Live Thread: Cavs @ Bucks
2025-03-09Good evening CtB!
The Cavs have traversed to the shores of Lake Michigan for a meaningful Central Division national TV primetime clash against the surging Milwaukee Bucks. It’s a stern test, and a professional performance could easily wipe the bad taste of the Cavs’ mouths regarding their recent “coasting” through the season as much the best team in the NBA can do on a 13 game win streak. It’s gonna be a hostile crowd with a motivated opponent, if the Cavs don’t have the juice tonight, it will be one of the few times the Cavs haven’t risen to the challenge. I smell a dominating performance… #LetEmKnow
Tip off is scheduled for 8:00PM Eastern time and will be broadcasted live nationally on ESPN and locally on Fanduel Sports Network, Go Cavs!
Sam has been shooting well last few games. Some concern over the neck beard, though.
Kenny pushes the right button down the stretch and leaves JA, Wade, and Strus in as they run out to a 19 point lead.
Quality win.
WATCHING REPLAY——WILL WATCH ENTIRE GAME TO GET ME “ 3 MINUTES OF GREEN LIGHT “. —— GOOD TEAM WIN – NO STARTER OVER 30 MINUTES—— BOTH DG / SPIDA SUB PAR GAMEs —- STILL GET A “ W “ ———- GRIZZLIES GAME AT MEMPHIS WILL CHALLENGE THE STREAK

Javonte!
Love the trap on Dame there! And Doc waves the white flag!
Bucks are on a home b2b.
Lol
I was like “Cavs getting sloppy. Gotta watch out.” Then. I realized Cleveland was up 19, not 9. 😂
Doc is calling it a night.
Does…this clinch the division? Lol
JAMES DEAN WADE MVP
Hate on Ice and Wade all you want, they are magnificent pieces against this iteration of Milwaukee.
Not me. I am the lone resident on Okoro Island.
He finished in the short roll! Made an open 3! Was really good on screen navigation.
To me he is a dog.
He suffers from the wing logjam but he’s rounding into what the Heat’s role players often are: just a guy who always does the right thing at high effort.
both of them are valuable rotation players.
DG and Spida are 8/27 on FGs and 2/14 from deep and we are up 18.
Another Cavalanche when we needed it most 13-0 in the last 4 minutes and forced 5 turnovers (2 steals by Okoro on Lillard, 1 max steal on prince and a KPJ traveling call… )
My god this team just comes in waves!!!! Go Cavs!!!!
Strus needs a board for a double double.
+/- kings: Wade +22, Okoro +17, Strus +16.
Jarret with the big payback
Allen with the poster!
good one!
JARRETT ALLEN SAYS GOODNIGHT MILWAUKEE!!!!!!
JA throws the hammer down!
Giannis’ shooting coach needs to be fired. Next season tho.
He’s really been good from midrange this year. We’ve worn him out.
Yeah. Crazy.
nIce3!
Bam!!!
ICE!!!
I don’t hate Okoro as POA defender against Giannis.
Or Dame.
a valuable role for D first player that doesn’t get too many minutes.
Of course kpj plays with a nose ring in
This game is becoming a chorus of turnovers
Finally D Wade!!!
JIMMY FUCKING DEAN
Ice shut Dame off right there. But we turned it over.
Jimmy Dean!
Strus, Mobley, Wade, & Merrill have been really good. If I had to pick a 5th, I’d probably go JA for his work on Giannis.
Hunter into the locker room….
Spida really poor tonight.
Merrill huge minutes
GRIND THEM TO DUST
Merrill with a 3. Dame with a flop.
DEANDRE AND SAM SAVE THE DAY AGAIN
Dame is a free throw merchant now? Or did I not notice this behavior in Portland?
always has been got exposed in the Olympics
I second that. Always has been.
DG AND MOBLEY NEED TO TAKE THIS GAME OVER
Well, up 7 after 3.
Argh. Mobley has got to trap Lillard there. Make anyone else beat u.
Yep.
SAM I AM IS A FUCKING BALLER CONGRATS NEW DAD!!!!!
DG & Spida are 1-11 from deep.
Jerome, Merrill, & Hunter are 3-10.
Ice 0-1.
Strus, Mobes, & Wade are 8-14.
Big triple from Hunter there. We needed that.
De’Antrey!
There we go Hunter
Frodown!
This is headed south fast.
Kpj
Hunter doesn’t have the 3 shot tonight
HUNTER GET YOUR HEAD IN THE GAME THAT WAS YOUR SHOT
Giannis with a hook on Allen. DG clobbered.
Good lord.if DG got half the whistle dame does
OMG. What a floater dg
Smart play by Mobley slowing up just enough so Lopez couldn’t get around him to challenge Jerome ‘s shit.
KUZMA JUST GOT CLAMPED BY SAM I AM, GET FUCKED DUMBASS!!!!!!!
HELL YEAH GREAT DEFENSE!!!!!!!
Gotta hit your freebies.
Lopez is dominating our bigs, we need to attack back
They got about 4-5 Orebs a bit back & did not score.
Mitchell struggling a bit.
Mitchell is sucking up joint
Yeah, but they’re playing this like a playoff game and keeping it a 3+ possession game.
THEY DROPPED INTO A ZONE MITCHELL FUCKING TELL JA TO HIT THE NAIL!!!!
Beautiful pass Mobley. Garland just missed
