Live Thread: Wizards @ Cavs
2021-04-30Good evening CtB!
Tonight the Cleveland Cavaliers seek a bit of payback against the still-hot Washington Wizards. There are multiple reports that Collin Sexton has cleared concussion protocol and will play:
J.B. Bickerstaff says Collin Sexton WILL be playing tonight for #Cavs
— Ashley Bastock (@AshleyBastock42) April 30, 2021
While Sexton does return, a whole host of Cavs are still out, including Isaiah Hartenstein, Matthew Dellavedova, Larry Nance, Jr., Taurean Prince, and Lamar Stevens. The Cavs appear to be a solid home dog tonight (+7 at the time of this writing).
One thing to watch will be whether Wizards’ Coach Scott Brooks gives the Cavs a heavy dose of Daniel Gafford, Davis Bertans, and Garrison Mathews all of whom locked down the Cavs in the fourth quarter of their last matchup. On the flip side, does Sexton give the Cavs a needed offensive boost in the high pressure situations of the game.
It’s Friday evening, sit back and relax and follow the advice of our beloved CtB commentator extraordinaire NOMAD: “more beer please”!!!

Sorey i missed that, guys. Could never catch up to live thread. What a mess that third quarter was.
It was a lousy game, but when DG had to exit, it was just hopeless…
Yeah, that was the last straw for me. So disgusted I forgot to say goodbye! 😮
LMFAOOO honestly the only appropriate response to the game!!! Enjoy the rest of your Saturday!
Pretty sure the Celtics have just completed a 30 point comeback LMFAOOOO
Was watching the score, it’s sickening…
Tatum went OFF
Looks like OT…
Smart called on a questionable foul I thought, but maybe just a dumb play LFMAOOO
MARTIN TO THOMAS FOR THREE!
KABENGELE COAST TO COAST!!!!!!!
Nice pass Wright? Dotson wide open just missed.
i’m sorry it’s Jeremiah Martin.
That JB/Sexton conversation was obviously about pulling him to see Brodric Thomas.
that was weird, JB head straight to Sexton for a talk after the Wizards call timeout… looked like an animated conversation.
Not a surprise.

nice finish Allen.
Sexton wanted back in to fix his FG% LMFAOOOO
Sexton getting clowned on defense by Raul Neto LMFAOOOOOO
and then turns the ball over… 8 turnovers.
Wade’s shot totally gone after getting pulled from the rotation.
WOAH KABENGELE!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT A FINISH!!!!!!!!!!
great pass Cedi!!!!
Gafford unstoppable against the Cavs.
That was a ridiculous pickup for them…I think he was basically a throw-in…
yup, and they were able to dump Troy Brown Jr. who was a total bust.
nice finish Cedi
They seriously could lose out the rest of the way if DG can’t go, along with the other injured guys…
It was funny to see some of Cavs’ media totally change their tune this week after crowing about a play-in game.
Wizards depth really putting their stamp on the game again. Cavs bench totally outmatched.
WOW, Dotson got screwed there was no foul
LMFAOOOOO somehow Sexton threw that pass over the head of Wade… 7 turnovers now for Sexton
19 turnovers…still in the 3rd…
Close to unwatchable
Sexton is truly the tank commander LMFAOOOO
Just painful without DG…
yup, what the hell was Koby thinking last draft??? Halliburton was exactly what we needed. No shade to Okoro, he was just simply someone we didn’t need.
we really don’t have an offense without DG
GREAT DEFENSE WADE!
Okoro constantly gets rooked by the refs…
Don’t think DG’s coming back.
Nope
Sexton terrible defense, Ish Smith blows right by
awful take Okoro, passed up a wide open three… takes awful shot and it’s a 5 point swing.
CEDI FOR THREE!!!!! found his stroke back maybe???
This feels inevitable….slowly losing touch. Hard to enjoy.
yup, agreed Simmo… trending in the wrong direction
Love 20 minutes, zero shot attempts. Embarrassing for everybody involved.
Wierd that commenators aren’t really touching it.
Probably because it’s really not affecting their offense yet…. Sexland happy to chuck away so casual fans are happy.
Bizarre stat line for this game — obviously the Cavs need rebounding (he got 10) and teams are wary of Love’s 3 point range but you’d probably have to go back quite a ways to find another 0-0 shot game for him.
Sexton two bad shots in a row…. at least one was a 3. Had Cedi wide open for 3 and airballed the 2nd shot. Rage TO JB
CEDI OFF THE DRIBBLE!!!
Love finally gets a touch. With his face.
LMFAOOOOOOO at least he got a hand on it!!!
or face rather!
Allen having a pretty effective game…
man Sexton’s just completely unaware defensively, pass literally went whizzing by his face and didn’t lift a finger LMFAOOO
What is the tactic with Love here? Honestly curious.
He’s playing the way the coaches want, which is extremely stupid.
ALLEN HUSTLE!
nice hands Cedi on weakside defense
