Game over ?

Unfortunately yes.

Game was over when Brown got 2  fouls before he scored a point

Yep, which is on Brad for stupidly changing the defensive matchups and putting him on Lebron to start. Such a dumb move that completely changed the complexion of this game from the get-go.

He was not put on Lebron to start. Cavs run pick and rolls to get Brown against Lebron

Nope, he was definitely on Lebron to start. Watch it closely. Brown was even guarding him off of made baskets when Cleveland was walking the ball up the floor, so it wasn't just off of switches.
Yeah, I noticed this too. Didn't know why after Morris has defended him so well. Trying to be too smart
Beacuse that puts brown on love or Thompson.  Pay attention people.
Yeah, but that's the thing. It's bad coaching to not have our big lineup starting, because of course LBJ is going to attack the guy who has been arguably our best player and get him into foul trouble. It was an absolute lack of foresight
We did this last game too.  And our big line up still puts brown in Bron.  Unless you mean we should bench brown for Morris.

No, it literally doesn't. Just like last game, Brown would be on Smith with Tatum and Horford on Thompson and Love. It worked for us last game, so why the hell would we change?? This has nothing to do with Brown on Love.

next half fam

Hopefully. Surely Brad saw how poorly that change fared and goes back to the game 2 defensive assignments or bigger with Baynes.

Not panicking (yet), but if they lose Game 4 in pathetic fashion too, then I'll panic.

 On the plus side ... we have home-court advantage! It looks like we will need it  ???

Go watch the game.  Brown started on Lebron in game two as well.  And you want Tatum on who?  He’s weaker than brown.

I'm calling it right now. We're gonna go on a crazy run and win the game. Championship teams do things like that. If we can win the championship this year, we can come back down big vs the 76ers like it was nothing before

After this game, the national media and ESPN will be back on the Lebronto bandwagon and predict the series will be won by LeCavs..  typical.

We started with the exact same matchups that we did on game two.

No one chews out their players better than Stevens at half time

I mean, to be honest most of them still had Cavs winning in 6 or 7 even before today   :P

Some changed their picks, yes, but quite a few kept theirs.

And lets be real, we could have swept CLE and the "Lebronto" bandwagon would live on for eternity
