Live Thread: Cavs @ Bulls
2018-11-10
Tonight’s Saturday night match-up is a real doozy. The 1-10 Cavaliers face off against fellow cellar dwellers, the 3-9 Chicago Bulls. Neither one of these teams is good to begin with and both feature some significant injuries. For the Cavs, they are still without All-Star power forward Kevin Love, George Hill, Cedi Osman, and Sam Dekker. They had to sign the former Grizzley Andrew Harrison just to have some more serviceable bodies. For the Bulls, they’ll be without Lauri Markkanen, Kris Dunn, Bobby Portis, and Denzel Valentine.
When you have two teams that are both bad and then subtract some a few of their best players, well, things likely won’t be pretty. I would like to think that the Cavaliers stand a great chance to pick up a win against a team that shouldn’t be putting up too much fight, but who knows. It’s clear this team isn’t the team we hoped it would be over the summer. But hey, against the Bulls, they don’t necessarily need to be that team. I’m going to go with a final score of 121-118 Cavs. It’s about time for another win, eh? As always, Go Cavs!
Two bad defensive plays Korver. Bad decision and shot Sexton.
Wow. That blocking call was thin.
TT!!! Don’t work
Doing*
Nwaba making plays on defense
Tt nice idea, but should’ve just dunked that. Nice pass ahead by Harrison Nwaba draws foul
Nwaba nice finish, but missed a wide open Korver for three
Nice defense Nwaba again. Nice finish Clarkson!!!
Good time out. They’re struggling on offense without Sexton.
Nice idea Harrison but should’ve tried the layup
Cavs playing zone defense with the 2nd unit
Nwaba can’t shoot, but he can play defense. He’s like a smarter version of shump
Block Zizic!!! Harrison bad to
Zizic pick pocketed. No communication.
So sexton’s best game so far eh? Only able to tune in now.
Sexton Nash drive and pass to Clarkson for three!!!!!!
@70-70.. just chk’d score.. not bad.. see you boys in a while.. looks like sexton is having an un-bust moment.. nice
who won the butler trade?
Did Minny get a first? If not, no one. Technically Philly, but I am not sure it addresses their true needs. Then again, suppose if you can get Butler without a first you may want to pull the trigger.
Sexton nice move!!! Draws the foul
Hood great pass!!! Tt I clean up duty on the Nance miss!!!
Nice pass hood!!!! N nice finish tt!
Sexton great pass… Nance gotta finish.
Sexton is finally looking like he did in summer league…. In control of the flow
Sexton on fire!!!!
Sexton Euro step and dish!!!!! Hood draws foul!!!
Sexton on ball defense!
Sexton 3!!!!!!!!!! His stroke looks good!
Sexton pull up!
I WOULD TRY ANTE WITH EITHER T.T / OR LNJ STARTING——-JUST NOT SURE THAT COMBO OF T.T. / LNJ WORKS WELL —-?????————LET THE KIDS PLAY / LET THEM GROW———UNDERSTAND HE HASN’T PRACTICED WITH CAVS AT ALL——ANY EARLY OBSERVATIONS ON HARRISON ?
Sexton is the leading scorer and playing pretty well…. Needs to be even more aggressive shooting 3s and driving.
And maybe NO MORE long twos
What an odd 2nd quarter. Bulls made a huge mistaje trying to get jabari Parker going…he is useless against nance
Jordan Clarkson and Korver saved the Cavs in the 2nd quarter.
Great pass hood!!!
C’mon Sexton.. . Terrible shot selection…. Terrible decision.
Sexton finish in the paint!!! They take the lead!!! Sexton tap pass to TT!!!
Tt nails his hook floater
Sexton blow by!!!
“CPT BANDAID ” GOING FOR TRIPLE / DOUBLE ——LAST 2 GAMES –LOOKS LIKE A DIFFERENT PLAYER——–NATE HOPE YOU HAVE CONSUMED ALOT OF BEER ——-I HAVE BEEN TUNING INTO THE CHARGE GAME—–BETWEEN THE FOULS / T.O’S —–ONE UGLY GAME ———NAISMITH ROLLING IN HIS GRAVE RIGHT NOW
Korver another 3!!!
Nwaba block! Korver 3!!!
Nwaba wide open 3 doesn’t even hit iron. He can’t shoot.
Yikes Korver just got smoked by their rookie… Thankfully he blew the easy layup.
Korver to Clarkson!!!
Clarkson to Korver!!!
Awful turnover tt
I SEE TYPICAL ‘ LONG-IN BARF ” DEF –37 PTS QTR —-GEEZ—–GUESS I WON’T HAVE TO STAY UP AND WATCH THE REPLAY
Clarkson 3 off the dribble!
Nice layup Clarkson.
Nwaba awful miss open 3.
Harrison skiing what he always does, brick shots
Nance and TT is a dumb idea. Terrible decision drew. Also no Korver at all is another dumb decision.
These Bulls jerseys remind me of mid 90s Cavs
Nice defense Nwaba
Hideous first quarter
Archidiacano went underrated and all he does is nails 3s
Undrafted
Flash cut Zizic and nails it!
Nice drive hood!
EXACTLY WHAT SEXTON –( ALL THE YOUNG GUYS NEED )—PLAYING TIME –TO LEARN FROM THEIR MISTAKES ——-HEY NATE SEE PRESTON IS PLAYING HALF WAY DECENT
Sexton drive and finish!
Nice dish Clarkson hood 3!
This charge game is kind of hilarious. Six techs already. And one ejection in the early third.
Great pass Sexton…. Gets hood a shot
JR doing stupid stuff, turns it over
Sexton 3!!! Didn’t pass up the open 3!
Nice drive sexton and dump off
JR falling asleep on defense.
I WOULD HOPE / THINK “ANTE–ZZ ” GETS SOME SERIOUS MIN’S / PLAY TIME TONIGHT
Sexton bad pass and he also passed up two catch and shoot 3s. Have to take those.
Nice pull up Sexton
Nice pass jr
WATCHING SOME OF THE CHARGE —PRESTON HAVING A SOLID NIGHT ——BONZI NOT BAD —7 PTS / 12 MIN’S —5 REB’S —–JACOREY -14 PTS—-HE ALWAYS LOOKS AS IF HE COULD BE AN END OF THE BENCH / SMALL MIN’S TYPE OF NBA PLAYER
CAVS VS BULLS —OR …..WHO REALLY IS GOING AFTER “ZION “
