Live Thread: Cavs @ Wizards
2019-11-08No news on the game tonight. We debated whether we should post a live thread at all in light of our earlier post today which lamented the passing of our friend and fellow writer, Cory Hughey. Ultimately, we decided that Cory would have wanted us to enjoy the game and each others’ company. He believed believed in sports’ ability to unite us and loved to share the experience with other people.
Cory Loved Collin Sexton and was the earliest person in the CtB and Cavs Twitter community to openly pull for Collin to end up on the Cavs. He also loved every member of the 2016 team. For that reason, I hope Delly, TT, Kev, and Collin have a monster nights and embarrass former Cav Isaiah Thomas.
Don’t be sad tonight, folks. Crack a smile and a beer. Enjoy the game with someone you love and cheer on the team. Go Cavs.
and oh yeah, DG!
Sexton has done a decent job defending Beale. Most of his buckets have been earned.
Garland can light up IT…just do it…
Not great there, TT…
Future Wish: Add a big alpha 2-way shooting guard who forces Collin to the bench (as a 6th man of the year Louis Will-clone) and trade TT for another pick and maybe project big. The guards will need a PNR big who plays D. KLove is his best pal. Cedi as always, is a Jedi. Just give him time and he will save the galaxy….
Real nice drive and pass from Garland there…
MIKEO …..STILL LAUGHING !!!!1 : ) : ) : ) : ) ………..KEEP EM COMING / WE ALL ENJOY !!
Wizards are barely an NBA team starting with their coaching. I always thought Scotty Brooks was the worst coach in the league. Probably cost OKC a ring.
We may score 130 on them and that would be 30 points off their season “high”.
Great defense leads to easy offense!!!
Wow, nice Cavs flurry there…
I guess the young guys like playing in the spotlight.

Mike “ lottery “ Longabardi
Longabardi’s patented “blitzkrieg” defense.
“HANGIN THE GARLAND “……………..NICE 1ST HALF….10 / 5 …….MAKING THE NOMAD LOOK PRETTY SMART–( WHICH IS A VERY DIFFICULT TASK TO ACCOMPLISH )….GO CAVS —-HERE’S TO YOU CORY AND ALL MY OTHER CTB BROTHERS —LET’S HAVE ANOTHER HALF JUST LIKE THE 1ST—” MORE BEER PLEASE “

Brilliant. Belly laughing on the west coast.
MikeO, you should be writing for Apple TV. They need some funny real bad.
Holy crap! The Cavs are on national tv! This is my one chance to watch them! And they’re winning big! If they lose now, it’s not my fault.
Looking for original investors in KPJr island.
Garland has great vision and is very good at keeping his dribble alive and “nashing” the defense. That hesitation on the last play of the half was filthy as was the lob. If his shot becomes as advertised he could be a great offensive player. On the contrary, Sexton seems like he has not passed once in this game . There was a play when TT got an offensive board and didn’t pass to a wide open Sexton. I thought to my self why is he not passing him the ball, and seconds later when he had to pass because… Read more »
I saw this play. Nuts.
seems like Garland read all the same things I read about him this summer and worked on his floor game. trying too hard to pass for now, but i love his reaction to reading about weaknesses. I love him so far!
I saw that play…. totally agree… TT gave him “payback” for missing him on the initial PnR where Sexton shot it. If the team was really “connected” TT would’ve kicked out for the wide open Sexton 3.
How does Longo have a job in the NBA?
Must be one charming dude…
Maybe the Wiz wanted somebody to match up with Isaiah Thomas in practices.
They already have ish Smith!
Garland with a fantastic finish to the half on the offensive end!
Tristland connection!
Love that Garland lob to TT…
DG has a nice scoop
TT has developed that little hook shot into sure money.
Probably literally
Strong move, TT…
Cavs with 61 already, three minutes left…
Longo is unfeated
What the hell was Bradley Beal thinking extending that contract with the Wiz? I would be so out of there if I was him.
Wiz have some athletes in their front court. Man they have terrible wings though.
DG3!
Lol. Jr. Feeling himself a bit too much there.
Hope EG is at least recording this, his favorite player ever getting action…
Cavs are blowing out a team, guyz…at least sort of a team…
Banana in the tailpipe…lol…that was cheap…
Classic
WOW KPJ just getting buckets!
Kpj has a really nice first step
KPJ’s best game so far…
Really like that pass from kpj.
Cavs just running layup lines. Good stuff.
Omg. Longo is on the wizards bench!
He’s a defensive Wizard…
Now Scotty Brooks’s is only the second worse coach in DC
Lol!
The apple TV shows all look really dull
The morning show is unwatchable
Long time coming!
Wow, KPJ bailed out with that block…
Although it appears to be a good call…
Yeah, i thought it was a bailout too, then the replay showed it definitely was a good call.
He’s really slithery around the rim
I like his dribble…he’ll be tough in the paint in the future…
The Wiz are so bad that their announcers admire the depth of the Cavs bench by mentioning Brandon Knight. That’s when you know your team is in deep trouble.
Lol.
LNJ standing outside the 3 point line. Not sure what Coach B thinking with that. Next play LNJ in the paint and he gets to the line.
Cavs at Sixers will get ugggggggggggly…
Very happy I don’t own the John Wall contract…
Delly finally hit a 3!
Damn! I Missed that Delly tray.
Hah, Deli Tray!
Cavs not defending the rim well.
Interesting quarter. Cavs would be up a lot if their transition d was worth a damn
Wow smtih handchecked his way into an offensive foul call on Delly.
DON’T WANT TO SPEAK TOO SOON/ JINX HIM—BUT MY DARIOUS “HANGIN THE GARLAND ” FOR 15-20 PTS LOOKING GOOD RIGHT NOW —–YOU GO YOUNG MAN
KPJ has a little herky jerky in his dribble…
Delly hook!
What atrocious transition D by the Cavs even after made baskets. Longamdardi must be proud somewhere.
He taught them life lessons…
Longabardi is the Wizards defensive coach!
It’s the job he was born for, baby!!
Really??! I should have bet the over. I knew he somehow found a new job but I couldn’t remember where. The Wizards make so much sense.
Was preparing a delicious pot roast with all the fixins, so have only been half watching until now…good start…
DG with a couple nice plays.
Cavs getting all the bounces
Won’t be able to watch tonight. But thoughts out to Cory’s family. Hopefully we get a win.
Damn. Cedi filling it up.
DG with a nice pass to Thompson.
great start for the Cavs, taking advantage of Wizards total lack of focus.
Just saw the news about Cory… so sorry to hear.
Glad I backed you up NOMAD! Looks like this could be Garland’s game!
Yezus. Cavs just giving away lottery balls here.
AS LONG AS WE CAN MAKE A POST ENTRY PASS —RUN PNR
Darius with a nice stutter while cedi destroys early.
TT should destroy this team.
