So far, it looks like the Cavs aren't coming out rusty. That's trouble for the Hawks.

Where is my friend @Demonjoe93

2 fouls on Kyrie. Atlanta need to go right at him when he returns to try and pickup a quick 3rd foul

 

[bksballer89]

Horford and Milsap 1-9.....Unacceptable

 

[bksballer89]

One thing about Atlanta is that Cleveland won't be able to get everything they want on offense as they did vs Detroit

Bazemore has come a long way from where he started. Dude should get paid in the off-season.

Agreed. They need to get Kyrie out of the game and continually attack him. At worst it tires him out on the defensive end.

I remember when he was best known for ridiculous dancing on the Warriors bench

Blame him for your hatred of the Warriors celebrations. He started it. LOL.

Awful start for Atlanta

TT owns Milsap apparently.

He has quietly improved into a very capable starter. He plays good defense and his outside shot has come a long way. If he could learn to get to the hoop a bit more and finish with his athleticism, he could be a great off-season acquisition for teams.

TT owns everyone though, so kinda standard.

Atlanta can't compete in this game if they let the Cavs extend the lead with LeBron, Love and Kyrie all sitting.

 

[CitySushi]

The Hawks just don't have anyone that can slow Lebron down. He's their offensive focal point and without being able to disrupt him, the Cavs get into a flow fast against them.

 

[bksballer89]

Questionable shot selection by Atlanta

Yeah I thought that was pretty crucial. They were down 5 when Love went to join Kyrie and Lebron on the bench. Lead was extended to double digits during that time

Sefolosha is as well equipped as anybody.

Maybe New York Police officers are Cavs fans.
