[Rowan]”Cavs are now tied in the loss column with Milwaukee. Second fewest losses in the East. Cavs also currently hold the tiebreaker over Milwaukee as it comes down to division record” The Cavs have the fifth easiest schedule remaining.

Book it
I was told the Cavs needed to trade Donovan Mitchell before the trade deadline though?
They will fight and end up #2 only to face the Heat in the first round. East is going to be fun to watch
For all the smoke about Donovan Mitchell potentially wanting to leave Cleveland, I honestly think he’s in one of the best situations possible in terms of his role on a team and the talent surrounding him.
If they make a run in the playoffs, I hope he considers inking an extension with them.
i agree, go Cavs
I would like to think they sat there for hours calculating that. Fifth easiest schedule remaining 😭
Cavs have played their best ball with 2 starters out. Now that they’re back, will they improve or decline?
It’s a bit odd that the only 2 starters with a negative +/- in the home win over the Pistons were Garland (-16) and Mobley (-4). Mitchell was +22, Allen +19, and Strus +6 with all the Pistons’ starters being negative except Muscala at 0.
Cavs are only 10-13 vs .500 or better teams, so that has to improve if they’re going to make any noise in the playoffs
Pun intended, but to add to this:
The Garland/Mobley Calvary has just arrived
Edit: CAValry
Edit 2: Actually both Garland and Mobley will be crucified on a hill and save the Cavs on their way to the championship
Watch out for the knicks though baby, they are coming for the gold
And we’re just now getting healthy.
Is tied in losses a metric now?
Strength of Schedule is such a horseshit measurement
The last major adjustment for the Cavs is for garland to play more like a pure pg vs his nature which is scoring dynamo, you can’t really have both Mitchell and him playing like that but it’s understandable that garland plays that style bc he’s a fucking good. Gonna be interesting to see if it happens
Stop I can already feel the narratives starting and they’re too funny
There would be nothing sweeter than to see the Bucks season turn to shit after hiring Rivers.
I agree, go Cavs.

Mitchell continues to be the most underrated player in the league
One thing I’ve learned is that Cleveland will get very little attention unless they make the conference finals or have a top 5ish player in the league. We get very little attention but I like it
Cavs have become like the old Grit’N’Grind Memphis Grizzlies with Conley, Z-Bo and Gasol.
“That team” you dont want to face in the playoffs cuz they could snag a series, but you know wont win a championship.
Didnt we see this episode last year?
It dont matter, any team where Spider is first option aint making it to the finals
Jazz were also good in the regular season
love dg and mobley tho
We have 9 B2Bs remaining. Our schedule is not as easy as this makes it sound.
Why does Cleveland have the tiebreaker over Milwaukee? Didn’t they split the season series 2-2
this cavs team is white hot rn
Way, way too early in the season for this sort of thinking. Sure, the Cavs have played great through injuries, but standings talk on February 1? Nah.
People jumped off the cavs wagon too quick imo. They got over rated like crazy, then when the super young team fell short last year everyone’s just like ok, they cashed their assets in too quickly and now this core isn’t going anywhere.
