Live Thread: Nuggets @ Cavs
2026-01-02Good evening CtB!
The Cavs welcome the Grand Rapids Gold AKA Denver Nuggets to the banks of the Cuyahoga River for a Friday night national TV showcase. The Cavs are looking to rack up wins and move up the Eastern Conference standings and get out of play-in territory. The Nuggets are looking to survive with their almost entire starting lineup being out with injury. The Cavs will also be out Sam Merrill and Dean Wade, but will welcome back DeAndre Hunter.
Tip off is scheduled for 7:30PM Eastern time and will be broadcasted nationally on Amazon Prime and locally on Fanduel Sports Network, Go Cavs!
ZERO TRANSITION DEFENSE FROM DG AND MOBLEY THAT WAS PATHETIC EFFORT

Spida and Garland completely failing the team tonight
Allen gotta shoot that
SHOOT THAT JARRETT WTF WAS THAT
TOMLIN IS A DEMON ON DEFENSE LETS GOOOOOOOO
CPJ NICE PASS TOMLIN DEFENSE >>>>>>
THE DEFENSE HAS BEEN TURBO ASS SINCE THE 2ND QUARTER 73 POINTS SINCE THEN
4/11 from the line incl 0/5 from EM and 0/2 from DM. Ugh
SPIDA AND GARLAND 7 TURNOVERS AND NOT GETTING IT TO THE BIGS, 4-11 FROM THE FREE THROW ZERO FOCUS
Oof, Nuggs shooting lights out.
That was a ridiculous call. Followed by a total brain fart by Hunter.
WHAT A FINISH SPIDA….. USE THE DAMN BIGS THO JESUS
SPIDA CLUTCH
Like this lineup!
Yup they defend, and they’re the lineup that made the run in the 2nd quarter
NAEQWAN CAME TO PLAY!!!!!!!
CPJ VISION >>>>>>>>>>
Fan just hit a $10K halfcourtvshot
Saw that. Shooting better than most of the team.
NICE FINISH DG NOW PLAY SOME DEFENSE FOR ONCE TONIGHT
Way to work out of a bad start.
Denver has only 2 turnovers?
Our perimeter defense has been non-existent
Really working that evening that corner well
THANK YOU CPJ
THAT WAS AN AWFUL SHOT SPIDA GET THE DAMN BALL INSIDE OF JARRETT ALLEN
Garland finally does something useful
FOUR TURNOVERS NOW FOR GARLAND YOURE A COWARD KENNY
JUST SHOOT OVER THE DEFENDER MOBLEY WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO BULLY AND BRING THE BALL DOWN???????
Tyson guarding Murray (or trying) is an idea. Let’s try it for awhile.
Get Garland off the floor. Come on.
GET TYSON AND GARLAND OUTTA THERE AND PUT HUNTER AND BALL IN KENNY
Get CPJ in there.
OR CPJ!!!!!!
Garland wtf
GET DG OUTTA THERE WTF WAS THAT ZERO DEFENSE AND ANOTHER TURNOVER
Out for a run this morning, realised the game was on and had to hot-foot it home! Looks like a good ‘un.
Pleasantly effective contributions from Ball and Hunter
HUNTER BIG THREE… TOO BAD WE CANT PLAY ANY DEFENSE ON MURRAY LETS TRY AND DOUBLE HIM MAYBE KENNY???????????????/
Maybe put someone other than Garland on Murray.
He’s frying us every time we’re going to DG/Mitchell backcourt
THANK YOU SPIDA FEELING THE MOMENT MAKE A RUN TO HALF
Hunter actually rebounding. Its so weird
THANK GOD DG TO HUNTER THREE NOW PLAY SOME DEFENSE FFS
DG TOTALLY ASLEEP WEAK SIDE DEFENSE WAKE UP AND DITCH THE ZONE KENNY WTF WAS THAT
Darius got caught watching the paint dry.
Like he pace and the patience. Lonzo not forcing anything stupid. Murray’s hot though.
LONZO LOCKDOWN DEFENSE ON MURRAY THATS HOW YOU DO IT
SHOOT THAT MOBLEY YOU’RE WIDE OPEN IN THE PAINT
NICE READ LONZO EASY MONEY FOR JA IN THE PAINT!
LONZO BALL CORNER 3 RAGE TIMEOUT NUGGIES!!!! NICE PASS JA!
SPIDA BULLY BALL >>>>>>
LETS GO GREAT DEFENSE JA!!!!!!
Tomlin’s feel for the game is so good.
WHAT A PASS SPIDA
Love the offensive patience. Don’t love Mobley staring down that three pointer from the corner without closing.
Sweet finish in on the lob, Mobley
MOBLEY HAD MURRAY ON HIM READ THAT SHIT SPIDA OR CPJ
WHAT A PASS HUNTER TO MOBLEY!!!!!!!! AND ONE !!!
MURRAY IS COOKING DG OVER AND OVER KENNY WAKE UP
CPJ BLOW BY LETS GO
MOBLEY MVP
MY GOD GET YOUR HEADS IN THE GAME
DG airball, dies on a screen and gives up a Murray 3, then turnover with a sloppy pass…. embarrassing start
