Hope the 4 former Cavs players don't have good games tn, lol

The Donovan Mitchell offensive foul on his three was insane lol. Horton-Tucker ran into him and under and then Mitchell's arm came down as normal and hit his head. Foul on Mitchell lmao.

Really wish the Cavs could find a wing like this Finnish guy.

I couldn’t be more thrilled and proud of how we played tonight. I know the Jazz haven’t been as good as they were to start the season, but this is very encouraging to see. Good start to a brutal four game stretch.

Pretty rare for JB.

But it seems the team understood the assignment to get the dub vs spyda's old squad.

No doubt. Just being cheeky. Donovan Mitchell is the 2nd best Cavs player in the last 25 years. More than happy with the deal.

The Cavs were firing on all cylinders, not much more to say than that. Can we keep getting production out of Kevin, Cedi, and Isaac? Would be amazing.

Lauri was terrific, but we "turned his water off" in the second half and I do believe that was primarily because Isaac was on him.

I still doubt we would have unlocked him as much as the Jazz have by featuring him, they even mentioned during the broadcast that the Jazz added some plays that the Finnish National team were running - and I just have a hard time imagining JBB doing anything other than sitting Lauri in the corner.

One of the big improvements for Lauri has been his consistency - his confidence must be sky high, plus it's not like he's started chucking or forcing things.

Congrats to him, but hard not to like what we got in the trade ... Donovan was like - dudes don't even try - unless you want to see me raining 3's on you all game.

With the win, the Cavs are #1 in Net Rating and still #1 in Def Rating.

I do not believe we will continue to shoot 57.7% from 3, but it was a refreshing change of pace to make some for once.

After a fast start, we're shooting just 33% on 3's in December ... so if you're a fan of "reversion to the mean" ... you'd say were due for some hot shooting games.

And if you prefer reasons, well, Garland, Love, and Osman all went cold, Wade has been out, and Love missed games as well dealing with the thumb fracture.
