Nice move morris
Giannis got a hammy?
Rooting for the Celts and the Nets (good for a limited time only). Let’s get the #2 back.
Any friendly suggestions on where to watch the game tomorrow? It doesn’t look like it’s on Bally Ohio.
If you have NBA League Pass, you can watch the Heat broadcast.
Channel 43 WUAB, but I’m assuming you’re not in the area?
No, I’m in PA, so pay for the Bally Ohio app. This is the first game that hasn’t been on this or a network this year.
2nd game. I wasn’t able to watch the Wolves game.
Looks like I was able to grab a free trial (7-days) on Fubo TV. Should be able to catch the game there tonight. It’s lame the Bally doesn’t also carry it.
Thanks! I’ll check that out.
Rewatched the game. Good times. Let the record show that DG actually passed out of the double team for the hockey assist via JA to the cutting Okoro with the game on the line. FINALLY!
Trying to get the shortened rotation that JB is so fond of set up for the playoffs is going to be super tough with 3 starters coming back from injury.
Hopefully JB will see reason and play his bench in the first round or two.
i hope he plays lineups that make shots and play good defense and gang rebound. don’t care about the length of the bench.
we trying to win 4/7 I don’t care who sees the floor (and that includes possibly not having my favorite sons Evan and Darius in every closing lineup).
(i think i care about the length of the bench next year and if JB is going to stay – I think it’s more likely than not unless we get healthy and then swept in the first round, which seems unlikely) I imagine he’ll have to make some commitment to the FO to play guys a little more)
Manny DeLauter will be starting.
10 Cleveland Cavaliers 8 Last Rank Stretch run question: Are the Cavs tough enough for the playoffs? That’s essentially what we need to figure out to see if we’re going to believe in the Cavs this postseason. And it’s probably annoying to Cavs fans because this team is excellent. It’s handled injuries as well as you can expect. The Cavs remain in the hunt for the No. 2 seed and still have a top-three defense. But the offense has never really come around, and we’re still waiting for them to be healthy. And if they are, we’re waiting to see… Read more »
LMFAO 👍🤪
“AND THE BEAT GOES ON “ WITH FRIGGIN INJURIES———- I GUESS BETTER NOW ——- GET HEALTHY FOR PLAYOFFS——- CONCERNS ABOUT TIMING WITH ALL PLAYERS/ STAMINA————- MY POST 2 WEEKS AGO WERE CONCERNS OF “ LIMPING “ INTO PLAYOFFS WITH NO MOMENTUM./ CONFIDENCE———- I DONT THINK THERE ARE ANY “ GOMME “ 1st ROUND OPPONENT s FOR THE CAVS——- WILL BE A DOGFIGHT NO MATTER WHO THEY PLAY———- PLEASE PROVE ME WRONG CAVS
fortunately we have Georges Niang
DM out for at least one week after nose surgery.
the good news is that he is rehabbing two things at once.
Jb with another timely challenge Morris just picked up a contract and levert making run for 6th man of the year his 25:1 odd$ are great value :)
Yeah. That was a good challenge of one of the worst calls I’ve ever seen.
I said in the 1st half that Pacers were soft. Happily proven right.
Knicks going to eek out the win in cali…was very important for us to do the same tonight against indy. Despite garland’s 5 turnovers he played fairly well. However…there is no safe round 1 opponent for us. Even orlando would worry me. We WILL find out if our title window is at all viable with JB at the helm or it isn’t this year. I am of the mind we already know…but goodness would it be fun if he surprised me. Especially if we end up with miami as the 6. Gotta think to maintain the 3 seed at least… Read more »
Buddy no round 1 opponent is safe FROM us. We have a versatility no opponent except Boston can match, and how we win matters. Styles make fights in the playoffs and we have multiple signature wins with different styles even with Donovan hurt. How we beat Boston was different than how we beat Minny vs how we beat NOP vs last night.
