2018-19 Season Game #2 | Cleveland Cavaliers @ Minnesota Timberwolves | October 19th, 2018 @ 8:00 PM

Cedi didn't look like this last year. The improvement he made in the offseason is astounding.

Maybe, or perhaps it is simply playing time and trust. Racking up dnps and single digit mins does not progress a player.

For all the whining earlier in the thread this has been a fun game.

It's an ideal game. Cedi and Sexton showed flashes, team competed and got it to crunch time, won't hurt their draft pick.

Well done.

We had enough opportunities to win the game - and we lost. Either this is a master plan to tank or we are clueless with the team.

 

[daytripper]

Love is just so weak...

He looks like he belongs on that Uncle Drew team of geriatrics.

Well he did have about 59 rebounds so won't rag on him too hard..

Yeah, no. Look at his ballhandling, his shot, the passing. He wasn't doing this last year.

Uh....he was one of the originals. LOL!!

 

[OptimusPrime]

When you give up 130+, who the fuck can you expect to beat?

 

[tocov]

Love is having a near triple double, 20 rebounds game.
This is what we need from him this season. But we need the team to be much better on D. It's downright embarrassing at some points.

Well done.

It hugely important that meaningful minutes are played by Cedi and Sexton in the second half of games. Not just disinterested getting blown out junk basketball. It looked like it was head towards the latter in the second quarter so I was very pleased with how the second half went.

Very anxious to see this team compete against other .500 and below teams.

I'm sorry do I do that often? Can you point to me doing it some other time? Or do you just like to look stupid online for fun?

"stupid is as stupid does"

 

[Rich]

128 and then 131. Just...it never changes.

 

[Photon]

Officials are still trash, despite Cavs not being a contender. Stupid touch fouls are called while pushing and grabbing does nothing etc.

Also, Butler acting like he has a LeBron like career behind him, bunch of loosers.

 

[Norm]

NBA should implement a "10 point hot spot" for the last 30 seconds of the game.

Cedi didn't look like this last year. The improvement he made in the offseason is astounding.

Any coach would’ve been hardpressed to play him in the postseason after that performance against the Sixers late in the season.

 

[Jontibs]

Yeah, no. Look at his ballhandling, his shot, the passing. He wasn't doing this last year.

No doubt he has worked hard on his game but the opportunity helps. He just wasn't going to get the chance to handle the ball or play autonomously last year. There were even garbage time runs when he was basically watching the others, uninvolved.
