Live Thread: Cavs @ Magic
2025-02-25Good evening CtB!
The Cavs are in the national spotlight yet again as they take on Eastern Conference rival Orlando Magic in primetime at Disneyworld. For the Cavs, they’re looking to continue to build their better rebounding habits, which just won them the game against the 2nd best rebounding team in the NBA against the Memphis Grizzlies. They’re facing yet again another physical, long, athletic team that is a superior rebounding team to the good guys. Can the Cavs rise to yet another challenge? Stay tuned…
Tip off is scheduled for 7:30PM Eastern time and will broadcasted live nationally on TNT, Go Cavs!
SOME VERY GOOD POINTS TOM —- NOT SURE HOW MUCH “ WIGGLE “ ROOM KA HAS / CAN CREATE ——WOULD HOPE TO THINK THE LOYALTY-SUPPORT CAVS GAVE HIM ALL LAST SEASON WHEN HE WAS HURT AND ALSO BRINGING IN HIS BEST FRIEND DRE MIGHT INFLUENCE HIM TO WORK WITH THE CAVS —- BUT MONEY/ AGENTS PROBABLY OUTWEIGHS LOYALTY/ FRIENDSHIP—— ALSO HIS PERFORMANCE IN THE PLAYOFFS COULD BE A HUGE FACTOR—— STAY TUNED—- JUST GOING TO ENJOY EACH CAVS GAME……….. “ MORE BEER 🍺 PLEASE “ TASTES BETTER THIS YEAR AND MORE BEING CONSUMED 👍🍺🏀
NBA standings have cavs as clinching playoffs? Hadn’t heard that anywhere but if true, that’s ridiculous
If the Cavs lose out, they will be 48 – 34, .5854, which would put them in fourth place right now. the only way they would not make the PO’s would be if the current 4 – 8 teams ALL win enough get to 48 wins, and get lucky with tie breakers.
the current #8 team, the Hawks, are 27 – 31 and thus would have to go 21 – 3 to tie the Cavs. But the Hawks play some of the current 4,5,6,7 teams, and they can’t all win out, so the Cavs are in.
Yes, they officially clinched last night… crazy!!!
I JUST THINK KA / CAVS SOMEHOW FIGURE IT OUT HOW TO KEEP TY ———- ALL THE TOP PLAYERS “ CHIP “ IN A COUPLE MILLION OR MORE—— SIGNING OF DRE SHOULD HELP!!!! —— HEY PAY THE FREAKING TAX IF NECESSARY
I think on Ty there’s more at play this offseason. Given his age, he’ll be advised that this should be the biggest contract he’ll ever get. So, is there someone out there who sees him as their solution at point guard? San Antonio jumps out, but, is there anyone with space who wouldn’t want him? To max out, he needs to start and he can’t here. Just playing his way out of town in the best way possible, I think
Yup, this is his chance to score, unfortunately for him a lot teams are going into the offseason with very little cap space.
Luckily for the Cavs, unluckily for Ty, the Cavs have a great chance of keeping him simply because there’s very few alternatives that would both pay more and get him on a good situation.
I also think acquiring Hunter, his best friend, will make it appealing to Ty to stay. Also, I highly encourage Cavs Dan to cut him an under the table deal. GIT R DUN KOBY!
I hope they will figure out a way, which will likely involve moving some other players. but it is not just paying the tax, you just can’t do it.
THANK YOU TOM FOR THE SHOUT OUT—- WILL ACCEPT IF ASKED 🤪🤣🤪🤣🤪——- ONLY 5 MINUTES— BUT THOSE 5 MINUTES WERE EXCITING TO WATCH—- WHAT I WAS HOPING FOR FROM JAVONTE ——- IS A “ POSSESSION GRABBER “ DEFENSIVE STOPPER— VERSATILITY—- GD FROM 2–4 ——- ALSO RUNS THE FLOOR/ GREAT CUTTER—— WHICH OUR PLAYERS WILL FIND—- AND DONT GET IN HIS WAY WHEN HE FINISHES/ YOU WILL BE GOING TO THE HOSPITAL— GREAT SIGNING BY KA 👍👍👍
everyone scored — everyone with a + on the +/-. how often does that happen?
Low key very hard to see five losses here post-Boston.
Might get to 66 or 67.
or 70
Impressive considering that every opponent would love to beat the Cavs on any given night, although at this point many may just be hoping to avoid an embarrassing beatdown. I hope the Cavs keep things loose and don’t get too caught up in chasing a regular season record.
Zero chance of that happening with Mitchell leading the team. His favorite phrase is “we haven’t done anything yet” they’re locked in on a chip.
Doncic gets an early tech
JAYLON TYSON BEGGING FOR MINUTES
He may turn out to be one of the better picks at 20 or later in recent memory. He isn’t Jimmy Butler or Pascal Siakam, but could he be as impactful as Dejounte Murray at some point?
Hell if he’s just a rotation player that’s a success for the bottom of 1st… where probably over 90% of the players don’t even make it.
Interesting comments from Ty in the court-side interview post-game . . . That he was “speechless, really” when he heard Deandre was coming to Cleveland and that Deandre “is my best friend.” Vibes!
hope this influences keeping Ty after this year
JEVONTE GREEN 3 REBOUNDS IN 5 MINUTES… EXACTLY WHAT HE DOES!!
I’m jumping on the wagon! Dude just instinctively knew where he needed to be on the floor, vocal on defense. Cabs need nomad in front office role stat
I AGREE GO CAVS
Another great win. The utmost professionalism on display.
Matched last year’s win total.
DEAN WADE +23 IN 19 MINUTES 7 REBOUNDS, HES BACK BABYYY!!!!!!
