Playoff Live Thread: Cavs @ Raptors (Game 3)
2026-04-23Welcome to Evanto, Cavs fans. I’m going all in on this name with the hope that Evan can make this town his own the way the King did. The wine and gold head in North in an effort to take a commanding 3-0 lead. We’ll see if their new found grit and shooting travels, if Jaylon Tyson Gets off the schneid (and off the refs’ shit list), if Allen can give em 24 good minutes, and if the Cavs can survive Kenny’s Umlaut led shrimp minutes. Hope our guys shut up our neighbors to the north for a night. Go Cavs.


Mobley with the brick.
ZERO DEFENSIVE EFFORT PLAY SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO PLAY DEFENSE COWARD
Defense has been pitiful.
We’re morphing into last year’s playoff Cavs.
With Quickley likely to return soon, Cavs would want to win this one.
Harden aging in dog years this game.
Harden with a huge bucket.
Not great Bob.
Guess we’ll find out what the Cavs are made of.
Spida’s decision making this game has been questionable.
That was shocking defence.
GARBAGE DEFENSE WHERE THOMAS BRYANT???????????????
Cavs forgetting that battle killed em in a game in the regular season
PLAY SOME DAMN DEFENSE SPIDA THAT WAS ON YOU!
Mitchell died on that screen
JAYLON TYSON HAS ARRIVED QUIT PLAYING HIM WITH HARDEN KA AND LET HIM COOK
At least Schröder is on the bench
LETS GOOOOOOOO
Mobley has to pick up Poetle there.
SAM!!!!
JAYLON TYSON MAKING PLAYS
Cavs gotta come out strong to start the fourth, shut the crowd up.
Allen doesn’t have a lot of lift mm
Hawks pull it off again over Knicks!
CJ has been amazing.
A little more patience and care with the ball, Cavs will win. Gotta stop the TOs though.
Attaway Dean.
Oof Sam. Shake it off.
CJ just put the Hawks up one with 13 seconds left.
Offensive foul! Wade gets no calls.
Scottie is allowed to slam in to you. If you don’t dive out of the way it’s a foul, I guess.
PLAY THOMAS BRYANT YOU COWARD WTF AND TYSON AND ELLIS!!!!!
Harden gotta stop being a turnover machine.
I think it’s a sweep…….
Too cute with the ball, paid the price.
Maximus Strusimus!
Ughhh. Bad play Strus.
Block of the season
And that ref has no excuse. Front row seat.
Dammit Dean just shoot it brother.
Exactly
Holy shit Strus is on a heater
Let’s hope Max is catching fire.
Hell yes!

Tyson’s brother got drafted right when he made the great pass.
That’s so cool!
Great patience from Tyson finding Mobley on that play under the hoop.
The opposite of Dennis who rushes everything.
Tyson a catalyst
Tyson with the athletic save!
Tyson miss but I like his confidence there.
Great find for Mobley there.
Keon with a rough stretch
Jaylon!

Nice run.
The opportunities are there after the first wave of d.
Attaway Jaylon!
The noises the crowd make in response to Harden is very telling.
Can’t rely on role players bombing 3s to get back in it when they haven’t hit shots all series.
Ball don’t lie
Schröder out. TY Jesus.
Yeah. I haven’t been as down on him but that was a pretty brutal stretch.
9 TOs in the first. Putrid.
Why TF would Tyson not shoot that?!? Passing to Shröder for the 3….
No confidence rn.
Tyson CANNOT pass up a shot there to give the ball to the Umlaut.
Mobley gotta play bigger.
Cavs shooting the bonus. Should be pounding paint.
Yep. Hope KA is transmitting this RN.
They can’t get close to the basket rn
Dennis meeds to sit. On pace for 30 TOs.
Schröder is absolutely useless on offense
Schröder in, immediate turnover cause he didn’t wait for the screener to set.
Raps overplaying so much is part of the offensive rebounds
Don’t give Wade too long to think about it.
Great offensive rebounding for a bucket there
Ball clearly hit the basleine
Did the raps challenge?
Other than some dumb three jacks in the bonus, Cavs doing well racking up fouls.
Hawks were up 18 late 2nd, Knicks got it under 10 at half.
The grift is the gift. Go James!
Here’s to making it 13 straight playoff ‘W’s’ versus the raptors
