Live Thread: Kings @ Cavs
2022-12-09Good evening CtB!
The Cavs welcome NBA Champion Matthew Dellavedova and the Sacramento Kings to the shores of Lake Erie, hoping to avenge a 120-127 loss during their west coast tour. Coach Mike Brown has his guys playing some fantastic ball, so the Cavs will have their work cut out for them if they want to earn that W. Both teams will be without their premier perimeter player as De’Aaron Fox and Donovan Mitchell will sit this one out with injuries. Rumors are Caris LeVert will be starting in his place. Kevin Love and Terence Davis will both also be out with injury/sickness, so both teams are dealing with issues.
This matchup features the best defense in the NBA (Cavs) against a top 5 offense (Kings). This is also a matchup about who can control the pace of the game, with the Cavs being the slowest paced team in the NBA versus a top 6 fastest pace team in the Kings. “Styles make fights” so it should be a great test for the Cavs regarding how to impose their will onto the opponent.
Tip off is scheduled for 7:30PM and will be broadcasted live on Bally Sports Ohio/Great Lakes, GO CAVS!
Stevens hustle bucket.
If they can’t make 3s then feed the bigs
STEVENS HUSTLE
Nice fight Lamar!
Cedi wide open
Feed Allen
Cavs not playing like they much care about winning this one…maybe they wake up eventually, maybe not…
Are we turning into the team that can’t win without their beat player again?
I think it’s that we’re missing Mitchell, Love and Wade.
3 of the best shooters!!! LMFAOOOO
Mobley getting the benefit on some calls.
Mike Brown denying the ball to Garland. Smart. Cavs will have trouble.
Can’t make FTs, can’t make rim shots… 🤦♂️
wow, Cedi is bricking easy looks, might not be their night tonight.
How many missed shots at the rim tonight?
Woof. No gravity. No spacing. Defense is easy for kings right now.
Kings 7-9 on threes that quarter…if they keep up even near that pace they aren’t losing…
I rag on Daugherty as a commentator, but he just dropped a giannis comparison and referred to him as antetokounmpo. That’s some commentator juevos right there. Hat tip good sir.
20 points. wish someone would step up
Come on Okoro.
you didnt like the kick out to a guy and force a half court shot strategy?
Shit quarter!
WTF WAS THAT DEFENSE OKORO?
They be looking like these guys out there
If Cedi could have a big night, that’d be great.
GREAT PATIENCE CEDI LETS GOO I LIKE THIS LINEUP
Cedi the best player for Cavs tonight
NETO GREAT DEFENSE ON DELLY!
Pest on pest
Not feeling great about this lineup
GIVE THE DAMN BALL TO MOBLEY
Delly in the house.
Caris got away with a walk.

We are bottom dwellers without mitchell. Coach has this team about as ready to play as zombies
Finally a 3!
Cavs sleepwalking.
Neto lives!
This team stinks offensively lately!
Cavs in bonus. Gotta beat a path to the basket.
Hey look Neto!
about damn time
Stevens with abysmal help d. Screened his own man.
Very sloppy quartwr
Can’t have Stevens and Okoro in the game together.
Doma whines a lot
He rank’s pretty high on the obnoxious opponent scale. Feels like he injures someone every time we face him too.
Murray 12 points
Cavs 11 points
We need more shooting.
Gotta stop over helping
stevens guilty party to my eye, prob Mobley too.
Someone guard Murray. 4/4 from 3
Yeah
Garland gotta stop taking the first shot available
Why can’t the Cavs shoot like this when they’re on the road?
There guys are making every 3, and we are missing every 3.
Good defense
Ugly start. Cavs continue to struggle making shots.
Elis guy barnes killing it early
No sound. Did. Mike brown call to?
Hi hand-off to the fro!
Go Cavs!
If I don’t say this often enough, I’m super thankful for you all.
Got a glass of glass 12 yo of Belvanie and a tough week under my belt and ready to watch some Cavs.
Hell yeah. Not so fancy here. Got me some Swensons and some Jackie-O’s holiday ale to feast upon.
I’ve gotta couple bottles of Cab and a sixer of Xmas ale to dip into. MORE BEER PLEASE!
Sure glad to have a game tonight! CtB discussions can go down the rabbit hole when there is no action to focus on.
