Live Thread: Rockets Vs Cavs
2021-02-24UPDATE: Victor Oladipo is starting tonight in his 12th game for the Rockets. P.J. Tucker is also starting.
The Cavs grabbed a last second win against the Hawks less than 24 hours ago. Lamar Stevens, a rookie who probably wouldn’t see the floor for most other teams in the league, caught a pass from Collin Sexton while barreling towards the rim with 4.1 seconds left to play. He finished it with a strong dunk to put the Cavs up 112-11. Stevens had eight points, four rebounds, two assists, and two steals.
Collin Sexton finished the night with 29 points and five assists, while Dylan Windler balled out going 5-5 from 3-land for 15 points along with five assists. The Cavs shot the 3-ball wonderfully in the win going 15-28.
Trae Young went 9-27 for 28 points for the Hawks, and he wonders why he didn’t make the All-Star team. He also had 12 assists. Kevin Huerter went 4-8 from deep for 22 points and grabbed four steals.
The Cavs will look to push the Rockets to their ninth straight loss this evening.
Cleveland is without Kevin Love, Andre Drummond, Matthew Dellavedova, and Larry Nance Jr. as of now. The Rockets are without Christian Wood and Victor Oladipo, Eric Gordon, and P.J. Tucker are questionable.
damn, bad pass DG, 4 point swing. thought he had Allen on the roll instead of the weakside corner.
DG can sling the rock!!!
DG attack with the pass shredding the Rockets.

Saw that Javale play coming from a mile away. Trying to do too much.
D3AN WAD3
Nice play by tate to catch Sexton and save him from an undercut.
small guys routinely get calls on Bigs they should not in the NBA
Good catch by Tate
Oof. Wide open look for Nwaba.
Anyone got shooting stats on Rockets?
they’re shooting poorly
Yes, curious how bad
bunch of low efficient volume scores without Wood
man i just enjoy watching Lamar and Dylan play i this second unit. both just play their asses off, play smart, play within themselves
STEVEN FADEAWAY AND 1!!!!!!
he has a midrange jumper…. needs to extend his range.

Sexton nice patience on the drive, fishes for his spot.
You hate to start the fourth with a two foul possession.
Rockets Gs just barreling into our rooks, getting the calls
Sexy showing off his PG skills.
Danger time with him at the point.

BS CALL REF!!!!!!!!! DUDE TRIPPED OVERHIS OWN FEET!!!!!!
Windler has now made 8 straight triples the last two games.
Streak could be longer depending on what he did prior.
It’s not.
DG with 7 assists in 3 quarters, but also 7 turnovers…. kid is tired tonight.
Dylan Windler is gonna be good.
Not too bad right now.
DAMN ITS GOOD TO SEE WINDLER ON!!!!!
Amen…
And how good is it to be able to say that?
so good
great pass Lamar to Windl3r!!!
Rockets seem soft, ready to be beaten. Nomad, it’s foot on throat time!
BS CALL REF!!!! THAT WAS A CHARGE!
CEDI COAST TO COASt!!!!!!!!!!!
Dunk man on!!
SEXTON NICE DRIVE!
Wow. That was thin.
Allen is good, but he’s playing against Lilliputians tonight. He should get 30/20.
HE COULD POSSIBLY HAVE A 30// 20 NIGHT
That was insanely awesome.
ALLEN 25/13/4 in less than 3 quarters!!!!!!!!
DRE WHO ???——-NOT SURE WHAT THEY WILL ULTIMATELY GET FOR DRE —BUT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN CRIMINAL TO KEEP DRE AND GIVE HIM MORE MINUTES THAN THIS YOUNG STUD // ALLEN
Cavs gave Dre enough rope to fail … frustrating it took this long for Allen to supercede.
Oh my goodness. Back up the truck!!!!
Oh. My. God.
JARRETT ALLEN OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BILL RUSSELL OUT THERE!!!!
Lol Allen…coast to coast…
PAY HIM THE BIG BUCKS NOW !!!!!
ALLEN OH MY
Appears they are unable to stop Allen?
ALLEN WORKING!!!! DG should’ve taken the wide open layup though. can’t be scared to score.
