Game #36 Cleveland Cavaliers (24-11) @ Utah Jazz (15-21) Saturday December 30th, 2017 [8:00 PM EST]

Mitchell is really good.

 

[Gus Zing]

Pick and roll with Wade/LeBron should have been used more against the Warriors.

Cavs are always so much better on both ends the day after a full practice. Especially defensively where we've gotten extremely sloppy.


That's one reason why we're so much better in the playoffs.

This really cannot be emphasized enough. The defense in the playoffs over the last three years has been very good other than against GS last year although nothing could stop that team.

The Cavs’ overall run in the playoffs over the past three years is a top 7ish three year run in NBA history and that’s being conservative. We were just unlucky to run into GS having everything go their way. This team would win either 2 or 3 titles in almost every other 3 year window in the 3 point era.

LeBron's defensive effort right now is high.

Jeff Green having some come down to reality games.

So its a good thing that have a full practice again on Monday !

Man you really wonder how Jeff Green would be thought of he had been able to get in with a Cleveland like team earlier in his career. He looks so talented that worse teams get infauated with his potential rather then just keeping it simple for him

Kind of off topic, but watching Jeff Green now makes me think Josh Smith could have been another good Cavs player if he was drafted by us in 04.

Either him, JR, or Al Jefferson with that draft pick in 04....would have had a better career...

He has 9 points in 6 minutes...

They are really playing Korver tough so far this evening.

 

[Gus Zing]

Call me crazy, I think LeBron should be an All Star this year

Butler and George being traded to the west certainly helps his chances this year.

Are you talking about today: I think Jeff Green has been awesome this game

 

[Rich]

Ok, wade and LeBron just sorta totally standing still on that defensive possession. Let's not do too much more of that.

 

[ice cream man]

Jeff Green is a good player. Just not a smart player.

 

[Tlyons]

Slow down Jeff

 

[Gus Zing]

Ok. Sit Green bring back Crowder.

Well done defense
