Live Thread: Cavs vs Pacers
2021-03-03We’ll see how bad the Cavs are still battling growing pains tonight, and if they can compete with a very solid Pacers team. Indy’s lost four straight, and need a win going into the halfway point of the season. Surprise starter? Domantas “Boner” Sabonis (thanks, Jason) is returning from injury. The Pacers are only missing T.J. Warren and Caris LeVert and are more healthy than they’ve been in a while. The Cavs are missing Delly, Kev, and Lary Nance as both teams trend towards health heading into the All-Star break. Let’s see if the Cavs can keep the win streak going against a decent squad. Should be a fun one!
Jesus sexton had an 8 second violation at the end of the qtr.
WOW, steal fest
WOO TEAR DROP DG!!! needed that.
The NBA single game steals record is 11. McConnell has 6 so far…
There’s number 7…
Reminds me of houston game. Cavs careless. Mconnell reminds me of delly. Real pest on d.
glad we’re playing McConnell tonight, gonna be a lot of tape to see about how to go against an elite defender.
DG going to school tonight.
Absolute bullshit call ref they’ll letting defenders play.
McConnell is going to get the NBA steals record tonight…
WADE HUGE REBOUND!
Wonder if the Cavs will get tired of giving the ball to McConnell or nah…
Does not seem like it.
Nice Sexton pass to Javale for the oop…
GREAT PASS SEXTON!!!
WINDLER THREE HUGE REBOUNDS IN A MINUTE!!!!!!
REBOUND WINDLER!!!! WHAT A FINISH SEXTON!!!!!
GREAT PLAY PRINCE!
Growing Pains is appropriate beyond the Saboner reference.
CEDI WITH THE KISS!!!!! 1 point game! We gotta good one now!
Some timely scoring from YB to help stem the tide. Back within 1.
“Sweatband” Cedi attacking the hoop…
nice take Sexton.
ON THAT 8 SECOND CALL —-OUR GREAT IB SKILL —WE PASS INTO A DOUBLE TEAM INSTEAD TO A WIDE OPEN WINDL3R ON THE OTHER SIDE—-WTF
what the hell defense was that Sexton???????
same goes for Prince????
TJ McConnell saved the Pacers.
HOPE JB ‘LIT ” INTO THEM
During that 13-0 Pacers run, we had 5 TOs. 8 for the quarter. On pace for 32!
I especially loved the 8 second violation with a chance to take the last good shot.
And we are still tied.
JB likes to let the guys make mistakes. Hope they are learning.
HAVE THE PLAYERS GO JUMP IN A COLD SHOWER —WAKE THE F–K UP
I would say the Cavs should have a big lead, but with all those giveaways, they’re lucky they’re not down by 14…
MCGEE WITH THE GREAT DEFENSE!
WAKE UP COLLIN!!!!! that’s inexcusable.
CAVS STEPPING UP ON DEFENSE!
Nice D by Windler…
CEDI WITH THE BRILLIANT PLAY!!!! MCGEE SLAM!
WINDLER WITH THE GET BACK!
5 steals for McConnell??????????
I’m 52% certain the Cavs are all drunk…
Pacer backups came in and defended like crazy
Cavs need to step it up on defense.
Wake up dum dums.
Can we go 2 straight trips without McConnell getting a steal? Geez.
E.V.A.P.O.R.A.T.I.O.N.
Can’t watch for a bit btw. Hopefully join u guys in the third.
That 9 point lead went away quickly.
Cavs go brain dead on a dime.
WTF —YEP I AM SCREAMIN FOR REAL …..AND I AM NOT GOING TO CALM DOWN
WOW, McConnell a terror on defense
Yeesh, give the Pacers fast break practice on these TOs…
We do TOs in bunches.
Dang. Wish that sexton 3 would have gone down. Got some momentum going
Momentum flushed.
WOW WHAT A PASS DG!!!!!
Allen is an unstoppable dunking mochine…
WTF DID I JUST POST
STILL TOO MUCH DRIBBLING AT TIMES WITH DG —–CALM DOWN NOMAD…….”MORE BEER PLEASE ” AND SEXTON
HAD ME SREAMING WHEN THEY DIDN’T INITIALLY GET THAT PASS TO ALLEN ON THE MISMATCH——EVERYTHING GOOD—-CALM DOWN NOMAD …….”MORE BEER PLEASE ‘

NICE PATIENCE!!!! ALLEN BULLY BALL!!!!
LOL Allen…when he gets a mismatch like that it’s seeya later…

GREAT DEFENSE WADE!!!!!!!!
there you go Sexton!!!! GREAT PASS! WHAT A FINISH ALLEN!
Really been impressed by Wade…he’s an NBA player…
Yep. I believe you are right.
hope he continues to get minutes he looks really promising right now, stellar so far this game!!!!
Lousy shot, Collin…
that was a yikes LMFAOO not sure about both of the guards’ shooting selection early on.
We were humming along and then Sexland went 1/5.
Then a nice run. Back to Allen. DG with a 3. And a couple stops, finally.
Up 7.
Allen is crashing the glass big time, love it!
DG CRAFTY AGAINST THE BIG MAN!!! found a better shot than the last two shots.
WADE WITH THE STEAL!!!!
dang it Collin couldn’t finish
nice bounce back Sexton.
Good D so far. ;(
YEP DG AND ALLEN REALLY FORMING A NICE CHEMISTRY
weird TO JB, don’t know what he saw that he didn’t like, must’ve been a blown defensive assignment.
MEAN DEAN ON FIRE !!!!
WADE AGAIN~!!!!!!!!!! WOOO!!!!!!!!!!
they’re blitzing collin on the PnR.
WADE FOR THREE!!! GREAT READ SEXTON!
WOW CLUTCH PASS DG!!!
The DG to Allen pick and roll is one of the best in the league…

Sounds like Sabonis is a go.
Bummer. Our chances of a W just went down. Still have a shot, though.
