Live Thread: Cavs vs Spurs
2024-01-07Happy afternoon, Cavs fans! Big shout out to my best friend from college, Eric, who’s taking his kids to their first Cavs game! It’s French week in Cavsdom,, with rookie phenom Frenchman, Victor Wembenyama coming to town for Cleveland’s battle with the Spurs. Enjoy today though, fans, cause after the Cavs only have one game between now and the 15th. After, the Cavs get ready to go to Paris to take on the Nets in the city of light: a one game in eight days road trip! It should be exciting!
Cedi Osman returns to town, but the word is, with guys coming back from injury he may not play as much. Meanwhile the Cavs are missing only Garland, Mobley the Younger, and Ty Jerome. The injury report looks smaller with Ricky Rubio’s recent retirement. Let’s hope the wine and gold win this for him.
Let’s go Cavs!
What the hell?!?!
Good timeout call, jb
Need a basket and a stop.
Come on close this out!
Game is NOT over
Wemby gets a lot of calls for a rookie.
Nice JA block on Wemby!
Cavs have played a pretty solid basketball game.
The nightstalker. Still love Cedi.
Minivan gots that G Thang!
The Strus is loose.
Max found his range!
YES!!! Nice little 9-0 run.
Not a great stretch
Cedi’s had a nice game.
Minivan Trey!
Win this quarter!
Money Caris!
Merrill’s gravity and great pass gave him a wide open look. Great offense.
Pop rage timeout.
was grabbing coffee. what happened?
7-0 run
WOULDN T HESITATE TO SUB IN —-WE NEED THIS”W”
What would Mrs. Nomad think?
Great play to find Allen on the mismatch.

Strus doesn’t have it today
Eh. It’s everyone else. Wade’s been abysmal.
Can’t disagree
Thing about strus is even when the J isn’t falling he does everything but scoring so well he doesn’t hurt you, and he’s still giving you his gravity.
Agreed. I just meant his 3 wasn’t falling.
EMONI WITH 38 LAST NIGHT—-8/15 FROM 3 —— BELIEVE HE WILL HELP US AT THE END OF THE YEAR 👍
The starters screwing it up again.
THEY PAID HOW MANY MILLIONS THIS PAST SUMMER FOR 3 PT SHOOTING—— CHEAPER/ BETTER MODEL WAS ALREADY HERE 👍👍———-CAVS NEED TO COME OUT 3RD QTR WITH A SENSE OF URGENCY AND PUT THIS TEAM AWAY——-LOSSES TO TEAMS LIKE THE SPURS COME BACK TO HAUNT YOU
So satisfying as a fan whose been watching Sam work in G league and Summer League to see him playing like this in the big show.
Merrill is a game changer off the bench man!!!
Bench really killed it there.
Just voted for Mitch, Merrill and JA to go to the AS game.
SAM MY MAN —- YES HE CAN 🏀🔥
Merrill needs to be in the 3-point contest this year.
Minivan 3!
Good lord Sam Merrill!!!
Let Merrill Cook!
Merrill gravity is everything.
Wemby grift.
M3rrill autonatic
Keep draining those 3s Sammy!
Good lord Merrill is ridiculous.
Caris had strus wide open, and also should’ve set a screen for Merill on the passback.
God, Niang is so bad.
this lineup playing well. TT great hustle.
Spurs moving and shooting well so far.
Tristan uses his badonkadonk to score on wemby.
More LeVert and Merrill. Less minivan and Okoro.
You know Pop isn’t happy with giving up that last second TD!
Caris with the steal and 3! Great close to the Q
LCC
Spectacular!
LET CARIS COOK!!!
Merrill Trey!
back to single digits.
Woof, Cedi.
Niang cooks Cedi with a drive from 1958.
Cedi sighting
subbed out four guys.
Sub in some shooting for Okoro
That Sochan shot is so ugly, no wonder Wade didn’t close out. Let’s hope the bench can give em something.
CAVS NEED TO WIN EVERY “ GIMME “ GAME—- GO CAVS
I’m liking the Cavs’ D and O, just gotta hit shots.
Cavs getting good looks. I think the big advantage is when Wemby goes to the bench.
Clear travl
Great screen, Allen, but Mitchell misses.
These home Sunday afternoon games feel like a road team advantage. We’re not New York or Miami.
Rough start.
Allen definitely fouled by both guys.
This has the makings of a trap game. Let’s hope they take care of business.
Thinking the same.
The game in Paris is a home game too.
Ostensibly…
