OKC fan here lol
Yall talked a whole lot last week there huh 😆😂⛈️💙💪 take the L
Yall take it and like it, too
The difference is OKC have a legit superstar period
The Cavs are good, but they are not a championship team. They should consider trading Okoro, Merrill, Niang, and whoever else on the bench to improve their roster if they can. They should look into acquiring Zach Levine, Malik Monk, or a player in that mold who can light it up.
Sorry Cavs fans but y’all ain’t winning shit, y’all don’t have a number 1, a legit superstar that you have to have in the playoffs and don’t even say Mitchell because he’s not him! When has Shai ever got shut completely down, twice! Not never😂😂
Coach threw in the towel! Go down fighting for crying out loud !! Boo
Mitchell can’t score against them. Also the refs letting okc play super physical. Got away with some fouls early on.
Got smoked right out of the gate.
It’s very disappointing the way the Cavs handled tonight‘s game instead of pounding the ball down low to Evan Mobley & Jarrett Allen they took a ton of 3’s and turned the ball over a lot! If we see OKC in the NBA Finals we’ll have our hands full! SGA can literally score at will!
GG Cavs. It’s a season series split. 1-1 is a pretty good outcome for both of our teams 🍻
Niang for Lavine and throw in Lavert.
Are they starting to believe their notices? You can never believe that. SHAMEFUL!
Mikey should be a coach 😂
They do this every year since before Mitchell got here they start fast or get hot and as soon at the rest of the league nationally pays them attention they shitt the bed and level off Mitchell now wants to be the man and shoot more like he did against Indiana or Garland goes in extra because he is trying to put in his all star campaign and goes back to old Darius Garland instead of pounding it inside and moving the ball
As much as it pains me – why not play Tyson more in place on Okoro (my guy) to get him amped up for end of season play? Decent defender but needs to work on his shot. But why not??
Also maybe put Strus in the starting line up to be able to use Dean off the bench. ……..not happy with strus at all so far this season……….
little boys going to get beat up by men …
Tonight wasn't great but we got where we are (34-6) because we are a great team. Sometimes there's difficult match ups or you have games where the ball doesn't go down. Look at our record people! There's still a lot of season left!
We have a lot of talent and we are going to go far.
The raptors just beat the celtics! They had only won 9 games all season and beat the celtics! I don't hear anyone freaking out about that??
Just chill and enjoy the ride – cuz it ain't over!!!! They are just fine.
These are our boys and this is OUR team!! ❤️🏀
LET'S GO CAVS!!!!!!
