Live Thread: Cavs @ Raptors
2024-10-23Good evening CtB and welcome back!
The Cavs have traversed to the shores of Lake Ontario to take on the LeBronto Raptors to open the 2024-25 NBA campaign. The Cavs are looking for championship contender legitimacy, while the Raptors are looking for their rebuilt to truly take off with Scottie Barnes at the helm. Both teams have key injuries, but LeBronto comes into this matchup a little more wounded. The Cavs are solid favorites at 6.5 points.
What are we looking for tonight? First off, can the Cavs make any threes? They did not in preseason, so hopefully that changes. Secondly, can they rebound? They did not in preseason, and this is probably a bigger problem than the three point shooting. LeBronto provides a solid test, and coming out with a win would be a solid one.
Tip off is scheduled for 7:30PM Eastern time and will be broadcast live on Fanduel Sports Go Cavs!
Read a comment somewhere yesterday saying that the Cavs were not going to take the preseason seriously. Lol.
