He looked like Isaac Okoro with a 3-point shot.Lamar Stevens may turn out to be a very solid role player. Probably his best game of the year
Makkanen was guarding Herro for a lot of timeHe looked like Isaac Okoro with a 3-point shot.
Herro had 15 in the first half, 6 in the second. He played 37 minutes. It looked like he wore down in the second half having to carry the offense. He was out for Monday's game with "fatigue" and was listed as questionable for the Cavs game.
I noticed the Cavs switched up who was guarding him. Some of the time it was Stevens, other times it was Okoro or one of the bigs. It's like the Cavs kept putting a fresh body on him every few minutes. He was missing shots in the second half (3-for-12) and was a non-factor with only 6 points.
Morris may not be back this season I thought i heardThe Cavs play Miami in Cleveland in 11 days. Adebayo will be out but I assume they will have Butler back and probably Markieff Morris. That should be a good one as the Heat will be looking for payback, especially Duncan Robinson, who was scoreless and had his 69-game streak of hitting a 3-pointer snapped.
All well and good. We won last night. I don’t care about injuries they have. We have had more than our share as you knowMorris may not be back this season I thought i heard
You are supposed to beat up on bad teams, hurt teams, when you are healthy. This team does that - basically without fail. If you are playing a hurt team and win by 26 on the road, that's about as good as you can ask for. Unless you wanted a 40-point win.All well and good. We won last night.

The Cavs are also famous for inexplicably losing to short-handed teams, including those with incapacitated players stretched out on the bench.You are supposed to beat up on bad teams, hurt teams, when you are healthy.

They even beat some healthy teams pretty handily (Dallas).
Even in the Lebron years the Cavs didn't handle bad teams as well as the talent suggested they should.The Cavs are also famous for inexplicably losing to short-handed teams, including those with incapacitated players stretched out on the bench.

I did touch myself within that next hour. Thanks @Sir'Dom PointerI'm probably going to touch myself to this post sometime in the next hour. Thank you.
Almost certainly not this season ... but … how awesome would it be if we came out of the East and we got to face … the Lakers? Everybody in the universe who wasn’t a Lakers fan would be totally behind us. I was part of a Cleveland playoff crowd that booed the hell out of John Havlicek - but if we were facing THAT guy … damn.East runs through Cleveland
