Live Thread: Celtics @ Cavs
Good evening CtB!
The Cavs welcome the Boston Celtics, who are best and hottest team in the NBA right now, to the shores of Lake Erie for a massive prime time, nationally televised showdown. Unfortunately for the Cavs, Donovan Mitchell and Max Strus have been declared out for tonight. There’s a chance that Isaac Okoro and Caris LeVert may not play either. In spite of the injuries, this game serves as an opportunity for young stars Darius Garland and Evan Mobley to shake off growing reputations as overrated young players undeserving of earlier hype. Also given the injuries, it’s time for the Summer League Cavs stars Sam “I am” Merrill and Craig Porter Jr. to step up and earn more the faith of Coach JB Bickerstaff. Also it’s a perfect game to employ more Dean Wade on the wing tandem of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, who did an excellent job on them in their road win early last season. Can the unheralded take down the Eastern Conference Goliath? Stay tuned…
Tip of is scheduled for 7:30PM Eastern time and will be broadcasted live on national TV channel TNT, Go Cavs!
