How much of this can be attributed to our wacky, front-loaded preseason? What did we have, 2 days of practices before the first game, with like 10 games after this game until opening night?

I imagine we’ll look quite a bit better after having more practice time.

Cavs announcer actually just said something interesting: “You know what I’ve noticed in these two games with Boston - they’re doing a lot of one-on-one stuff. That’s not like them.”

I think that gets into a lot of what I was saying about practice above.

Could be the most frustrating pre-season game I've ever seen.

Yay. Rob.

Williams blocks 3 pointers fairly frequently. That's a cool quality in a center.
My biases, in order of fervor:
Pro:
Smart, Brown, Hayward, Tatum, Kemba, Grant Williams, Sleepy Williams, Edwards!

Anti:
Kanter, Semi, Theis, Poierier

Robert Williams is already making his present felt.

Deflects and alters a bunch of shots too.

Haven't been able to watch the game, is Tatum still taking 2006 Kobe shots?

That was a great pass by Williams to find Yabu in the corner.  Good awareness.

Yabu and Rob seems to be the only silver lining in this terrible preseason.

Our transition defense has been nonexistent.

Not sure I can tolerate watching the 4th.  I sure hope the C's put together a better effort than this on Oct 16.

President Stevens is experimenting. The outcome hasn't looked great but like Ryan gosling said we've gotta fail down here... so we don't fail... up there
