It’s either bad luck or Bickerstaff needs to key in on 3 pointing shooting defense. This team sucks at defending the 3. That’s on Bickerstaff. They could face the worst shooting team in the league…they would give up 20 3’s

Their tired legs showed in the 2H. They played awful tonight. So inconsistent shooting the 3 especially without Mitchell and Love. They need another outside shooter

Yeah, another shooter would be good.

Lowe just said earlier that Detroit is not bluffing.

Unprotected 1st round pick is the opening bid for Bogdanovic.

They honestly want to keep him.

This always happens to CLE on back to back’s. They fall apart in the 2H. When LeVert has an off game, it all depends on Garland with Rubio and Mitchell out.

They might have nice depth but the bench is pretty meh, just interchanging pieces that only fit in certain lineups. They probably stay put but they pieces will need to move at some point. Lopez, Osman, LeVert…all can go. Levert is the only one that is a 50-50. He can create his own shot but way too inconsistent and just an ok 3 pointer shooter

Rules out CLE

Was Allen out tonight? It doesn’t compute that people shoot threes so well vs Cavs when you guys have the rim protection you have. If it’s me, the benefit to having that is to get out on shooters not scared of drive by because you have mistake erasers behind it in Allen and Mobley.

And they should keep him, they aren’t as far away from competing as it might seem.

Need a healthy Cade and see what happens.

28-22 at the 50 game mark

Aim for 21-11 ish over the finam 32.

Might be good enough for the 5 seed but will definitely be good enough to avoid the play in

Wow until Eric Reid just mentioned it, had no idea that Miami is only 2 GB of HCA in round 1

I told everybody a couple of weeks ago that there are 6 teams that are going to be playing for those first round hca spots. Still so much basketball left but there’s a ton of bunching in the standings. How long are the Knicks gonna drop home games? Teams like the Heat will add a piece or two. Cavs will get Rubio and they may add through trade. Bucks and Nets are banged up. Tomorrow is never promised with Joel Embiid. Lots of basketball left.

Ugly fall for Anunoby

Meh, it's what young teams go through. It's a bigger jump from college defense to NBA defense than the jump on offense. Especially with the rules favoring the offense.

Good game in SF.
Dubs up 4 at the end of 3.
Kuminga has drained 4 from downtown in the 3rd qtr.
He had only hit 15 from 3 in the entire season prior to that.

Raptors ain't going away easily.
Dubs clinging to a 5 pt lead midway thru the 4th.

Raptors aren’t a bad team.

There record should be better.

Not sure what the disconnect is.
