2023-24 Season | Game #28 | Jazz @ Cavs | Dec. 20, 2023 | 7:00 p.m.

[MirORich]

Max and Sam have been great tonight

it’s like Merrill reminded Max what he’s supposed to look like and Max was like “oh yeah! I do that too”

 

[Pierre Pan]

Excellent win !

[Pierre Pan]

Has any Cav won back to back JYD chains? I can’t see it going to anyone but Sammy tonight

 

[LeQuit]

Can we trade Okoro and Wade for Markkannen snd Horton-Tucker…please?!

 

[FrontPageNews]

Mitchell, garland and Mobley Ewing theory????

 

[wuck]

cavs were significantly better guarding the three-point line in the fourth quarter, and pushing the jazz to drive to the hoop.

i have not written that often this year.

 

[Pierre Pan]

Bring on the Pelicans!!!

Incredible again... I do not care who it was against...

Really enjoyable to watch; and even though JBB’s hand has been somewhat forced , it’s still great to see

 

[pinoycavsfan]

If Garland hunted 3pt shots like Merrill, the offense would be more dynamic.

 

[jjvors]

Cleveland wins solidly in the 4th.

Our bench wins this game, particularly Sam Merrill with a career high 27.

A deeply satisfying win!

Mitchell, garland and Mobley Ewing theory????

I just happened to reread that Ewing Theory earlier today; an enjoyable Bill Simmons article, from back when he was actually entertaining (which seems eons ago)

The Sports Guy Vault: Ewing Theory 101

You've heard about it plenty of times, so in case you forgot here is the coveted Ewing Theory.

[Cavatt]

Not able to watch, but looking at the box score, Deaner has 2 shot attempts???

That's surprising, but he has had his hands full with Markannen. He has been chasing him everywhere. Lauri had an ok game and hit a lot of tough shots, but Wade made him work for them.

Merrill was getting Sexton to give up the ball. That was surprising to me. I love his shot obviously, but he looks pretty active on D. Gotta see more.

 

[LeQuit]

I have to say it-this team is more productive w/o Garland.
