't been established if he's legit enough to be a building block)
Andrew Bynum is basically a shell of his former self with all the knee issues and is struggling to shoot above 40% for the season

He's played a ton of games with lineups just like that, either bench-caliber players or players that are still too young to be consistent. Dude's always been in stuck in two minds of what needs to be done...... keep passing to dudes who can't hit their shots or take it upon himself to do the scoring..... not an ideal habit to be having..... but one that he felt was necessary given the situation.

thats fair

my issue is the same excuse has been used again in this thread for this team. He just not a playmaker. Great scorer tho
