#Cavs Tristan Thompson standing close to Darius Garland on Garland being an All-Star:
“You’ve had the last 10 games … you had Jamal Murray, body bag. Golden State, body bag. They traded D’Lo, so you couldn’t give him the smoke. You know, they had [LaMelo] Ball, body bag.” – 11:33 PM

#Cavs are starting to feel it. Darius Garland has been so good in this third quarter. Strus just hit a 3 from the left corner and they’re up 87-81 with 5:56 left in the third. – 8:40 PM

I think it’s really exciting. I think it’s fun. I think it’s actual great basketball and it should be shown a lot more.” -via Twitter @RealDCunningham / January 5, 2025
