If the Cavs get up big early, I wouldn't mind showcasing Korver a little. Let's get those trade offers flowing.

Good news: Nance is back. Bad news: TT is still starting so the Cavs still have to play 4 on 5 on offense.

Finally! We got the home opener! Very pumped for tonight’s matchup.

Opposing defenses ignore TT so thoroughly they should be called for illegal defense.

Our bench players continue to be scary bad defensively.

Cavs need to actually incorporate Nance into the offense. He's not TT. When his defender leaves to double Love, the need to have go-to plays for that.

Cavs are embarrassing on defense. You still need 7 footers nba modern BS

Why is Osman guarding Trae so much?

Carter at the 4 at 41? What timeline am I in?

Used to see Omari Spellman walking the halls at my high school; didn't even know he was in the league.

Worst team in the league folks. Soak it up....no idea how playoffs and this team could have gotten mentioned in the same sentence. That befuddles me. Worst team in the league. Write that down. Its like we didnt see what happen the first time lebron left.

There's no excuse for Trae Young getting all star treatment from the officials He used his off arm like six plays in a row. If I was George Hill, I would've broken it smacking it away. First Tatum and now Young three games into his rookie season. I have no idea what Lue is doing watching that. SMDH.

I don't understand why we signed Nwaba if we're just going to leave him on the bench while our defense is getting torched.

If you lose to the Hawks, at home, by double digits you definitely are in the running to be the worst team in the East and possibly the NBA.
I'll keep watching and hoping for improvement, but, yikes this is scary bad.

The frustrating thing is we're not. As a life-long Cavs fan, I've seen far less talented teams than this.

I dont see the talent I really dont, I mean a bunch of mismatch role players. Unathletic, average shooters, small at almost every position, no center, no shot blocker, isolation players on the wing and guard. Its the exact same situation as last time lebron left.

We'd just switch ours onto the other team's PG at the perimeter and then ask our PG to guard their center under the rim.

Trae Young is a beast. TT is still TT, he doesn't improve. Glad Cavs didn't over pay for Hood. Should move Clarkson to starting SG. Lue still sucks. Sexton needs to be let loose. Like Osman's energy.

We should just move Clarkson and Nance into the starting unit.

Leave it to our problematic defense early in the season to not only make Lebron ball fans consider this new system trash & worse to make Young look like he did before nobody was defending him in the first half of the college season...you can't give him any **** daylight,but if your in his grill and locked in he misses it every time. Switching is killing us right now.Eevn Bazemore looked like a 3 point specialist tonight. I think they said ATL beat their own franchise record in this game.
Time to continue the process of education,familiarization,communication and not the time to get down or quit.
Nwaba needs to be getting minutes to help defensively, and Hood needs to be more aggressive like he was for a short window.
Other observations; Osman had a terrible game overall, Clarkson continues to outperform expectations but still make dumb decisions defensively, overall there is not enough ball movement with the current rotations.
We played so bad overall in this game compared to our efforts against 2 playoff teams 1 of which is the likely Eastern Conference Champs, I am half inclined to think they are not in as good of shape as they looked to be for this style of play and it will take another month before they really start grinding consistently.
