Dan Gilbert Expresses His Feelings Via Twitter As Well

by John Bena (aka CavsBlogger) on Dec 3, 2010 9:03 AM CST in Cleveland Cavaliers 2010-11 Game Recaps

The time for changes has come. I'm OK with the Cavaliers getting blown out, as much as any die-hard fan can be. How it happened - with all the buddy-buddy stuff with LeBron is what twists my briefs. If his tweets are any indication, Cavs owner Dan Gilbert feels the same:

He wasn't finished:

The is little doubt that Dan Gilbert is prepared to do whatever it takes. I also know that there needs to be some patience. Last night, however, proved that some major changes are needed, if the Cavaliers can make them.

continued,

I for one, am a die hard cavs fan, that will not tuck tail and run (like Moe) because we lost our best player. However, i will not continue to spend hard earned money on merch and tix if this uninspired B.S. continues ( last night was just the most glaring of the hapless performances this this year)

Please show us some passion and commitment and start making changes ASAP

goodbye Andy, Moe,Antawn,Jamario, Ap, and jawad

Im the poor man's corey maggette!!!

Its one freakin game!!! Don’t start looking for bridges to jump off quite yet. We will need to churn some players to get the roster younger but that won’t happen until at least next month. Until then…

I have watched every televised game this year and my thoughts are far from attributed to one game. This is a slippery slope, this team is not going to make the playoffs and were in the midst of what is about to be an epic slide into suckiness. We should at least start making strides to the future

the losses are uninspired and it doesnt seem the team is figuring out the sysyem. 20 games is a plenty big enough sample size, Moe hits some lucky shots every now and then, but I dont believe he works in the offense. As for the others they are remnants from a time that has passed

move them out and lets get some new players in. Our average starter age is freakin 28!, so there is no blaming what we are seeing on youth

Im the poor man's corey maggette!!!

things don't happen overnight

You can’t rush perfection and when you do, it doesn’t turn out to be what you want it to be. How many years did it take before we became good again? They still need to find that one piece that will get the team going and you either find it through the draft, free agency or trade market. There is nothing really available that would fit through free agency and I would rather wait till the draft and go after someone like Barnes if we get a low enough pick. We all knew they weren’t going to be that good this year but I still think there good enough because the east is pretty weak.

I Agree with Chucky!

I am also a Cavs fan, no matter what. But the players in Cavs uniforms disrespected MY team, joking and talking with #6 while down by 20+ points! We were in pain, and they not only weren’t fighting, but were making our greatest foe feel down right welcome! While I was not please at all with the number, or lack of numbers, that Mo put up, at least he wasn’t having frickin’ fun! Mo has never performed well in a playoff type atmosphere, which is exactly what yesterday was, it should not have been too surprising. He had 4 turnovers, but I thought two were on the players not cutting hard enough to the basket…not being aggressive enough.
The fact that our bench scored over 60 of the 90 points is a brick in the face to the management that something has to happen with our starting line-up. There are very few players I would think are untouchable, if any. I know this is a young team, but coach Scott seems to be trying to protect them and prevent them from imploding. I understand it, but it still bothers me a little at this point. They did not go full throttle last night, and it’s insulting to us to say they did.

Say what?!

I really wanted to watch this game, but didn’t get a chance to do so. Maybe for the best given what you reported — this part right here is utterly unacceptable!

I know a lot of non-Lakers fans dislike Kobe, but this below epitomizes the attitude necessary to win a championship:

Best wishes to the Cavs and Byron. Do what it takes to move to the next level.
