I'm sure the Cavs were hoping to get that game #2 win to give the 3 time to heal. They figured they could unleash Mitchell knowing he'd have all this time to recover between games.
Sounds like all 3 will try to play, the question is will they help or will they hurt?
And has Mitchell recovered from whatever he tweaked or do we have a 4th problem?
Here's hoping Kenny is proactive and creative in ways JBB was not.

Hunter's thumb is allegedly less swollen, so that's good but idk if it means he'll go or not. Or if he does, if he just has to play decoy.JonFromVA wrote:JujitsuFlip wrote:https://www.cleveland.com/cavs/2025/05/cavs-provide-injury-updates-on-darius-garland-deandre-hunter-and-evan-mobley-ahead-of-game-3.html

Garland i think wants to play and it sounds like Kenny was the one holding him out the first 2 games, but this article kind of makes it seem like tonight may be up to Garland.
Mobley can't run so outside of maybe just going out there to stand under the hoop for a possession sounds like Cavs will be 4 on 5 if he has to play.
Mitchell isn't on the injury report but we all know that calf is bothering him, hopefully the extra day of rest helps. He will probably have to take 30 shots again for the 3rd game in a row.

Idk how to embed tweets from the app but the video in the article shows all 3 guys getting shots up.
Doesn't mean they will play but maybe getting closer. At least testing the injuries out.

Shams reported on that Pat McAfee show that he thinks all 3 guys will play tonight. How effective they are is a different story.

All 3 guys are going through pregame warm-up.
Edit: Shams just said on ESPN all 3 will be active for tonight.

Oddly, didn’t feel like our backs were against the wall in this one. We kinda just played our game and won?
Excited for Sunday. Want to make this a series by going to 2-2

I'd love that but you know they will adjust to the zone, plus Garland tweaked his toe so who knows how effective he'll be.ijspeelman wrote:Oddly, didn’t feel like our backs were against the wall in this one. We kinda just played our game and won?

I'm happy we won, but I'm legit concerned about Carlisle and Zarba.

I feel like Hunter and Mathurin are going to fight before this series is over.

I had never watched this guy play prior to this series, he's up there with Draymond, Dillion Brooks, and Mo Wagner for me.

I am officially behind enemy lines, fellas!
I did think about it, the last NBA game i went to was October 2014 Pacers vs Cavs at Xavier University in Cincinnati.
Hoping to bring a win back with me tonight.
