Its really nice to not give up when things go sour. Bucks took a 16 point lead early in the 1st off some hot shooting.
Cavs were looking good, but missing shots. Cavs bring it all the way to down 1 at the half (at one point Cavs were up 6 late in the 2nd Q).

Okoro with his first really good minutes of the season. CPJ wasn't bad but sort of invisible in his first minutes in a competitive game.

What an ending! Is this the best start to a season since 1976?

Whatever way the result went today I was excited to say this was our best game of the season. Showed lots of composure to get back after the Bucks blew us away in the 1st. I loved how they played Lillard and Giannis even if they had huge nights.
This was really a great team win as well. First game we've gotten to see down the stretch w Kenny and I liked a lot of the play decisions, but some of the player decisions were iffy haha. Doesn't matter we won the game.

Mitchell was high man with 35.5 minutes. Kenny stuck with a 10 man rotation giving CPJ minutes. Second night of a back to back, GA and DL red hot, still no desperation, no whining about a lack of foul calls while the other team scores on us, and the team is still rewarded with the win.

Idk how much i like this matchup for the Cavs. Dame and Giannis looked comfortable and got whatever they wanted.

To be fair, Dame was hitting everything. I don't see him doing that on a regular basis.

This team is genuinely enjoyable to watch. The winning is certainly part of it, but the offense is more dynamic. It seems like Mitchell and Garland are developing a little synergy.

Yeah, i watched most of the game. He was hitting crazy shots but Cavs gotta try to slow him down, if they want to keep the streak alive on Monday.
Giannias in transition is just unstoppable too, it's wild. I like Wade as a defender but he seemed to be having a difficult time with that matchup, in the half court.

Yeah but in all fairness, Wade actually had some really good defensive possessions against Giannis too. To be able to have additional defenders for Giannis will benefit us greatly if we’re to meet them in the playoffs.

We'll be super lucky if that turns out to be a problem.
We're already dealing with major injuries to Bates and Strus and hopefully just minor ones to Tyson and LeVert.
If we somehow were so lucky, KA has mentioned possibly expanding the rotation to 11, or he could simply use his bench situationally. I know we're not used to seeing a coach actually coach, but I expect Kenny can handle that. Also, we could borrow a page from the Guardians and just give the entire roster some load management by giving each guy a day off on rotation.
