Honest question: is EF worse than RJ at this point?

We’re going to have uphill battle. We DO have home court so that’s a big plus. But we’re gonna have to figure out that double team on Brunson and how to get more spacing

Yes, RJ tries to defend. He was guarding Garland most of the game. Wait, what ? Lol

Please, for the sake of all that's good...come on. Deuce is ready, just for 4 mins in the 4th..

Seriously—- maybe the worst thing tonight was we allowed Mitchell the night off while Cavs destroyed Garland/Barrett matchup— again 26-2 in 1st half — now we will have both to deal with.

We’d be a far better giving Deuce RJs minutes and matching him up on Garland….kill 2 birds with 1 stone…improve D and remove RJ offense.

Get Brunson out of the game

RJ plays defense like an 80 year old man trying to get off the sofa

WTF is he doing.

Randle is garbage Brunson is awful. Just rest them. It happens.

Put in rose / Fournier / McBride live to fight another day.

He didn’t adjust. We got the split we got what we needed.


Makes no sense to have our big 3 in the game so late when down by 25.

I wouldnt call it old school, just stubborn and egotistical. Having said that, I dont put the loss on Thibs. No one really stepped up, like a cascade failure. Game like these happen, its what adjustments Thibs makes.

It is worth a try. It can't get worse than what we are seeing from RJ.
CleaverGreene @ 4/18/2023 9:52 PM
103-76 and JB and Julius are still in...both coming off injuries.

Yup.

MS @ 4/18/2023 9:53 PM
Fucking Thibs. Trash.

Wtf is he doing. Embarrassing.

This is the kind of stuff that should have the FO's attention, its reckless.

Pathetic and they definitely didn't make it easier for themselves. More turnovers in the second quarter than they average in a game. No se se of urgency and the defensive intensity wasn't there. It was like they figured they could just walk in and coast to a win and Cleveland punched them in the mouth.

Very disappointing.

Same here — felt the whistle was mostly one way until score out of hand BUT we were absolutely outplayed and while their adjustments seemed to work we had no adjustments.

Panos @ 4/18/2023 9:56 PM
Obi should have gotten more minutes tonight

We all saw it coming, still cant believe he's that dense. Right after Brunson taking a shot in garbage time to end the season.
