Live Thread Cavs @ Wizards

Good evening CtB!

The Cavs have ventured to the banks of the Potomac River to take on the current Eastern Conference 10th seed Washington Wizards and complete their road back to back. This is a game that the Cavs should win but will take a massive amount of grit to fight off the fatigue. The Wizards will be without two of their top offensive options with Bradley Beal and Kyle Kuzma both out, and Ricky Rubio is being load managed tonight as well. Caris LeVert is back from a short hiatus with a hamstring issue, and could come in handy if Donovan Mitchell continues to struggle with the gimpy groin.

One might say the Wizards are the poster child of NBA mediocrity, they don’t do anything particularly well or bad. For the Cavs, it will be about imposing their will on both sides of the ball and fighting off fatigue and the usual J.B. Bickerstaff/Tom Thibodeau 8-man rotation on the second game of a back to back. #FREENETO #FREELOVE

Tip off is scheduled for 7:00PM Eastern time and will be broadcasted live on Bally Sports Ohio/Great Lakes, Go Cavs!
