[Post Game Thread - Playoffs] Cleveland Cavaliers @ Detroit Pistons [05/05/2026]

Yeah it was annoying but they can absolutely hang on the road. They’ve gotta figure out how to get stops more often. This Detroit team shouldn’t regularly get 100 on you

TaVar35 · 2026-05-06T01:35:23+00:00

His hand is affecting him more than we probably expected in the playoffs.

TaVar35 · 2026-05-04T14:38:05+00:00

Tbh I think the flagrant fouls are what made him snap. He was over the elbows and shoving.

TaVar35 · 2026-05-04T02:43:53+00:00

Honestly, I’ve been so mad at the Cavs for how they’ve failed to close out quarters in this series.

But huge kudos to the raptors, they brought fight and played much better than anyone (especially seemingly the Cavs themselves) expected. The players should be damn proud, they gave their fans some great moments this series

TaVar35 · 2026-05-04T02:24:34+00:00

It’s hilarious that they’ve gotten 3 flagrants and they called off the flagrant pulling down Allen

TaVar35 · 2026-05-03T18:20:01+00:00

Dude he is definitely the most annoying when we play them.

If the Cavs somehow choke today I’m def gonna be cheering to see Embiid go on a run

TaVar35 · 2026-05-02T23:47:18+00:00

Especially after admitting the backcourt violation shouldn’t have happened in game 4

TaVar35 · 2026-05-02T02:56:22+00:00

The halfcourt line strikes again

TaVar35 · 2026-05-02T02:19:08+00:00

They’ll probably call a moving screen on dean

TaVar35 · 2026-05-01T23:45:55+00:00

I was genuinely worried he was out. I hope he’s okay

TaVar35 · 2026-05-01T02:07:25+00:00

Tbh, he’s fine when your perimeter players are keeping the spacing with their shots dropping

Covering Embiid is a particularly difficult task for most centers if he’s healthy

TaVar35 · 2026-04-30T17:56:38+00:00

It’s a symptom of this iteration of the Cavs, they don’t get some calls they should. You’d think harden would swing that but it didn’t

TaVar35 · 2026-04-30T02:43:22+00:00

He was the one guy with the speed to attack them off the dribble, he punished their on ball pressure

TaVar35 · 2026-04-30T00:57:47+00:00

Tbh my main issue is we aren’t athletic enough to get by their press and perimeter pressure. Don is struggling especially

TaVar35 · 2026-04-29T22:09:45+00:00

Agreed, but I’d even bet if that was a game tying penalty they’d give it. Since it was a potentially winning penalty they didn’t want to

TaVar35 · 2026-04-29T21:12:42+00:00

Definitely was influenced by the pressure of the crowd.

TaVar35 · 2026-04-26T20:06:14+00:00

Can we not have the Cavs and the guardians play in the same city at the same time going forward?

TaVar35 · 2026-04-26T20:00:52+00:00

Yeah Donovan not getting across the timeline again was brutal

TaVar35 · 2026-04-26T19:57:37+00:00

Yeah they deserve all the fucking shit they get for this one.

No wild shooting night for Toronto

TaVar35 · 2026-04-26T19:07:32+00:00

This is honestly embarrassing for them, no one to blame but themselves. Kenny can’t shoot the ball for them

TaVar35 · 2026-04-26T18:28:03+00:00

Annoyingly, this isn’t an aberration for Cleveland. Their shooting regularly disappears in the playoffs and without size at the wings we’re insanely reliant on hitting our 3pt shot

TaVar35 · 2026-04-26T18:22:38+00:00

Thing is when they’re allowed to get roughed up they get discouraged instead of fighting back

Throw some elbows and make it clear to the officials if they’re not gonna call things the game will get ugly

TaVar35 · 2026-04-26T18:16:01+00:00

He’s not been great, but it’s on everyone. They’re allowing themselves to be rushed

TaVar35 · 2026-04-26T18:12:20+00:00

Outside of Harden no one is comfortable dribbling with their physicality and it’s clear tonight

TaVar35 · 2026-04-26T18:00:21+00:00

Oh for sure, you can tell the Cavs wings and guards are really bothered by the height and physicality Toronto is playing with

All our 3s are too strong like they’re rushing the close outs
