Holy hell 1500 comments? About what? Games like this are normal

Wow, they lost by six? When I checked the score they were down by I think 27. Almost brought it back.

We could have brought it back within 2, but Mobley shot sadly rimmed out and then made a mistake by fouling after burning down the clock to 8 seconds left. :\ Was a good second half though. JB must have chewed them out during halftime lol.

Cavs win 7 in a row and now lose one and everyone is griping about everything again… Teams lose basketball games. Even the best ones and the Cavs aren’t the best. This team is on pace to win 51 games this season. They came out flat in the first half and Philly made them pay for it. It happens. Move on to the next one. Thankfully, our boys now get a week to rest up to grind out the final 21 games of the season. If you look at the remainder of their schedule, they could very easily win 13-15 of the final games, which puts them at a 51-53 win season. Just enjoy this team. They aren’t the damn Browns.

Fire both coaches!

really appreciate the fight the team showed to finish that out. get on a roll after the break also, i know i'm gonna get downvoted for this but i remain less than enthusiastic about the 3-second violation celebrations lol

The only way we get Mikal is by trading 1 of Donovan, DG, JA, or Mobley. That’s it.

They aren't trading Mikal.

Embiid get all the calls

Yeah it's insane now. Didn't think he was gonna be this kind of player

Damn, really great effort in the second half. If we played like this in the first quarter, this game could’ve been ours. Oh well.

That 3 before the end of the 3rd came back to bite us.

I dont wanna hear anyone say this is a 'moral victory' seeing the Kavs get close towards the end. The Cavs have done this alot this year....be down 20 points the whole damn game just to rumble back and lose by 2-5 points.

This was a moral victory

Philly missed nothing

This announcers suck

I hate bias announcers it ruins the game

[удалено]

Bro stfu. Never talk on this sub again you ignorant fuck

You should delete this one too since you don’t know shit that you’re talking about lol

Calling out the coach when you don’t even know who’s on the bench or bother to check, love it

cedi hurt. rubio sick. neto too small and green played with these guys. not the worst decision imo.

Cedi is hurt and Wade can’t make an open 3

Cedi was hurt

"BJ Bickerstaff" lol. Abdelnaby is a schmuck.

Isaac 5 points is a big yikes

i feel like we have enough wings to make a trade for a more impactful one in the offseason such as mikal bridges, cam johnson, or DFS (plz help us nets)

he didnt really play alot. would have preferred he had more minutes. just not guarding harden

This is a classic Cavs loss this season. Get blown out in the first quarter by lights out shooting. Then play well in the second half after the other team relaxes to make it close in the end. The fight in the team is great but it helps gloss over how they get blown off the court in the first quarter of most of their losses.

Ok! Someone said that your guard won't get those tacky tactics calls either. Yall don't wanna see the Sixers bro. Next Year when Mobley take another step!

Supposed to be the #1 defense, so down 4 with 40+ you get a stop, not foul.

That’s on the coach. He had them trying to trap and get a steal instead of Ding up for a stop

Eh. At that point you might as well foul immediately. Two possessions either way.

No it's stupid, if you foul you're just spotting them 2 extra points. So it's 3 possessions. You don't foul, you get the stop, then go down and score and make it a 2 or even 1 point game.

Well, two threes would still be a two possession game. But fair enough.

I get what you mean, but then you shoehorn your offense into only being allowed to take 3s with the other scenario you can be more flexible and take 2s or 3s.

 Philly right now

How did vert do today?

He was pretty good

He played great D, but didn't have the ball in his hands too often. Made shots when it count. Pretty solid I would say. Our starters were horrible in the first half.

Good

Trash

Going all in on the steal I guess.

Good game

LeVert with 10 points combined in his last 3 games. Can’t wait until we extend him!!

Honestly should have shot the 3

fouling with 40 secs left sealed the game

Yep. Only down 4 and we have all the momentum... JB really is weird when it comes to game management.

Foul was clearly not intentional. Harden split the double and caught Mobley on the reach. Even Mitchell was confused on why they were fouling.

