Live Thread: Cavs @ Kings
2026-02-07Good evening CtB!
The Cavs have traversed to the NoCal Central Valley to take on the Stockton Kings AKA the haplessly tanking Sacramento Kings. This is a big night for the good guys, as James “Uno” Harden makes his Cavalier debut. Koby Altman made the most consequential move of the insane NBA Slop Season, will his gamble pay off? One thing you cannot fault him for is being aggressive in a wide open Eastern Conference. Let’s we what we got…
TIp off is scheduled for 10:00PM Eastern time and will be broadcasted live on Fanduel Sports Network, Go Cavs!
Craig got away with a shove into Russ’s back there. Whew.
Harden does not have a rebound & hasn’t shot a FT.
CPJ HAS BEEN OUR WORST BENCH PLAYER YET GETS THE MOST MINUTES YOU’RE BLIND KENNY
I don’t know what game he’s watching
CPJ has been fine. +3.
Horrid FT shooter, though.
Sadly, it’s going to take Spida hero ball to get the Cavs out of this.
Hard with these all you can eat shrimp lineups.
Yuuup.
Sam is 0-5 and Tyson 2-7?
They’re also playing up a position.
Good Lord. The Cavs have gotten hammered and not gotten calls for a hell of a lot more than that.
Refs have been a headwind tonight
dumb challenge
like really really dumb.
Yeah. Its not great.
41 to a Kings team missing Sabonis, LaVine, Hunter, & Murray. Though maybe Hunter helps them being out.
Spud r with the diabolo
WHERES THE FOUL??????????????????????????
Winning time now. We’ll see whom KA runs out there.
Just to show how janky +/- is, Allen has the worst +/- on the team.
Thomas Bryant just balling this road trip
NAEQWAN HUSTLE BRYANT FINISH ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION KENNY??????
LOOK AT THAT WE PLAY A REAL 4 AND WE COME BACK SHOCKING
Allen is our real star. Great game.
Harden off the floor. Thank God.
Merrill has been bad too. And Donovan until 2 minutes ago.
Missing Mobley’s D badly.
and Wade
`I’m all for being patient with adjustment periods, but Cavs should be up by 15-20 RN. Kenny, time to play players who want the defensive assignments.
The bench will have to win it.
Yup.
NAEQWAN TOMLIN HAS PLAYED 9 MINUTES YOU DUMBASS!!!!!!! +13!!!!!!!!!
Color me unimpressed with the bearded ham.
Spida,waking up.
Woof.
WE HAVE ZERO REBOUNDING KENNY DO EVER DO YOUR JOB???????????????
MAKE DEFENSIVE SUBSTITUTION KENNY ARE YOU BLIND??????????????????
This is a game we will mess around & lose. Or the bench will have to win. Starters cannot defend.
Jarret Allen 40 burger incoming
Play some damn defense.
That was bumpy.
Feeling real good about Ellis..As a 3 & D guy, his adjustment is the easiest.
Tomlin or Ellis should start the 2nd for Sam.
Plug n’ play for sure.
Spida, Harden, & Merrill have been crap.
Everyone else good. Allen/Bryant fantastic.
Kenny’s so damn stubborn this garbage
shot clock violation, that’s not great.
Not an especially good half from Merrill.
he should be the bench offense
Agreed.
I don’t like Harden Mitchell & Merrill on the court at the same time. Our 3 poorest defenders at the same time.
Or harden or Mitchell.
Allen just been on an absolute tear. So glad they didn’t trade him.
Harden with a lot of nice hockey assists.
And not much else.
LMFAOOOOOO EVER HARDEN PICK AND ROLL IS MONEY
Filthy banker, Tyson
Shitty move by Derozan.
LOSER AND A BUM
Affirmative.
WTF WHERE’S THE FLAGRANT?/????????
ALLEN FEASTING NOW WE GOT MISMATCH POST UPS!
Ellis was such a steal
Harden, Allen, & CPJ in for Mitchell, Bryant, & Tomlin.
Well, the Schröder, Mitchell, Ellis, Tomlin, Bryant has restored order, but mostly the non-Spida 4.
Up 7.
Keon!
DEFENSE GANG BRING US ALL THE WAY BACK!!
Schroeder great rim pressure.
He ain’t passive.
Ellis killing it.
Ellis with serious defensive vision.
Lol. Ellis getting cheers. I love kings fans.
They loved him, expected to lose him. Disappointed to not get much back for him. Kinda feel for them.
Tomorrow n so good on the break
Spida a bit off tonight. Guess it’s been a cray-cray few days in the ballclub.
Bryant & Allen keeping us in it.
Bryant is lights out RN.
Bailing them out.
Cavs playing three 6-2 dudes and 🤔 ng why they can’t rebound
The roster is skewed towards smalls and we are down two bigs.
Nance should be playing.
But KA is trying to breed familiarity between the rotation guys, I would guess.
Rebounds, lads. Rebounds!
Schröder is the opposite of Harden.
CPJ & Tomlin & Bryant in before the Kings guys.
Nice finish, Tomlin.
So far it’s James harden: pace killer.
That Clifford is a bouncy lad, isn’t he?
yeah some draft perverts liked him
🤣
JA with some nice passing
HARDEN > JA > TYSON TOO EASY
Harden is a pick and roll master, Tyson’s gonna feast too
offense dog shit due to Harden deferring and Spida forcing cuz no one’s being aggressive. Defense zero rebounding and soft. only thing that’s gone right is JH/JA PnR
There are gonna be bumps.
Tomlin should be starting. Too small & soft on D with Harden, Mitchell, & Merrill.
WHERES THE FOUL THAT’S GOOD DEFENSE???? LEAGUE IS SOFT
Jarrett Allen gonna feast with Harden,
100%
don’t like this lineup, too small and one good perimeter defender. Should’ve started Tomlin or Nance, neither of them need any usage.
Yep. And you are filling in for Wade.
What’s up with Jimmy Dean?
ankle, not serious
Kings will be eithout Sabonis, LaVine, Murray, and Hunter. Hunter got poked in the eye last game.
Wade is doubtful. Mobley & Strus out.
