Live Thread: Cavs at Pistons
2016-01-29
A chance for the Wine and Gold to get back at the Pistons for a loss waaaay back in November (seems like eons ago).
Tonight could be a reminder of why Timofey Mozgov makes sense for a playoff run. Who else is going to slow down Andre Drummond?
Will Ty Lue go to “Bang a Dummond”?
Let’s talk about it!
Both Kyrie and KLove are playing with great confidence today let’s hope they show up again tomorrow.
JR should get bonus pts for those shots
JR Swish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The tougher the shot, the swishier the JR.
And now Bron can’t buy a throwdown… He really wants that 26K…
JR DEEP NOT IN THE Q
Irving showing some grit good for him. Don’t talk trade about me….
Game starting to slip from Detroit. Hopefully Lebron gets a big rest again
What got into Kyrie? Taking a charge? Is the world ending?
Pretty sure he realized LeBron is old and Kevin Love got snubbed. Kyrie didn’t get snubbed even though he was MVP of that exhibition game.
Kyrie having a good game!! Finally!!
He wanted 3 pts instead of 2
KLove three makes it less embarrassing…
KLOVE has his back!!!!!
I hope he has his back and shoulder in the finals… lol
That’s gonna get replayed about a million times… might break the internet… good job Bron…
Vine it please!!!!!!!!!
It;s going to destroy Vine once and for all…
Shaqtin’!!!!!!!!!!!
They have a lot that can get that mid range shot
TT perfect at the FT line is awesome
Don’t look now but Kyrie leads all in +/-
It’s apart of AC’s master plan
Double double for TT….
I wonder how often Drummond has to tell Morris to chill out and not get a tech.
Bring back Perkins!!!!!!
Drummond brought his tent into the lane that time… and his sleeping bag…
If the referee not gon’ do it. YOU GON’ DO IT. -austin carr
I thought it was the other Morris brother who got into it with Bron?
Remember in the first half when the ball wasn’t sticking?
Morris is a little girl!
this is one of those wear them down games.
Good passing… JR just missed it…
He was due for a stinker. Glad its a game where the rest of the guys have picked up their O
That shot I thought Kyrie should have taken
Props to LeBron — good hustle chasing down the ball AND finds Love nicely for the three.
Big Time three from KLove!
No perimeter defending anymore?
LBJ one point away from 26K…
J.R. running through a pick is like a kick return in the NFL… there’s always a penalty…
Big Three kinda night… 59 of Cavs 73 points from LBJ, KI and KLove…
I’m legitimately confused watching the Cavs. Are we instilling a culture of when you’re up 15+, you walk the ball up the floor? That might be the key to running vs pacing.
Spurs tomorrow
…………..
tony parker #2007
Keep it clean, Wes…
I have a weird perspective, too. I’m from the school that considers Tony Parker just as big of a threat as Dre’ Mon Green. I’m pretty sure I thought Tim Duncan would **** on us back then. Maybe Kyrie can be our Tony Parker.
JR only hits shots that are defended
Fast break double fail…
Huh?!?!?! How was that not a charge?
How was that NOT a foul on the Kyrie layup? Jeez….
Why didn’t Kyrie just… okay… JR SWISH!
Jus like DAT…JR
JR gets on the board!
Trade machine approved a TT and Love trade for D. Favors and G. Haywood. Any takers?
I don’t really see the point?
Killer small ball line up. Favors at 5, ‘Bron at 4 Haywwod at 3…
I don’t think it moves the needle. Plus I think Love is the best player in that deal. So no thanks.
Plus that’s a lot of rebounding to give up.
That’s like incredibly lopsided salary wise
TT is the only thing keeping Toronto from being a finals contender?
I wonder if Fred and Austin ever have locker room issues?
I have heard that AC isn’t very happy with his contract or his minutes…
Only when Jeff Phelps comes charging in there.

Why are TT and ‘Bron so pissed when K Love just dropped 19 in the first half?
is something burning in the palace?
