Live Thread: 76ers @ Cavs
2022-03-16Good evening CtB!
Tonight the Cavs play host on the shores of Lake Erie to the Philadelphia 76ers in a massive Eastern Conference clash of playoff teams. These teams have already faced off twice so far this season, with the Sixers taking both. The Cavs haven’t been able to put a complete game together against the Sixers, with one side of the ball faltering in each game. Hopefully the Cavs can give them a little payback, right Mr. Cavalier?
Yes I feel u, it’s payback time Go Cavs https://t.co/7rztkiTjgp

Keys to the game
Two stats jump out while talking about the Sixers: rebounding and pace. Despite having MVP candidate Joel Embiid at the helm, Philly is one of the worst rebounding teams in the NBA. The Cavs would be wise to attack the glass and make them pay if they don’t want to hustle to the ball.
As far as pace is concerned, the Sixers HATE to run… like, at all. They are one of the slowest paced teams on offense in the NBA, and they give up the third most fastbreak points per game in the NBA this season. The young, fresh legged and fit Cavaliers should get their track shoes on and run this team into the ground.
Tip off is scheduled for 7:00PM ET and will be broadcasted live on Bally Sports Ohio/Great Lakes, Go Cavs!
Is Mobley the most patient dude in the game or what?
Methusala-like.
MOBLEY WITH THE FINISH!!! (DG missed Lauri for three tho)
We have got to hit more wide open looks if we’re gonna compete with the better teams…we need players besides garland to knock those shots down
Are we the only contender that consistently misses wide open threes?
WHAT THE HELL OKORO WAS SHOVED!!!!!
HE GOT SLAPPED
Great start, looking sharp!!
WHAT A PASS LAURI!
Cavs defense getting shredded, and the Cavs aren’t taking nor making nearly enough 3s.
rough half but good fight. want at least one more moses run…that was so fun.
DAMMIT
good for my CtB fantasy team but I don’t care LMFAOOO
Harris. Man, SMH.
So is traveling still 3 steps or is it 4 now
STEVENS WHAT A FINISH!!!! GREAT HUSTLE!
STEVENS DAWGN ON D
Smart iso by Garland.
More Moses!
DG with another rat turd sweep through, haha.

THATS RIGHT
embiid’s unconscious
STEVENS NICE FINISH!
Cavs get absolutely no calls. I think JB needs to start getting thrown out of more games
REFS ARE TRASH
DG TO ICE FOR THREE! RAGE TIMEOUT!
just imagine him developing that corner 3 to about 38%. enough to get you drooling
WHAT A FINISH DG!!! OFF HAND!
That was nasty.
CRY ABOUT IT MATISSE TO YOUR RAT TEAMMATE
DG with turd revenge
Okoro doesn’t get the call then that tick tack shit because it’s harden. F@#K
CARIS LEVERT WHAT A PLAY AND ONE!!!!
can’t lose margin with embiid on the bench and expect to compete
WHAT A FINISH CARIS!
Not getting any stops. Philly getting whatever they want
MAXEY HAS CAREER GAMES EVERY TIME HE PLAYS THE CAVS
dg not the best defender
I hate this SeventyGrifters team.
Following basically the game thread.. and it’s like Philly is scoring on every possession.
Harden with his bullshit HE INITIATED THE CONTACT
this is where you send a message man. need one Perk minute to give him a second thought.
HOLY MOSES—-MAYBE KOBY FOUND ANOTHER ‘HIDDEN GEM” AKA: HARD ROCK LAST YEAR —-
BROWN NICE FINISH!
Holy cow man Moses was awesome finishing that quarter. Did we just get sneaky deep at Center?
goodwin changed everything
Well. Could have been worse.
CARIS LEVERT EASY MONEY
moses!!!!!!
First I’ve seen of Moses. Seems like a decent project big.
KLove old man ball. Love it
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOO
KLOVE IN THE POST!
KLOVE DRIVE AND FINISH!!!!! TURN BACK THE CLOCK!
insane that rondo ever gets mins
Moses, Goodwin, Windler bringing hustle to the game
Brown!
WINDLER STEAL!!! GOODWIN TO MOSES!!!
The is painful.
worst loss of the season incoming…
DG AND ONE! needed that one
ouch. we are effed. embiid might get 50+
He might get 100 at this pace
Embiid. Foul merchantm
MOBLEY STRONG TO THE RACK!
Damn Windler in early!
Gotta make that, 6 point swing
ICE WHAT A FINISH!
welp, Cavs come out flat and Philly taking care of business, hopefully Cavs want to join the party some time soon!
The tank isn’t very stealthy so far.
Cavs missing everything
STEVENS dawg time
Gonna be so absolutely scintillating FT action tonight…
Harden with harden bullshit already
STEVENS with the start, hmm
Cavs have been in shouting distance in both games close to the end. Gonna need our bench to win their mins and probably need Darius to go off for an efficient 30+…and keep mobley from foul trouble…and somehow contain Maxey. He’s the secret weapon Philly springs on teams man. Just devastatingly good and forces opposing guards to work really hard on d
Maxey is def a problem.
Embiid was questionable…anyone heard an update?
expected to play last i heard but if his tailbone is too sore during warmups he’ll be a scratch. It’s possible he doesn’t play
all indications he’s playing
