Live Thread: 76ers @ Cavs
2024-02-12Good evening CtB!
The Cavs welcome the Philadelphia 76ers to the shores of Lake Erie for a massive Eastern Conference battle with playoff seeding implications on the line. The Sixers are in freefall post-Joel Embiid injury, after looking like one of the three best teams in the Eastern Conference for much of the season. Can they survive their Embiid-less portion of their season? A win in Cleveland would be a huge boost for them. For the Cavs, it’s about burying the competition. This is a chance for the Cavs to eliminate them from the pursuit of the top three seeds in the Eastern Conference and continue to put together one of the hottest streaks in NBA history. Can the Cavs take care of business? Stay tuned…
Tip off is scheduled for 7:00PM Eastern time and will be broadcast live on Bally Sports Ohio, Go Cavs!
DONOVAN MITCHELL MVP
Okay maybe not.
3 attempts…..and finally!!!!
Three would be nice here.
Holy shit!!
Tremendous stand there…
Argh. LeVert gotta get up on him.
Was that a double dribble?
Holy shit.
Nice heroics by Spida…
SPIDA AT THE DEATH!!
Cavs got Oubred tonight. On another random night he’d shoot the Sixers out of the game. But he’s hit all his BS tonight.
Add Cam Payne to Oubre and Hield as Cavs killers…
Buddied and Oubred. Yeah it was just a hot shooting night from PHL
Kelly said goodnight.
Garland plays way too lackadaisically at times.
Game over!
Burn the tape.
Forked…
Good d, Strus!
These sets would be fine if they were tied or down two… pace it up and play like you’re down 7 smh…
Put Merrill in.
JB will put him in when it’s too late
DG wastes so much time bringing the ball up…
And then runs into the teeth of the defense without a real plan.
I think he sees plays he doesn’t have the size/strength to pull off.
I can’t argue. He’s gotta play faster.
Maxey on 5?
Why has Merrill only played 9 minutes?
Cause JB put him in bad lineups and doesn’t trust him in second halves.
🤦♂️
Still 4 min.
Let’s play some D and win this.
Punch Buddy in his bucked teeth!
Not their night… no Dean for Cavs, Payne the difference for them… zebras unkind
Still plenty of game.
Not the way they’re wasting it casually bringing it up the floor…
put in ice for strus
Of course we are missing out on that 3 points
They got 2
JB getting out-coached here. You gotta take the ball out of Hield’s hands
Not surprised
If you make him put it on the floor that’s the right call. Scheme wise that’s fine. He’s just hitting and we’re leaving points on the floor
Okay that’s probably game
Man. There’s plenty of game left
Not looking good
That’s a shit call.
That was some stupid stuff there.
I hate these refs
Buddy Hield in his bag.
Guys like Oubre are just walking, breathing variance. If guys like that are hitting everything on a given night, you’re probably losing.
Hornets beating the Pacers… Rockets beating the Knicks
Won’t be mad if we lose, but this would be a real feel-good win if we can find a way
Cavs getting outrebounded, no effort tonight
76ers want it more.
Hield always seems to kill us.
Boy the sixers are just making circus shots. Gonna be a grind
Yep. Gotta grind.
Nice run Sixers. That’s like Hield s fourth ridiculous layup tonight
Most annoying game of the season. So far.
I do not have a good feeling about this game.
Man. Sixers aren’t gonna give this away.
Put Merrill in
Cavs cold from three at the wrong time…
and only shot 29 attempts, not nearly enough Sam Merrill
Get some two’s.
Doesn’t feel like we have it tonight.
Let Caris cook.
LET CARIS COOK!
if we had wade instead of niang I think we’d be up by 6 right now
Is that scar on his face from Oubre’s accident?
Was thinking the same thing
I usually hate it when clients cancel on me. Except when it means I get to watch the second half. Yay 😂
Mitchell and Allen +12 and +13…
man we’re riding mitchell pretty hard tonight.
Spida not exactly money from the line tonight.
Sixers can’t complain about calls here.
Refs going bananas 🍌
Sixers falling over for calls.
Ghost of Embiid…
Bamba just straight flopped there…
Gotta stay on the floor Mobes…
i hate that he jumped straight up and the guy jumps into him and gets the and1
Don’t love this lineup
Don’t love that shot by Mobley. Four point miss.
Cavs need to move the ball.
How long until DM replaces DG?
ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? THERES NO FOUL INVESTIGATE THESE REFS!
Block party!
Lame call. Gotta give the player some space.
Turrible call…
Sweet drive Caris!
Very talks to Buddy a lot 😂
