Live Thread: Cavs vs. Grizzlies
2019-02-23
Well, still no Tristan Thompson, who has been ruled out for tonight’s game, but the rest of the squad (sans JR) is at full strength. They’re taking on very different Grizzlies team than the one that existed before the trade deadline. With Jaren Jackson Jr. out indefinitely, the Grizz are relying on a rotation of Mike Conley, Justin Holiday, Avery Bradley, Bruno Cabloclo, and our old pal Jonas Valanciunas. Also taking us on a walk down amnesia lane will be C.J. Miles, Chandler Parsons, and Joakim Noah. Let’s party like it’s 2015.
This could be a scheduling win for the Cavs as they took on the Clips last night before traveling to the North Coast. Still with a stable full of young guys like Ivan Raab and Delon Wright to go along with their wiley vets, Cleveland should’t take the 23-37 Grizz lightly. It should be a fun matchup. Let’s hope the young guys keep improving and that Kevin Love starts playing like Kevin Love. Go Cavs!
That was Delly’s fail. Got a wait for the screen.
Cavs making Noah look not washed…
MEMO—KLOVE KNOWS HOW TO PLAY THIS GAME——–SORRY PLAYOFF TEAMS—TRADE DEADLINE IS OVER !!!
Lovely 3. Nice tap ahead be Delly to YB for soft slam! Up 5.
All you need is Love.
Love a good player making a big difference, who would have thought…
Touch pass delly TO Sexton!!!!!! Rage timeout!
Ball movement to love for three!!!!!
Beautiful Delly feed for the Love dunk…
Delly to love on the roll!!!
KLOVE slam!
Conley flopped. Crap call
On replay good call
Zizic pretty big game…
Yeah. We need a big body vs JV & Noah. Grizz have 2 legit Cs. LNJ/Love/Chriss get outmuscled/or are just too small.
Nice hustle Zizic
Clarkson is garbage tonight. Taking so. Many dumb shots.
That was a charge!
Love post spin move!!!
Fake and flail
Terrible post entry pass from JC. Awful.
A long overdue
Shot that one. Then a TD TO. Then a Delly pick and trey!
Lakers down 15 less than 10 remaining, no AD…woof…
D3LLY!
Delly steal and delly3!!!!
PELS UP ON LAKERS BY 16 HEDED INTO 4TH QTR——–HERE COMES ” ACTIVATED -LEBRON ” —-WHAT THE NBA WANTS TO SEE
KLOVE dialed in from deep
Love needs to shoot that vs CJ.
20-3 rum for Grizz to end the 3rd.
LNJ WITH A “UN -NANCE ” LIKE GAME
Zizic can’t get back in the game soon enough.
JUMPIN BACK ON THE “ZION TANK WAGON——-UGLY LAST 5-6 MIN’S / BALL —PLAYERS WEREN’T MOVIN—-MAKING FRIGGIN NOAH LOOK LIKE ” BULLS ” ALL STAR NOAH
Lame foul call on Nwaba, that was a good play…
Clankson
Cavs imploding…
Cj “dadbod” miles.
Wanted the Cavs to sign cablaclo
Chris is not good this game.
Less 3s. More attacking the rack.
Noah is killing us.
Chriss is just fundamentally poor in his play. Makes a lot of silly/dumb plays. Not optimistic on him, but the talent is worth a look.
If Love does not play in the 4th, we lose.
Eh. Henson does everything Chriss does, without the dumbness
Clarkson and Sexton hijacking the offense. Just ruj the damned offense.
Way too aggressive there Chris
Chris nice pump fake and drive.
Chriss leaves his feet waaaay too early
Good test for Cavs… Grizzlies aren’t quitting
Wow k love playing amazing defense and knocking down shots! Sexton with a big 3!
GOOD TO SEE ALL CAVS PLAYERS –PLAYING WITHIN THE GAME / IN THE FLOW/ NOT FORCING
Love is all you need.
LOVE IS IN THE AIR !!!
Memo: Kevin Love is still good at basketball.
Knight orchestrating offense k love 3 again!!!
Cedi rushed that 3…. Pump fake and drive that king
K Love for three!!!
Great pass cedi Zizic good catch!
Sweet would be dime from Cedi…
Zizic midrange!!!
Gonna miss the Longo halftime interviews…
What have I missed??
Just the usual Longo…hope he’s elsewhere next season…
I never liked Jersey Shore
Glad Zizic finally getting consistent minutes…. He’s developing the more he plays.
His development makes TT more expendable/tadeable next year.
Though I like having two traditional/banger BIG C’s on the team. Henson is a shot blocker but thin. Ditto LNJ. Love & Chriss are 4/5s.
Cavs with decent defense first quarter, bad defense second quarter.
RJ Barrett dominating tonight on offense. He is going to be good.
Yep. Dukies up 6 with 1.5 minutes left.
Barrett 30/5/7 on 14-20 and 2-5 from deep.
Reddish: 5/6/3 on 2-11 and 1-8 from 3.
Zion clear #1. Then Morant/Barrett. Then a gap.
At half, Lakers down 12 in NO as the Pels play without AD. Julius Randle ballin’.
Suns down 4 in the ATL at half.
Nice to see other players going Wiggins other than Wiggins to Cavs…
69 for Pels at helf without AD…woof…
Aside from the stauskus run and then the Cavs falling asleep to end the quarter, a nice half.
I’m ready for Brandon knight to go screw someone elsecs offense up hubting for points.
When delly and cedi get more touches we are so much better
Crappy finish to the quarter after getting it back to 13.
Love whining about a call & not getting back as Grizz get two O-boards AFTER he cherry picked the prior trip ticked me off.
Dang, Sexton should’ve finished that, worked hard to get open.
Not a bad half tho!!!
Midrange garbage from collin
Cavs looked kind of lazy on those O boards by Grizz…
Very. KLOVE looks gassed.
Wow… Kevin screwed up big time on that layup
Shoulda passed.
Turns out the hospital we are spending time at has pretty good wifi – have a few moments to check out Cavs – winning streak!?!? Go Cavs!!
You’re the commentariat mvp!
Aw shucks :) . I’d better lift my game!
Knight rhythm jumper!!!
Cedi Korver
Nice pass knight nice rim run Zizic!!!
