King James holds court: Cavs vs Rockets on ESPN Game Thread
- Thread starter Tha_Mac
- Start date
Terrible analysis. This Xavs team is capable of playing elite championship defense which will keep them in every game. That's been evident in both road games against the Spurs and Warriors. Kyrie isn't even at 100% yetI don't know...I'm still not feeling it with the Cavs this year. Maybe Love and Irving and Shump just need to keep working their way back, but it doesn't feel right. Sure, they're doing exactly what they need to, but the Spurs and Warriors look like finely tuned machines and Cavs look like a team of streak shooters barely held together by Lebron.
Love is just trash too. I thought the Wolves' owner was just talking sour grapes when he said that Love would be exposed playing in games that mean something, but holy crap. Maybe it's not complete bullshyt that the Cavs would have been better off with Wiggins than him. This is the guy who was picked 2nd-team All-NBA? Because he shoots threes at a 37% clip and neglects defense for rebounding? I mean, how is he going to help them in the playoffs this year?
Shooting? He'll probably start choking when the games get big.
Outlet passes? Fastbreak chances dry up fast in the playoffs
Rebounding? Mosgov/TT/Lebron already have all of that they need
Defense? Oh God.
Last year was the year to beat the Warriors with this squad. Irving's presence alone, or a bit more breathers for a 7-man rotation that was playing its ass off, or even just figuring out how to use Mosgov right - any of them would have been enough. This year, with GSW going into a next level of confidence, Spurs reloading again, and Mosgov doing I-don't-know-what....it's going to be much harder this year.
He was bout 70-75% in that Xmas game. Love has been severely overrated tho. He's a liability in the 4th qtr because of his sub par defense.

Go Cavs! #LetEmKnow
I'm not worried at all Cavs proved they could play D against the other elite teams. Currently we are number 2 in Defense with a 70% Kyrie and a slumping kevin loveI don't know...I'm still not feeling it with the Cavs this year. Maybe Love and Irving and Shump just need to keep working their way back, but it doesn't feel right.

I dont know what the nikka who you quoted talking about. Kyrie and Curry are in a tier by themselves when it comes to ball handling.
Horrible comparison. I can tell you never watched that Philly game.
Jimmy played 50 minutes - who on the Cavs squad played 50 minutes against the Spurs?
Jimmy had 53 points - who on the Cavs squad had to carry a similar scoring load?
Jimmy accounted for 56% of the Bulls production - who on the Cavs squad had to carry a similar offensive load?
Jimmy was guarding the best wing player all throughout the game - who on the Cavs squad had to carry a similar defensive load for 50 minutes?
Jimmy was without Pau and Rose - who on the Cavs squad had to deal without both of their main offensive options?
Answer carefully.
Kyrie has better handles, but there isn't THAT much of a difference.

You'll make your numbers justify whatever your narrative is. Fact is your self proclaimed best SG in the league played a terrible game. Just admit it and stop always trying to be right.
STOP IT. You don't watch the Bulls play therefore you need to STFU.
STOP IT. You don't watch the Bulls play therefore you need to STFU.
Naw nikka you need to Shut. The. fukk. Up. Your word is not bond. Don't nobody take your bullshyt as gospel. Do you make some good points yes but you acting like a 5 year old telling people to shut up whenever they don't have the same view as you or you don't agree with what they say.
I get it you watch every fukking game and I have stated I watch every Rockets game. Now Jimmy Butler had a subpar game it don't matter whether I watched the game or not he was off there are no excuses I'm sure he wouldn't make any. Admit that less than 24 hours after you anoint Butler the best SG in the league he goes out there and stinks up the joint.
But you won't you will make all kinda claims about the load that he carries etc. But all of that does not change the fact that he had a terrible game. You're so blinded by your own narcissism that you won't admit that he had a bad game whether I watched it or not. Numbers never lie. 4 pts, 2-11 fg, 0-4 3pt, 36 mins with a -7.
I don't tell people to shut up if I disagree with them - I do however tell them to shut up if they say dumb shyt (which you're doing). You didn't watch the game, so how the hell would you know how Butler played? You then had the nerve to say 'don't use the back-to-back as an excuse because the Cavs had a back-to-back and beat the Rockets' - like that is even remotely similar as to what Butler did against the 76ers.

That's all that needs to be said. You didn't watch the game so you should just STFU.
WRONG.
I've called Butler the best SG since the start of the season; long before that game.
Of course he didn't have a good game. WHAT THE fukk IS WRONG WITH YOU. That's not the issue here. The issue is you commenting on players and games you don't watch then saying I can't use that 'excuse' as if you know what you're talking about. SERIOUSLY - WHAT THE fukk IS WRONG WITH YOU?
You out here speaking on shyt you don't even watch - then having the nerve to say what I can and can not use in argument for a player that I actually watched. Where I used reasoning for why he didn't play well, yet you just looked at the box score to determine how bad he played and the reasoning behind it. How ignorant are you?

How the fukk does someone say this shyt if they didn't watch the game and therefore don't know what's going on.
How the hell can you compare what Butler did against the 76ers to what any of the Cavs players did against the Spurs

So you REALLY gonna try to get out of this by saying becuz I didn't watch the game I don't know how Jimmy played. So now 4 pts on 2-11 shooting in 36 minutes with a -7 is not a bad game or isn't playing bad?
You're slow as hell. This all started because you said this dumb shyt -
How the fukk did you come to this conclusion when the Cavs back-to-back situation is different to what Butler did against the 76ers? Again, I'll ask you -
Jimmy played 50 minutes - who on the Cavs squad played 50 minutes against the Spurs?
Jimmy had 53 points - who on the Cavs squad had to carry a similar scoring load?
Jimmy accounted for 56% of the Bulls production - who on the Cavs squad had to carry a similar offensive load?
Jimmy was guarding the best wing player all throughout the game - who on the Cavs squad had to carry a similar defensive load for 50 minutes?
Jimmy was without Pau and Rose - who on the Cavs squad had to deal without both of their main offensive options?
That is the reason why he had a bad game against the Mavs because he was running on fumes from the night before. You can't say fukk that excuse, then use the Cavs as an example. Just take your L and KIM.
