Preseason Game 2 10/8/15 Cavs @ Philadelphia FSOH and NBATV 7:00 PM

[Helium filament]

Figured we needed a thread for the game tonight.


Preview from Cavs.com:
The Wine and Gold play their second preseason game in as many nights as they travel to the City of Brotherly Love to take on the Philadelphia 76ers. Tipoff is at 7:00 p.m. ET.

The Cavaliers dropped their 2015 preseason opener last night 98-96 to the Atlanta Hawks in front of a packed house at the Cintas Center in Cincinnati, OH. The Cavs dished out 28 assists on 35 made field goals. J.R. Smith tallied a team-high 15 points on 6-10 (.600) shooting from the field, including 3-5 (.600) from long range, four rebounds, four assists, one steal and two blocks in 22 minutes of action.

Philadelphia (0-1) traveled to the nation's capital on Tuesday for their preseason opener against the Washington Wizards. Sixers forward Nerlens Noel and point guard Isaiah Canaan each scored 13 points as the Washington handed Philadelphia a 129-95 loss.

So we're probably going to see:

PG: Mo
SG: Delly
SF: Jones
PF: Jefferson
C: Varejao

And then the bench goons are Kaun, Harris, Cook, Cunningham, Daye, etc.

It's the Sixers, so we still stand a chance.

Should be a pretty even game.

 

[MoGottiFor3]

Welp, looks like I'm watching TNF & the MLB playoffs instead.

 

[Rich]

I'm pretty hyped to see Varejao in a back to back game. I know he didn't play many minutes last night, so I can't wait.

 

[All4One1ForAll]

Yeah I have a midterm tomorrow, so in a way I'm kind of glad they're all sitting out. Now I'm less likely to be distracted.

Hey, does anybody have a good stream and can pm me?
I checked my go-to sites in terms of streams, but all streams are lagging extremely :-(

edit: found an average stream which is working decently right now... pm me, if interested

 

[gratefuldead]

wonder how kaun will defend oak

 

[Ob1]

any good streams?

 

[tocov]

Philly's D is fucking atrocious.
Are they planning to tank another season?

 

[Thelorn]

Okafor doesn't pass the ball at all once he gets it, on the other end Cavs going at him everytime for easy buckets.

Not sure why 76ers use Okafor in the paint on defense, Noel at PF keeps getting pulled out the box making his shot blocking non factor.

 

[Sebastian]

AV is moving around very well out there. Looks great.

Nice to see.

 

[Rich]

I'm gonna beat this dead horse, but Tristan Thompson better pray to the gods old and new that Varejao doesn't hold up.

 

[CPK]

Seriously. Can we cryo freeze Andy for the playoffs? He would be so huge for us.

 

[tocov]

AV is our new PG.
