See him sit out I know it’s tough for him to sit out but when he’s in there the difference he makes this enormous I’m excited for Thomas Bryant because he’s such a high energy guy and you’d hope that part of the conversation is like listen rebound and run like that is

Set great screens but I’m more curious to see how Cleveland approaches this remember they usually put Moy on jimmmy Butler so if they shift there who’s guarding Thomas Bryant I so that’s what I’m really excited to see Twan connection between these two guys they they helped lead them to the victory at

Indiana which was surprising considering that key guys out against an Indiana roster that was playing well how about niik yic missing the last two games making his first shot of this one he opens the night with his 37th triple of the Season you have to maintain really

Good spacing against this team four on the shot clock and Butler trains a three Jimmy Butler 47 triples this year averaging 21 points for Game 3 minutes in game tied at six Butler probing on the basine oh he got inside of Allen and converts the reverse not easy with the seven footer
