Live Thread: Cavs vs. Nets (#Let’sPlayTwo)
2021-01-22Greetings from Bucharest CtB! Given the time difference, I was only able to see the tail end of the Collin Sexton NBA Jam Experience, but WOW! What a show!
Tonight, we’ll see if the Young Bull can pull off a repeat performance as part of the NBA’s new tribute to Ernie Banks of teams playing back-to-back games in one city tips off. He should have an even easier time getting his shots off as Kevin Durant won’t play in this one.
The Nets still have plenty of firepower with James Harden and Kyrie Irving, yet Durant was the primary reason Brooklyn was even able to stay in the first installment on Wednesday. If the Cavs can once again dominate the Nets with their waves of giant bodies, offset by their rising superstar scoring guard… it might be a long night for Steve Nash and Co.
Catch all the action starting at 7:30pm EST on Fox Sports Ohio, and as always… chime in with your thoughts below!
LET’S GO CAVS!
Cavs can win this in the paint, not from the arc.
Great save of that possession by Prince…
Kyrie just one of the best offensively to ever lace em up… Sexton was all over him there
No one is better at protecting the ball on the drive
Jarrett over Dre down the stretch…
Maybe some Allen AND Dre?
Good ball movement… gotta hit those corner treys…
WINDLER DEFENSE!!!! OKORO SKIES FOR THE REBOUND!!!!!!
Okoro with the EFFORT
Cedi unlicky there
that ball was almost all the way down LMFAOOOO
He needs to see one go down… feel for him. Okoro saved the day though…
ICEMAN COMETH! Strong man move!
Windler with the strip of Harden!
Well that was dumb….

Sexton the walking bucket… FEAR THE WALKING BUCKET
New nickname found…
OH MAN, great pass Okoro, that sucks just a tick too late.
Damn… just a half sec too late…
AC getting greedy… I love it

great timeout JB…. get a bucket here.
He’s reading my mind tonight…
he is you. LMFAOOOOOOOOO
Prince for the dagger, nice try
too ambitious there Prince, but i like the guts LMFAO
Ice has played as good of defense on Harden in the last two games as I’ve seen anyone do on him…
Yep. He’s amazing.
honestly it’s crazy…. freaking 19 year old rookie following the book to a T
I’m loving the new editions to the team…Allen and Prince look great
Here comes Golden Turd… ugh
ALLEN CANNOT BE STOPPED!!!!
19 points in 15 minutes for Allen!
One of my favorite Cavs players already…loved him on the Nets, too…
YOU CAN’T STOP JARRETT
AGREE WITH YOU EVIL —-JUST MORE OF A COMPLETE TEAM
Do you know what I want? I want the Cavs to force Irving & Harden to sit down.

YEP THE CAVS ARE HAVING FUN PLAYING RIGHT NOW —-GOOD TO SEE—–GOOD TO SEE LOVE ‘S ENTHUSIASM / SUPPORT ON THE BENCH
This might be blasphemy… but this team is more fun to watch than almost any of the LeBron squads…
I agree, I was thinking the same thing…
I was just coming on to post that this team is really fun to watch…great player movement, ball movement and defensive energy…and was thinking this brand of ball is so much more fun to watch than the iso ball of the Lebron era
GRUMPY!!! How ya been?
Pretty well Evil…I’ve been M.I.A. On here for a while…really loving watching this team playing high energy high effort team ball…
Hard to compare for me… just a different kind of fun
Expectations really changes things!!!!
Hit them hard the first 2-3 minutes of this 4th quarter and I think the Nets call it a night
Yep
Agreed. They will devolve into hero ball.
Can we encase this team in amber right now?
Oh man DG just a second too late, or that was another Allen dunk.
https://twitter.com/cavs/status/1352800991339548673?s=20
What a quarter. Answered the challenge definitely.
DG HAS GOT TO LEARN NOT TO FORCE IT —-RUN THE TEAM AS A PT GD –LET THE GAME COME TO YOU —–KEEEP “THE ROCK ” MOVIN
For a rookie, Okoro is incredibly smart about his closeouts on 3s…
Couple big buckets from Prince there.
Huge buckets, veteran grit right there.

Nance is killing it with his hands, positioning, vision. In the zone.
DPOY
WINDLER TO NANCE WITH THE OOP!!!! THEY”RE CLOWNING THE NETS!!!
KING PRINCE A NICE ” THROW IN ” WITH THE TRADE ——HELL YES —-TRADE AGAIN WITH THE NETS
Nance might be better than Love at this point.
Totally different skill sets but agree, better all around
defensively, definitely…. offensively, he’s coming along nicely and i think they should use him more.
Over 4 quarters, you may be right.
PRINCE BABYYYYYYYYY HE”S RIDICULOUS!!!
This team could fold if we hit them with another run.
HOLY HELL THIS TEAM!!!!
WINDLER GREAT COURT AWARENESS
HOOOO BOY PRINCE!!! i’ll take it
PRINC3!!!!!
The Cavs are fighting themselves more for rebounds than the Nets lol
Need Sexton back out there…
DG a little out of control there
Yeah gotta get stronger in the lower body to shield against the defender on his layups
Allen owning the Nets tonight.
ALLEN BABY LMFAOOOOOOOOOO
Jarrett freaking ALLEN
Cleveland won the Harden trade.
This… so much
Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard!!
dang it, Nance gave Green the angle there…. but helluva multiple effort team defense there.
” DITTO -DITTO -DITTO ” MIKEO
PRINCE DEFENSE GARLAND TO ALLEN!!!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful, beautiful basketball.
THIS team DOES NOT CARE who you are! THEY come to PLAY!!!
………” MORE BEER PLEASE “
God, Allen is so good…
