Of course the ATL
When did the Cavs become so much better than us??

I can't see the game but breh they've been a better team than us. We don't matchup well with them at the perimeter and Killa is just Kyle now. Y'all gotta remember he was doing damn near 50/50/90 splits (fg%,3 pt %, FT%) he's nowhere near that now. Our frontline, while improved, isn't as physical as what CLE wants to do. Even tho this is a Nov game tough L vs. the team a lot of #Set brehs feel like were better than :yeshrug:

Do y'all feel like y'all miss Carroll a little bit more than most thought?

I wouldn't have paid him $15 million a year either.

Splitter looks like he just clogs up the paint out there.

We definitely miss his defense, miss his scrappiness...he was a glue guy who got a great pay day so can't be mad at him but yea we def miss him. Splitter is still looking for his place on the team, he doesn't look instinctive out there yet so he does look like he's clogging it up. Truth be told we need legit scoring at the wings which we absolutely DONT have. Korver's regressed, Baze isn't a SF, THJR hasn't taken the floor yet this season, Holiday is ehh. Thabo's played well but he's not a scorer. This team isn't going anywhere with our SG/SF being this mediocre

We are the softest team in the league. @AVXL I agree with you, Horford needs to get his ass back in the paint.

I wouldn't say softest, but we're still heavy on finesse and our bigs aren't physical. That's what concerns me against a team like CLE in the playoffs, we can't match their physicality and if we tried to make it a finess game I'm not sure we can beat them at that game. But Al and all these threes need to get the fukk outta here...that part of the reason I didn't see the three as enhancing his overall game, he's still the same player, very good, but not elite
