well they played even worse today.. the team has serious issues right now, they look alot like last years team and nothing of the team that won 15 in a row. We have some guys on this team that need to have their minutes taken away. Hate to say it but I think we have to separate Mobley and Allen, they are too big of a liability together. Okoro needs to have his minutes yanked for Tyson, Strus when he comes back should take Niangs spot and Niang should just be released. We are giving up the 3 ball at an alarming rate.
Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday. -John Wayne

I was disgusted by the number of 3's we tried, and how we kept throwing them up despite missing them. Niang loves 'em, and missed plenty last night just like the previous night again. Bet we missed about 30, got almost no rebounds on those, and gave up most of our paint efforts. We have no 3 defense, loaf back, just not very intense.
Boston will feast. Some coaching needs to happen, sooner, and some folks should not be enjoying as many non-productive minutes as they are getting,

Cavs win over Boston 115-111. Cavs made it a free throw shooting contest when up by 4 with 15 seconds left. The inbound play to Niang made my heart skip but he made both free throws

That was better than the last two losses. Don't expect to win every game, but how we have lost is lazy and lousy. Beating Boston is huge; welcome back (finally!) DM! And we did challenge the arc better IMO. No such thing as bad wins.

Boston was missing 2 starters, Mobley and Allen just can't coexist on this team, I'm confident of that the more the season has gone on, they both disappear in pressure games. Okoro should not be starting, it was like we were playing without 3 starters, bulk of scoring coming from DM and DG, same as last year. I thought we got away from that finally.. But apparently not. I'm hoping we get back to playing team ball. We haven't been doing that the last 4-6 games

Another game. Another win. Caris LeVert had himself a game.

great game last night - great win

 Mobley finished with 41 points, 6-8 3PT, 10 rebounds and 3 blocks. A lesson in allowing really young players to develop, especially in the NBA, and not declaring them busts.

when this team is clicking, they are beating anyone.. If we could get this mobley every game..we would be impossible to defend. Garland and Mitchell didn't really have to do much. What was nice is when things got a little too close for comfort, they stepped up and got that distance for us again. This is a fun team to root for

Nice win for the Cavaliers tonight over a recently much improved Bucks team. The game was really never in question.
Also nice to see Strus back in action.

They beat a good team and made it look easy.
I am a casual fan at best but when I have watched them play this year.
It has been fun. They seem very balanced and play a good all around game.
The NBA looks different to me than in the past. This is the first regular season where I have watched games in a long time.
Bombs away. In general the 3 point game is the standard.

Tough night, but put up a win against a physically bigger team that shot well and rebounded, too.

This is the first time in a long while that I am enjoying basketball.
It seems like there are times in the game where the Cavs just take over.
They will go on a run and play outstanding basketball on both ends. It helps when you have two active big men.
Their core is really good and the other pieces fit.
I might have to get an NBA pass something I have never done.

It's Christmas and the Cavs have the best record in the NBA?
I definitely have worse things to complain about.

I'm going to a Hawks game on Thursday. I have box seats. Can't wait. Hawks bit by the injury bug this year. Hopefully everybody plays.
