Yeah, that's how it usually is in our favor (although you guys are really good too). We just have no guys left.

Re: Cavs vs Rockets - TNT 8PM EST - Feb 7th
Wow without Gooden or AV we can't even get a rebound. It's pretty ridiculous

Re: Cavs vs Rockets - TNT 8PM EST - Feb 7th
We aren't going to win a lot of games w/o AV and Gooden both gone against teams with an actual frontcourt. Newble/Marshall couldn't start at PF in the NBDL probably. We have no rebounding with these guys. Marshall was just awful out there. On offense he missed wide open 3's, he didn't box out, and couldn't get any loose ball as well

Re: Cavs vs Rockets - TNT 8PM EST - Feb 7th
Man now I know how other teams feel when they play us and we kill them on the boards. Without our PF's we are nothing on the frontline.
Maybe we shouldn't deal Gooden afterall

Re: Cavs vs Rockets - TNT 8PM EST - Feb 7th
You know, we still could have won this game if the guys that did play even gave a half-assed effort. It's not like the Rockets were playing great. It was winnable, but they just didn't want it enough. Their body language on the court told me all I needed to know.

Re: Cavs vs Rockets - TNT 8PM EST - Feb 7th
And I won't excuse the lack of effort, but damn did it look like we were fielding a high school team out there tonight.
I feel like without Lebron, we would have cracked 40 points. Maybe.

Because we're constantly complaining about everything in sight, especially me. lol
I can't get enough of complaining about Hughes, injuries, refs, Mike Brown, and anything else I can think of.

Re: Cavs vs Rockets - TNT 8PM EST - Feb 7th
Yeah I was surprised we were even close in the 4th quarter but we just got no rebounding out of this group. I hate to harp on this Marshall just killed us tonight: freakin snail out there. Add in that Newble was getting outphysicaled by Wells and Scola and we had no shot.

Re: Cavs vs Rockets - TNT 8PM EST - Feb 7th
Maybe the answer is to play Lebron at the 4 with Gooden out. Lebron's a better rebounder than Ira. I think Lebron has to look to be super aggressive on the defensive backboards with our frontline gone. He was stuck waiting for our bigs to get a lot of rebounds and it just wasn't happening.
Though I think Z was really bothered by Yao's length, and it contributed to his overall poor play tonight. He was just off on the rebounding.

Re: Cavs vs Rockets - TNT 8PM EST - Feb 7th
Didn't we almost get Scola and Bibby this summer? Scola would have been a perfect player to play with Lebron. He's kind of a 6-9 Ginobilli.

Re: Cavs vs Rockets - TNT 8PM EST - Feb 7th
The Cavs made Rockets look like a great offensive rebounding team. I was actually surprised that the Rockets got more than one offensive rebound. They normally don't get that much.
I fell so bad that you guys have Larry Hughes. He is terrible.
