Terrible first half with only a couple of bright spots. I don’t know how we keep Korver open all the time and defensively switching Rozier onto James is killing us. We look good when we made purposeful cuts into the paint and kicked the ball out or moved the ball around
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

Win or lose, can we at least be competitive in the 2nd half and not lose by 30 please.

Tristan Thompson is destroying us. Cbs has to counter. I might try Yabu...

Thompson making Lue look like Einstein and Stevens like Gump 😁

We have no answer for him- not sure why Baynes not out there more

Bad reffing is a form of bearing false witness

watching Smart and Rozier this half, is there really anyone thinking the C's would have difficulty paying the contracts for these 2 in two years?  neither is showing they're any better than a MLE offer if that much

Couldn't finish the quarter.  At least a dozen points squandered on missed bunnies.
 

Could be closer, but probably shouldn't be -- Cavs clearly better tonight.  Maybe C's can respond in the 2nd -- game isn't out of reach yet.

Brad deserves as much criticism as anyone for his lack of adjustments from game 3.  Yes we're shorthanded, but our defensive schemes make no sense right now.  68 points is a testament to that.

We can't keep switching guys like Rozier and Tatum on Lebron. It's killing us.

Smart has had been about as bad as he can be tonight, though it doesn't really matter as nobody else has played much better either.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but not having Larkin is killing us right now. Rozier and Smart are playing poorly but we have to play at least one of them
I'm bitter.

One thing is for sure, Stevens has lost all confidence in Monroe

Well, better start the 2nd half on a run, or this one is over for good.

That were only down 15 is an absolute miracle
I agree. We can Turn this game around with a simple run. The question is do we have the use and desire?

we only have 3 turnover, but all of them were from Smart, and all killers.

But more importantly, if we can't make it harder on the Cavs when they are on offense, we really don't have a chance in this series.
