[JayBirdHawk]

Refs didn't want to call that foul smh.

[terrell]

WE gonna need something better than AJ and Wes Matthews off the bench

AJ should be in the Gleague

Wes' shooting has gone cold.  

[JayBirdHawk]

We will be on a world of hurt if no Dre and JJ.  

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Hawks aren't going to ever box out, are they?

You knew it was coming

[MaceCase]

Cavs are relentless right now

[JayBirdHawk]

We start giving up ORebs - we get into trouble.

[terrell]

So frustrating... Building leads then piss it away!  

Murray is still broken, and now Trae cant shoot again.. This might not end well

But I might rather be behind than have a big lead to blow.. lol

Welp…guess we need Dre more than most of us want to admit.

[JayBirdHawk]

We gonna need Trae, DJ and Bogi to get hot in the 2nd half.

[MaceCase]

I don't know if it's the tournament or there's some sort of rivalry but this game's got a lil sprinkling of that playoff intensity

[JayBirdHawk]

17-2 run by the Cavaliers when Dre went out. Yikes.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Quin is going to have to stop being stubborn, and try a bigger lineup against a team like Cleveland at times.

Mobley is dominating this game on the boards and with 2nd chance opportunities.

They initially did ok on the ORebs. Cavs had only 2 in the 1st quarter, then things fell apart with about 4 minutes left in 2nd quarter.

I think CC sat too long.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Around the league.  All games at the half

 

Charlotte 44 - New York 53

Brooklyn 52 - Toronto 44

Milwaukee 59 - Miami 62

Chicago 50 - Boston 69

This is the truth.   CC has been playing pretty good.  Defensively and rebounds.

CC can't get all of the rebounds though.  He needs help.

Just play CC and OO together for 2 - 3 minutes, and see what happens.

[JayBirdHawk]

If no Hunter in 2nd half does Bogi get the start?

Trae, DJ, Bogi, Bey CC? ....or start OO.

We were able to go up by ten by straightfoward basketball.   Smart Basketball.   We need to get back to that.
