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.

I'm glad they are. It looks like the Simmons/Allen incident pissed off the Cavaliers.

Nice win, and a night where Milwaukee and New York both lose too.

Well, that’s exactly what happened here. Cavs went on a 21-0 run after this incident.

I was glad we didn't take our foot of the gas after that. Also, it was kind of hilarious watching Niang track Simmons whenever the two of them were on the floor together.
I wonder how much of the Nets' chippyness was due to the fact that there are players on that roster who were pissed they were still on the roster after the deadline.

Well, Ben Simmons was the instigator and who knows what's going on in his head. Maybe he was hoping he'd get suspended for the rest of the reason.
