Mitchell doesn't seem like a guy ready to run from this team.

This is what our offense look like with another threat along with Mitchell. That Mobley explosion set this win up as the defense now accounts for Mobley which opens up the floor.

Now there's only one thing left to do. Win the whole fucking thing!

Credit to JB.

Game plan was great. 3rd qtr ato was great. Went to TT. Went away from Niang when it wasn't working. Kept a 3rd & 4th qtr lineup in and resisted making changes (bringing back Okoro) when shit was working.

Backups ruined the 50% 3 point shooting tonight in the final minutes

First thing Mitchell does in his postgame interview is ignore the question that was asked and give credit to Evan Mobley.

That is why Donovan is a fucking leader and a guy you want to go to war with.

 

[2 For The Brew]

When the game started out, it felt like, oh shit, how bad are we going to lose. They really turned this around. And played their best game by this year.

There's just so much to feel good about this. They are learning to play with more poise, finally, and developing some resiliency as a unit.

This was definitely a growing up moment for this team.

Orlando was a perfect playoff opponent. Our boys had to fight like hell and overcome a lot to win that series. So we got punched in the mouth two nights ago - no worries, they came back tough tonight.

This team deserves the total support of the Cleveland fanbase.

 

[The Human Q-Tip]

That closing lineup was hilarious - 4 goons and Merrill, and I'm not sure any of them hit the rim.

Thompson
Niang
Morris
Jones
Merrill

Don't want to look past this series, but Boston is still obv a heavy favorite.


Assuming the move on, the Knicks could beat them.


Whoever comes out of the West will beat them.

 

[BiGZD]

GG, Thought they would get swept. JB lives another day

 

[Cavatt]

They shot 20% from three. Cavs played fine defense, but Boston also missed a lot of good looks from three. They are almost a 40% shooting team from three in the regular season. If the Cavs win more games in this series, they're going to be battles

I'll just say wrong because they did not get good looks from 3

 

[Pierre Pan]

Great team win ! LeVert and Mobley helping Donovan out big time! Shout out to JBB for keeping Niang on the bench in the 2nd half and designing a nice play out of a timeout and getting the ball inside to get Evan going early

 

[I'mWithDan]

We are only a week removed from contemplating firing everyone and stripping the team down for spare parts.

A week later it is 1-1 against Boston and we are headed home.

Sports are the best.

Series On!

 

[CavzAddict]

That one felt good. If we can get that kind of production all series, we can make this interesting.
