Faptors are tough on for a first game. They play so hyper-aggressive that it's probably tricky to get into the flow right of the bat. When the cavs have Garland and Rubio integrated, Im pretty confident that they'll kick Faptor ass.

JBB ain't it. It fucking sucks. I have a lot to say. Really bad offensive calling and matchups.

Hope Garland is okay. Mitchell is a baller.

Diakite needs to soak up the minutes of Okorhe would

This would of been the perfect game for him.

 

[Kiddo]

Honestly think the Cavs are much, much better than Toronto.

Yes, even if DG is same as last year we’re better than them.

That's the big one. Hoping we get some good news on Garland soon.

This should’ve been a cavs win but when you have to play 5 on 8 is hard

I would like to include Okoro instead of Lauri in that Mitchell trade, but just wasn`t possible. At least we can trade Okoro for sack of balls I think, because guy is afraid of shooting the ball,who needs him?

Okoro sucks so bad even the obviously tanking Jazz did not want him. Would love to have Ochai here instead of him rotting in that Utah bench.

I'm done being fooled by Okoro and his triple zero production.

 

[Sir'Dom Pointer]

Yeah... Cavs are a tier above Toronto. We played at our worst. Ball wasn't moving. We set bad screens and just really disappointing offensive sets all around.

I still think that LeVert should not start. We need Size on the wing. We are too weak on the boards. And too often the Raptors had size mismatch and that should be the other way. We can't switch effectively running that lineup and he doesn't provide enough catch and shoot abilities to offset it.

He got benched right after that air ball I wonder what his arch was lmaoo

 

[HammerGold]

This team needs a quality starter at the 3. Lavert is like a 15 minute guy off the bench

He can have that 45 degree perfect arc but if its short it does not really matter. LOL

 

[benchplayer]

The cavs need someone like Jr smith or Ron artist, someone who's not afraid to throw an elbow when teams play dirty.

Looked like a JBB coached team at the end. Come out of a timeout and they get the ball in to a guy that is completely uncovered. Then, at the end they get a dunk from full court in 3 seconds.

Levert and Okoro are already on my nerves one game in. If they don’t suck, we should be good if not really good, but they both looked like trash again.

Mobley looked eerily as awkward and clumsy on offense as he did last year. It’s one game, but I was hoping to see some more polish.

Raptors are a tough matchup because they get physical and expose our lack of skill in a lot of areas on offense. That being said, it should have been a comfortable W if Garland doesn’t get his eye gouged out.

We are going to have to underperform under JBB for a year, before we look for our coach of the future.
