Live Thread: Cavs vs Bucks
2017-02-27LeBron’s back from his bout with strep throat and will play tonight, according to Coach Lue. Â Kyle Korver, who appeared to injure his knee in the loss to the Bulls, is good to go as well. Â The Cavs will not have Deron Williams tonight. Â In fact, it’s not even been reported yet that they have signed him.
The Bucks, to their credit, have gone 4-2 since Jabari Parker was lost for the season with a torn ACL. Â They’re right on the cusp of the 8-seed, so expect them to thrash about to keep their playoff hopes alive for as long as they can
Good foul RJ! They’ll probably look at it anyway… smh
Cavs just with really really lazy closeouts.
That is awfl D. Delly crosscourt to wide open guy. Shump at fault.
Cavs asleep right now. TT finally tries to wake the up.
I can’t wait for JR to start again.
I don’t think Ky meant that as a pass… fortunately TT threw it down…
Look on the bright side, Shump. When your confidence hits rock bottom, there’s only one place you can go from there.
The Nets?
LOL
EuroLeague?
Shump in his own head right now….
This game feels like a loss.
Cavs not looking for the better shot this half…
Nobody knows who they’re guarding…
Shump can’t wait for February to be over…
In 1000 years when they unearth all of the literature from this age, the scholars will still ask, “How’d the Andersons get tickets to the game?”
Hahahaha
And the Dad will be hailed as a “genius”
I mean…

REALIZE WE HAVE LOVE OUT –LEBRON STILL NOT 100 %—BUT PARKER AND BEASELY OUT FOR THE BUCKS —WOULD HAVE THOUGHT WE WOULD / SHOULD BE UP BY MORE THAN 2 PTS ( ALSO HOME GAME PLUS WE HAD DAY OFF YESTERDAY )
I mean, LBJ probably still has strep… I’ve had strep… I couldn’t get out of bed for three days…
Bucks running 11 players while the Cavs run eight doesn’t bode well.

I like this stat…

I like that.
Bucks really miss Jabari…
10/11 (ASSISTS /T.O’S ) NOT A WINNING RATIO——-IBACKA/ TUCKER COMBINED HALF TOTAL–3 PTS / 4 REB’S

Give me Campy Russell any day.
There are few things less enjoyable than this halftime “show”
Delly. 0-5. 1 assist. -13.
NBA CHAMPION, Matthew Dellavedova, you mean?
Yep
Who cares? I know he’s your favorite player and all, but really, who cares?
Delly Obsession Alert!!

8 man rotation… man it’s going to be good to get DWill2 on Wednesday…
MAN “WHAT THE SHUMP ” IS GOING ON WITH IMAN —ENOUGH ALREADY THE TRADE DEADLINE IS OVER —QUIT WORRYING AND START ” BALLING “—IF WE CAN GET SOME CONSISTENT PLAY FROM HIM IT WOULD BE A HUGE PLUS
Tony Snell: Cavs killer.
I think you meant to type “Brothers”
What is with that?! Even in Chicago he was like pietrus in the playoffs!
Kyrie careless. 11 TOs. Korver warmed up some.
How long until Tony Brothers retires?
He’ll stay around just until the Cavs are back in the lottery…6 more years
Delly forces a Kyrie turnover.
Ohmigod that was beautiful passing for the Korver three.
Shump is afraid to shoot. Korver should have shot that as well.
Great D by RJ on The Alphabet and Delly can’t make Cavs pay…
Good D from RJ there.
Man the turnovers tonight.

D-Will should have controlled that & went up.
Aggression turnover
I can live with that. Nice 11-2 run.
Nice run. Really nice half by Thing 1
Come on TT. James looks good tonight off the sick room.
Delly forgot that TT isn’t on his team anymore…
Clear path!
LeBron with an insane pas from on his back.
LeBron looks like he slowed down his free throw stroke.
Hahaha coach Kidd before the game on the le-scrub lineup: “wow man…that’s…that’s a OLD second unit”
Kyle Lowry had surgery today on wrist. Out 4-6 weeks. Sucks for Raps after getting Serge/Tucker. I think they are 4th seed now. We’ll see. Cory Josepg is quality as a #2 PG. After that…..
I think the raps still end up at least 3, if not 2. Wizards are pretenders, Celtics are what they are…totally reliant on Thomas to deliver big 4th quarters. Not a good formula
Wizards have best backcourt in East.
They won’t beat anyone in a series if Lowry isn’t back pretty close to 100% by the playoffs…..hope he is….
Joseph not having a good year though. If I’m them. I’m pursuing jennings.
Man…Giannis is jacked. He has every chance to be the next best player in the east as Lebron slows down
Huh tnt is blacked out. When did that start?
2nd time this year for me….(Columbus)
How bad are the tnt guys tonight?
Just tuned in to see on a stream….pretty bad. As one would expect, you would hardly know there’s a game on…
Nice cut and layup by Channing…
Let’s attack the rack & get some FTs. Hopefully the free ones get Frye going.
Was just thinking that. Free throws cure what ails you!
Frye is off tonight from deep. We play no D.
Cavs d is nonexistent.
Bad rotations…
Rotations? What are those?
That is the thing DWill can do…
https://twitter.com/NBAcom/status/836379500527161344
When we score easy early, we don’t play D & get careless.
Hope beasley is OK.
Considering he’s their whole offense this game aside from Monroe…
I’m gonna go out on a limb and say he’s in bad shape.
He had to be assisted to the locker room…
Freak injury, but doesn’t look great…
Terrible D by LeBron on that Vaughn three.
10 foot cushion…
Time for some separation.
Dude…brothers is a beast this game. Gonna be tough to defend him
He’s always the best guy on the court…
I think teams are figuring out when LBJ is in “facilitator mode” gotta switch it up sometimes Bron…
On the plus side, d-will#1 and RJ have begun to be interchangeable…in a good way.
When he stands 40 feet from the basket and doesn’t cut after passing?
Obvious carry by beasley uncalled…
These are not fouls Tony…
Beasley VS Williams is an interesting matchup. Two tweeners who didn’t live up to expectations. It produced expected results on both ends.
Tony Brothers in effect…
Like that paint seal by Williams. He really runs the floor well. And clearly moves without the ball well, similar to RJ.
WOW “ENCHILADA TOMAHAWK “
