Ok @cavs fans, feel familiar? Clearly it’s not ideal, but we have done this twice already. We go home, win 2, and then it’s a 3-game series and we win it in 6 or 7. Keep believing. Let Em **C**** Know!
Still don't understand Atkinson's resistance to calling a timeout or pulling Harden as Brunson heated up.
As bad it was, Cavs did so many positive things in the first 40 minutes. They've got cling to those and hopefully put the rest behind them.
Can still be a long series.
Donovan Mitchell on his message in the locker room after Game 1 loss:
“Keep your head up. Don’t let 1 quarter affect you for the rest of the series. We should’ve won the game, we didn’t. That’s one game. We lost. We fucking blew it. Respond for Game 2. Simple as that.”
"This is a business trip. This isn't something where I'm here to be like, 'Man, I'm so excited to be home.' I did that already. And we lost."

I don’t get the hate for Donovan Mitchell.
He hasn’t been his normal self every game, I get it. But he chose to be here playing for this city and he’s a good player.
Am I the only one who still believes the Cavs can win this series?
They’ve been right there B2B games nearly taking one on the road.
I see them coming home and taking both Games 3 and 4 to tie it up then anything can happen.

Donovan Mitchell on Cavs title hopes:
"We're a tight-knit group who plays hard and got experience. We have a bunch of talent who are ready to go. If they don't believe in us, cool. Don't matter to us, we believe in each other. I know Cavs fans got our back. That's all we need."
Final takeaways from Cavs-Pistons Game 1
1) CLE wins with better ball control
2) MORE STRUS
3) Please give Mitchell more minutes without Harden
4) If Sam is out, spot Keon mins are fine, but need more of Strus
5) Ausar is a problem
6) Still feel like CPJ's tight handles can come in handy...
@Rob_Shenanigans Picking and choosing what stats to highlight is very lazy
How about how he won most versatile player in college football last year?
Or how he had over 2,000 career college receiving yards
Comparing him to a glorified track star is….. interesting to say the least
@SportsBoyTony It’s about setting the winning culture. Every single time without fail if a team has tried losing on purpose to set a more favorable matchup they end up losing before even getting where they thought… or lose to the team they were trying to avoid anyways.
Nick Wilson had an interesting quote on 92.3 The Fan.
"When Baker came in, that was the right guy at the right time with the right attitude that fit this town. Shedeur isn't 1-for-1 the same guy as Baker, but they represent that same spark."
Do you agree that Shedeur is bringing a similar spark to the Browns like Baker did in 2018?
"If you're going to burn a first-round pick on a quarterback next year, you better be 100% sure that Shedeur Sanders is no good."
We break down why it makes zero sense for the Browns to continue with the Dillon Gabriel charade. Let's see if Shedeur Sanders can show us anything to give us hope about his future and development moving forward.
Johnathan Rodriguez is just an absolute trash baseball player, can't believe the organization got fooled by one good series and is risking an entire season because of it.
With today's loss, the Guardians must now take at least two of three from Detroit next week in order to have a realistic chance at the playoffs.
Sweep the Tigers, and they can clinch the AL Central with just a single win against Texas, or a single Tigers loss against Boston.
My message to Browns fans:
Enjoy today. Have fun with it.
If you want to play Perfect Timing on your way to work, do it. If you want to put your wrist up when Shedeur Sanders checks in, do it.
This organization has tortured you these last few years. You deserve a little fun.
If the Guardians make the playoffs, and in the unlikely event that the Mariners and Yankees fall out of the picture, Jose Ramirez has a chance to win his first MVP.
