Well it wasn’t pretty especially offensively but they did what they had to do.

Gotta play better in Orlando

Allen with 20 big rebounds

Vs a Power Forward masquerading as a 5?!?!?

Simply keep the same energy across this board for all posters.

Not gonna happen.... so many base their comments on poster and not post (including you often).

I mean, before the series many were saying how big and physical Orlando was and how they might dominate the Cavs soft front court.

still long series...and maybe changes come in their place with crowd on their side.

Who was saying that? Isaac isn’t a 5.

Orlando need better guard play like much better and I hope they address it in the offseason

They need a veteran pg.

Suggs did improve. A nice shooter and defender but it seems like all their guards just JAG's. Unfortunately there is nothing in FA this upcoming offseason.

I honestly think Dejounte Murray would fit well in this team. They already have length, athleticism and good defense. Murray adds to the defense and he can facilitate and score. Wagner is more of a #3 anyway

Surprised the Magic haven't put up more of a fight. We'll see if going back to a Orlando helps.

Might have been in the Cavs forums I am in but no doubt in here have been hearing our bigs are soft/weak.

I'd say Isaac is a 4 or 5. sure, a little on the small side but not too much smaller than Allen.

Young guys could definitely be helped by the backing of their own crowd.

Wendell Carter Jr is a center. They don't have a center that can give you 30 big minutes. They just have a couple JAG's.

Orlando needs better PG play and a center that can give them decent starter minutes. Seems like they have two backups big now.

I'm not sure who they target in FA but I think they need to make some trades to upgrade this roster

Chris Paul and Claxton?

Maybe D Lo?

Really are a lot of similarities to last season against NY with us being NY and them being us so far.

Our starters are still really young but have more experience than their starters who are younger with much less experience. So far we have been dominating them on the boards......they have not been able to shoot.....their bench is suspect at best

still could change when those young guys of theirs have a crowd behind them.

Paul might be done but I like Claxton.

I don't know about DLo....

They could always enter the Trae Young sweepstakes.

 

[Shanemansj13]

It looks like they are helping or swarming on Paolo when he drives too

@Shanemansj13 @WiggyRuss @dtgold88 @Heatles84 @bksballer89

You guys see the Mitchell to the Heat chatter has started up again?

Question: Hypothetically speaking, if Donovan said he is 100% bolting in free agency, which for the record, I don’t believe will really happen….

…but IF….

Would either side do a Jimmy for Spida swap?

I can’t imagine anyone else on the Heat roster would move the needle because we know Bam won’t be on the table.

I don't think Miami would trade Jimmy. Obviously I think they would try for Herro, picks and pieces but I highly doubt the Cavs do that. They could get better from another team.

One team that interests me is New Orleans. I love Murphy but I don't think they have much else

This offseason will tell us a lot. I think it definitely depends on what happens in these playoffs

Yeah, nevermind on that rumor anyway.

The same source said the Jazz are also in the mix for Mitchell….lol
