Live Thread: Cavs vs Bulls
2024-11-15Welcome to Friday and the NBA cup, Cavs fans. Tough news coming into this one: the rumor is Mobley (flu) and Allen (lower leg) are out, joining Sam Merrill and Max Strus on the injury list. Meanwhile the Bulls are only missing Lonzo Ball. I hope they start Wade, Caris, and Okoro. Thor and Jaylen Tyson can come off the bench. Tough start to NBA cup play for the Cavs. Let’s hope the Cleveland crowd carries them through.
I HAVE SAID IT WAY TOO MANY TIMES ——- OTHER MEDIA POST AGREE—— TIME FOR TT TO GO TO BOOTH —- BENCH COAST —— HE BRINGS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ON THE FLOOR/ TAKING UP A ROSTER SPOT—— BRING UP THOR OR NANCE OR MAKE PHONE CALLS TO SOME FREE AGENTS WHO WANT TO BE PART OF SOMETHING SPECIAL—— TIME TO MAKE THE DIFFICULT BUT EASY DECISION
OUCH SPIDA OUT FOR TONIGHT —- MOBES ALSO— I AM READY IF NEEDED 🤪———— THAT WILL GET THE SAME RESPONSE THAT I GET FROM “THE “ MRS NOMAD EVERY NIGHT——UTTER LAUGHTER 🤪
Do we know Mobely is out for sure?
Down Spida, Strus, Mobes, & Merrill would be a lot. Either shorten the rotation or some guys who have not played much have to (TT/Travers for Mobely, Tyson for Merrill, more CPJ for Mitchell).
My guess: DG, LeVert, Okoro, Niang, Allen.
Bench: CPJ, Tyson, Travers, Wade, TT.
Deep bench: Thor
No Ty?
Oops..I knew I forgot someone. Completely my bad. Yes, of course.
I could see starting him instead of LeVert, if Kenny wants Caris to anchor the reserves and have him on 100% when Garland is off.
I tend to forgot about Jerome sometimes because he was out for basically all last year.
He should be burned into my head for this year’s start, bit it slips away somehow.
I think EM is “probable”.
I would think about starting Ty in DM’s spot, put 100% of his energy into pestering LeMelo. the Bugs are on a B2B, get ’em tired out ASAP.
Agreed.
Step up time:
DM and probably EM will NOT play Sunday.
“Celtics are expected to travel to the White House to celebrate the 2024 NBA championship on Thursday”
Delicious, Cavs have the opportunity to hand Boston a loss in their final game prior to the trip.
1) what is the fact pattern that leads to Kenny NOT being COTY? seems impossible.
2) …we are definitely getting three all-stars
3) …and a cake mix first round series.
three more years of this core, too. what a ride
Cavs have an 8 point lead in the Central. Teams 2-5 in the division are separated by 1 game.
great stat!
