Live Thread: Warriors vs. Cavaliers
2021-04-15
Tonight, the Cleveland Cavaliers play their second game of a back-to-back against the Golden State Warriors, who destroyed the Oklahoma City Thunder last night. Steph Curry looks as good as ever and Warriors appear to be heavily favored. But if Love and company can get hot, that would give them a shot. Chris Fedor is reporting Collin Sexton will be playing tonight. Go Cavs!!!
Garland, Sexton, Okoro, Love, and Allen are the starting five tonight for your Clevelanders.

Cavs getting absolutely obliterated with Sexton/Delly/Prince/Wade on the court tonight.
4 minutes for Hartenstein tonight????? why?
also find that weird, did he tweak his leg or something? doesn’t seem like it
WTF was that, Love? Pass the ball.
Warriors dominating without Green/Curry, WTF, Cavs not in any sort of rhythm tonight
The blowout is on
feels like it — Curry is going to come in a rattle off 9 straight etc.
Sexton -22 in 27 minutes.
Yeesh. Toscano.
Baremore too many weeties
thank you Bazemore, that brick was sorely needed
WTF Prince??? that was awful
Jesus. Sexton and prince so awful on that
Tuscano dunk.
why does some random bench scrub always go off against us?!
It’s usually Wiggins, so I’ll take it
Because we’re bad defensively.
Yup.
Wade open just missed.
Delly willpower getting the Cavs a little closer
NICE DEFENSE WADE!!!!!!!! OH NO BAD PASS LARRY.
Toscano – so humble…🙄
Been playing well tho.
Yes
What a great setup Delly.
good God ref what a bad call.
Thank god Delly didn’t shoot that
Delly missed a wide open Sexton for three, but PRINCE NAILS THE THREE!!!!!
Sexton, Delly, Prince, Wade all double digit negative plus/minus.
OTOH Okoro +12 to lead the team.
Awful close to the quarter, JB not going to Sexton with the backups I didn’t like. I know Sexton’s been bad tonight, but just let him do what he wants when there’s no scoring.
some nice plays by Curry and Darius in that quarter otherwise really pretty choppy/disjointed
Curry is so good. Great defensive hands.
GREAT DEFENSE LARRY!!!!!!!! HUGE PLAY!
Prince should’ve shot that he had length over Curry.
Prince in princely form
uh oh Curry’s found it.
Was just about to post, feels like Curry is going to hit 4-5 threes in a row and put this away…
Nice shot Prince… needed that.
Didnt see replay. Clean or no?
Looked clean.
Okoro face guarding curry whole possessions
Has been the whole game. Pretty certain that is why curry has been off from distance. Didn’t let him get into rhythm early.
Pretty sure coaches don’t like players celebrating a 3pt shot like they’ve won the chip
oh no, that three pointer was unique in the universe (young team over there!)
WOW AWFUL CALL REF!!!! CLEAN BLOCK!
First biased warriors announcers call of the night. One guy says no call on allen screen. Azibuke says ran into him and foul. Kind of surprised by those guys. Wonder if they were like this in the championship days.
We need Sexton back out there with the backups!!!
WOW ALLEN HUSTLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Argh. Larry. Get head in game.
GREAT DEFENSE OKORO OH NO CAVS VALUE THE BALL!!!!
Ok. That was nice curry/poole.
Holy crap what a pass Curry in the PnR.
NICE TAKE ALLEN!!!!!!!
great basketball at last
the constant foul calls making this game difficult to watch
Yeah it’s uncomfortable
Great finish in transition by dg. And then we foul a three point shooter
nice screen Allen, drew the foul
Delly on
You know what curry does that most other guards just do not do? Actually commits to setting screens with his body.
absolutely… and passes the ball to the open man consistently.
Poole flopped again.
BALL DONT LIE!
Darius!
OH NO DG WHY YOU DO THAT.
Late to the contest, he could not stop sliding after the layup
yup I saw that LMFAOOO
smart move by Cavs trying to get it into Allen there to pick up another foul on Green
Hats off to Green, good D on Allen
WHAT A FINISH DG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
let’s go DG!!!
GREAT DEFENSE OKORO!!!!!!!!!!!
that’s right!!!
LARRY arrives
NANCE WITH THE THREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RAGE TO SIX POINT GAME!!!!
PRINCE WITH THE EUROSTEP!!!!!!!!! 9 POINT GAME!
And Cavs appear to not be going away…..
BE THE FIGHT, RIGHT??? LMFAOOOO
My Prince!
Finally some non ragged offense.
Soon as Sexton was pulled LMFAO
DG IN RHYTHM TO PRINCE FOR THREE!!!

Curry the most fundamentally sound player.
Mostly, until he gets amped and tries to do behind the back passes to nowhere…
Zing!!! THAT”S RIGHT!!!
Ahhh the memories
Game is getting junked up
yup, so far benefitting Cavs, but not enough.
Warriors broadcasters convinced cavs aren’t going to go away. I am not as confident, but I hope they’re right.
JB not staggering Love and Sexton…. I hate it.
GREAT READ DG!!!!!!!! LOVE CREATED THAT SHOT!
2 quick fouls on Curry…
Sexton chucking long twos again.
GET THE BALL TO LOVE!!! NICE TAKE!
Great D Allen!
Warriors don’t overpass.
They used to sometimes when they had durant and klay and they literally could get like 8 open shot opportunities in a possession. They don’t have those kinds of weapons right now tho.
Thats the olay ooto?
