Live Thread: Cavs @ Clippers (or, Cavs After Dark)
2025-03-18Good evening CtB!
The Cavs are in SoCal for a West Coast tour, first against the Clippers of Los Angeles. This game is the perfect test for the Cavs, who want to get the bad taste out of their mouths following the home loss against the Orlando Magic. They’re facing another desperate team in the Clips as they’re fighting with two other teams to get a playoff spot and avoid the play-in. This should be a playoff like intensity and atmosphere with all hands on deck for the Cavs.
Tip off is scheduled for 10:30PM Eastern time and will be broadcasted live on Fanduel Sports Network, Go Cavs!
Yeah this game exemplifies why we should be doubted. The Celtics are no better btw. But Kenny has to realize who his hot hands are. Ty Jerome has to replace one of DG or DM if it’s important to win this game. If it’s not important I guess whatever. But we can’t go into the playoffs looking weak. Currently we look weak. Like any team who properly scouts us can take our mojo. This road trip just became ultra important.
How did we get prime Leonard when everyone else got street clothes version?
Leonard isn’t 40. He is 33 and has missed multiple seasons. He is still in his prime when he is healthy.
I think Mobley could have done a better job defending Zubac on that play. Looked like he gave up.
Mitchell struggling again for sure.
0 chance we come back. We have abandoned the movement shit on offense in favor of watching the guards. Kenny finally is up against real scouting. Looking forward to how we respond to a 1-4 road trip
Shit, 3 straight ft misses
I mean, the defense we are playing against is solid. They are deflecting our usual tendencies, very few lobs and big to big. Neutralizing our guards forays. They are fouling a lot, so there’s that. Not a lot of the easy stuff
Cavs are gonna lose this the same way they did to Orlando unless they stop with the iso crap.
That was a dumb challenge
Finally a zubac miss. They are letting everyone hang out in the paint tonight
This game is cray cray.
Max Strus making a huge impact!
Of course we are getting prime Kawai
Ridiculous finish, Strus.
Helluva finish from Max on that play
Leonard when healthy is as good as anyone.
What a play by struts!!!!! Catches a zinger under the hoop and lays it in in the same motion
These refs fucking blow!
Mitchell made that layup much harder than it needed to be.
Dude 3 separate Cavs were fouled on that one play. Ridiculous!
That’s cool, Nate. 33 made in a half would have been inconscious
Insane half.
It appears that 33 in a half is a record.
In other news. They’ve combined for 23, and I can’t count.
Man. That was frenetic.
Some of these calls 🤦
Night of the Hunter
The golden turd! 💩
I might fall asleep by halftime fam, but go Cavs!
Wake up!
Lulled to sleep by this litany of offense.
Filthy, Darius.
Dean and Ice. Okoro promptly turns it over.
Ice in a bad way on offense. Passed up open shots on multiple plays. Got badly blocked when he finally did take one.
Did Ty lue put on some weight this year?
He might be moisturizing, or you might have mistaken the substitute coach Brian Shaw for Ty tonight.
DG3!
Kuzma getting played off the court tonight against golden state
Like the denial Dean. Good foul. Zubac is a load, but mobes just maneuvering around him. Amazing
I think the rims are a little wider in the Intuitive Dome.
This is a shoot out!
The czar announcing for clips tonight. Pace for 155-148 final
Great save Donovan
45 points wow!
Although the Clips scored 37.
HUNTER!!!!
@clippers might be the hardest game to get through this season as a viewer. 10:30 start time combined with an endless parade of Harden free throws. Barf.
SAM!
Good to see AC back in the booth!
Harden still gets away with his grift!
Mobley. Wow!
JARRETT ALLEN STEAL GET HIM A TOUCH!! DAMMIT TY GET HIM THE BALL
CAVS ARE BACK BABY LETS GOOOO LOCKED AND LOADED
The Calvetta Brothers floor show commercial is literally killing me.

The extended version rocks 😂
This sounds like a college game?
yeah kinda weird LOL
Mobley with his first dunk. Great feed Spida. Cavs with good energy here.
Golden turd gets one to drop.
I just got back from Buckethead and I’m ready for a CAVALANCHE!
The Harden grift in effect!
STRUS IS LOOSE!!!!!!!! LETS GOOOOOO
Strus is loose!
Yay or nay on mobley?
LOL. Just coming here to get this, Chris. You da man.
