Live Thread: Cavs @ Bucks
2024-11-02Happy Saturday, Cavs fans! Your 6-0 Cavaliers continue their road show in Milwaukee tonight, on the back half of a b2b against the struggling Bucks. Milwaukee has started the season 1-4 and have only held one team under 115 points in that stretch, when they won their opener 125-109 over the similarly struggling Sixers. Milwaukee surely considers this a barometer, with Cleveland resting some folks, and the Bucks trying to get back to the winning ways of previous seasons.
I’m drunk on Hatorade with our predictions of the Haslams being a wrecking ball for the Bucks while Cleveland has started out as the hottest team in the association and looks incredibly deep, especially at the guard spots. Cleveland will be without one of their early season stars, as they’ve given Caris LeVert the night off to rest his knee. Jaylon Tyson is also out with a hip injury, while Max Strus remains sidelined with an ankle injury. For the Bucks, Khris Middleton remains out so far this year.
We’ll see if Cleveland can keep up its winning ways. I was especially impressed with the way the Cavs absorbed the runs from Orlando last night, but never let the lead dip below three possessions – holding serve when they needed to. They’ll have to do more of the same tonight, as I’m sure Giannis and Co. are hungry for a win. Go Cavs!
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Wow! What a game! Great efforts by Isaac and Sam tonight. The bigs absolutely had their hands full with trying to stop Giannis, and they hung in there.
Spida with the big shot at the end delivers the goods.
This team feels like it could be special.
Ain’t that something….I thought this might be the fall back game.Crazy good effort.
Donovan agrees with Nate. Giving credit to Ice’s rebounding.
Don giving Ice all the credit for the win
Damn. Great finish there. Spida!
Okoro trending the right way.
Tuned in late, what is up with Caris?
Knee soreness. We could have used it
Sore knee. Resting on b2b
Thanks, guys. I see it in the preview, now. Lazy me.
That’s two SEGOB2B wins this year. Both on the road. This one without 2 of our top 6 six guys.
Bucks were pissed about that egg they laid last night, especialluly Dame.
Hot damn. Hell of a fight. Go Cavs!
7-0
Spida!!!!
YES… GO CAVS!!!
Holy hell Mitch!!!
Well at least it’s not JB dialing up this next play.
They scored very early. Like the Cavs chances here with ten seconds
9 seconds to end this
If giannis has you beat you gotta make him earn it.
Hope they don’t foul Giannis or Dame.
Hell of a game. Mitchell can’t try to foul bait with game on the line.
He tried that just now on the attempt.
Holy shit. This ending. Yikes.
Free throws win games JA
Always..
Okoro rebounding. WTF
Ice should have taken the open 3. He hesitated and passed off.
Cavs unreal inside.
yup, but honestly not gonna be too mad about that he’d probably miss tbh LMFAO
Ice with the hustle.
OKORO WITH THE FUCKING REBOUND LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Terrible call.
NVm. Good call
Wedgie!
Wedgie.
On the floor.
Allen so good
Ice boxed out and got a big rebound!
Great board okoro!
Darius gotta finish that closeout. Holy shit ice trey.
Good TO. Crunch time.
BIG BOY MOVE MOBLEY
Yeah. Great strength
SAM MERRILL BAILING THE CAVS OUT
I am Sam.
Giannis blocked Niang!
SAM MERRILL APOLOGY FORMS DUE MONDAY
Merrill with the Kyle Korver inside cut!
Attaway Sam
Sam I am.
Gorgeous Georges
Trying like hell to give this a plus 1. Does anyone else have trouble getting those to register on mobile devices?
I think fixed it. Lmk
Blam. +1 issued.
Honestly it’s probably fat fingers more than anything.
SAM I AM WHAT A CLUTCH SHOT
like he shot that in less than 1 second
PORTIS ALWAYS PLAYS US TOUGH—-/ IS “ GEM “ JEROME OK / FEW MINUTES——??
Did tt give Niang some business cards?
Holy spida
Like how did he make that ?
How’s that a foul on Mitchell?
Bucks getting every call.
Man I wish Okoro could rebound.
Just caught up. Good ballgame
Ice has picked up the Caris slack thank god, hopefully he has one more push in im
You know what makes me happiest so far in this game? Watching ICE and Dwade play man defense. They are studs.
Sooooo glad the Cavs are getting tested. Squeeze out the best we got, Milwaukee.
We miss caris like crazy. But if we continue the good habits we should win by a comfortable margin. The bucks are a typical doc rivers team. Three standouts…one glue guy…and streaky. Clamp down on d and run them to death.
.
Two bad 3 point shot attempts lead to 5 pts by the Bucks.. sigh
ICE MIGHT BE READY TO TURN “ THE KA CORNER IMPROVEMENT “ —- THAT WOULD BE HUGE
Just imagine!
Really nice run/close to the half.
NICE COMEBACK—— GOOD TO SEE THE FIGHT/ CONFIDENCE
HAVE TO REMEMBER—— BACK/ BACK GAME—- AWAY GAME——DESPERATE TEAM AIMING TO “ RIGHT THE SHIP “ —— CARIS OUT DOESNT HELP EITHER
SPIDA! Ties it up!
IC3!
LFG!!!
MOBLEY KISS RAGE TIMEOUT GLENN!
Gotta put a body on Lillard
Lillard gets a lot of phantom calls
I thought I was way behind. But it’s still the first quarter. Glad it’s closer than when this started.
Ugh. Looks like last year’s Cavs showed up tonight. Our bigs better snap out of it and work.
it’s the 2nd night of a home road back to back against a supposed championship contender, i’d agree with you if this was against the Jazz or Wizards LOL
we look like we’re sleepwalking on defense, which we probably actually are LMFAO
Bucks can keep launching all they like, they can’t stop Cavs inside.
Good observation, they looking a little soft in the paint.
This might be a schedule loss, ADAM SILVER FOR PRISON
LETS GOOOOO THANK YOU NATE!
Just heard Niang talk, I’ll sign the apology form, he’s basically a player coach, he’s very articulate and smart easy to see why the Cavs want him around.
He’s a massive locker room positive. He also hates Ben Simmons, which is a good character trait.
O-H -I- O ———GREAT WIN BY THE THE BUCKEYES —— KEEP IT GOING CAVS
What happened to Vert’s knee?
right knee soreness… doesn’t sounds serious just maintenance hopefully