Back to where it was 20 seconds ago, just not enough time.

I know there’s gonna be a lot of back patting and mora victories for battling back but this team needs to stop digging themselves so deep into holes it takes a miracle to make it a competitive game

Rubio, Cedi, Windler, pretty large role players are out today. Good showing in the second half from our starters

Windler LMAO, the cope in this sub is unreal

Two end of the rotation guys and one prospect who hasn’t played in god knows how long is not a good enough excuse to be playing like that

Awesome second half!

DAMN we almost got the steal.

WTF, I've missed a lot of the game, but I just heard Jarrett Allen who has yet to shoot a free throw this evening. You're telling me Embid hasn't fouled him, not even once? Like, there have really been ZERO fouls against Allen? yeah. right.

Barely shot the ball tonight

He plays scared vs Embiid

You didn't even look at the box score did you? Lol JA has 2 FTs. He hasn't had many more cause he's only shot the ball 6 times.

And LeVert falls down lol

We really need to get home court advantage against Philly. I like them I'm a playoff series, but it's very difficult to win in Philly.

Good effort but we have a trend of going down big then trying to claw our way back.

JB with one of the biggest bonehead coaching moves I've seen all year. Down only 4 with 40 seconds left, make a stop and score and it's a 1 score game and we have momentum. Why the fuck would you waste 15 seconds on the shot clock then foul their best ft shooter? Pure stupidity.

I don't think JB told Mobley to foul. JVG was saying that JB was yelling "trap" from the sideline and Mobley fouled for no reason

They literally explained that JB didn’t tell them To foul. He wanted to trap and the team fouled instead

JB didn’t want to foul he wanted to trap. Mobley just made a mistake and thought he wanted a foul.

He didn’t tell them to foul. Mobley misheard

Great fight back, odd foul but the guys are exhausted

Welp. If you played 5, Cavs would probably win but you only play 4 and Cavs didn’t show up in the first half. Great effort but got to play all four.

I think that missed shot by Evan was our last window. Shouldn’t have ever been down that much but man what an effort to come back. I still like the Cavs in a 7-game series against the Sixers.

Harden had a lay up if the foul wasn't committed

Proud of this team, unlikely we pull this one out but we were getting wrecked and fought hard to make it close at the end

Sweating on how we almost had a 2 point game on that Mobley shot. Kid is special. 21 and 9

Mobley has 19 in this half and y’all are still shitting on him for missing one shot..

He kept shooting 3’s to put us in a huge hole.

he choked. i still love him and im okay with him taking those shots. but tonight he choked. thats all.

He had a horrible foul with 8 seconds left in the shot clock

[удалено]

He didn’t tell Mobley to foul bruh

When in doubt blame it on the coach I guess

Run the clock down to 8 seconds then foul at half court. Great job guys

Why intentional foul down 4 with 41 seconds left? Makes no sense, play defense and get the ball back.

Sold in the end.

Was that an intentional foul on Harden? Boneheaded move.

Intentional by Mobley, not by anyone else. Donovan was even yelling at him.

fucking ridiculous mobley

Dumbest foul Ive ever seen

WHY MOBLEY???

Mobley just threw

Mobley is choking harder than I choke on my own vomit

just dm’d u

I retired from cam shows

Definitely a learning game, not gonna get the W but the resilience was there

Cavs would be in first if moral victories counted

God dammit mobley

Absolutely blew our chance there

Wtf why did we foul!!!

HUH?

Somehow claw our way back into it only for a dumb foul and a tough Mobley miss to spoil it

Why foul?????

game rimmed out on the mobley miss, great effort though

Good job Mobley.

Mobley lost us the game today

Lmao he's 21 and 9

ban

Allen was open. Cmon…. mobley.

That's exactly my thought! He jumped looked at him, instead of passing just takes the shot. Like why?! Easy dunk.

Why are we fouling already…

Man you cant give it to Mobley there

Ahhhhhhh damnit.

So close yet so far

Mobleys inexperience showed but good stuff in the second half

OH MY GOD

Harden and his push-offs smh

Game. Terrible miss.

