lebron's teammates are combined 15-65 from 3 pt land

[hoopster42]

this is 23% shooting from deep from lebron's supporting cast. how much of this is great defense from orlando and how much is just poor shooting, maybe just nerves, from the cavs players? please don't say its a combo of both, because i know it is, i just want to know how much is the orl D. i have seen cleve players missing wide open 3s all series, am i the only one? the poor shooting cannot continue, or can it?

The problem is the Cav utility players drank the kool-aid and assumed that Orlando would not pose as big of a challenge as they have. Now, they feel the pressure and since they are not superstars do not know how to manage it.

They've tried to guarantee their way out of it, and that's backfired worse than a malfunctioning firearm.

keep the slump going! Orlando closes out tonight

Lou, i agree that the cavs players drank their kool aid before the series started but considering that they were 3-8 in their last 11 vs orl coming into this series including 1-2 this yr, i think they are galactically stupid to come in overconfident, if anything, gm 1 should have shook them up. coming down to orlando tied 1-1, i do not believe for a second that they were overconfident though, they knew they had to get no worse than a split and could not do it. if those guys are 18-65 instead of 15-65, they might be up 3-1 as the margin of vict in 2 of the losses have been 1 pt and 2 pts

Take away Lebron dunks i think he is shooting about the same thing

[dwaechte]

LeBron's been getting them wide open 3's all series, no reason they should be shooting this badly.

Cleve just does not have the players to win. If they every had another good player it would be a joke.

Cleve would go 77-5 and win the title

cleveleland gets off to fast starts, and fades 2nd half

I'm so tired of the double talk with regard to the Cavaliers.

All season long we heard how the Cavaliers were the best "team" in the league, as opposed to a collection of individual superstars, how Lebron magically made guys better etc.

Now just because they are getting outplayed against a team that they're seriously overvalued against, they have only one good player and they suck?

the supporting cast played so much better tonight and hopefully they'll carry that into the gm 6 sat night
