Won a game on the road in a two-game set. Made adjustments between games and at halftime. Good stuff from the Cavs.

Didn’t watch the game, but want to say we were a little too early to write off these Cavs based off one loss to the Bucks where were competitive throughout.

This is a crazy win considering the circumstances. I’ll have to rewatch later

Huge win. Gives some legitimacy to that win streak. It wasn't sexy but it was gritty enough and it's the kind of bounce back you expect to call yourself a contender

You could tell the Bucks, and particularly Giannis, are use to getting a friendly whistle. He's very reliant on getting away with offensive fouls.

Both teams shot the same (pretty badly), we won on turnovers and actually drew more free throws on the road for a change.

The refs got in Giannis' head ... he often just passed out rather than trying to bully or hook his way in to a dunk. His back may be acting up.

Don took a brutal hit near the end, fingers crossed he's ok.

Uh oh, last time this happened he missed like a week or more with an "illness".

I suspect his "illness" was an illness... (something was spreading around the league)

I don't even understand the basis of why you think he, the doctors, and the team would lie about that.
