I agree whole heartedly. Taking a 12 point lead into halftime, going in getting your cookies and milk and taking a nap on your own mat, some may have colored and when they went out to the court, for the start of the second half, they seemed they were worried more someone may have seen they colored outside the linesthan winning the game...
You're up by 12 points and you come out and your first 7 possessions are 5 long shots that turn to bricks and lost possessions and 2 outright turnovers.... and you WANT to win??????? This team destroyed themselves, the Pistons didn't beat the Cavs, the refs didn't beat the Cavs.... THE CAVS BEAT THE CAVS with stupid play and no killer instinct.
The Cavs are a good defensive team and deserve where they are (Eastern Conference Finals), but they are a stupid team that will not be able to reach the next plateau unless they learn how to maintain the lead and develop a killer instinct, not just one where they are trying to hold a lead but one where they want to crush the opponent and not even give a chance for them to come back from a 12 point deficit.
All the Cavs needed was to win 1 in Detroit.... that's it just 1 and take it to Cleveland and rack up a 3-1 lead..... now they are deficit playing and Detroit IS a championship team and WILL go for the kill.
