Game 26: Bucks at Cavs - 12/20/24 - 6:30 - FDSWI/NBATV 

Post#1 » by MickeyDavis » Thu Dec 19, 2024 12:25 pm

We played them back to back early in the season, losing by 1 in Cleveland and 2 at home. Khris didn't play either one. Giannis didn't play the second game but Green had 21/6/1 (he didn't play the first one). Dame had 36. Dame had 41 in the first game.

First of a B2B (Washington at home Saturday). Khris won't play both but hopefully everyone else will. We don't have another B2B until mid January.

I'd love to keep the momentum going but this is a classic letdown game after winning the cup Tuesday night.

Go Bucks.

I think we win this and the letdown game happens to either Wizards, Bulls, or Nets

No reason to bounce off the Cup
For a team that is on the way up
Their purpose is clear
Being unCavalier
Means start fighting like dogs (not a pup)

Going 3-1 over these next 4 would be totally fine.

Pretty standard old man injury to have pop up every now and then. Shouldn't be an issue if he doesn't come back too early.

I should clarify not in the worse case scenario type of scared, but the nagging injury that lingers for a while type of scared.

It's from a bruise, not a strain at least.

Would be a nice game for Ryan Rollins' shoulder to magically be ok so we can give him some minutes again. Remember him?
