Cavs and Celtics on espn for anyone who has not seen the new look Cavs yet.

[Kblaze8855]

Just a heads up

[D-Wait]

Garland on fire in his 1st game back :bowdown:

[tontoz]

Xiao having trouble coping with the Cavs success with DMitch.

[Manny98]

This Cavs team different

[Manny98]

Shout out to Love for sticking with the Cavs through the whole rebuilding process instead of quitting and team hopping when things get tough :applause:

[tontoz]

Wow Garland coming back with a bang.

[Real Men Wear Green]

At the risk of exposing ignorance I am not sure why Vonleh isn't playing and vs Cleveland size the Cs could use him. He had liked serviceable so far. If he's completely in the doghouse or hurt the Cs need to bring in a big badly.

I'd like to see plays run through Mobley more. Mitchell's not the only one who should be scoring. At least Garland's carrying a good share of the offensive load tonight.

He kind of quit on the team for a stretch of games 2 seasons ago. But he had some mental issues as well IIRC.
Since last season he is really blossoming in that bench role. I hope he stays in Cleveland till he hangs it up.

You were such a die hard Lebron stan for a long time, like years and years. He won a chip/fmvp just a few years ago. You use to always shit on Kobe/Jordan to prop Bron up...so what happened? Feels like I only see talk shit about Bron now and try to stan KD/Kyrie for some reason?

[Wally450]

What a weird back and forth game. Its like each team completely shuts down for a couple minutes, then turns it back on.

[AlternativeAcc.]

Mitchell is another player that has easily surpassed Curry

I see Curry still living rent free ....

Damage control.

Mitchell no longer shackled to Toody. :bowdown:

One of the Bron guys hurt his feelings and he's been acting anti-LeBron ever since. :oldlol:

[SATAN]

Tatum. Holy shit. :bowdown:

[D-Wait]

this game :lol

[D-Wait]

Smart is the biggest bitch in this league. He should be fined for his ****ing flopping.

Luckily he made an awful offensive decision afterwards. That flop could have decided the game.

[Wally450]

I know its still early in the season, but the Celtics defense doesn't look as aggressive as last season.

[tontoz]

Good win :rockon:

[Real Men Wear Green]

It isn't. I don't know how they can replace Robert Williams but they need to find a way.

[ImKobe]

Tatum. Holy shit. :bowdown:

He's not THAT guy. 8/21 6 TO -16 in a 1-pt loss.

[SATAN]

He's not THAT guy. 8/21 6 TO -16 in a 1-pt loss.

I was reacting to the dunk. Retard.

[Real Men Wear Green]

You didn't see him tie the game in regulation and preserve the toe with a block. You just looked up stats and ignored what he did rebounding blocking shots and getting assists. You're typical M.O.

I missed the OT, care to cover that for me?

No you can look up the numbers just like you did the rest. Don't ask me to help with your bullshitting.

He's not THAT guy. Not yet.

[1987_Lakers]

Just like you thought Jimmy wasn't that guy in 2020 then you became his biggest fan last postseason. Hmmm, wonder why.

[Real Men Wear Green]

He's not THAT guy. Not yet.

What guy? The guy that made first team AllNBA and lead his team to the finals? What other guy are we talking about? He just had 26 points 10 boards 6 assists 4 blocks and it was his worst game of the season that you have been breathlessly waiting for to act as if this somehow proves he's not... what, exactly?

[ImKobe]

Just like you thought Jimmy wasn't that guy in 2020 then you became his biggest fan last postseason. Hmmm, wonder why.

He proved me wrong. Tatum hasn't yet.

[Round Mound]

Cool game. Just saw the last 10 minutes of the game. Cavs by 1 after overtime. Interesting team the Cavs this season.

[Kblaze8855]

Tatum has done more winning than most of the hall of fame. He was doing 26/10/5 in the playoffs going to the ecf at 21. He was in the finals at 24. What exactly proves you wrong?

It would take quite a fall off for his trajectory not to lead him to all time great status. He’s on a trajectory of at least like…Clyde Drexler level.

Butler last post-season played at a higher level than Tatum ever has. JT is legit and arguably top 10 so I'm not saying he's complete trash either.

A very good argument, yes.

So what are you saying? HOF caliber numbers and 8 playoff series wins at 24 isn’t enough for…what?

Guys in the hall of fame play 20 years and don’t win what he’s already won and many had better teams to do it on.

You say he has not proven you wrong. What would do it?

What level is he supposed to be on as a player that his current accomplishments don’t justify?

We gonna ignore jaylen brown is not that much worse than tatum?

[Kblaze8855]

Why wouldn’t I ignore It in a discussion that it has nothing to do with?

[Real Men Wear Green]

So? Brown being an excellent player doesn't mean Tatum isn't great. Teams are allowed to have two stars.

[Overdrive]

He's not THAT guy. 8/21 6 TO -16 in a 1-pt loss.

A guy called ImKobe hating on a statline like that - by a player who's a huge Kobe-fan himself aswell.

[Xiao Yao You]

Mitchell (25 points on 27 shots) and Garland (29 points on 20 shots) combined for nearly half of the Cavs’ shots and points Wednesday. They had eight of the team’s 11 3-pointers. For as capable as Evan Mobley, Jarrett Allen, Kevin Love and Caris LeVert have proved as scorers, the offense — and this team’s success — will flow through its two All-Star guards. “We have to involve other guys because we can’t give teams the opportunity to just load up and feel like the other guys aren’t threats,” Cavs coach J.B. Bickerstaff said. (https://theathletic.com/3758265/2022/11/03/lloyd-cavs-donovan-mitchell-darius-garland/) “But the ball is in their hands to start.”

the ever efficient Mitchell. Maybe the trolls better start another thread!

Yeah, Mitchells TS of 61% this season really sucks.

[Real Men Wear Green]

To be fair last time they played he killed the Celtics. No one dominates all the time.
