    How's our silver lining doing in light of this impending loss?

    He came down with Stotts Syndrome

    If you need Nurk, Hassan and Zach to beat a Cavs team without Kevin Love, then there are major issues.

    Olshey may extend his extension.

    Portland could move up to as high as #4 in the Lottery race with a loss tonight.

    I'd say they are collectively more important to our roster than KLove is to the Cavs so it's not a major issue....it's an injury bug

    Loss here could get Terry fired. This kinda game isn't a good look even for a stable front office.

    I can't handle the lack of ball movement. There really is zero excuse for it. I would love to think it will be addressed at halftime but let's be real. In any other situation the coach would held responsible for this injuries or no injuries. And I'm not even a Stotts hater if that saya something. It's just bad coaching.

    Every year we rarely have the lead at halftime....Dame and CJ are usually 2nd half offense...first half Dame likes to get other guys involved..

    Do you think NO or Jodie have even considered that for a second or talked about it? Cause I think Stotts is pretty safe at least for the year even if they are just awful. I dont think it has even crossed Neil's mind.

    78% of our shot attempts have come from 15 feet out or longer.

    True, but we also are completely depleted on big guys. It doesn’t really matter if we have 7 wings/guards that can score a lot if we can’t get a rebound to save our life bc we have Tolliver, Skal, and Carmello as our BIGS...

    I bet it has crossed his mind a lot this season but then he realizes that firing Stotts would be an indictment on himself too so he moves on.

    Really? These are the CAVS! Look at that roster. You have 2 top 20 players and you lose to this team?
