Live Thread: Cavs @ Blazers
2026-02-01Good evening CtB!
The Cavs have traversed to Willamette Valley to take on the Portland Trail Blazers for a Sunday night skirmish that both teams low key need. Portland is trying to jockey for play-in position and the good guys are trying to keep their head above play-in water. There’s plenty more to say about the Cavs with the recent trade, so stay tuned for a fresh Cavs: The Podcast episode.
Tip off is scheduled for 9:00PM Eastern time and will be broadcasted live on Fanduel Sports Network, Go Cavs!
Good win. Important to get it with so much turbulence.
47% from deep as a team.
Tyson 4/4. Merrill 6/8.
Tristan!
100% shooting in the NBA!
40/17/5 for Allen.
I know he isn’t Shaq or Kareem or Joker, but he is too good to get ignored as often as he is. If teams put a,small on him (or Tatum like Boston did), we gotta feed him some.
Part of getting rid of Hunter was that his chucking was taking good shots away from better players.
NAEQWAN TOMLIN DOCTOR J TYPE SCENES
God. Tyson is lethal.
GO AHEAD AND DOUBLE SPIDA DUMMIES…….. TYSON EASY MONEY
TWO SHOT FAKE AND DAGGER SAM I AM
HOW IS THAT A FOUL??????????????
JA going for 40.
At least, if he stays until the bell.
JAYLON TYSON 3!!!! SAM MERRILL DEFENSE!!!!!!
Nance is a total stiff! Get him off the floor.
For as much as the Cavs have dominated this game…
Ball game still on. Down to 10. Plenty of time.
THIS IS A STUPID LINEUP KENNY WHY THE HELL IS CPJ BALL AND NANCE OUT THERE AT THE SAME TIME??????????????
He wants to keep the game interesting so he can bring JA back in to jack up his numbers.
LMFAOOOOOOOO
Mitchell has to generate shots with this group. Or CPJ. Ball cannot.
GIVE AND GO BALL AND BRYANT!
Would be interested in analysis of CPJ’s steals per minute played / comparison with others. Feel like it would be up there.
CPJ is in the 85% in the NBA in steal rate, Lonzo Ball is in the 96%
Cheers!
Yes sir!!!
WHAT HELL WAS THAT CALL BROTHERS????????????
Career high for the Fro!
CPJ STEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CHAMPIONSHIP DEFENSE RIGHT THERE
CPJ BRYANT PICK AND POP PERFECTION
41 POINT 3RD QUARTER, 32 ASSISTS I WAS TOLD DONOVAN COULDN’T RUN POINT GUARD LMFAOOOOOOOO
Game is super fun.
WHAT A BALL FAKE CPJ!!!!!
LONZO THREE TWO WAY SPIDA!!!!!
OMG Hakeem Allen
Tomlin steal to Merrill knock down. All grit. Love it.
Portland does not like green eggs and ham.
Team seems completely heartbroken that Hunter is gone.
Love it!
TOMLIN STEAL, GREAT PASSING MERRILL 3!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can’t wait to see Schroder, Tyson, and Merrill getting up in opponent’s faces and playing tough D.
PLINKO THREE SAM I AM
I am Sam.
JARRETT ALLEN BEAST MODE
James Dean Wade
JAMES DEAN WADE RAGE TIMEOUT TIAGO SPLITTER
Gotta use the left hand there,, Jaylon
Merrill + Mitchell: 0 rebounds. Allen the only guy with more than 2.
19 assists that half.
Assists/TOs:
CPJ 6/0
Tyson 4/2
Mitchell 4/4
Allen 2/0
Up 9.
MONSTER half from the Fro. 25/10 double double with a steal, 2 blocks, and 2 dimes.
defense great except rebounding, offense great except turnovers
Blazers have been even worse than us with TOs, 11 to 10.
Whomever takes care of it probably wins.
Mitchell with 4. Tyson & Bryant with 2 each.
So sloppy repeatedly when up 7. TOs. Not cleaning the glass. Missed FTs. Should be up 10-15.
Agreed. That being said, this Blazers team is fun as hell.
Jarrett Allen two man game just giving the Blazers fits.
god we suck at rebounding when we’re small
JAYLON OTD 3
Oh my goodness CPJ what a block!!
crash the glass and launch 3s constantly is Portland’s entire offense
Good work if you can get it.
Jarrett Allen career high is 33.
I hope he gets 40-50 tonight.
At least get a PR.
Our inability to clean the defensive glass drives me nuts sometimes.
Its a tough ask without Mobley.
Play through Allen till they stop it.
DEAN WADE DEFENSE >>>>>>>>>>>>>.
Fro & Qwan are killing it
Oh man that was a hell of a euro stop move by Tomlin
GREAT DEFENSE BACK LETS GOOO
Another Tony Brothers’ reffed game has already gotten ugly. And, Donovan needs to show up tonight.
They’re on pace for 24 offensive rebounds
Why is Merrill cutting baseline there?
Kenny puts in 4 guards and they immediately get 4 offensive rebounds in one possession
Lol. Should get some Nance minutes
1000%
That’s an offensive foul on Grant
Should have challenged.
That’s a flop
Cheap elbow to Tomlin’s face.
I like how Allen uncorked that three. What the hell!
Allen for fifty tonight! Free burgers for everyone !
JA going for 100 tonight
Allen feasting!
Jafro!!@
Loving the ball movement!
JAYLEN TYSON TO JARRETT ALLEN >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Beautiful pass, Tyson to Allen. Love the look off
They’ve all been good so far!
With all of the injured/DNPs for the Blazers, the Cavs should win this game.
GO CAVS 👍🏀💪
