:mjlol: The arrogance of the Warriors thinking they could win a ring with Chris Paul. Rondo made the prophecy 15 years ago. It's been set in stone since then :yeshrug:

1. Harden needs to handle the ball way more when PG comes back. From the games that I have watched of them this season PG is handling the ball more than Harden. Harden and Kawhi should be option 1 and 2 and PG needs to be 3rd.

2. The Clippers are an athletic power forward away from being really scary.

Agreed on both points. PG works better as a 3rd option simply because his shot selection is a bit sporadic, hence his streaky performances. KL and JH are more systematic. So if PG is on a hot streak then feed him but otherwise their offense is more structured with KL/JH prioritized and Zu or Norm as recipients.

That Coffey guy gon take Mann’s spot if Mann continues this PJ Tucker imitation of bricking every corner 3

Nah, Harden's been running the point consistently. PG and Kawhi have let Harden run the offense when all three are on the floor

They run pick and rolls with him and he's good in those but he needs to be able to shoot. The only way it works with him only being effective in the paint is if he plays center and he's too sleight for that.
If you want him to do that, then run those plays for him more consistently :yeshrug:

Posters like to point that Mitchell should be the one asking for a trade when it should be Mobley instead as he's not going to become what he needs to be under JB and this current Cleveland iteration. He's gotten more efficient from the shots that he does take and from the FT line, so he can do it if they give him the shots and not pivot the first time he misses.

It should also be noted that they're 1-3 in the past 4 games since he's been out of the lineup. Don't bring up Chet and JJJ either as they were more tailored on offense coming out of the draft than Mobley

Three straight losses on the road. Twice to Boston and the other to Orlando. Shameful results. :skip:

If people want to up threads and bring up their struggles this season and after this game including yourself, then it’s all fair game based on current expectactions.

The majority of posters aren’t even watching Cleveland games like that anyways to know what’s going on.
