Amazed we won without Garland.

Jarret Allen isn’t winning you anything. Garland won’t show up in the playoffs. Mobley is a glorified dunk man. Mitchell has some experience but is a liability on defense. To me, the Cavs are a treadmill team.

Was only able to catch the second half tonight. I've been real critical, so I'll give some credit.
The team played like a winner. The last few minutes they played great... went and made it happen.
The defense was very good and the offense had just enough with everyone contributing. Love had a real nice stretch where he put the team on his back and Okoro made some big free throws.

I heard the announcers say Cedi started at point and played well. But when down two, the Cavs gave him the shot again and his spin move wasn't even close to good enough.
He's a decent all around player and he can do a little bit of everything, but I don't think he's good enough at any one thing. The Cavs are certainly asking too much of him at times lately needing him to be the man with a lot of scoring injured... however, if there's as much interest as reported, with Charlotte, Milwaukee, San Antonio and Dallas all interested..
It might be sad to see him go, but he's probably peaked after five seasons. I wonder what he could fetch as most of those teams aren't very deep or contenders.
Kyrie most of the time when he shoots starts with the ball and then dribbles a while then shoots. -statistical analysis from a 'longtime' Cavs fan (June 2017)

They were on the road without Zion and Ingram, so that definitely makes it less amazing.
