Live Thread: Mavs @ Cavs
2021-05-09Good evening CtB and Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers and mother figures out there.
Tonight we have the severely undermanned Cavs trying to take on the Luka Doncic led Dallas Mavericks. The Cavs would do well to keep this within 10, but that’s highly unlikely given the circumstances. Win or lose, the Cavs will either snap a terrible nine game losing streak or take one step closer to better lottery odds with the Minnesota Timberwolves, Detroit Pistons, Orlando Magic, and Oklahoma City Thunder all in action tonight as well. Go Cavs!
#Cavs Cedi Osman and Isaiah Hartenstein are both OUT tonight against Dallas while Kevin Love WILL PLAY, sources tell @clevelanddotcom. The starting lineup will be:
Collin Sexton, Isaac Okoro, Dean Wade, Kevin Love and Jarrett Allen

Schedules: Det: Min, Den, Mia. Orl: at Mil, at Atl, at Phil x 2. Cavs: Indy, Bos, at Wash, at Brk. OKC: at Sac x2, Utah, LAC. Minny: at Det, Den, Bos, Dal Only game for anyone vs a team not in the PO mix is Minny at Detroit. Sac is borderline. Hopefully, some of our fellow tankers will face teams who are locked in & resting guys. Orl at Philly and OKC at Clips could fall into that. Barring rest games, don’t see many/any W’s for the tankers, save maybe Minny. For us, Indy, Bos, Wash all likely to… Read more »
Minny hammered Orlando. Detroit lost. OKC going now. Wins:
16: Rockets
——-
20: Pistons
21: Cavs, Wolves, Magic, OKC (playing now)
OKC look done
They won’t be within 20 points the rest of the season. More blatant tanking than the Hinke Sixers.
Oh just saw Jimmy Buckets & his crew downed Boston. Feeling better already.
Heck yeah, and how bout them Knicks?!!!
now 4th in the East…
Truly crazy!!!!!! LMFAOOOOOOOO
A real coach makes a difference.
Think they would trade us Kemba for Sexton & Love?
Can’t hurt to ask!
well, Cavs played like shit in the 2nd half, but CtB solid all game!!!
Repping hard! Later CLF
Have a great Monday Simmo!
Stuck on 90
Thomas quick thinking
they ain’t gonna come close.
Or maybe they will break 100????!!! LMFAOOOOOO
Andy blew it
there were a couple of possessions in this game where the bigs were left to throw up a 3 from the corner, almost makes one miss Andre Drummond!
LMFAOOOOO DAMMIT ANDY!
nice read Thomas, also nice defense earlier on the ball.
C’mon Cavs, 100 or bust
LMFAOOOOOOOO that’s the spirit!!!
so funny that that the Mavs just ran the Cavs out of the gym after Luka was ejected.
Missed the ejection, what happened?
Sexton took a cheap shot putting his shoulder in Luka’s back, Luka took a cheap shot at Sexton’s family jewels LMFAOOOOOO
Felt the Mavs had contempt for Colin in the 1st half. Sexton reacting to the disrespect maybe.
that wouldn’t surprise me… also Sexton didn’t shoot very well in the first half, probably frustrated.
cavs shooting 40% from 3, naturally shoot 25 more twos than 3s
Think we just saw why Love tends to not drive to the hoop
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Love nice spin move but just shoot the damn shot.
Goodnight guys. Enjoy the rest of the game.
Goodnight Nate!
Later Nate!
See ya Nate!
JFC that Sexton possession. Just refusing to pass to Love.
followed by leaving JJ Redick wide open for three LMFAOOOOOO I’m sick of watching him, three years is enough
OKORO!!!!!!!
With panache!!!!!
LOVE FOR THREEEE!!!
nice pass Sexton, nice play Love
Kabengele hitting shot at least!
And that is how you ice a game
Jesus.
Luka ejected, Mavs promptly blow the game wide open LMFAOOOOO
Jeez Mavs can’t miss
truly amazing how Sexton consistently plays trash defense
Mavs do not hesitate shooting threes. Cavs could learn something there.
Well i don’t think the Cavs are in danger of accidentally winning.
Hardaway feeling it
Who would you rather have: peak Varejao or peak TT?
Andy.
Varejao probably…. think his peak was higher
Missed this quarter, what happened to Luka, backchatting refs?
Okoro sandwich fouled.
Andy doing Andy things. Has looked playable tonight.
Sloppy by Andy, hard to blame him tho

damn Allen got hammered no call
Nice pocket pass Sexton
Jesus. Ooto turnover. A JB special.
https://twitter.com/oldseaminer/status/1391552723124895746?s=20
Well Cavs really coming up big in the suck clutch not hustling for the loose balls.
Crap. Luka gone. Cant afford to win this one.
JB won’t let that happen. Watch for Wild Thing if this gets too close
WTF?????? Doncic got ejected??????
Yeah I didnt expect that call
Just tuning in…Dan, are you around?
Powell getting some extra run due to WCS foul trouble. These fantasy finals are gonna come down to the wire… watching every rebound with bated breath.
I hate you both, and Jordan Poole more.
great steal Wade
Sexton passed up a wide open three twice in a row…. get him outta there
Twolves up on Magic 64-39 just before half…that titanic struggle is likely over…
thank you wolves!
LOVE HUSTLE!
DOT FROM DEEP!!!!!!!! SINGLE DIGITS!
damn, short lived LMFAO
Kevin Love poor weakside boxout cost a couple of points, am glad he got those back at the stripe. Hardaway 3 hard to see how Thomas could have done better, he (Thomas) had a really good half
He’s playing great
THOMAS FROM DEEP!!! WHAT A SWEET STROKE!
Continues to be a nice surprise
he has a path as a 3 and D guy
