Kyrie has been a disaster. Horribly inefficient on offense, pathetic on defense. If LeBron wants to stay in Cleveland, I'm not sure he's going to want Kyrie to stay.

He is not a team player or willing to take charges , give up his body ......like Smart does .

Irving plays sissy defense ......like Love



Who on this forum said, their scorers can't defend, and their defenders can't score? Perfect analogy.

I dislike LeBron as much as anyone, but he's doing what he can.  Not his best game by any means with all of the turnovers, but his supporting cast is failing him miserably. 

So far this series has confirmed how overrated Love is.  Irving too.  Also demonstrates how pathetic the East is, despite improved teams this year.  This is the Cavs first true test of the playoffs and it shows.

Cavs ....play terrible TEAM ball......passing is terrible ,  ......it's just one on one ball.......only Bron tries to make an assist .

The Cavs are built to out street ball other teams ......Good coached teams can beat them

No knock on Lue .......but there needs to be a coach in charge ......no LeBron and the whiners

It's true.  The Cavs play like they're built - three top heavy players who need the ball to be effective.  They don't have enough quality players who function well off the ball.

The versatility and chemistry on GS on the other hand is top notch.

Right !.....not enough team players .....Jefferson plays ball the right way

What can they do, blow it up? Does LBJ want that?

Blow it up? I'm talking about trading one player.

Cavs should have started the series with Mozgov, Thompson, and Love all in there with Lebron and Kyrie after seeing how much trouble OKC's length gave GS.

Instead they tried to outshoot GS with smaller guys.

Well said .....been thinking this all along.

Yeah, they also made a mistake ditching Varejao for Frye.

Warriors have outscored the Cavs by 84 points in 185 minutes this season.

as soon as jones stepped on the court I screamed, "HE IS IN THERE TO INJURE CURRY!" Look at the shot he got on him. I just know dirty tactics when I see them.

Imagine if GS went through with the trade involving Klay Thompson for Kevin Love.  What a mistake that would have been.  They need to thank Jerry West.

Meanwhile, the Cavs gave up Wiggins, Bennett (obviously a bust, but a #1 pick), and also surrendered two first rounders for Mozgov.  These moves will be looked at as a colossal failure if the Cavs fail to win a championship, which is looking increasingly likely.

Still think the Cavs will win 1 in Cleveland. Gentleman's sweep.

This is a perfect example of, sometimes having "stars" isn't enough. Chemistry, balance, and character also play a part.

The Cavs will rebound in Cleveland, but they don't have the team to beat the Warriors.
