Live Thread : Cavs vs Spurs
2020-03-08Welcome to Cleveland, Pop. The Cavs are looking to help knock you out of the playoffs, and an injured Lonnie Walker, Demarcus Aldridge, Jacob Poeltle, and Marco Bellinelli won’t make it easier for your Spurs. Meanwhile, the Cavs will be missing Tristan, KPJ, Garland, Exum, and Dean Wade. It should be interesting. I’m expecting a Spurs win but the way things have been going lately, who knows? Go Cavs.
BUCKAROO LMAO : – ) / : – ) / : – ) —–WILL WORK ON THAT PACIFIER —MAKE YOU MY MARKETING MGR
Boy drummond out of control, bailed out by foul.
Terrible quarter. Lot of dumb plays (Sexton, Drummond) and a lot of lazy play (Love), and a lot of terrible officiating.
Plus they are running out of gas. JB shout give Ante or one our 10 day/2 way guards play a couple minutes.
Put an eye patch on TT and put him back in.
Spurs up by 4 but feel fully in control due to their d.
Sexton pretty terrible since I tuned in.
Forcing way too much. 5 tovs all due to poor decisions.
Spurs also playing him well. He’s not adapting.
For sure
Suddenly leaking points in the paint
Trouble dboarding.
Cavs relying totally on treys. Spurs finding chinks in d. Officiating not great
Spurs mostly cut off The paint. Another sexton tov. Bad game tonight
Sexton uses a euro step. A first?
Boy delly got hammered on that drive.
This officiating is butt.
NOMAD.. i do think there is a business opportunity in beer bottle pacifiers with team affiliation logos.. better get on it.. the first from NOMAD Products, Inc
Good inside out passing by love to cedi
Nance trailer 3. Nice recognition by delly.
Bench guys mocking Sexton on his failed dunk. He’s taking it well :)
This officiating is ugh.
That offensive foul was terrible.
At least sexton hitting some js, but just has total blinders tonight.
That’s just embarrassing, Sexton
Bwhahahhahahahahahaha! Sexton just got reverse posterized.
Spurs locking down the cavs in half court. Crawled all the way back in the most spursian way.
” FREEE ANTE ” AND THE G LEAGUE GANG : – )
Nice delly to dre out of bounds oop. Sexton forcing way too much in transition. Very poor decisions tonight.
Was Sexton just blocked by two players??
Pretty much.
JOHNB LIKE YOUR CAVS ” GREATEST HITS ” YEP THAT WOULD ASSURE US A LOTTERY PICK !!!
WEL HEY THERE MR BUCKAROO—GLAD YOU COULD JOIN THE P;ARTY —UNLIKE THE NOMAD WHO SKIPPED OUT ON YOU GUYS LAST NIGHT
drum feasting.. nice
TT gone for the night…
Oof. Didn’t realize it was that bad. Scratched cornea maybe.
I SEE A “TANKLESS ” SEASON FAST APPROACHING —HURRY REHIRE BELEIN
Mike Brown 3.0? Truly that would be worth it just for the hilarious meta-narrative. Like on again off again lovers. Just can’t get each other out of there heads.
Fighter Pilot 2.0
With Lue as associate head coach again.
And longobarfi
Lets bring em all back. Cavs greatest hits. Everyone is an associate head coach. Equal power. In game decisions and adjustments are made by vote.
Could make a reality TV show out of it. Alliances will be formed and broken. Which associate coach will rise to power.
Cannot believe Sexton scored on that last play. Was so predictable. But hey he beat his man off the screen.
Gotta give it to him, the kid is so damn fast.
Greased lightning
SEXTON STILL TRYING TO “FORCE THE ISSUE ” INSTEAD OF LETTING THE GAME ” COME TO HIM “
Probably the worst Spurs team we’ve seen in 25 years.
Easily. I don’t count the Robinson injury year.
IF WE WERE EVEN CLOSE TO 30 % ON OUR 3’S THIS GAME MIGHT BE CLOSE TO BEING OVER
LOL Drummond coast to coast
That was an absurd decision by dre. Should have gotten a charge but I’ll take it.
Granted they’re former all-stars, but Cavs are starting two, we could be competitive if everyone decided to play hard and play right.
Sexton forcing way too much. Not a good game for him.
Once he understands how to use change of pace… look out.
He just needs to see the floor. Not even just for passing but to realize when to drive when to pull it out.
DRE (E ) FOR 3 SHOULD BE A.C.’S NEW CALL
Spurs still so methodical. Sexton dribbled the air out the ball. Can’t figure out packed lanes.
Pop has figured out that if they stop Sexton they stop the Cavs.
DOES LOOK RATHER OBVIOUS —BUT HEY HIS ( BELEIN’S ADVANCED SCOUTING ) HAS US AT 5-5 LAST 10 GAMES : – )
Lol!!
So…cavs players definitely hated Beilien.
Seems so. Eventually some of this will wear off though. New coaches always bring a period of higher energy.
so… new coach every two weeks. new trend!
Ha yeah. Maybe a rotation of assistants.
Wowser nice cross and dunk in face up situation by dre.
Dre shake and bake
SIMMO HAVE WATCHED MAC’S STATS THIS YEAR / CAUGHT A FEW GAMES —STAT SHEET STUFFER —WOULD LIKE TO SEE HIM GET SOME RUN TONIGHT
Thanks Nomad
Good energy but bit too aggressive in end of shot clock situation with spurs in bonus.
Dre delivering the weak stuff out of here.
Errrrrased by Drummond!!
He has been good tonight save for the 3 pt tries. But then again TT tried one too.
Oh dear. Movement has stopped…
Yeah.
Settling. Spurs don’t quite lose people leave open gaps for cutters as much as denver. Our offense seems to be fouls, put backs, and transition.
Spurs grinding back. Cavs halfcourt o is stagnating on occasion. Part due to spurs d.
Anyone seen Sheldon Mac play? If Cavs keep this performance up we might see him in junk time…
Don’t know him. Don’t think he has been in. But I don’t know a fair number of their current guys.
Cedi playing well. Cavs d is scrambling but disciplined. Helped by spurs anemic offense. But good activity. Kev has had some less than stellar effort plays though.
Kev pouting a bit leads to no box and easy putback.
Tov issues
Delly continuing to find cutters.
Popp looks truly ambivalent. Wonder how much longer he decides to coach with a team that is a long ways talent-wise from true contention.
Slick movements end to end, keeping the pressure up
Yeah. Fun qtr.
Larry splash!,,
Nice skip pass by cedi.
Delly gets smoked by derozan. If spurs come back, will likely be because they warm up from the perimeter and because cavs can’t figure out mixed d looks in the half court resulting stagnant iso offense. Sexton showing signs of this but getting bailed out by fouls.
Good challenge. JB trusting his players.
Feel bad for Paddy, but that was fun
Spurs cannot shoot. Cavs taking advantage of post pins in transition.
Cedi ain’t no bird
Zone look has cavs halfcourt o flummoxed.
Drummond providing some punch and decent play other than the misguided three.
Boy sexton is bad at running a break for anyone other than himself.
Sexton has to realize when to pull it back in transition.
Drummond needs to stop shooting threes. Never again.
Drummond back, will be interesting to see how he fits with Delly starting. Good start….