Tire fire? Or maybe Ron Jeremy finally burst into flames?
Smoke coming out of Lebron’s ears I think. He’s is P.O. ‘d
I think it actually might be the smoke machine for the Temptations halftime show… Gotta hand it to Pistons, that’s a pretty cool halftime show…
So when LeBron is lazy on D it’s ok, but when someone else messes up, leader’s gotta lead! /s
Do as I scream… not as I loaf…
It’s been that way for a long time. But yeah…..
Yea, i don’t even have the willingness to complain about Lebron’s idiocy anymore.
What’s with the defense tonight? I don’t know enough about basketball that I can tell.
They’re hustling and bringing good pressure… but have missed a couple of rotations and had a couple of backside breakdowns… Plus Drummond is getting some good bounces near the hoop…
Yeah they are chasing guys off the line and rotating pretty well. Detroit starters are no joke.
Drummond playing well on the block. TT electing not to foul.
Backside rotations are too slow. At least four Detroit baskets including KCP’s four point play as a result.
Delly should’ve pressured Jackson earlier.
What the hell is that smoke in the arena?
Well… it is Detroit…
That go so ugly. Is this the prosperous winning Grant, I mean Griffin, was talking about? Why was LeBron yelling at TT while Kyrie was consoling TT? Either LeBron is the man and TT is soft af or Kyrie hates this.
Warriors bandwagon still has space for you…..
Your comment is confusing…
I’m just confused why everyone is mad while Kevin Love just dropped 19 in a half on the same day he got snubbed from the all-star game.
I think they were just mad at that last easy basket by Jackson…
Reggie Jackson killed it on my fantasy team least year
The palace is a weird place to watch a game. Nonstop noise pumped in, crowd cheers at odd times. Not good times! Although they do have a live funk band in the upper deck that is pretty decent.
Wait… are you there at the game?
Not this time. Took the whole family to the first game but I am a jinx. I have been at red right 88, the drive and the shot. Oh, and the fist game after Art announced he was moving the Browns. I thought it was best to stay away – for Tyronn’s sake.
Wow… that’s more than me… I was only at red right 88, the drive and the shot…
LBJ screaming at TT for that last Jackson layup…
I’m waiting for TT or someone else to say to Lebron “F- YOU, you start playing D and I will too.”
LeBron yelling at TT!
Just a bit outside Jackson!!!!!!
What the hell was that Reggie Jackson shot?
2 for 1. It worked as they got it back and scored.
Yeah, except they had ZERO chance to score on the front end… thus negating the point of two for one…
Eh, he had about the same shot as Lebron hitting a pull up 3, so yea, close to zero.
C’mon taximike… that was a total heave…
Ty Lue might have a Napoleon complex… That’s a super high chair…
Why are Fred and AC laughing? cavs had Delly jumping on people as well
That video of Noel jumping on Drummonds back is the best. And a reason to not change the rule. Imagine Shaq jumping on Isiah Thomas’s back?
I don’t want to work… I just wanna bang on the Drummond all day…
Hack-an-EG-viewing-pleasure!!!!!
Bang the Drummond slowly…
60 points with 2:30 still to go in half… pretty good…
Breakdown on the weakside D…
LeBron just got blocked by a Rich Paul client.
Wow… that was embarrassing…
KLOVE!!! With no hesitation!
this is important.
how do you do this?? lol is there an app for that? i love cavs the blog haha i just wish i could keep up with this forum or w/e
KLOVE killing it!!!!
QB Love sneaks out into a deep route.
I like that Lebron is not having to exert much energy and the Cavs up 10+ early.
KLove got to be the receiver for once…
Really like how aggressively the Cavs are pushing the ball…
Is Drummond the best Center outside of Boogie in the league?
I think he has to be. If he could protect the rim a little better and ever get close to 60% from the line I’d take him over Boogie merely for his motor and lack of issues.
