Live Thread: Cavs @ Rockets
2015-03-01
Sorry for the delay guys!
LeBron is back and looking to take down another MVP rival in The Beard…
Cavs look to get back on the winning track (even without Kyrie). Going to be a challenging one today against the Rockets… I believe the Cavs will ride another strong performance from LBJ to victory…
Prediction: Cavs 115-111. Fire up the comments!
This was a good game for the Cavs to play.
We should get one shot
Game over! I don’t care if they give us 0.3 seconds
Honestly I think Lebron needs another two week rest. Think about that drive that he was fouled on. A younger / more fresh lebron would have dunked that.
I want LeBron to shoot free throws until he can’t raise his arms…
There’s a lot more to this loss than missing free throws.
Sort of yes technically…but also not at all.
Without question. LBJ is not playing winning basketball. He’s playing MVP basketball. that doesn’t beat teams.
Is there really? Like what?
I hope to God this serves as motivation for him to play within the team. Not just practice free throws, but trust Blatt and his teammates to win with him. He deserves completely blame for this game. Complete.
I agree with you 100%. But it is the coaching staff fault too.
It was meant to happen. Good effort by the whole Cavs team but can’t win missing all those FT’s.
This game was won… that was just inexcusable…
I love that LeBron wanted to outplay Harden, but man what a terrible job at the line. Gave this game away. We’re the better team and we blew it.
Unbelievable… just hurts to watch
No excuses! LeBron had plenty of opportunity. In the end result not that big of a deal. It’s only one loss.
MVP’s don’t miss 8 free throws… What a horror show…
Holy what the why the heck can he not shoot a dang shot without oh my gosh I am raving alone at work like a lunatic
Thee has to be more than 1.5 seconds left.
That was amazing. 3 of 11 from the line. Absolutely pathetic.
Coming in late, but good God. What happened here?
This will serve as some serious motivation
LeBron is a choke artist today. Unbelievable choke job.
Mentally beaten today.. unreal.
This is the worst free throw display I’ve ever seen…
Missed flipping free throws????!!!!!
Unbelievable. No excuses for missing these.
FINALLY, they call the foul!!!!
Okay LeBron has to make his FTs now.
Kevin love gets a shot here?
Use lebron as decoy and get JR a shot.
Ref union making their point.
There has to be more than 1.5 seconds left.
See that K Love move that forced harden to give it up because the left hand drive was blocked.
Great heads up play by JR!
We need to end it here!
So now we get a complet replay of what just sent this to overtime. Let’s see if we can do something other than LBJ dribble step back long two. Like, oh, I don’t know, some passing and maybe a shot in the post?
I want to see KLove win it for the Cavs!
I don’t think he’s taken a shot in overtime.
We get another chance here…they better call a freakin foul
Okay need to win it here!
LBJ FOR THREEEEE!!!!
Harden trying to hook LeBron!
WOW… that was some kind of make up call or something…
That was bizarre.
Harden is such a punk!
Lebron needs much stronger left hand drive.
Cavs just don’t look like there’s any sense of urgency…
That looks to be the game!
hubie brown has a ” man crush ” on T.T. —–WHAT A GAME BY T.T.
Cavs giving this game away. Pathetic jump shots over and over.
LeBron stop with the stanky leg!
LeBron losing this game for us in OT.
Beverly smack talking to James. Love it!
Great effort by TT. Can Blatt draw a play for Love or JR for a 3 or a decent shot.
I don’t know how TT can even lift his arms at the end of the game.
I wish that ref would stop pointing like that… always looks like he’s pointing for possession instead of timeout call…
Thompson is a beast!
TT the MVP today!
Without a doubt.
Refs just giving Rockets extra possessions…
I hate you Beverly!
CALL THE OVER THE BACK!
Wow, just unbelievable. You need to make that call.
I’m just glad these guys will need to run the Western Conference playoff gauntlet…
Harden is a bum with his right hand.
JR SWISH! Needed that one!
that was a ridiculous bail-out from the refs… what a surprise…
LBJ has 34 pts on 31 shots. Russell Westbrook thinks that inefficient.
Yeah can’t remember the last time we had an OT game. TT with 5th foul.
Ariza also has 5 fouls…
agree with leo—no imagination on that last 23 sec’s—–everyone watching the game knew was going to shoot —-had our chance —don’t think we can pull it out in o.t.
Why even bother playing 4 other shooters with LBJ if he isn’t going to pass it. Faith in your teammates is why you made this team LBJ
Is this our first OT of the season?
When was the last time the Cavs had an overtime game? Seems like forever…
LeBron should’ve passed that. But I knew he wouldn’t.
Could have been a great way to end the game… a dish to KLove for the winning shot… build up some confidence…
I called it during the timeout. Dribble step back contested BS shot. I know Blatt didn’t call that play. A big part of me wants him to bench LBJ for the whole overtime, even if it means we lose. Put guys on the court that will run your offense.
23 seconds to run a play…good god can’t find anything better?!
That’s all on LBJ. I know Blatt didn’t call that.
Blues. Better keep that defensive intensity up
LeBron really annoying today. He’s great, but what a pathetic final shot.
Why are you taking a fadeaway three? At least fake a drive.
Lazy hero ball by LeBron.
Not even a three… deep St. Weirdo two…
Don’t know why he didn’t drive it…
Well, that was fitting…
Dang it how do we not get that in? Not having a timeout is such a problem
Delly has been having trouble getting the ball in today…
