It is hard to get too upset at anyone over last night's game. It was a valiant effort...a moral victory if you will given what we threw out there. Our starters actually won their floor time fairly significantly. Wood won his floor time against Allen (and Cleveland is +8 per 100 anytime Allen is on the floor).
The bench, basically our 12-15 guys, just didn't have enough real NBA talent. The offense just died when Theo, Hardy and McGee were in together. Kidd did the Dorian first out and first back thing again (even w/o point-PF Luka), leaving Wood as the only player of any size. We survived those minutes just fine. It felt like if we could have had just one of our regular bench guys back, we would have probably won.
