Live Thread: Nuggets @ Cavs
2022-03-18Good evening CtB!
It’s Friday night and NBA fans are in for a treat as the Cavs take on the Denver Nuggets on the shores of Lake Erie in a battle of current sixth seeds in the playoffs. The Nuggets are an incredible NBA story this season, with Nikola Jokić putting together another MVP caliber season in spite of missing his two running mates in Michael Porter Jr. and Jamal Murray.
News, Notes, and Stats
The Cavs will still be missing Jarrett Allen, Dean Wade, Rajon Rondo, and of course Collin Sexton. So, the Cavs will have to really dig deep on the defensive end if they want to pull this one out. Denver comes into the game as easily a top 10 offense in the NBA, and they’re one of the best passing teams in the NBA. They are prone to turnovers so the Cavs will have to look to disrupt their passing rhythm and run on turnovers.
Tip off is scheduled for 7:30PM ET and will be broadcasted live on Bally Sports Ohio/Great Lakes, Go Cavs!
That one ref shrugged his shoulders.
Wooohhhh!!
Hell of an effort from lauri just to hit iron
I have no confidence they won’t reverse this
It’s getting reversed…no doubt…
I felt the same way.. feel cavs always get the short end of the stick
LETS GOOOOOOOOOO ABOUT TIME!!!!! MAKEUP CALL
Wow what a makeup call
These reviews are my wife’s personal nightmare
They’re what makes the NBA great. We need more reviews, a LOT more.
I’m so tired of the zebras!
Scott “Money on the Game” Foster…
WHAT THE FUCK THATS NOT A FOUL! SCREW YOU SCOTT FOSTER
BULLSHIT
KEVIN LOVE HUGE REBOUND!
you think the league will notice in their 2 min report how many times the Cavs get screwed?
Gotta play through it. DEFENSE
Gary Trent Hitting 2 3 pointers back to back.. now Toronto up with 26 seconds left.
Forget it, Sweetchi, it’s Lakertown…
Finally JB makes a challenge! JFC.
Don’t see how that is a foul on Lauri at all
JB challenged…incredible. Doubt they overturn it, though. It’s Scott Freaking Foster, and he never made a bad call…
Yeah…totally unsurprised…
Good challenge !!!
F’ing refs allowing Jokic to play like an OLineman
JB challenged!
WTF IS THAT SHIT
The MVP getting star calls.
KEVIN LOVE NBA CHAMPION FOR THE LEAD!!!!!!!!
Man thats a tough call on Love there
I love how jb calls another time out instead of using a challenge
He likes to save his challenge for never
really would be nice to get a win with this comeback instead of the same results as last game
Totally agree.. that’s why I try not to get too excited at this moment… cause we need to learn how to close games when they matter against good teams.
Interesting that JB is playing Laurie and Love in crunch time back to back games.
Bad foul call
HORSE SHIT FOUL CALL
Trash…
WTF JB??????????
DARIUS GARLAND FOR THE LEAD!!!!!!!!
DG is boss…
Dg!!!
HOLY SHIT LAURI MARKKENEN!!!
Nate Smith: Kev is butt this stretch. /r/agedlikemilk =)

Levert finally hits!
NBA CHAMPION KEVIN LOVE LEADING THE CHARGE!

LOVE IS IN THE AIR LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Aaron Gordon bitching to the ref during commercial. Still pissed .about goaltending
Had hoped for better during the mid-March stretch, but undermanned against good teams prepping for playoffs is a big ask.
Good god, put Brown in if Boogie is going to be Godzilla on the boards…
36-10 Denver bench outscoring ours.
Cannot remember our last good bench game ?
lol last game against the 76rs 2 days ago
Damn I’m getting old, maybe just spoiled from early in the season when the bench was carrying us
LMFAOOOOOO yeah, LOVE YOU RUBIO!!!
GET THE DAMN REBOUND
That’s where we miss Allen.
EUROSTEPPING DG! LETS GOOO
NICE FINISH MOBLEY!
Kev is butt this stretch
GREAT DEFENSE LETS GOOOOOOOO
Cavs within single digits, need one more defensive quarter, 3rd quarter first time they played defense all night.
Why no Cedi? We have like max 1 shooter on the floor at a time
Levert stinking up the joint
He’s been slipping a lot even he drives and tries to pivot. Last time he almost lost the ball, this time he did.
yeah, i noticed that too, those shoes are trash.
Lamar has completely forgotten how to shoot
As have Goodwin and levert
keep it to single digits to end the quarter and we’ve got a small chance.
STEVENS PICK SIX!!!!!! RAGE TIMEOUT!
Lamar!!!
GREAT DRIVE AND KICK LOVE! LAURI FOR THREE! BIG BASKET!
Badloss
WOW, Cavs getting screwed by refs, another day ending in Y
That offensive call was trash
Another superstar call for joker
Lauri was the best Cav tonight and now he cold
GREAT DEFENSE ICE! way to make a play
Stevens was wide open for three, just make the pass DG or Mobley
WHERES THE FOUL???????????????
CARIS FADEAWAY!
LAURI DEFENSE!!!!!!!! LAURI COAST TO COAST AND PASS!
