Official Game Thread: Cavaliers at Hawks GAME 4

[mtnbayou]

Bud failed in not playing Humphreys more early in the series.  

And he has failed in playing Korver too much.

Hump's playoff PER is 26.  Mike is shooting a blazing .615 (not Moose). Baze is basically equaling Al's scoring and rebounding.  SMH.

I thought Bud was in the top tier of coaches.  He's proved to me he's clearly second.  Many decisions (or non-decisions) he's made this season have been flat out horrendous.

Bud should be embarrassed after watching these minutes from Hump.  That was the best stretch we've gotten from the center position in this playoff series.

Scott's defense is so awful. If only they had a Hump like player who can play backup PF when Millsap get some rest.

[BigDog90]

Bud needs a new defensive coach. This double teaming anybody with the ball is getting them killed.

On top of that, Hump has only played 6 min.  Korver 12

Blow it up and rebuild. This formula obviously isnt working. We need to tank for a superstar.

[Thomas]

Humph is +5 in seven minutes and Al is -4 in eighteen minutes Humph has three more rebounds than Al. Come on Bud!

If we get a superstar, will people complain that he got 45pts like a lot of people did when Millsap did it?

[BigDog90]

It's amazing TT only got 2 rebounds. Poor Millsap going to be tired as a dog, can't trust Scott out there.

[Sothron]

And some here wondered why I wanted Kevin Love in our offense.

Speaking of that ...

Korver:  18 min ... 2 pts - 3 rebs ... and still in the game

Hump:  12 min ... 8 pts ( 2 threes made )- 7 rebs ... on the bench

I'm ready for ho-hum Teague and the ballerina Horford to be playing elsewhere next year.

We got Dennis & spend big bucks on a superior wing or Horf replacement. And of course Korver gone or relegated to 5-10 mins a game at best.

Blow it up. I'm not even mad when I say that but blow it up.

[Thomas]

We competed in three of the four games and this one came down to the wire. Don't think I will ever understand under using Humph. He had seven rebounds and blocked three shots in twelve minutes! Really questioning Bud right now.

People complained about that? Seriously? 

[Thomas]

Don't know what the cost is but I feel Humph has earned a roster spot here for next year. A lot of aggressiveness around the paint and he actually has shooting range. Should have been utilized so much more in the playoffs. Post playoff deflation coming on strong.

[BigDog90]

Hawks need an upgrade at backup SF and backup PF.  Baze and Millsap played too many minutes.

[Alex]

Bad calls and bad coaching lost the game.
