Live Thread: Cavs @ Kings (Cavs After Dark, Part II)
2025-03-19Good evening CtB,
The Cavs took the midnight train up to the Sacramento Valley to take on the Kings for another late night West Coast tilt. The good guys are facing perhaps their greatest adversity of the regular season finally as they’ve dropped two against playoff hungry teams at an inopportune time with the first overall seed in play. The Cavs face another desperate team scraping up the standings, though they have several key injuries to limit their potential for handing the Cavs a 3rd straight loss.
Can the Cavs bounce back? Will the Cavs REBOUND??? This will define their entire future. Whenever they lose, they don’t rebound and play soft. Until they stop looking like a finesse team, this will always be a criticism. Now’s the time to re-assert their physicality and competitive toughness.
Tip off is scheduled for 10:00PM Eastern time and will be broadcasted live on Fanduel Sports Network, Go Cavs!
OUTREBOUNDED, OUTASSISTED, OUTCOMPETED
Cavs really playing like dogshit lately.
We lost the lead. Good job.
Carter owned Allen in two straight plays
Jerome. You can’t give up the baseline.
Dude. We gotta play tighter on the 3 point shooters
EVAN MOBLEY HASN’T REBOUNDED IN TWO STRAIGHT GAMES
3 IN 18 TONIGHT, 3 IN 31 MINUTES AGAINST THE CLIPPERS, CALI FLU ?????
Still coming back from injury
Valanciunas is killing us on the boards.
Cavs need a big body.
De’Andre. Butter
Moses Brown may be required.
Valanciunas in the paint for a year.
The 2nd guy always gets in trouble Strus.
I liked AC’s response. “Sometimes you gotta let em know”
I agree Go Cavs
Strus is the Cavs spirit animal tonight
D Wade finding his shot.
Love the killer mentality.
THANK YOU DEAN WADE MVP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don’t bite on the DeRozan grift.
TY JEROME WHY ARE YOU TAKING 13 SHOTS IN 13 MINUTES FOR 12 POINTS?????????????????????
CARIS LEVERT WAS SLANDERED FOR LESS
He played till a minute left. I honestly didn’t mind the offense that much they needed a chucker It was the traffic cone D I was annoyed by
CPJ ONLY BENCH PLAYER WITH A POSITIVE PLUS/MINUS
FREE JAYLON AND JEVONTE KA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
James Dean Wade
Wtf derozen 🤯
Dean came to play!
Looked great, big minutes, playing Val great on those switches on d. strus was getting ate up down low when big would go to help
Where’s spida?
Jerome with awful D on Monk
That was not a three by Jerome but a good shotm
No shit. That will get reduced.
Like 12 inches in front of the line…
I don’t know why they called that a 3?!
About to call out Jerome and then he scores two straight
Strus with ridiculous follow
I’m not sure the Jerome, CPJ, Okoro lineups is an improvement.
KA SMOKING THAT CALI CRACK
Strus is such a difference maker.
Too much reachingn on the d boards. Not enough feet moving.
GET THE DAMN REBOUND. DONT LET THAT RUSSIAN THUG BULLY YOU!
Professional faller down, Demar DeRozan
The DeRozan grift.
That was not a foul.
TY gotta stop bitching about no calls
Chris’s guy, Keon Ellis
<3
OKORO MAKE A WISH MINUTES NEED TO END
Lol. He’s been good
8 minutes ZERO REBOUNDS, 1 turnover, nearly had 2 when he played hot potato, -3 plus/minus, agree to disagree
They needed his defensive intensity and negative gravity.
DeRozan flop.
Dumb foul call on Okoro.
Mobley, that’s three times he’s gotten his pocket picked trying to dribble through the lane. Trying too much, he’s usually good passing out of those stunts to the open man
Opposing teams finally wised up and never guard Okoro
FREE CPJ!!!!!!!!! LET BALLERS BALL
More Strus. Less Merrill here.
CPJ SIGHTING MERRILL BENCHING I LOVE IT
Spida with the And1
ZERO REBOUNDS FOR THE ENTIRE BENCH OUTSIDE OF HUNTER… GET YOUR ASSES IN THE GAME
Fultz w a Shaqtin-a-fool moment.
LMFAO fultz
Okoro like a man possessed! Been reading your slander,Chris!
ZERO REBOUNDS HE SHOULD READ MORE CAREFULLY
Stocks, man
Okoro with a few nice plays. A steal, block and a 3.
12 PT LEAD EVAPORATED 🤬
Nice steal Okoro.
“ GREEN LIGHT 🚦 “ WILL GET YOU A REBOUND/ POSSESSION GETTER—-
Okoro is in. Can he get a rebound?
MY HS TEAM s SCORE MORE THAN 15 / QTR -/— KEEP THE CLAMPS 🗜️ ON 👍💪

Max Strus underrated leader
JAMES DEAN WADE!!!!! THANK YOU KA FOR STARTING WADE OVER ICE… MAYBE NOW YOU’LL PAIR HIM WITH MERRILL
Here’s hoping
Wade back in as situational starter. Looking good against this tp soft kings team. Can see him getting more comfortable.
Solid start!
I LIKE THE BIG LINEUP!!!!! FINALLY SOME DEFENSE AND SIZE!
Beautiful two man with Allen and strus
LETS GOOO GREAT START CAVS!!! KEEP IT GOING
That was a bad foul by Allen.
Thought I saw savings was going to play tonight. Jv game is softer than sabonis’, in a way
Nah, he really messed up his ankle bad, he’s lucky it wasn’t broken.
GOOD JOB CLF 👍👍——- KA WAS NOT HAPPY WITH THE PERFORMANCE LAST NIGHT—— WASNT HIS BEST COACHING EITHER—— “ ALOT OF TEAMS ARE GOING INTO PLAYOFF MODE —— NOT SAYING CAVS HAVE TO GO 100% —— BUT NEED TO REGAIN THEIR FOCUS/ ENERGY/ ATTENTION TO DETAIL——-AND FRIGGIN REBOUND DRE / ICE NEED TO IMPROVE IN THIS AREA—— GO CAVS —-START ANOTHER STREAK 👍🏀
NICE BOUNCE BACK DEAN!!! GOOD D AND 3!!!

Hopefully Valanciunas doesn’t injure any of our players.