Sorry I missed this one live guys. Was a solid win if ugly. Caris and Marcus get game balls if u ask me. I always knew he was the smart one.
right.
pretty wild season, and we need every win.
Marcus is about as unlikely a hero on our radar as anyone in the league.
Have been waiting for your take on Morris signing. This’ll do.
I panned it, but he was solid. Much better than Niang.
RUMOR s HAS DG OPENING A NEW COFFEE SHOP—-WITH ALL THE “ FREE TURNOVERS “ YOU CAN EAT——— HE HAS PLENTY TO GIVE AWAY——-SIMILAR TO WHAT HE DOES WITH A BASKETBALL
Rough night again.
Allen fumbling a lot of stuff in that first half too. they are like two half-seconds away from being back in sync, but when they get there offense will get real easy.
CARIS CLOSE TO A TRIPLE/ DOUBLE——- MAN HE HAS BECOME AN ASSIST MERCHANT RECENTLY
excellent bench player
I was just going to comment this:
Caris in 38 min
7-15 FG (1/5 3PT, 6-10 on 2PT)
8 rebounds
11 assists
1 steal
1 block
only 1 TO
team-high +12
Caris is 12th in the league at 8.1 assists per game in March
and 4th in total steals for the month of March.
WILL HAVE TO WATCH REPLAY——-IS MORRIS GOING TO BE THE CAVS “ JOE FLACCO “ —- WAS BIG FOR CAVS TONIGHT ( GOING BY BOX SCORE ONLY) —VETERAN EXPERIENCE/ PRESSENCE DOES ACCOUNT FOR ALOT
80% from 3? I will take that all year long. I am changing my tune on that signing right now.
Looked good.
(per Fedor having a prior relationship with JB was a significant factor in the signing…relationships are good)
Niang and DG icing the game, God’s Favorite Haliflop shitting the bed!
beautiful, go cavs
I was happy to see a Morris brother today.
Never thought I’d say that.
He played well, though.
That’s a good one
Super win! Caris with the big night!
Okoro went over and back. Woof. Glad they missed that one.
Four corners offense!
Haliflopper tried to flop out of bounds but it didn’t work.
Shocked it wasn’t called.
DG did foul him though
Nice Ice!!!!
Ice Ice Baby!
Need to a hoop and a stop.
Exactly what I called for…
I’m hoping this call is reversed.
Please stop making me watch Georges wiggling around.
BS call.
Your lips to God’s ears.
Caris with a surprise MADE floater..
15 points this quarter.
PleasestopturningtheballoverDariusGarland.com
DG with the predictable clutch turnover.
He is consistent.
Garland with another turnover 🤦♂️
DG. Man.
There goes our 9 point lead
Haliflopper!
Good aggressive heads up d
SAM I AM
Nice game,I almost turned it off.
4 triples for Morris!
He’s hit some needed shots this game
Just started watching. Looks like they’ve come from behind a bit.
Rough first quarter.15 down
Tight 1st half surprisingly. I’m out, Go Cavs.
Caris cheffing!!!
Pacers lineup is soft AF.
Niang has got to be the worst player in nba. Play him more JB
3/4 from 3, second on team in plus/minus, defensive stop that won the game…
the hate JA theory wasn’t getting traction, likewise the hate Caris theory, so now they are moving on to hate Georges theory.
some people aren’t happy unless they have someone to hate.
it’ll be Darius and JB for the rest of the way (he’s a MAX PLAYER (note: he gets paid MPJ and Desmond Bane money, those dudes aren’t even allstars) can’t he manufacture 30/11 every night).
tiring
Pacers starting to play with their food. Interesting.
Not a great 1st quarter
Merrill, Allen & Caris all werkin.
Haliburton is a whiny biatch.
Other than levert no one is ready to play. Including our 40 million dollar point guard
CPJ early & often, please.
When Spida comes back, promise me he will play in a mask. Because that shit is just dope.
Go Cavs!
