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.

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

j/c...

Evan Mobley with five 3PT and 23 points in the first quarter.

WoW!!

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.

He had a beast of a game, to be sure.

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.

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


For Ehe Land!

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.

Merry Christmas! Box seats are a thriller. Hope you see a great game and enjoy it.

Thanks so much! It was amazing! The Hawks were down for most of the game but had a come from behind 50 point 4th quarter win! Thriller of an ending! That was fun!

And Happy Holidays to you.

Sounds like you got your money's worth. A 50 point 4th! En fuego and what a memory! Hawks get it done for their fans.

WOW That's an insane comeback! I watched the 4th Q highlights, that long 3 by Trae Young for the tie sounded like it rattled the rafters!

Yeah the crowd was electric! It was rocking in that arena! I thought the game was over when we were so far behind, but they just shifted into a new gear and couldn't miss! It was crazy fun being there.

Nice win by the Cavs, going into Denver and handling the Nuggets rather easily.

putting on pretty good show in GS tonight. I really think Niang and Strus provide absolutely nothing.. they have to be upgrade. This team has talent everywhere else.

Nice win for the Cavs tonight. (yeah, I know there is still 30 or so seconds left)

*Yawn* Another double digit win for the Cavaliers.

C.W.A.






(Cavs win again, for those who don't know)

Nice unbeten rod trip. 4 at home coming up.

Just to add:

Cavs now 30-4.

Mobley with another huge game tonight.

big couple weeks coming up for the Cavs, Weds game the barometer game of the season playing the Thunder, then got them again a week after a game against houston. Pacers back to back. We will get a good idea where we are just in time for the trade deadline.

Really looking forward to the game vs. OKC on Wednesday. Nationally televised on ESPN as well.

me too - OKC is very fun to watch too

Thanks for posting. Glad to see I can finally watch a game as this one is on ESPN.

Epic game. Got to see it in my market for once. God, the Cavs are the anti Browns. Just fun and light, all camaraderie and mutual support. Just all seem like good dudes. It’ll be very interesting to see how things change in a week.

Cavs beat Thunder 129-122!
