Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

[TooTall]

I feel like Mitchell doesn’t feel comfortable enough to take the reins when Garland is struggling. Don’t get me wrong, Garland played well overall, but down the stretch in the 4th he looked ROUGH. I think they’ll be fine. Just gotta find better ways to maximize the abilities of this team. Feel like Bickerstaff will do a good job adjusting to find what works best.

Keep it Defense first, like tonight. Flustered the Heat early and often and it lead to commanding the boards. It doesnt hurt to get scorching hot from deep either but Defense into Offense. We've got Love out for a minute and Rubio back in a couple weeks probably, that gives us two 5's that can go. Chemistry has to get better and it might be up to Mitchell to guarantee that it does.

I haven't watched a lick of the NBA in years, but I'm actually paying attention to these guys this season. Fun team to watch.

Refs tonight calling every travel LeBron and Ewing never got apparently

Donovan Mitchell, woo boy. What a performance.

Guy has takeover talent. And when he gets going he is unstoppable on nights like this.

He really does best when Allen is in there…they were feeding off each other like crazy last night. Also keeps Garland from going Sexton.

I didn't see the "give a shit" in LeBron that I did in years past...I think he's more or less mailed it in at this point.

Yea he definitely seems like he's mentally checked out of the game. Just robotically goes through the motions now without care.

Metric fuckton of good seats available in San Antonio tonight…Jesus, I remember when that was the hottest ticket in the league.

Not that anyone cares about this, but I'm stuck watching the Dallas feed for the game tonight. Their crew is awful. One of those crews that takes away from the game. We don't need to know that every call against the Cavs is good and every call for Cavs is bad. Shut up! My goodness! Complaining about fouls with fucking Luka on your team is like Patriots fans complaining about not winning the super bowl.

Got me some Cavs gear for Christmas. Fully on-board. Trying to go see a game in January. Never been. Eying the Bucks. Gotta see Giannis.

Understandably, my mind is elsewhere with the football event.

But Donovan Mitchell is having an all timer.

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

Yeah, that play off the missed free throw was ridiculous. And my emotion to it was nothing at all. This is dreadful.

In a way, I am happy for the fans at the game likely unaware of the events elsewhere.

In a vaccuum, this should be a celebrated accomplishment. A joyous night. I’m actually jealous.

Life is crazy. I’m at home and am witnessing both sides - duality of one life changing while life goes on happily elsewhere.

Gah
