OG and Bridges teaming up nicely on offence here.

Which is good, as Hart seems to have gone cold.

I’d keep Jose on the bench. Tell McBride he needs to shoot and play Landry and clarkson. They can dribble better than McBride and can shoot (Landry) and score ( clarkson). Not afraid of the moment.

Yeah, I'm fully on-board with playing Clarkson/Shamet over McBride/Jose. Not even sure why are bothering with the latter anymore

I don’t mind playing McBride but he has to have the attitude that the team needs to win his minutes. He can go off on a tear but he needs to get going. Mitch too.

Anyone notice t hat Jose mopes when he leaves the court. Jesus ur playing like ****. We don’t need u moping too much

He consumes to much time and honestly other than the GTA stuff is not an effective defender

Honestly, McBride is too small. I remember Kevin O'Connor interviewed Calvin Booth- then GM for DEN- and they touched on the fact that the average height for rotation players on title teams was 6"8' while the league average is 6"7' or so. The longer we play, the more he'll get exposed. It's why I preferred giving him up instead of DDV in the Towns trade; I know DDV is bigger and plays bigger

Back to efficient basketball from passing

Easy looks. Cavs shooting late in the clock. Working hard to get things off. Over time advantage to the good guys

That's until he sees this meme. That's a hearty helping of woman

JB is down with the thickness?

They don't call him "Big Body Brunson" for nothing!

It's all about arm reach, of which mcbride has more than ddv

Correct

Yeah. It's unfortunate but I think he's served his purpose already and has no utility left. I doubt we bring him back next season

I hope not. Kolek is a really good player and needs that spot

I was hoping we gave Kolek some run throughout the playoffs but I'm a little weary about throwing him out there randomly now, considering the stakes. Not playing him sooner is definitely con of the Mike Brown experience.

I agree. I don’t think brown trusts his inexperience. Too slow to guard dm and too small for harden so even though he can move the ball he might be too much of a liability ility on D. And generally speaking we are moving the ball wo him . That said I really like the guy and think he will continue to develop

We'd be playing him against their backup guards but Schroder would toast him too. Even so, I think his time would net-out since our offense would be miles better

Donovan is shooting over him regardless. Elite offensive players will continue doing the same

Cavs are team that lose focus quickly and easily.

They cannot sustain any of their runs.

It does have something to do with out defense, but I do think the Cavs space out quite a bit

I'm not complaining, but they are probably making it easier for us than it should be
