Live Thread: Cavaliers @ Wizards
2021-04-25Good evening CtB!!!
Tonight, we have the shorthanded Cavs taking on the blazing hot Wizards, who’ve won nine out of their last 10 games. Collin Sexton is out tonight with a concussion from a collision with Bismack Biyombo Friday night in Charlotte. Appropriately, the Cavs are a decently big underdog tonight, with the Wizards having an overwhelming advantage on the perimeter with Russell Westbrook and Bradley Beal. Consider it a win if the Cavs can keep it close… so sit back and relax and see if the kids can show some growth, GO CAVS!!!
WHAT A PASS LARRY!!!! LARRY AND GARLAND DROPPING DIMES EVERYWHERE!!!!
This team is generally a whole lot more watchable with DG with high usage rather than Sexton…
had to laugh seeing all the Cavs twitter comments about “Sexton out? stealth tank not watching” LMFAOOOOOOO
I was thinking to myself, “good we’re actually trying to win” LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOO
Amen.
And I rag Sexton as much as anyone, but….
1) The Wiz stink on D
2) Cedi does not shoot like this often
true, but Cedi does move the ball a lot better than Sexton, and Allen has clearly benefited.
WHAT A FINISH DG!!!!!!!!! THAT WAS CLUTCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Call of the year there “Allen, leaving a wake of utter panic behind”
ALLEN IS DOMINATING THE GAME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cavs offense dominating the game, but turnovers are keeping the Wizards in the game.
was about to say “this is when Austin Carr usually starts talking about the Cavs need to build a 10 or 12 point cushion going into the fourth” oh well…
????? Okoro and Allen were both fouled, no call.
how does Smith block Okoro? nice take by him on the previous possession anyway
EXACTLY!!!!! pretty sure Smith got him on the arm… would like to see a replay to confirm.
OKORO DRIVE AND FINISH!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn it Kev. Stop turning it over.
he ran a lot on that possession, is probably a little gassed out there
terrible passing Love, nice hustle on the rebound though.
GREAT DEFENSE CAVS!!!!!!!!!! 19/10 for ALLEN!!!!!!!!!! 22 minutes!
Allen so good.
Allen is everywhere, love it!!
Woof Delly.
ALLEN IS ALL OVER THE COURT!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
terrible shot Delly, run offense thru Love!!!
too easy for Beal, Okoro afraid to challenge the shot.
DELLY FLOB TO ALLEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
KLOVE money!
LOVE FROM WAY DOWNTOWN BALL FAKE!!!!!!!!!!!
Okoro recovers well after little missteps, always seems cool
Love on Bertans is a mismatch, need Wade’s speed on defense.
We’re doing a lot right this quarter.
ALLEN BLOCK!!!!!!! DG WHAT A PASS!!!
Following this one from NYC, on espn.com, no radio or TV.
Heck yeah Philip!!! they’re hanging in!!!
Shoot neto out of the game, dg!
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOO
Garland wasn’t even fussed, that was a laser threeball!
DG WHAT FROM WAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY DOWNTOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!
DG is a star in the making…
should’ve been and 1 DG got fouled.
poor recognition DG, go get the ball get the ball to Love in the post on the mismatch!!!!!!!
WHAT A PASS DG!!!!! ALLEN SLAM!!!!!
DG STEPBACK FOR THREEEEEE!!!!!!!!
DG completely fell asleep on defense, c’mon man!
Man, RWB getting away with a lot of shoves on Okoro…
OKORO STRONG TAKE!

Realky liked lamar stevens that half. Kev gotta get mad.
Beal plus Wizards bench is just clobbering the Cavs… gonna need the whole bench to step up.
Solid first half eh? Lamar sighting!
DG has been sloppy with the ball, and the Cavs bench is getting outscored 31-11, somehow we’re in it because of DG, Allen, and Cedi.
Wade with only 5 minutes???? C’mon JB, and he was +4… JB and Scotty Brooks a real battle of wits LMFAO
Allen was great that half defensively.
love the physicality and aggression by the Cavs in this quarter, would be nice if a few more dunks/shots would fall but they’re definitely showing up
WOW GREAT HUSTLE HART AND DG TO PREVENT THE SCORE!!!
Hartenstein was in at the end? thought that was Wade
Darius and Wade, just checked — was nice to see Darius not hang his head after getting picked
oh my bad, nice!!!
??????? where’s the foul??????????
DC fans are the worst!!!!
about time they called a foul at the rim.
Jb trying to hel out my fantasy team with the tech.
Been waiting for that JB tech!! (stealth tank? probably not in this case)
he must have used a curse word, forsooth!
JB getting a tech good job in a 1 point game SMH
Beal is sooo good in tight spots.
WOW, GOTTA FINISH GUYS!!!
DG FROM WAY DOWNTOWN!!!
Ten days off helps Cedi’s o.
fresh legs baby!!!
CEDI JAM
CEDI COAST TO COAST STEAL AND FINISH!!!!!!!!!!
dammit, Cedi late on the rotation
Lopez working aloen.
yup, distinct weight/size advantage
according to google, giving up basically 40 lbs… and I’m not sure I trust Allen’s weight (243)
ALLEN HUSTLE!!!!!!!!
Keep them beal free throws comin.
like the challenging drives to the basket, nothing easy for Wiz in second quarter
Stevens crazy athletic play.
holy athletic Stevens, agree CLF where’s the foul
WOW, Stevens hit his head on the backboard????!!!
WOW, that wasn’t a foul… Stevens didn’t touch him!!!! Matthews just blew the layup!
A little bit of body. Stevns aint gonna get that call as a rookie free agent.
You can almost see DG improving by the week, especially games when he’s not on the court a ton with Sexton and can be more ball dominant. Safe to say the Cavs made a good pick in that draft.
