Live Thread: Cavs @ Bucks
2017-12-19
Matthew Dellavedova’s going to start! Delly, after sitting out with an injury for quite some time is in the starting lineup (though on a minutes restriction) for Milwaukee. I assume he’ll be alongside another guy I’d love to have on the Cavs, Eric Bledsoe. For the Cavs, Everyone but Thomas is available, though Lue is supposedly being “cautious” with Iman Shumpert. Cleveland has won 17 of the last 18, while the Bucks have dropped three straight. I’m sure they’ll be hungry for a win.
Prediction: Cleveland Squeaks out a win with superior LeXecution down the stretch and wins 112-110.
How about Lue rolling with these guys and resting Bron…
AND ONE TT
Cavs really scouting Giannis well. Everyone sat on that spin.
Canadian Dynamite!
Bucks have tightened up considerably…
Damn JG… gotta hit those man…
Time for some Korver heroics…
Jeff Green is MFQ tonight. Need the Green Machine
Maybe Lue was keeping Green fresh for the last quarter. /s
Jeff Green is the most Milwaukee player on the Cavs… said in a complementary way…
ty not having the confidence in cedi tonight —these are games I think he needs those minutes
Wonder if LeBron ever played a game without a rebound?
It’s weird, right?
Crowder got to double digits… 13-0 record when he does so in jeopardy…
will have 1 more chance ——get it to 5 and let’s see what happens
Something happened.
Time for James to see if Cavs can make a final push.
Under 10.
Well… down to 9, Bron will come back…
Ball don’t lie.
Mark Davis hosing the Cavs yet again…
Jesus. Another garbage call.
Heart in my mouth, thought Crowder was about to jack another 3.
Wade did get pushed, but he should still have finished that one…
If they can get it down to 10… can see Bron coming back… if not, he really shouldn’t
If I say this is Lue’s way of getting TT to realize he doesn’t fit in the rotation with the second unit, am I giving too much credit?
Wait… I thought you were out?
Every time I’m out, they pull me back in.
LOL
Also this comeback is with him on the floor, so…
I’ve never seen TT do that…
Foul on Maker… um ya think?
Ok
Let’s get in the Bonus.
Jeff Green still playing. Crowder starting to get as frustrating as Shumpert. Why has he beeen on the floor so long?
Like yr reading my mind man.
Crowder is hard to watch. Green has been flat better all year.
Jeff Green taking it right at them… love it
Brogdon gets the call that James hasn’t gotten all day.
Wow… how is that a foul?
Nice two man game and trey by Wade…
Bucks really staying tight on Kover…
Green still working… good second chance board by TT
I am out.
Probably that’ll do it…
Wade and Crowder jacking threes: not a recipe for success.
It’s a recipe for a shark sandwich, though…
TT should not be in the rotation. It will take Lue at least 5 losses to figure it out.
Now it’s likely over… Wade jacking threes and Alphabet making soup…
Crowder 1/6 beyond the arc.
Apols, think that’s 0/6!
This is dangerous with Giannis in there against the Dinos…
Jesus. Wade got smoked in that Giannis move after running a terrible possession.
Maybe we will get a special guest appearance by Channing Frye.
Cavs just wasting time… Wade’s gotta be more assertive
Well this lineup. Makes no sense.
LBJ and KLove are a combined 19-31 for 51 points… Rest of the Cavs are 12-29 for 32 points…
Nets pick update, I may check out soon. Wins:
7 = Hawks
8 = Grizz, Mavs
9 = Bulls
10 = Kings, Lakers
11 = Suns, Magic, Hornets, Nets, Clips
Tomorrow:
Raps at Hornets
Pacers at Hawks
Kings at Nets
Magic at Bulls
Lakers at Rockets
Pistons at Dallas
Grizz at Warriors
Suns at Clippers
Is Channing Frye hurt? Wasn ‘t on the injury report
HOOOOORRRRRRSSSSSEEEEE (bleeep)
Man these refs love marching Giannis to the line.
LBJ somehow still has zero rebounds…
Too. Many. turnovers.
Coulda used that three Kev…
Dont’ understand – Crowder awful, has played 22 min. Could use Green on D and he has 11 minutes. Lue just doesn’t seem to adjust quickly to situations. Hoping Korver gets it going.
Put in Frye!
Giannis called for a travel! It’s a Christmas miracle!
CUT-ZUS!
Love they called that travel!!
Middleton with a lot of contact on Bron.
Maybe do more of that where LeBron dunks.
I think the Greek Freak fouls LeBron in every possession.
Henson is not this good… nobody choosing to guard him…
Cavs team defense is tough to watch. We need to be better at taking good shots. They take way too many crap jump shots.
Layup line for Jim Henson.
Just a step off tonight.
Kev’s gotta foul Henson there.
Crowder likes to shoot contested 3s and take on 2 defenders under the rim. Ainge pulled a fast one on Corby!
A lot of Celtics fans were saying last year how disappointing Crosder was, and that’s while he was at a career best 3%. Corby should have told Ainge Brown or GFY.
Awful transition D. We have a long way to go.
Crowder can’t force that shot vs that length. Kick it out. Move the ball.
This game feels like the Warriors outclassing a team. Cavs are scoring in bunches and still not able to keep pace.
I don’t understand why they’re running plays for Crowder.
