Live Thread: Cavs @ Grizzlies
2024-02-01Greetings, Cavs fans! After a squeaker against the Pistons last night that had some Cavs fans a little nervous (the game was never in doubt), the Cavs take on the Grizzlies sans Evan Monley, who’s not playing back-to-back yet. Also out indefinitely is our gipper, Ty Jerome.
For the Grizzlies, it’s a casualty report. The Cavs just need to play solid ball and work on re-integrating Garland (-19 last game) into the pace and motion offense. Don’t get cocky and they got this.
This Memphis team, just bad news bears season, man. Brutal
Oh man, nastry fall for Jackson.
Better ball movement already….
DG with a quick 5
Maybe that gets DG going…
DG3!
LeVert leads the way at -17
Jones looked like he couldn’t believe they put him on the court. There’s more coaches than players and that was there best plan for minutes? Garland, Merrill, niang, jones , and caris? That lineup looked like they couldn’t win a rec league game
Both teams have 20 FGs, Grizz 2 more triples.
We are +6 on the glass & -3 on TOs. Grizz are +5 at the FT line on 2 more attempts.
Grizz with 7 blocks..
JA despite the missed bunnies already with a double double…
Wow, don, just so smooth
Well, down 7. Lot of game to go.
But gonna have to play harder, smarter, and take better care of the ball.
Spida Mitchell baby!
Spida keeps them within range… rough first half tho
I miss the ole Cavs . Defense spacing ball movement
Close it out.
Tony Brothers must have a nephew on a 10 day with the Grizz…
Okoro careless with the ball. Surprising.
Can’t catch a break
Refballed
Mitchell fouled with no call
Tony Brothers and his crew…
The worst ref in the league by a mile.
I don’t know some of this new flock is pretty incompetent.
Still battling. Getting blocks & o-boards.
JA with tired legs
Then he has a monster block
JA not having a great night offensively, either.
G-Wagon!
G-Wagon!!!!
DG still in 🤦♂️
Memphis has a ton of blocks and Garland a ton of bricks.
😂
What the eff is going on? Please, explain how that lineup deserved extended run like that? Like, how was that useful? Also, does garland know who the shooters are on the floor? Jeez
I know it is early after the injury, but the more I see of Garland, the less I like his game.
I just haven’t seen him mesh well with Spida after a year and a half. I still like DG’s game. He’s had a rough year for sure.
I know Garland just came back and is on a b2b but he’s stinking it up.
Garland should sit for a while.
He has been terrible all year. Pre jaw.
Agreed.
Agree unfortunately.
I prefer Spida at PG over Garland.
Darius needs to sit. CPJ time…
Spida gonna have to save em…
DG dribbling his way into troublesome spots.
Just like old times!
Needed that Sam!
Whew!
We needed that, thanks Sam.
Bring in CPJ!
YAAASSSS!!!!
Turnovers…
Garland woof!
I really dislike the DG, Merrill, Niang 2nd unit.
Too porous on D.

Grizz getting the shots they want. Defense needs to wake up.
The Lakers are up 14 on the Celtics, in Boston, without Bron & AD. At half.
Dlo lighting it up?
A poor quarter.
Tied up.
So many missed bunnies…
😢
DJ block!
Hoping Max is due for some variance correction from three…
Clippers game.
When’s the last time Strus hit a 3?
The Eisenhower administration
I like Ike!
5 TOs with 3 min left in Q1. Too Shaqadaisical.
On pace for 27.
We’re integrating Garlands talents!
Grizz should just sign as many Jackson’s as they can now…
JA feasting
Fro the hammer down!
JA laughing about missing that bunny.
Jarrett should be an All Star as well but glad Spida made it…
Randle and Embiid are gonna miss the game.
So you’re telling me there’s a chance…
I mean, in the past, Silver has gone with the next highest vote getter.
But one replacement should be a frontcourt guy.
Alright, order restored. 9-0 run.
Spida the magician!
James Dean!
Garland sucking early.
He does love a turnover.
Apple or stawberry?
He doesn’t discriminate!
Like Detroit, Memphis will play hard. They are thirsty for wins, if we let them hang around, it will be a dogfight.
Adams traded to Houston for Oladipo
Someone got picks, 2nd rounders. Not sure who. I would think Memphis.
Get that weak stuff outta here!
Good start. JA block and Spida triple..
Pacers up by 10 on Knicks
NY is down Randle, Robinson, OG (starting frontcourt) plus some reserves, Grimes and a couple more.
Trap game
Mitch an AS as expected
He or Brunson should be starting over Dame, but whatever.
Agreed.
Eight Men Out for Memphis, with Aldams, Kennard, & Konchar possibly as well. Lordy, that is horrific.
JJJ is legit, so a bad night to be missing Mobely. So I guess some Jones tonight. Wade should get more burn tonight as he an Niang should have all the PF minutes.
AM HUNGRY FOR “ BEAR 🐻 BURGER 🍔 “ —-DID ANYONE ELSE SEE “ELDER “ GAME WINNING SLAM DUNK—— HE MIGHT NOT BE AN “ UBER “ ATHLETE—- BUT HE ISNT TOO SHABBY EITHER WITH A GREAT BASKETBALL 🏀 I Q ——-GO CAVS
