The game has been enjoyable thus far. Tobias is still struggling, but the rotation has improved significantly. Nurse made early substitutions for Tobias and Reed, both of whom had been struggling in recent games. He then inserted KJ and Bamba. Tobias and Reed then played more like placeholder starters rather, with Bamba notably performing much better. While Bamba had some questionable moments on offense, his defensive efforts were commendable, challenging multiple shots at the rim. The offense also saw improvement by involving Oubre and Tobias more, rather than solely relying on Maxey and Hield. Additionally, Melton's activity on both ends of the court was noteworthy, and Council received significant playing time early on.

Tobias has been straight trash for like a month now.

[Mik317]

Tobias used to eat in the non Biid games

Can’t even do that right now

Nah Tobias is moving like something is off

[Bum Adebayo]

Winning despite Tobias and Maxey sucking badly.

Our bench has been SOLID!

Nurse has benched him for long stretches in both of these games too

25 bench points tonight so far.

Cam Payne has been awesome tonight. There's definitely a place for him on this team. He's a scorer and we need that.

Winning despite Tobias and Maxey sucking badly.

Tobi is sucking but I think Maxey is pacing for this second half.

His misses on threes have been way off, and his mid-range shots have consistently fallen short.

[Bum Adebayo]

He sucks.

The Cavs are struggling to score, especially with our defensive scheme to match up lengthy wings against their guards, making it difficult for Garland and Levert to score. They rely heavily on running Struss off screens and utilizing the Garland-Allen pick-and-roll, while also trying to score in transition whenever possible. Additionally, their bench scoring is thin.

[76ciology]

We need to limit their transition offense, as that's where they are attempting to generate offense to match up with ours. We’d have a really good chance to win if we get that done

[76ciology]

Bamba has deterred A LOT of shots

[ExplosionsInDaSky]

So done with Harris.