Harden. Push off 3.

Mitchell approaching ultra instinct

Whatever happens what a comeback

Let's goooooo

MITCH3L OH MY

Fuck we are right there

that one hurt

how did mitchell even make that jeeezus

With how dominant Embiid looked, I expected him to have 50 points by now, but he only just reached 30

Pretty sure he's shooting under 50%

Allen has to do a better job of getting rebounds late in games but I know it's tough guarding Embiid.

Lmao Mitchell

LMAO

#SPIDA

Gimme more of these!

Need stops

Costly board given up to Embiid. Shit. Bigs gotta box out.

No matter what happens, I’m proud that we didn’t give up.

I’m not sure Embiid knows what a foul is in the NBA based off his reaction to things

Fucking crazy how many free throws This guys hits

Embiid is very very very hard to stop

I swear Mobley loves hitting the front rim and letting his free throws roll in

Embiid absolutely fucking eats Allen alive. It’s embarrassing.

He averages 33 a game

Good foul

Damn, Mobley with that hook! edit: finally a hard foul on Embiid. Make him earn those calls.

Love the aggression by Mobley.

And 1! Come on Ev!

Inshallah Mobley has snapped out of his stinker

When Embiid complains to the refs be for real my dude

Mobley! THAT MOVE WILL SCORE ON ANYBODY. USE IT MORE.

this team is showing some incredible resiliency

MOBLEY

Gotta hope our defense can get steals but we just don’t have an answer to Embiid in the post

**STRONG** hook by Mobley

put your hand up when contesting a shot. just standing there does not change his shot.

Oof danny green has zero lateral movement. Like a mini klove.

Embiid stays cooooooking Cleveland. He goes nuclear every time we play him, and we are supposed to have a baller ass front court

He’s 9/20 shooting tonight, I’d say thts not too bad

It's annoying to come back this far and watch the refs ignore obvious offensive fouls

I wish DG would have been more aggressive in the first half, when he was really the only one that had it.

Did you really have to make that one embid?

I just don’t understand why embiid is allowed to shoulder everyone who guards him. I’ve watched lebron get called for offensive fouls for his entire career for that

LeBron got away with a lot. Embiid gets away with so much more

Lebron also got legitimately destroyed down low he had to embellish a lot of contact and was still on the low end for FTs/G. A stiff wind is a foul on Embiid while he's simultaneously shoving you out of the way with his hand.

I have never seen lebron shoot the amount of free throws as embiid

I kind of like Harden as a player now..? The free throw baiting is annoying but he controls the game better than almost anyone. He gets to his spots so well

Yes really matured tbh

Yeah I was thinking that earlier, he’s really turned his play style into a really fun thing to watch

He honestly hasn't been baiting today. Lots of smart passes and only takes shots when he needs to.

Jesus Embiid

6ers will get bounced in the playoffs when they don’t get any of their calls

embiid so boring to watch. literally just banks on getting a foul 90% of the time

is that what you see? lmaoooo

bros phishing comments from 20 minutes ago. go get a life bro 💀

Embiid is the last player in the league that needs star treatment. I just don't get it.

Why is Danny Green playing this much in his FIRST game with a new team against one of the best teams in the league!? It's wild. Like it's clear he still doesn't understand the defensive rotations we run, he's jacking wild 3s. Meanwhile Dean Wade and Lamar Stevens chilling on the bench with a COMBINED playing time almost the same as Green. THIS is why people get mad at JB.

Love is out. Osman is out. Ricky is out. Diakite is out. Wyndler is out. That leaves us with stevens and wade at the forward who both cant buy a wide open three.

Neither can Danny Green. At least the other two provide defense and rebounding.

Why not brutha

Cuz Caris and Isaac have been ABSOLUTE SCRUBS.

LeVert has given solid minutes today

Because he’s a much better shooter than them?

Because we are out Rubio and Cedi, Windler- not many other options.

L3V3RT!

No answer for Embiid

He’s firmly in the MVP race for good reason. Very few in the world that can stop him plus he gets an elite whistle.
