We’ve officially reached the unhealthy point of this series. Up that Lipitor prescription and get that heart defibrillator ready because you’ll need it for these last 3 (hopefully 2) games. Man, that fourth quarter was fun.

Let’s look at the game tape

Derrick Rose has really put those “he sucks on 1 day of rest” theories to bed… That or a 1 footed Kyrie Irving can’t guard him very well

Joakim Noah had maybe one of the ugliest shots ever seen on a basketball court but luckily Taj Gibson was there to clean it up

All of Cleveland collectively stopped breathing right at this very second

Ice it, wrap it up, and we’ll see you on Tuesday.

The “Oh shit, I’ve gotta keep up my hard ass image. I can’t be seen on camera smiling.” He did have a cool “concert” though.

I’m starting to feel for Tristan Thompson. Perfect defense on Jimmy Butler here & also Derrick Rose on Friday… and they still make the shots. Tough, man.

Biggest flop I’ve ever seen. Guess that’s what they teach at Duke. (jk, Dunleavy might have a broken face)

Hey David, don’t call timeouts you don’t have. Oopsies.

Bang. Ballgame. 2-2. See you in Cleveland.

Couple quick thoughts:

-Have you ever seen a bigger scapegoat than David Blatt? I mean, good lord people. The Cavs won. Did you see that the Cavs won? The Cavs won. Sure the whole “calling timeouts with none left” thing would have been catastrophic… but it wasn’t. And you mean to tell me the biggest Alpha dog in the NBA told his coach he was going to be the one to take the last shot?? What a shocking revelation!! I know we’re just looking for someone to blame when shit hits the fan but stop it. The Cavs won.

– I don’t ever remember a stretch where LeBron has shot the ball so poorly. 10 for 30 this game and 8 of 25 last game. 18 of 55 the past 2 games and shooting 2 of 19 from three point land. Hopefully being back at home on Tuesday will allow him to find his groove again because right now this is UGLY.

-Hey Cleveland Clinic, gonna need you to work overtime and heal Kyrie’s strained foot in a day.

– Even though he ended up with 3 blocks, it seemed like Timofey Mozgov altered just about every shot attempt in the lane

– I get so much joy every time Joakim Noah tries to dribble a basketball.

-I think it’s fair to start wondering if Kyrie is hurting or helping the Cavs by being on the court with his foot injury.

– I’ve never seen so many idiots on Twitter bitch about a buzzer beating shot that won a game. You’d have thought the Cavs lost by 10.

-Kevin Love’s shoulder, Kyrie’s foot, Shumpert’s groin, LeBron’s ankle. Good heavens.

– Also, every time Stephen A. Smith opens his mouth on ESPN I want to puke all over everything.

See you on Tuesday for game 5. Cavs in 6.

Cleveland’s collective reaction watching last night’s game

Not many words can sum up last night’s game better than a good Kramer gif. That game was an ugly all around affair. Both teams couldn’t shoot, both teams played physical, and both teams didn’t get many calls from the refs. But in the end it was a 25 foot bank shot by a guy who’s never made a big shot in his life that did the Cavs in. Can’t even be mad at that. You just have to laugh, tip your cap, and move on.

Let’s look at the game tape

Need LeBron in attack mode all game every game from here on out. The stare down was a nice touch as well.

Alley oops to Russians from halfcourt are my new favorite thing ever

LeBron dunked on Joakim Noah’s soul then Noah proceeded to talk shit to him. Very confusing to say the least. In other news is there a bigger fraud in the NBA than Joakim Noah?

Cardale liked it

Thought this make by JR was the shot that would send the game into overtime

Until this bullshit happened

If it wasn’t against the Cavs I’d like this video of the shot set to Kanye West so much more.

Let’s also not forget that the final inbounds play was verrrrrry close (it was) to being over 5 seconds.

Couple quick thoughts

– What a way to lose a ballgame. It’s OK though. The Cavs 2 best players underperformed and it still took a 25 foot bank shot buzzer beater to beat us. This series is farrrr from over but last night was definitely a swift kick right to the nuts.

– Whoever Mark Schwartz is… well, he’s an idiot and Kyrie’s reaction says it all.

– Someone please tell Timofey Mozgov to start playing like he’s the biggest guy on the court. I know the refs weren’t calling anything but he’s gotta be stronger than that.

– Jimmy Butler’s last basket was a travel and if you don’t think so you’re blind.

– Man. I hate typing this but Kyrie was a liability in the fourth quarter. You could tell his foot was bothering him and he just wasn’t himself. If it’s crunch time and the Cavs need a big defensive stop I’m not sure I trust Kyrie on the court with his injured foot. (Feel freely to copy and paste this and rub my face in it if I end up being completely wrong)

– The Bulls had 15 more rebounds and 13 more second-chance points than the Cavs. That’s pretty stunning considering how things went in game 2. Serenity now!

– It sucks that Coach Thibs finally realized Nikola Mirotic should be playing a lot more than he has been.

– We split at home and splitting on the road is considered a victory. We CANNOT go down 3-1. Not even the least bit concerned however.

See you guys on Sunday. Cavs in 6.
