Live Thread: Wizards @ Cavs
2023-03-17The Cavs welcome the Washington Wizards to the shores of Lake Erie in a low-key important Eastern Conference tilt. The Wizards are competing with the Chicago Bulls and Indiana Pacers for the 10th seed in the East, while the Cavs are trying to complete the season series sweep of the Wizards as well as hang on to the fourth seed in the East. Surely the Wizards will have revenge on their minds, and the Cavs should have a sense of urgency to keep the fourth seed. Jarrett Allen will miss the game and Lamar Stevens will start in his place according to Chris Fedor of cleveland.com
Who are the Wizards statistically? They’re the definition of mediocrity doing nothing well and also doing nothing awfully. One thing that they can do is move the ball well and make some shots, but they can be exploited a variety of ways. The Cavs can push the pace, crash the glass, and disrupt passing lanes are the three things that stand out.
Tip off is scheduled for 7:30PM Eastern time and will be broadcasted live on Bally Sports Ohio/Great Lakes, Go Cavs!
cap up
Knicks beat Nuggets….Cavs need to keep momentum.
this was the 94-foot putt for $10K I mentioned in the live thread.
was there a toothpick sighting ?
Windler ? He came in and hit a 3 on his first shot.
nice.. i wish the young fella well.. here’s hoping he can play for a few years and have some fun.. busting out with injuries would be a real tragedy to live with down the road..
dominant performance!!! Bench reallllllly in a groove as of late
i really hope when JA gets back that we just move Llama to the 9th man and keep Cedi, Caris, and RR as 6-8
Rather he be 12th. Diakite, Green, Wade ahead for me.
Some March stand-out stats: Donovan shooting 28.6% from 3 in March (2.5 – 8.8).. we really need him to start hitting a few more since he attempts the most. Mobley is getting to the line the most at 5.9 attempts per game. Next is DM at 4.9 and DG at 4.3. Caris is our 4th leading scorer at 14.1 per game. 5 players are averaging more than 1 steal per game. Caris 1.8 DG 1.4 DM 1.4 Jarret 1.4 Isaac 1.2 Evan almost averaging 2 blocks per game at 1.9 +/- for March: DG: +11.5 Caris: +8.6 Evan and Jarret:… Read more »

Mitchell needs time off, he can’t even dribble left handed. I’d do it as soon as Jarrett Allen comes back
MITCHELL RIGHT HAND ONLY CARIS LEVERT STEAL AND DISH TO DG!!!!! SURRENDER TIMEOUT WES UNSELD!!!!!
CARIS HATERS TOO ASHAMED TO SHOW THEIR FACES!!!! THE SILENCE IS BEAUTIFUL!
Caris is one of our best perimeter defenders.

I don’t know about y’all but the NBA app is showing me the Nissan BASIC ad at least 100 times every game. Lord.

MOBLEY BULLY BALL
RUBIO WITH A VETERAN FLOP LETS GOOOO
OKORO KEEPS GETTING COOKED OVER AND OVER GET HIM OUT JB
I feel DM should sit for the rest of the game.
Okorohno with that pass
WHY THE HELL IS OKORO IN THERE???????????
Jeez the Wiz suck.
4 days until next game, so no problems playing all the starters to the end
GET OKORO OUT OF THERE HES GOTTEN COOKED ALL NIGHT
Is it me or do they play better without Mitchell?
It’s just you LMFAOOOO Mitchell is playing with one hand, and they’re bum slaying backup lineups too typically.
Not blaming Mitchell.
Always helps with players are actually making shots.
NICE ATTACK CARIS
Filthy drive and dish from Rubio.
Ragdoll physics engine Daniel Gafford.
Cavs Tonight:
DARIUS GARLAND!!!!!!!
Ideal outcome: call upheld but Gafford assessed a tech for playing like a derp.
Hard contact their between Mobley and the air
They’re not gonna overturn that but it was an egregious flop.
MOBLEY NEVER TOUCHED HIM!!!!!!!!! FUCK YOU REFS!!!!!!!
Got him on the beard.
LMFAOOOOOOOO
From the other angle he did though.
DG 1 assist away from a double double
Bench showing up with 27 points, 9 rebounds and 11 assists.
Great passing and finish by DG.. great start to the 4th.. up 16
Cavs 4/4 to start the quarter.
RUBIO WITH THE SAUCE DG WITH THE FINISH WES UNSELD DESPERATION TIMEOUT I DONT WANNA SEE OKORO OR STEVENS UNTIL GARBAGE TIME JB
At what point did you go full NOMAD?
Nomad left him the broken typewriter while he’s on vacation.
MORE BEER PLEASE
Heh!
Ohmigod, Rubio and the globetrotters!
Woooo Go Cavs!
Ricky with his left side bank shot from the wing.
TBF, Caris looks like so much of a better passer than DG and Mitchell because he’s playing with guys who can shoot.
KUZMA JUST FELL BY HIMSELF
Caris LeVerts for an alley oop dunk!
CEDI DEFENSE!!!!!!!! DG TO CARIS LAKE ERIE SHOW BABYYYYYY
Cavs 3rd Quarter:
Restricted area:7/9
Paint: 3/5
3 pointer: 0-6 (DG 0-3)
MOBLEY TOO STRONG
Caris cooks em again to feed Mobley!
Caris really is a good playmaker. Great to have a 3rd/4th guard that can make plays for their teammates.
which is why it was so dumb that Cavs fans wanted to trade him for catch and shoot players that can’t dribble or pass.
When he was not a bad catch and shoot player. But he was sharing the floor with scrubs so he was never open. Now JB is hiding Stevens on the starting lineup.
Yup.
CARIS WHAT A PASS TO MOBLEY, THEN THE DEFENSE!!!!!!!! CARIS THE BEST PLAYER ON THE COURT
Great pass by Caris!
That was a ridiculously good pass on that outlet. Even had the curve on it.
20 points for the Cavs in the 3rd quarter, offense went into the shitter because JB wanted to play OKoro/Stevens 8 minutes in the quarter.
When Caris’ floater is dropping, you know he’s hot.
LET CARIS COOK!!!!!!
Diakite getting ref balled.
MICKEY MOUSE FOUL CALL REFS
Diakite getting hosed.
