Live Thread: Jazz @ Cavs
2022-12-19Good evening CtB!
The Cavs welcome the Utah Jazz (AKA Cavs West) to the shores of Lake Erie in a highly anticipated matchup between two teams that executed the biggest blockbuster trade of the offseason. Both teams will missing key pieces including the hated Kelly Olynyk (NEVER FORGET), Collin “Young Bull” Sexton, Dean Wade, and Lamar Stevens.
As far as the game on the court, this will be a clash between a top five offense (Jazz) and the best defense in the NBA (Cavs). The Cavs will have to exploit the Jazz’s shaky defense (25th in defensive efficiency in the NBA) if they want to come out with the win tonight.
Tip off is scheduled for 7:00PM Eastern time and will be broadcasted live on Bally Sports Ohio/Great Lakes, GO CAVS!
Nice Kev to Ced give and go…
LeVert overpassing.
yup, getting scared after one missed shot KEEP SHOOTING CARIS
Or afraid to shoot.
DG STOPPING ON A DIME!
Slam on the brakes… they’ll fly right by
You beat me to it lol…
Man I do miss Markannen tho
THATS NOT A FOUL????????
DG +15 in 10 minutes, dude is BALLING
Passes the eye test
yes sir!
Man I’d love to see Diakite get some tries instead of old man Love.
Amen to this…
At least until his thumb heals…
Diakite was a psy-op conducted by the FBI, he doesn’t actually exist.
Except for that run with the abysmal Okoro lineup in the floor, that was a hell of a quarter.
Good end to the first quarter… 8-2 run…
Ball don’t lie.
SCREW YOU SCOTT FOSTER
Wtf? Transition take foul? Scott Foster is the WORST
Lauri is just a different player. He’s awesome.
He leveled up at Euro’s over the summer.
Cedi gotta finish those…
Caris too unselfish. Looked like he could have had a layup.
True…
WHAT A PASS DG!!!!!!!!! MOBLEY EASY MONEY
Mobes Johnny on the spot…
damn Lauri bodied Mobley there
Darius!
LETS GOOOOOOOOO DG IS COOKING
Vanderbilt was the guy I wanted added in the Mitchell trade.
CEDI GET UR HEAD IN THE GAME GIVE THE BALL UP
DG IS BACK BABYYYYYY
DG TO JA WITH BAD INTENTIONS
As much as I detest him, Olynyk makes a difference.
Particularly effective at dislocating people’s arm out of socket.
Well done Bw
7-0 run. Okoro can’t score and Love can’t defend.
yup KLOVE should be guarding Kessler TBH
Happy Birthday Beasley…
please put in Cedi JB
These Jazz unis somehow manage to be boring AND ugly.
Rudy Gay is definitely older than Will Hardy…
Rudy Gay has to be like 50 now, right?
Can we put Allen and Mobley in touch with Lauri’s strength coach?
The all-important good start!
Spida!
SPIDA ON PACE FOR 88, LETS GOOOOOOO
Holy shit, Donovan.
Incredible how balanced and buttery Mitchell’s shot looks virtually every time…
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOO DM FROM DOWNTOWN RAGE TIMEOUT!
Love how he went after the rookie Kessler!
Damn Spida!!!
NICE PASS ICE! JA FLUSH!
Great inside pass by Okoro…
Mobley shot a line drive there, needs to put some air under his floaters and hook shots.
Mobes didn’t have a good plan, but I like the aggressiveness…
100%
NICE ATTACK DG!
Tough one by Garland…
NICE PASS SPIDA TO JA!
bad TO DG move the ball quick!
Damn. Lauri got guns now.
Lauri really going to the hoop this season…
Spida bite.
LETS GOOOOOOOOO EG I HOPE YOU PUT MONEY ON THAT!!!
Yo let’s kick it…
Does Mitchell have all ten points?
Ice has two…
Ice! And then Jaz get it right back.
very shitty transition D right there got damn
Mitchell is cooking!
damn Lauri trying to posterize JA like he did Jokic last year!
Transition D
Thank God no Olynyk…

Give and go break with DG and DM… fun times

I WOULD HOPE TO THINK THE CAVS HAVE SOMEWHAT OF AN EDGE ON HOW TO DEFEND LAURI MORE SO I THINK THAN THE JAZZ HAVE ON SPIDA—-WE SHALL SEE —-CAVS HAVE TO START ‘ FOCUS DISCIPLING ” EVERY GAME —SLOW STARTS ARE NOT ALLOWED ON EITHER END—–AND YES JB NEEDS TO ” SHOW MORE TRUST ” IN THE BENCH PLAYERS —NETO NEEDS 6-9 MIN’S // GAME TO GIVE THE GDS A BLOW AND LET HIM BE A ” NEMISIS ” ON DFENSE —————GOOOO CAVS !!!
