Live Thread: Cavs vs Heat
2020-02-24Well, the chance for revenge starts tonight. We’ll see if Saturday was an aberration or if the Bickerstaff era is as undisciplined as it seems so far. The Cavs are without McKinnie, but Kevin Love will suit up, while the Heat are without Herro, Meyers Leonard, and Jimmy Butler. Should be interesting.
awful turnover Sexton… trying to take Jones Jr. one on one?
good god… just resorting to Drummond 3s???
nice play Sexton, Love just misses
Drummond blows the layup, somehow got blocked by the smaller Adebayo.
SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT THE INFERNO—HOPE NOT SERIOUS—THE LAST 2 GAMES HAS SHOWN SOME OFFFENSIVE PROMISE —–CAVS TEAM REMINDS ME OF A LOCAL COACH SARCASTICALLY// JOKINGLY DESCRIBING HIS TEAM TO THE LOCAL MEDIA BEFORE THE SEASON——–” WE MIGHT BE SHORT…BUT WE ARE SLOW “——TOOK ALOT OF HEAT FOR HIS COMMENTS

Sexton might actually be not terrible in a sixth man role off the bench.
I think he’s be okay at that, really, depends who else is on the court. It would hurt the scoring in their starting lineup, though.
Maybe. Taking out a shoot first guy might enable Love and Drummond more.
21 HEAT ASSISTS / CAVS 9 ASSISTS ———PRETTY MUCH SUMS IT UP ……………..” FREE ANTE ‘
and getting outrebounded too.
We’re just so small, slow, undisciplined, and generally not physical on the perimeter on d.
If you don’t like that, you don’t like Cavs Basketball…
Ha! You can counter a couple of those attributes, but not all four at once.
The Cavs incessant over helping on the primary action, no secondary rotation leading to wide open jumpers again and again. Even when the Cavs play hard on D, they play dumb.
Great hustle Larry! To get a possession late in the first.
Daugherty and AC lobbying hard for KPJ to start in place of Sexton…. haven’t heard this from them all season, granted only hear them occasionally.
Robinson might be the next korver based on his quick release and ability to sprint into shots around screens.
Sexton looks lost this game against decent paint d. Garland seemingly hesitant to make obvious post entry passes at times. KPJ been occasionally ok.
Body language just poor overall even though there was some effort in second.
So many open threes.

Yay
Porter can get his shot off any time on the drive.
o man KPJ a bit unlucky on that sequence of events…
Garland nice pass to Drummond, nice finish!
great defense Love, where’s the rebounding Drummond?
Kpj goes for the dumbest steals sometimes.
Same reason he does those cringeworthy step backs. A little loose on discipline sometimes.
Insane that the Cavs are in this with as bad as they’ve played at times.
CEDI TAKING ADVANTAGE!!! GREAT READ LOVE! 10 point game!
nice steal Garland, but wasted the possession.
CEDI FINISH!!! WOW!
Cavs looking a bit less sluggish…
Garland with a 3 finally!
Good read Love! Drummond mismatch!
GREAT play Garland pulling it back out and passing! GREAT TWO MAN KPJ AND DRUMMOND!
Good offense, hunted the mismatch.
awful play Sexton… what are you doing.. you can’t even challenge that shot anyway.
Eh. He’s trying.
you’re right LMFAOOOOO
Problem is 6’6”+ guys aren’t bothered by perimeter contests by 6’1” guys unless they foul.
Crowder is such a tool bag. He extended the legs on purpose.
He’s always been a douche. I hated when the Cavs got him.
Any update on Exum?
out for the night.
Love/Drummond playing better than their first stint.
Drummond and Love finally showing some professional pride the past few possessions.
LOL finally played some defense on Adebayo… first time in 6 quarters!!!
Ugh. Miami just shooting the lights out. Gotta put someone on the deck.
dumb shot Sexton,
Someone needs to knock Robinson on his ass
WTF… Duncan Robinson
KPJ can get a foul call every time he drives the way he uses his body
nice defensive possession there.
Good take KPJ… got the foul
freak accident takes out Exum’s ankle.. sheesh
Hope that’s just a sprain…looks like it hurts…
Sexton ran some crappy offense right there.
ugliest offense possible, at least TT scored lol
KPJ WITH THE STRONG FINISH! he’s back in rhythm after two awful games.
nice pass Sexton, TT used a shot fake, got the foul!
nice defensive play KPJ!
Thank God for Nance/Thompson.
Impossible to overstate how awful Drummond and love were.
Freaking awful.
yup
Great hustle Exum. Cavs down 29-21 after an abysmal start.
KPJ OFF THE DRIBBLE!!! GREAT READ!
great defense Exum!
WOW… can’t believe TT shooting 3s is a thing.
That was butter.
it was LMFAOOOOOo
50% for the season…
Nice read KPJ, TT use a shot fake!
TT doing work!
Smart play KPJ! Love the shot selection!
Sounds depressing already!
Garland with a Sexton possession… move the ball.
Drummond, try working on your layups.
Drummond sucks but love sucks more.
+1…Korby was a moron if he could have unloaded him to Portland and didn’t. Or Korby/ Gilbert, since it’s impossible to know who is making decisions. Bulls have Garpax, Cavs have Korbert. Love *can* play, he’s not going to do it for this team, though.
WTF …. Drummond doing dumb things
nice take Garland, early sub for Sexton… KPJ first in
Love and Drummond just got clowned on defense.
No help from the bigs on defense,
good two man Garland and Love.
HEY GUYS HOW ABOUT —” GIVE A S H – T ” ………………………….” WE WANT ANTE “
nice patient play Garland… Love 3… needed that.
WOW 2nd straight turnover by Love….
At least Garland and Cedi know how to play… they’ve been the only two starters playing well.
Jesus. Drummond and love… So washed.
LMFAOOO KLove with a dumb pass and Drummond just got beat up by Adebayo.
couldn’t be a worst start, Cedi late (and help defender?) on a challenge where they ran the exact same play as last game, and a terrible pass by Drummond that Garland wasn’t even expecting.
I’ll be shocked if the Cavs keep this under 20.
CAN YOU SAY ” DEJA VU ” —-UNFORTUNATELY DON’T EXPECT MUCH DIFFERENT TONIGHT —HOPE I AM WRONG ———-WOW WHAT A MOVING TRIBUTE TO KOBE / GIGI –R..I.P . BOTH OF YOU
