Agree. But if they do get the three seed then we’re likely facing the Knicks. Orlando does have the tiebreaker over the Knicks.

Cavaliers just need to win some games - period. I’m not assuming anything.

I want to see this team get to 50 again...

Basically I think you root for Sixers and heat to lose and take 7/8 seed and Milwaukee to take 2 seed. Pacers need to keep winning as well.

Ideally we'd Win 2 of the next 3 and that might put us in position to rest starters and let them have that last game against us haha.

Of note is that Evan Mobley now has 3 consecutive 20 point games

If all 3 are tied who gets 3 seed?

• The Cavs went into the second quarter with a 15-point lead. They quickly relinquished most of it. The Jazz got all the way to down five at the 5-minute mark of the second quarter. The Cavs only scored ten points in seven minutes.
• Part of this was going away from what was working: the inside game. In a 6-minute stretch of the second quarter, the Cavs have five missed threes and four turnovers. That’s not a recipe for success.
• And this is one of the areas you’re still looking for Garland to develop a little further. His feel for mitigating slumps, and controlling the game more still leaves something to be desired. Should it take 6+ minutes to realize that the perimeter game isn’t working and to get it back inside?
• There was 6+ minutes between a Cavs big making a basket. In that time, the Cavs were a -10. From the time when a Cavs big scored again until the end of the half, the Cavs were a +15. Mobley and Allen had nine points in that stretch.
• The Cavs ended the half on a 17-2 run. They went back to what was working, playing inside-out, and it helped push their lead to 20 by half.

Totally off the game topic, but huge leads make for boring 4th Qs.

If you were doing the 2021 draft again, would you still take Mobley or would you go with Scottie Barnes?

Since he's returned from his injury (the first one) he's put up much better numbers than Barnes. Not even close.

Worried that Sam may be getting ill—he kept sniffling throughout the post-game interview.
