Live Thread: Cavs vs Pelicans
2019-01-05
Well we’ll see how tonight goes. For the Pels, MVP candidate Anthony Davis wl be suiting up which probably spells doom for the Cavs. I’ll let AC sum it up.
The Pelicans are led by Anthony Davis, who is having a career year,28 pts, 13 rebs, 2.5 balks

The guy actually balking? Nikola Mirotic, who’s out with an ankle injury. Out for the Cavs, Rodney Hood and the usual band of injured Cavs: Kevin Love and David Nwaba. Hopefully the return of Matthew Dellavedova gives the Cavs bench some juice against the Pels who are featuring a recently returned Elfrid Payton who dropped 25 the other night.
I hope some Delly magic can save the Cavs. Otherwise this could get ugly.
AMICO HOOPS SAYING —“GUT THE ROSTER “—-EVEN SEXTON / CEDI SHOULD BE TRADED ——–OPINIONS / THOUGHTS —————–HAVE BEEN A SUPPORTER OF YB ALL SESASON BUT MY SUPPORT IS WAIVERING ON HIM ……………DID WE THROW THE DART AND MISS ………………….IS IT ALL ON HIM OR DOES IT GO BACK TO INFERIOR COACHING ………………….TOO EARLY TO GIVE UP ON HIM ……………………………I CAN NOW REALLY SUPPORT LEBRON’S DECISION NOT TO RETURN TO THIS MESS—-HE REALIZED HOW MUCH OF A BURDEN IT WOULD BE ON HIM TO KEEP THIS FRANCHISE COMPETITIVE
When you’ve lost Amico…I wouldn’t trade Sexton or Cedi, anyone else should be available.
YES NATE THE TRUE HERO TONIGHT ——HAVE A BREW KETTLE ON ME —–AGREE THERE HAS TO BE CONSEQUENCES FOR NOT PLAYING THE RIGHT WAY / WITH ENERGY / REGARDLESS HOW MANY PLAYERS ARE HURT——-YOU DON’T PLAY WITH ENERGY / THE RIGHT WAY —–YOU SIT !!—–GET RID OF LONGINBARF NOW !!!!
Hats off to Nate. This team is tough to watch.
If some guys will not play D with energy, then they should sit. Period. Do mot care how many guys are hurt.
We should all chip in and buy Nate a gift. This is truly honorable fanhood on your part, Nate. All the best to you, may your commitment here bring in some good juju and send out some sort of positive energy into the cosmos that reverberates back to the Cavs and three years from now turns them into one of the greatest juggernaut dynasties of all time
Seconded.
Cavs are injured. We were not injured to start the year. Just woefully unprepared. That is coaching.
This team hates Collin Sexton
Need a reboot there, Nate!
LOL!
HANG IN THERE NATE —YOU ARE A BRAVE SOUL !!—
+1
Not ikpr ss d with McCaw so far. Should be cutting his teeth in the g league.
Davis baited Clarkson into that brick.
Jones with a great stretch here!
15-0 tun. Like 5 turnovers. Ridiculous
Stop barking, TT. You fouled him.
Three straight turnovers.
If you’re gonna foul, foul hard! Gah. Cedi.
I figured out who longabardi is! And I always though the little brother from Elf would be more successful.
Channing Frye gave great minutes that half with Nance and Thompson in foul trouble.
Yezus. How did jc not get a foul there!? I hate the NBA refs.
Colin sexton’s got to shoot like sub 30 on floaters.
DO YOU HEAR THAT SOUND……………………SOUNDS OF THE “WHEELS COMING OFF ” : (
Losing contact…right on cue
Argh. Someone stop the ball.
What was that Sexton shot?
Cavs doing a nice job getting to the line in the bonus.
Holiday with the Sushi chef headband.
Cavs have committed so many dumb fouls. That last one by cedi was another.
Nance has been looking peeved since the 5 minute mark of the 1st quarter. Think he knows the his foul record is becoming a problem.
Both were legit calls though. He has to do a better job of keeping his hands straight up and not reaching.
Sexton just farts around with the ball for too long doing nothing then throws it out to someone completely out of position to do anything effective. This happens 4-5 times a game.
Six guys out hurts. Love, Hood, Delly, Nwaba, Henson & Zizic.
TT. Didn’t need to foul there! Grr.
Clarkson feeling good myself a little too much in that shot put.
Still, we waste so many FBs. Get a damn layup.
Omg that’s a total foul on Frazier uncalled. JC makes up for it but cripes.
Nance and Thompson both picking up two fouls was just Dumb.
JC with a nice stretch and cavs moving the ball.
JC lookin warmed up!
Nice reverse, JC.
Cavs not being able to buy a call compounds their problems. But Collin didn’t sell that at all.
IS HOOD THE “2ND COMING ” OF KLOVE / CAN’T STAY HEALTHY —-GEEZ——DAVIS WILL GO FOR 30 / 15 OR PLUS —–PELS WIN 117–101 —-PROVE ME WRONG CAVS !!!!!!!!!!!!——————-QUESTION IS J BUNSON /. PICKED I BELIEVE IN 2ND ROUND BY THE MAVS GOING TO BE A BETTER NBA PLAYER THAN SEXTON ?
Sexton flying around not thinking. Yes he’s fast, but he could play a little slower and use a change of pace.
What’s the deal with Blossomgame?
Gah. Larry commits some dumb fouls.
I’ll take the tide pods over the Pels unis.
They are odd
Delly and Hood reportedly out
Dang. Didn’t really see it in the I jury report.
Elfrid Payton dropped 25?? Can he shoot all of a sudden?
There’s no way.
