Having Bambry and Johnson on the floor at the same time should be crime against Nets

That timeout was needed.

A bit worrying that KD looks exhausted.

Solid defense.

Kudos to Nash for the 2nd half adjustments. This is the kind of coaching we need.

We could have ended this a lot cleaner but this was a good team we beat tonight.

Jarrett Allen is an all star. 20 puts 15 rebs, but when Nash went to the bigger line up that narrowed the gap

Good road win against a feisty, young team. After sleepwalking through 3 quarters, it's good to see the team finally find their backbone to regain control of the game and wrestle what I hope is a character-building win for them.

Another great come from behind win against a good team. Our guys are stepping up in crucial moments. Great to see Cam get some confidence building playing time, he really shined tonight.

Big Jay .....The man is really coming into his own. He is just getting better and better. I'm glad to see the fans in Cleveland like him. I hope he gets an all star nod...He really deserves it.

Chemistry building type of win tonight. Cam earned a spot from the bench and Iam glad the interviewer brought that up with Durant. I can already see the haters saying the Cavs are G-leaguers but that is BS. They are a solid team and left everything on the floor this game. Great win!!!

Big win; we didn't look like ourselves in the first half but we turned it around second half and that's what great teams do. Patty, LMA, Cam, JJ all played great games and the bench came up big. KD was off for a KD type game but came in clutch and the Cavs defended him tightly because they know he is "the" offense here. Good job on the team for stepping up.

KD and LMA is so clutch ! Those 2 together are dynamic. Again, everyone chipped in on this one. Cam played as good as a game as he could and showed promise. He was locking dudes down, didn't know he could be that good defensively so quick. And he made some timely buckets A+++

I didn't realize how much of a beast Allen is in the paint, I guess i forgot . Maybe because he's the opps now I can see how he effects the game. Garland was just throwing everything up lol. These are the wins we should be getting, beating up on bad or mediocre teams not losing to them.

Great gutty win. 2 games in a row we fought back from a double digit lead and poor shooting to get the "W". Cavs played hard and their crowd was really into it. They also had a ton of back breaking threes when we were cutting into leads to push it back up to 3 possessions. Gutting through that showed character. This is another game we would have lost last year... bringing in tough minded players like Bembry and Johnson has really changed the teams DNA. My thoughts...

1) James Johnson was phenominal. He helped turn this game for us. They would have outrebounded us by at 10 more if it wasnt for him fighting and holding off their bigs. he didnt rack up a ton of rebounds but he helped us rebound as a team and had a few late in traffic that were huge. Outside of missing both FTs on a trip in the 4th, he was awesome. He would have sealed the game early if the refs didnt blow an obvious foul

2) I thought harden played a really great game. They were overplaying to keep him from driving and showing help above the FT line extended. instead of forcing stuff he just picked them apart with passes. tons of easy looks and if not for allens rim protection he probably would have had 4-5 more assists easy. Also thought he played well on D.

3) Cam Thomas played a really solid game. I thought his shot selection was great. no YOLO stuff. played within the game. If anything I thought he passed up a couple shots he should have let fly. 2 of his baskets were key on the run where we finally erased their lead. he is playing with confidence. not sure where his minutes come from when Harris/Brown are back but Nash should give him some burn until then for sure.

4) KD isnt right. i dont care what he or nash says. it may not be a big deal or longterm bad, but he isnt the same guy before hurting his shoulder on those jumpers. His D was great tonight. several blocks on bigs. good D when switched on Garland.

5) LMA/Mills have been a godsend. they are a lock for 30 combined points on elite efficiency. LMA had some huge buckets. Mills some super clutch threes late. If we had these dudes last year in the playoffs we beat milwaukee even with the injuries.

6) Bembry is a G. He digs in, plays crazy hard. love that dude.

huh?

-Our bench is #1 in threes, #4 in efficinecy, #5 in +/- and #6 in scoring
-We are off to the best start in franchise History

but we are supposed to fire someone because a late pick rookie isnt cracking the rotation of a team with a ton of vet studs? He is supposed to change his bench rotations when we have had one of the better benches? Look id love nash fired but there was good reaosn Cam wasnt playing. he has his shot now with injuries making minutes available. he needs to capitilize on that like he did tonight.

He's competing defensively. He got lost a few times on the switches but nothing egregious

He needs to play. We aren't back in this game if he doesn't go on that little mini rip in the 3rd

That's my point. He could have been slow to pick up the defensive scheme. He can't be given minutes if he's a defensive liability. He's not tonight. That doesn't mean he wouldn't have been a liability earlier in the season.


Until Harris injury he was also behind Mills on the bench. If he can prove he can be an avg or better three point shooter it will help his case. its hard to play him over Bembry if shoots threes below average. He will get his opportunities. tonight was a great showing for him.
