gibson did the same

and every rolled ankle is created equal?

The refs were petty. But we lost because we were sloppier down the stretch. But I don't expect to win with Heiny on the floor as our go to guy.

thibs screwed up. play gasol.

i dont care i broke an ankle in a game and finished. he should of played. bad job by rose.

Gasol wasn't doing shit.

 

[bksballer89]

Just interested to see if gasol gets the booser treatment and hardly play late in the 4th quarter of games

 

[purguy12]

15pts 9 rebs and 3blocks. didnt know that was shit. lol.

if so thibs should be fired. gasol is a beast on offense and defense.

 

[bksballer89]

I don't think gasol is that great of an on the ball defender

Did he not shoot 5-17 or something like that? His rebounds and blocks were fine but he missed a ton of easy shots

 

[podsox]

gasol had a pretty shitty game. I think that's the main reason he wasn't on the floor late.

yep and he was getting destroyed on the defensive glass all night

Nothing to get too excited about for the Cavs. Bulls without their starting backcourt ( although Kirk was the reason they almost pulled off the win).

Good to see the effort and rebounding by the Cavs though. They need to make this their identity.

Marion only got 15 minutes tonight....don't think he signed up for this

Waiters & andy seem to be the odd men out when it comes to end of game rotation

Yeah, Marion already had a quote after game 1 saying he'd never played that little in a game. (A reporter brought it up not him and he said the right things otherwise, but still.)

It's up to Blatt to get a good deep rotation going and keep players bought into the sacrifice for the team thing. Well see if he's up to the task.

Personally, I can't understand delladova getting preference over waiters.

Cavs didn't even play good still won. They rebound well and forced turnovers. Overall not that good of a game and still got the W.

thats the best cavs will play. they beat a bulls team without rose and butler. cavs are weak.

They shot 39% and 3-15 from 3. They didn't shoot well at all, not their best at all. Kyrie and Love shot pretty bad.

That is far from their best.

Dude it is game 2 of 82. If you think on game 2 of 82 that any team in the league plays their A game, you're a fool

I don't think the Bulls played that great either.

Both teams will be much improved in their 2nd meeting on January 19th.

 

[bksballer89]

One thing I do know from the preseason game and the game tonight is that nobody on the Cavs can guard Rose except for Lebron
