My point is it hasn't been just one game. We have had it in wins and probably every loss. Why overlook it or flush it? Many games have come down to last few minutes; the third quarter was deadly for us earlier in the season. This point showed today in our paper as a concern that needed addressed before the playoffs and I agree. My last post on this; you win your case for the lower bar.

j/c….

Cavs were physically dominated by the Clippers last night. Zubac absolutely bullied them last night. It was getting absurd. Mitchell’s shot has been off the last couple of games.

A chance to rebound tonight. Very winnable games the rest of the road trip.

FWIW, this has been a recurring theme against Allen for years now.


At DT, context and meaning are a scarecrow kicking at moving goalposts.

I'd tank the rest of the west coast road trip and opt for rest. The team looks, and is playing like they're tired. Do just enough to lock up the #1 seed in the East. Boston does not care about home court advantage. Just keep guys healthy for the playoffs.

It’s insane to think Dan Gilbert bought the Cavs for “only” $375M.

Merits consideration. Multiple losses looked real similar. My concern is forming bad "habits" before the playoffs. Proving we can compete (and lose) to stronger top-shelf teams; need a fresh look at our "closer" mix. Maybe rest is the answer, but I would consider changing up some aspects of our play end-of-game to avoid duplicating repeating this outcome. This home stretch offers a chance to tinker safely.

Just dropped 4th in a row. Celtics within 5.5. Not good.
