how does that improve their chances????
They'll be able to put a better defensive lineup on the floor. Love wasn't making shots and was playing some terrible D.
I think they'll trade him this summer.

Who gets the call for Love? Channing Frye?

I say they go small with Jefferson. Just a guess.
Lebron had Miller and Battier, now he has Shump and Jr.

Have you seen JR numbers this playoffs before the finals? JR lack of production has more to do with Cleveland's lack of offensive ball movement.

You make it sound like JR choking in the playoffs when it really matters is something new, he's been doing it pretty much his entire career. Only so much you can blame on lack of ball movement with JR's skill set.
To Jr's credit, he not partying, not getting indignant and throwing elbows. Second trip to finals for him, one would think he'd be more involved.
basically, when you rolling with Knick castoffs, your depth is not there.

He plays with two isolation players and against a very good defensive team that knows how to help and recover. Also, ever series really matters or else you do not get to advance.

JR has passed up plenty of open looks this series, taking very few shot attempts. However you want to frame it, its been a while since JR didnt royally F up in the playoffs in a given year. That was his MO with the Knicks.
Tonight JR was smarter, looking to do other things when his shot was off which eventually paid dividends.

He is having a better game tonight. Shump on the other hand continues to play poorly on both ends of the court.

JR last shot before halftime would've put better insurance for a Cavs win at Half-Time if it counted
The Cavs TEAM do expect JR to show some winning consistency in this FINAL series
Yeah .. wasup with Shump .. he nervous or trying to hard to score

If you would have told me his rookie year that Shumpert still wouldnt be able to make a layup with any consistency after all these years I would have said that you were crazy. Those haircuts take time I guess.

Consistency is one quality no team should bank on when it comes to JR, no matter how much they pay. JR is having a good night tonight though.
Havent seen a dunk like that from LeBron in a while.
It must sucks to be Kevin Love

that is too much bull sh1t for a guy like you. Love has played great at home and bad on the road. You just wanted to blame him ... have at it.
I guess JR is shooting like steve nash because love is out? And uncle drew likes being home? and tyrone lue takes his pills that he keeps forgetting at home?

I'm not blaming him but others will and that's why it sucks to be Love. No need to overreact.
