Cleveland Cavaliers vs Minnesota Timberwolves Full Highlights 3rd -P2 | Mar 8 | NBA Season 2023-2024
Scored eight points in that second quarter his ability to knock down the jumper he’s a guy that can take some of the load off of Garland in terms of facilitating and Ball moving he’s got six assists as well trying to defend on Anderson tough shot he’s got great touch
Around the basket what that’s one guy who has not missed too many bunnies in front of the rim even though that’s been a little bit of a theme tonight RT all five on the perimeter here for Cleveland Garland will try for three knew that one was off it left his hand
And an underrated detail of that you see Rudy Gober talking and communicating to Anthony Edwards about that screen action 10th rebound for Rudy right after I say he right the bunnies bite Back promo here in the arena of the Cavs players talking about women’s college basketball Donovan said he was upset they’d be on the road and we’re going to miss it should be exciting oh that’s exciting they may be a little irritated as well because the Ohio State Buck guys
Were upset today in the Big 10 tournament last time Cleveland hosted the final four was the legendary Pat Summits final Championship in 2008 wow Parker what a year oh man that’s going to be an offensive foul on Edwards po Edwards his third personal foul he’s the first guy tonight with
Three Cavs have missed their last five shot attempts make it six goar with his 11th Snag Reed open good run in transition to get get to the corner the three ball tonight something that is definitely a part of his game but he’s been great yeah three of four 14 points Garland steps back to counter we just talked about Reed who shoots about 41% Garland
In his last five contests is shooting 49% from the three-point line so could we get a shoot out in the second half Qui for against these top two defenses no less 10 triples tonight for Cleveland right nobody wants to go in the paint to be bothered by a
Seven-footers so we’re just going to just launch from the three are not a team that plays very fast they ranked 25th in pace so no surprises there but they’re looking for mismatches yeah Chris Finch told us they would probably try and run more without Carl Anthony towns in the
Lineup these last uh four or five weeks oh Garland had it blocked out of bounds or they going to call the foul yep is the recent injuries has led to an uptick in usage for Darius Garland but it’s helped him find a rhythm more reps longer stretches the balls in his hands
More he feels key players absolutely right Katie and this obviously the addition of Max stru now when this team is healthy there was a stretch in December minus Garland minus Moy and they were able to make some noise and win some consecutive games there so they are accustomed to having to make
Adjustments Edwards gets into the the paint lot of contact no whistle Levert the other Way Carris Levert in the these guys I know my role I’m back into my spot as a six man even though he comes up short on that free throw and so he’s been playing good ball as a cab this season Cavaliers up a couple under four minutes to go in the third o
Mlin Reed will hoist and hit oh you going to have to close out a little bit tighter on NAS tonight 19 for Reed good support Off the Bench oh Jones keeps after it Nas look at him running Point Nas Reed oh my goodness Reed on the drive and he or
Loose ball the board and then attacks Full Speed Ahead he goes to In and Out oh baby between three wine jerseys whine and dine on that de man out of [Applause] LSU sneaky competitor for Sixth Man of the Year honors as well with a big which
He has done tonight six and0 on the year and we asked uh coach Vince would n start and he’s kind of like we don’t love that he probably won’t start as much because they don’t want him to get him foul trouble he’s too valuable in terms of all the things that he brings
To this team and we definitely have had seen the versatility on this display tonight great bench spark for them Merill five on the shot clock Levert looking to create Warren stays with them guard to guard one through four they’re up and that’s a really aggressive um style of Defense TJ Warr
NBA Saturday Prime Time matchup Boston and Phoenix coming your way at 8:30 Eastern coverage tips with NBA Countdown at 8:00 I’m sure the Celtics have gone 0 and two against Denver in the regular season and what a lot of folks think might be an NBA Finals as you check out the standings in
The Eastern Conference Cleveland right now in third place a win here tonight and a bucks loss would move them up a notch looking pretty comfortable right now as far as a top four seed and interestingly enough ESPN analytics gives Cleveland a better chance than Milwaukee to Garner that number two seed
In the East behind Boston we’ll see if that’s how it plays out I think one through four we have an idea although that four five is Caris L is going to go to the free Billy do if and when embiid comes back they’re without him and Maxi uh in what looks like a
Losing performance tonight they’re just six and 13 since late January New York is beating Orlando tonight in that fight for fourth place tie ball game under two and a half to go here in the third M glin working with Edwards Anthony goes to the wraparound he’s got 19
He just attacks the paint whether he has the ball or he’s just cutting into the space as well he just moves with so much speed and power Allen to Levert Edwards is there defensively Allen and a foul that was a great pass by Allen but of 15 from the line Allen’s three for
Four have to be a little bit more aware of his rotations right there’s more pressure on him in terms of health but coach bigger staff complimented him in terms of Jared knowing exactly who he is as a ball player and he wants so badly to be productive and contribute for this
Team but he’s not going to play outside of himself yeah he moves into a primary role in a a lot of ready for the second game Giannis and sabonis and Jared Allen the only guys in the league averaging 15 points 10 rebounds and shooting better than 60% [Applause] Minnesota backed up by
Two o it’s going to be a foul on Alexander Walker trying to keep Allen out almost boxing him out but they’re facing the action at the top of the three-point line can’t displace him after double double this season for Jarrett who set a franchise record earlier this year with 16 in a
Row that is just incredible [Applause] productivity 11 points 10 boards tonight for Jared all square again Edwards Anthony will pull up it won’t go Allen with another rebound and for Minnesota fans it’s about that time where they notice the clock and that fourth quarter is luring well before we get to that b
That’s a tease that’s a tease of what’s we’ll maybe get to that get to that in about a minute 13 seconds uh what Cleveland is doing has been really sound in the last three possessions getting to the rim or Jared Allen twice now trying to establish position in the paint and drawing
Fouls they’ve gone from the big three-point advantage in the first half to a big free throw shooting advantage in the third missing your stars figure out a way to win Reed he’s been a monster Off the Bench 24 for kniv three away from his season High as soon as mlin made that pass
