2018-19 Season Game #1 | Cleveland Cavaliers @ Toronto Raptors | October 17th, 2018 @ 7:30 PM EST

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I guess the refs did their job...Raps were 13 point favorites going in
 
Love was only 4 pts and 4 rebs off of the 25 and 12 we need from him - the 25 and 12 Fat Kevin was good for...
 
Can you imagine how 35 year old max contract love will move? Wow
 
Overall it was an entertaining game.
I'm going to enjoy the team this season for sure.

But still Lue's game management is abysmal. And some guys on the team are beyond repair.
I do think we have a chance at the playoffs. But we need to think of something else to do on defense, rather than switching everything. And we need to actually design plays for Kevin. Not just continuously post him up on stronger players.

On to the next one.
 
Liked the effort from most of the guys. No clue why Dekker plays. TT should lose minutes to Nance and Zizic. Sexton put together a couple nice stretches. The team will be up and down this year. People really shouldn't freak out about a loss vs a tough opponent on the road for our first game.

Ty lue rotations are awful. Our d coordinator is awful
 
To be fair we probably just lost to the 2nd seed in the conference.
 
Can you imagine how 35 year old max contract love will move? Wow

I'm not gonna argue the overall point, but he didn't really get anything all that close to a max extension. His Final year could have been like 10 million more I think.
 
Cedi is so damn good, man.

This guy is off to a good start for that 'MIP' award. Toronto is one of the better teams in the league in terms of multiple wing defenders too. Kawhi missed more than a few times when matched with Cedi. (don't let the +/- fool you, he was the Cavs best overall player on the court today).

I liked the fight back in the 3rd/4th quarter after falling behind. Cavs actually outscored Toronto in the 2nd half (by one point).

The main swing in the game was that horrific 2nd quarter stretch.

Well, on to the next.
