There’s no need to be DIFFicult

PootieTooGood | Cavaliers

38 | 3 days ago

92-78 Heat lead with 4 minutes left in the third, 52-24 run to close the game, with a lineup of Proctor/Merrill/Travers/Tomlin/Bryant managing to be the one that turned the tide. wild.

PsychologicalCow8145

12 | 3 days ago

Maybe because tomlin and bryant got us actually looking tough

nobraininmyoxygen | Cavaliers

7 | 3 days ago

I said this in another thread but as much as I love Nance the Cavs need Tomlin to get minutes.

sexland69 | Cavaliers

Buddy pulling this out after Foster gave his team 41 FTs last game

DirectInvestigator66 | Cavaliers

You won by two points last game when the FTA were 27-41 in your favor… stay mad

cavsking21 | Cavaliers

come on, we owned you guys on the offensive glass at least this time the disparity makes sense

Considering you’ve commented this like 10 times within the last 10 minutes…put your phone done and touch grass. This is embarrassing.

clear831 | Heat

Refs were bad but lets not do that. Turnovers and boards killed us.

A_Mellow_Fellow | Cavaliers

Are the Cavaliers better without Darius Garland, Donovan Mitchell, Evan Mobley, and Max Strus?

Sample_text_here1337 | Raptors

Clearly, I think you should sit them out for tomorrows game.

Don’t forget Jaylon Tyson

Cavs with no Mitchell, Mobley, Garland, Tyson, or Strus against the heat with no Bam, Herro, or Foster. What a matchup.

Craig Porter Jr legacy game

Allen had a great game too

WindlerDeepInTheRock | Cavaliers

12 | 3 days ago

Porter Jr’s statline is exactly why I don’t like using stocks. If someone told me that a small guard recorded 7 stocks in a game I would assume that they would be mostly steals. He’s the smallest guy on the floor (maybe, Davion Mitchell might be smaller) and he got 4 blocks!? Cavs fans know that he has crazy bounce, but that’s just incredible for his size. Love everything he does.

TheSmokedSalmon420 | Cavaliers

Illustrious_Hat_7832

Funny how a game like that can happen twice in the same night

YouStillTakeDamage | Heat

30 | 3 days ago

Yeah rebounding is just a persistent issue for the team. Especially for the long rebounds where they get outhustled. Kudos to a undermanned Cavs team for doing all the dirty work and getting a very convincing win. On to the next.

okaybrah | CLE

8 | 3 days ago

Allen did to you guys on the boards what the Knicks did to us. What happens when you play them?

cavsking21 | Cavaliers

9 | 3 days ago

It is part of the trade-off you get when you try and run after every shot. You either send guys to go get rebounds or you send them up the court to attack. Hard to do both unless you have elite rebounding from your bigs

Ordep222 | Heat

4 | 3 days ago

Bam helps a ton with rebounds, not having him is genuinely a huge hit for our ability to get any boards

EnochofPottsfield | Heat

1 | 3 days ago

Herro’s oddly enough gonna help immensely with this problem. Bam obviously more so, but that’s a given

j0ydivisi0n | Cavaliers

Miami Heat without Scott Foster everybody. Glad the bench made up for that embarrassing loss the other night.

Craig porter jr always puts up serious numbers when he gets minutes

Opposite-Skirt5158

14 | 3 days ago

It’s uncanny. He was awesome as a rookie. Played behind Garland and Jerome all year last season. Break out candidate here in year 3

h0tsauCesalad

12 | 3 days ago

He’s just a straight up ball player. Type of player good teams have and bad teams give up on

ice_cream_funday

-2 | 3 days ago

Not really, people just only notice he got minutes when he puts up numbers. He’s mostly pretty terrible but is good for a few games like this per season.

zer0sev7n | Bulls

Have a feeling we’re not gonna see those “Jaime ‘Juan Wick’ Jacquez” stat posts tonight.

Miami don’t be beating our A team in a heart-breaker and then get blown out by our C team at the end of a game it makes us look bad.

TruthSayerFu | Cavaliers

they didn’t beat our A team

GeorgeEBHastings | Cavaliers

It was, like, our B+ team.

Tonight was our C-average team and got damn. They overperformed.

If you’re making five bets on a random game between two bench teams in November you might have a problem.

Buddy it’s not always that deep.

ice_cream_funday

What do you even mean by this? I don’t think it’s “deep,” I’m just saying that’s the behavior of someone with a problem.

clear831 | Heat

It’s not. I bet a grand total of $5. Huge fucking problem I guess.

Serious-Turnip2378

Jaquez killed Miami tonight. You just can’t miss like that unless you’re Kobe Bryant or Allen Iverson. That’s cancerous productivity from a shooting perspective. At a certain point you gotta pass the damn ball.

Can we have our 3 all stars back too?

The 3 refs helped for the 3 all stars you’re missing.

Is your only take away from this game the FT disparity? Jesus Christ it seems like for the last hour that’s all you’ve been saying in every thread.
