2023-24 Season | Game #11 | Pistons @Cavs | Nov. 17, 2023 | 7:30 p.m.

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Mobley hit a freethrow line jumper and a half spin turnaround using the glass. I want to see more of that, with his length those are unguardable. Just needs to let it fly and be confident.

Rebounding is still an issue with this team. If it was a better team, 19 orebs wouldve won the game.

I still dont like how clunky the offense is. This is against detroit and cavs cant manufacture good looks. I want to see better screening to open up shooters. Garland needs to take that top of the key 3 when bigs sag. When he over penetrates it's a sure turnover. Shoot that off the dribble 3 DG!

Anyways, love the 2 game win streak. Baby steps.
Our movement started good, but we reverted to our old ways the longer the game went. It’s not a coincidence that our “shooters” shot better in the first half.
 
Emoni is not playing because they don't want to waste one of his 50 games on a minute, because he will be 8th man on our end of year rotation

Right?

Right
Not how it works, if he is available to play, he is one of the 50 games. He didnt play because they wanted Wade's defense.

Mobley also had a turn around 8 foot jumper off the glass against Stewart I believe. First game I saw Mobley show some range, i believe 3 shots outside the key, so a third of his scoring, plus 2 impressive plays with his footwork around the rim Throw in 5 assists and 11 boards and Mobley is showig improvement.
 
He will be off a 50/50 contract before Bates. Nothing against Bates at all, still think he can be a legit NBA player, but this kid CPJ can really fucking play, not for an undrafted rookie, but just fucking play period.
He hasn't really been scouted yet, but once he is, opposing teams will start going under picks and sagging off him. We'll see whether he has a counter. Also, he's not really running an offense (although in fairness, I'm often confused by what the Cavs are trying to do on offense). He's getting into the paint and either taking it to the rim or passing it back out. That's all good, but again, other teams aren't yet studying his scouting report.
