Time is running out on this iteration of the Cavs.

@MrJ_214 I tired of the slogan but it’s all we’ve got

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

It’s Cavs gameday! #LetEmKnow

@spidadmitchell LFG

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

With that logic and line of thought, we can afford to give them more than one game with a new look rotation before making sweeping declarations. Every season is a little different.

Culture is agree with. Koby! Not so much. There was a sizable effort made to address certain areas (size, athleticism, wing depth).

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

The Heat and Knicks are 0-2! Oh no. Blow it up! 😂😂

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

@wrldanotherwrld I don’t know how you watch Mario play during preseason and in that initial game and consider him a “bad replacement”

There are definitely some issues that remain and hopefully they are worked out throughout the entire season but I’m not already gonna label them failures

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

@wrldanotherwrld The Cavs are replacing a possible 5/10 of their rotation. That’s certainly a good amount of change.

I agree with the latter portion but that doesn’t however mean they are already doomed to fail.

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

@f15teen07 For sure. All-star would be lofty but possible. We shall see.

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

I hope Ty Jerome has an all-star season

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

@f15teen07 Players make the all-star team on bad teams frequently enough for it not to be out of the question. Don’t rule it out

Mario Hezonja on waiving off Donovan Mitchell:

“I told him you’re not supposed to bring the ball up under pressure. I waived JT out to go 1-on-1 against my mismatch. I spoke to James and Donovan, there’s 5 of us on the court and you need to read those mismatch situations.”

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

Can’t catch a break. Feel bad for him.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Orlando Magic star Paolo Banchero has sustained a low-grade right high ankle sprain, sources tell ESPN. This injury diagnosis typically carries a timetable of 4-to-6 weeks.

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

@Hop0ff_drew @FuckAatname_ @ctclevelandfan You said “everyone got better but the Cavs”

The very nature of that statement means they didn’t improve or get better.

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

Peyton Watson held his matchups to 5/12 (41.6%) from the field.

The defense is there. The offense will follow.

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

@WardenSzn2 No one guards anyone for the entire game anymore. And tbh, you don’t won’t him guarding one person all game.

The Cavs switch more often than id like tho.

That’s not a Peyton Watson issue though so point stands. He wasn’t getting fried

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

Brown indeed got the best of him on back to back buckets. I don't think he had his way though.

He was only credited with going 2/2 vs Watson. I think that final bucket you are referring to is actually on Merrill because of the switch.

He spent more time defending Maxey.

[Chris Daulton @blackvaultchris]

@DevaronPerry It seemed like Jaylen Brown had his way with him in the 4th quarter, scoring on 3 or 4 straight possessions.

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

Darius Acuff Jr. highlights: 33 PTS

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

@SadOSUhoopsFan In your opinion. Time will tell.

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

@SadOSUhoopsFan These are all potential outcomes. I’m not writing them off already tho.

To each their own.

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

@SadOSUhoopsFan No we haven’t.

They are essentially replacing 3 major rotational spots and trying to iron out 2 others. This roster is different as is it’s rotation.

They got some work to do tho

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

Is MW4 worth it?

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

@_nickwoodson I’d rather lose that way too but ultimately, those 0-2 starts don’t mean they are doomed.

Each team is dealing with their own issues

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

@_nickwoodson That’s true

[Mack Perry @DevaronPerry]

@Hop0ff_drew @FuckAatname_ @ctclevelandfan If you are admitting that the defense improved than you are technically contracting yourself about them not improving
