Okoro is out for tonight's contest.

These games are always a treat (even tho we've dropped the past few)

I've been liking the plays with Allen in the middle and shooters running off of him. I do wish Allen were better at attacking from that position and it would probably work better with Mobley in that position.

Then, its followed up with a "movement" play that is much more predictable. Double screens for Strus running through the paint for a movement three while the ballhandler is just staring at the off-ball movement until he can make the pass.

The defense has been legitemately great. Our crew is still not perfect guarding Steph, Klay, and the Warrior's offensive threes (but who is?) and they are hitting.

I've actually liked the offense today, but nothing is going down. Its crazy how much Mitchell is anchoring our offense. It did not fully feel like this last year even with our potent his offense was.

I will bitch my brains out over the trade… but man, Mitchell is having himself a season so far.

Garland looks a lot less rusty compared to Friday. I've loved his aggressiveness at the rim and we are seeing some classic Garland assists while penetrating the paint

The regular season has never been a question mark for him.

You’re right. If Mitchell’s play translates to the postseason… I would be all for keeping him around. But honestly… he hasn’t been great in the playoffs since the bubble.

It’s weird that we’re up by ten with less than four minutes left and yet I’m not comfortable with this lead at all.

Great win. Really, really great win and they badly needed this.

We needed this win and it was against a team we've struggled with in this new iteration of the Cavs.

Lots of players showed out today, but want to give a shoutout to Allen and Garland specifically who looked like themselves and contributed on both ends.

That's the Cavs experience (and watching the Warriors against the Cavs for so long)

Good win against a formidable opponent. Nice to get some momentum going into the West Coast road trip.

Edit: but Sunday Night Football is on so gotta run lol

Evan Mobley isn’t getting enough credit for his work on the glass this season. He’s actually been really great so far at rebounding, and I think his lack of offensive progression is overshadowing that.

Personally, I've been waiting to see how we rebound at full strength. The Warriors announcers felt like it was a battle of giants .vs. midgets, which I'm not sure I agree with but it was nice to hear.

TT has been surprisingly solid, and Jarrett just makes everything click.

Garland would have had a pretty awful game if he wasn't finding ways to draw fouls. Hopefully he wasn't just compensating for a bad shooting night and will continue to attack defenders. He led the team with a +15 inspite of committing 6 turnovers.
