Live Thread: Cavs @ Knicks
2024-10-28Good evening CtB!
The Cavs are in Manhattan for a big time, early season Eastern Conference showdown against the New York Knicks. After three games in which the Cavs demolished their competition, here comes a real test against a recent nemesis. The Cavs’ offense stunk against New York’s defense in the playoffs and the Cavs got out-physicaled and out-rebounded by the Knicks too. Can Coach Kenny Atkinson change those recent trends and do the Knicks still have that toughness post-Karl Anthony Towns trade? Stay tuned…
Tip off is scheduled for 7:30PM Eastern time and will be broadcasted live on Fanduel Sports Network Ohio, Go Cavs!
Good Caris hook by Kenny.
That D by DG on Brunson was incredible.
Weak call on Mobley
Damn. Cmon Mitch
DG3!!!
Damn DG. Damn.
Nice lead extension w Donovan resting. Guessing he’s back for Sam now
Garland 🔥🔥🔥
Put them to the sword Darius!!!
Deeeeee Geeeeeee!!!
Let’s go Cavs!
Liking the Cavs discipline!!!
DG3
I think only a 2 pointer
The other one was a 3
Take the fricking shot
Finally got to turn on the game. How we doing? Who is killing it?
DG has looked a lot more like the DG of old. Floaters have been on point. Hitting 3s.
🙏
No Ice or Ty in the second half
Niang’s shift can now end
Good call
Looks like a run of the mill foul to me
Not a flagrant
Attaway Mitch
Niang leading +/- w +14. Go Geo gets!
By which I mean Georges
Tie game. Gritty.
Let’s go Cavs!
Thibs rage timeout
Good 3rd Q to cut the lead down.
Cavs battling here in the 3rd
Yes
Strus is our grittiest guy. We miss him vs NY.
Garbage 2nd quarter…but this is exactly what this team needs. Let’s see if Kenny is a coach or a roach. Halftime adjustments will make this game or break this team. Looking forward to this
Core 4 has been good. That is progress for the Garden. Mobes, DG, & Allen wilted in the POs 2 years ago.
Everyone else has been crappy.
Cavs get a rebound against the Knicks challenge: Impossible
We desperately need rebounding
Should have prob saved that challenge.
I thought the call was against Mobley?
Nice little fightback here before the boards bug bit again.
Alright that was a homer call to begin with and now they’re reviewing it? Wait is this a challenge or review for a flagrant?
Huh? Where was the foul?
Make sure to crouch down instead of boxing out Evan. You might accidentally get a rebound.
Hart has 10 rebounds. Block him out!
I’m liking DGs moxy right now
Can’t stand Brunson. Foul merchant flopping fool.
Yep probs my least favorite guy to watch in the entire league
Core 4 FGs: 12-20
Everyone else: 2-17
Could see this coming.
TOs, rebounds, betyer shooting needed.
Gotta stop turning it over and get some damn rebounds.
What’s up with these weird cameras on Fanduel? The first quarter was fine, but now everything is out of focus.
Clank, CLANK, clank CLANK, ClAnK
Rebound. It’s bad when you don’t.
Mobley neeeeds to develop a hesitation eurostep. He takes too big of strides and puts himself in un-adventageous places in relation to the hoop. Love the aggression though.
Someone put a body on Hart ffs.
Been on 31 for over 3 minutes.
Brunson flopping
Starting to slip away a bit.
Need to stabilize.
Hat tip McBride, hit that over Mobley who was right on it.
Payne and that ugly looking shot always torches us
Niang’s shift can end now
Our inability to clean the defensive glass is irritating as hell.
Affirmative.
Tough shooting both ways but Cavs led throughout Q1.
Rough shooting on both sides, but I like what we’re doing
Attaway Sam. You better hit that if you’re coming in before Ty.
Sam I am!
There ya go Sam!
Man we are cold – but so are the Knicks
Someone other than Garland needs to score
I despise the Knicks and pretty much all NY teams.
Little early for Caris and Sam?
Mitchell needs to stop forcing things but great start so far.
DG3!!!
Nice drive JA. Heard a stat today that Allen has more blocks than missed shots so far this season.
Boobie doing studio pregame!
Hart is questionable for them. I-Hart, DDV, and Robinson are significant rebounding/D/toughness losses. But adding KAT & Bridges is more top end talent.
Serious leasuring stick game tonight.. We’ll miss Struss, he’s one of our tougher guys.
