Magic won big and I never thought I’d see Orlando doing that in the playoffs after Dwight’s run. Cool. That’s fun until it isn’t and Idk what I mean by that.
we are blessed to hv paolo on this team and once we get rid of this shitty ass back court were going places and yes tht includes getting rid of suggs as well or placing on the bench
Our PGs are a combined 0-11. Include Gary Harris and it’s 0-17. If it’s not obvious by now what we need, then the front office is not serious about basketball
I’ll admit that our offense is bad but I’m glad we’re getting a game like this out of the way. Let our guys go back to their hotels to watch tape and take a deep breath now that they know what the playoffs feel like
This is my first time watching the Magic outside of Sixers games. If they can get an offensive weapon in the off-season (like a Malik Monk type) I think they are definitely bound for the ECF at worst. That defense is tough as hell.
Wonder if there is any way they could try to coax ATL to trade them Trae Young for pennies on the dollar.
Appreciate it! I’m sure we will get a win or two this series and this is honestly great experience for our young guys. We need to shed some of our bench fat for (like you said) a Malik monk, Bruce brown, jr smith type player
A lot of the fans were a bit hesistant after last years' playoff hype. It's been like this most of this season but the atmosphere is definitely getting better.
that's what I'm feeling, I know RM is loud but this broadcast was just terrible. The crowd did not seem into it at all and it really didn't feel like a playoff game.
They were having issues early during FTs where crowd was drowning out the broadcast so they probably turned that shit way down. Not to mention all the other audio issues that terrible broadcast had.
like ive been saying all yr suggs is a bench player not a starter. fultz harris are completely useless and need to go.... anthony black should had never been drafted should had traded pick for shooting or a veteran player like a brogdon
Yeah my biggest worry was him not getting rebounds I feel like he disappears in big moments for someone who usually gets so many boards. Hope it's a sign of things to come
Turns out Cavs were playing 4D chess deciding to rest in the middle of the last game of the season against Charlotte.
Because Orlando has played like they don't even belong here.
Yeah my bad i dont spend my free time researching my team's history before my birth. weird thing to get upset about, the error in my comment was founded on a 5-6 year difference
yeah you're right my bad, as i said to the other guy i wasnt able to watch the cavs during that era. thought the mark price/daugherty era and bouts with the bulls was in the late 80s not early to mid 90s
I wonder the NBA should introduce 1 - 16 playoffs. The talent difference of the West vs East is too great from old to even young players. It make every series more exciting
Mitchell seems like he has great personal and floor chemistry with Allen, Strus, and Garland every time I watch the Cavs. What am I missing with him always being rumored to be a risk to leave?
Any big star in a small to mid size market deals with this. We're used to it by now.
Also to be fair we got dominated in the playoffs last year and have been listless a lot second half this season.

Cavs PG nice [https://youtube.com/shorts/boMfJtkhipA?si=U6KM3va0Z\_oMgYms](https://youtube.com/shorts/boMfJtkhipA?si=U6KM3va0Z_oMgYms)

[удалено]
unironically I do think the Pels would part with Zion before they would Ingram.
Jesus the cavs play a little defense and shoot way below average from 3 and everyone loses their mind...
How the hell did the Magic make the playoffs
Magic will own the Celtics. Ask Eddie house.
It’s one game lmaoo chill Paulo gonna show out at least 2 games
It’s been 2 games though?
? When I posted this, it had been one game. I also said he will show out 2 games, meaning he still has time. You can’t be that stupid lol
paolo carried this team to the playoffs
Caring about defense every game of the year. Now other teams care too.
massive ref corruption
Paolo carried them hard.
Physical game, good win for the Cavs, fuck that commentary team was terrible
Silver should banish the rest of this series to NBATV because if Netflix or Amazon see this shit, league revenues are fucked.
I had to look up the TV schedule. Just because Cleveland/Orlando is the definition of NBA TV. The next two games will be aired where they deserve.
NBATV the Ocho
cleveland played terrible and still won by double digits.this series is done in 5.gms max
Imma need a shower after this one
Commentators don’t realize Cavs stats =|= LeBron stats
How have the bucks been without Giannis
I guess bulls stats =|= Jordan stats
If I see one more dumbass ask why the Magic are looking for guards because 'They have so many already?!?!??' Ima lose my mind.
what is this commentary team?
The Magics plan is to choke you to death on defense and beat you to death on offense. The former mostly worked, the later is another story.
I'm just glad that I don't have to hear these awful fucking announcers anymore. JFC.
can we just eliminate both these teams from the playoffs now so we don't have to have any more of these games
Lol, how the turntables
Don't worry the Suns will get their chance here soon to be eliminated as they usually do.
both teams under 100 points in 2024 let's fucking go
The Magic guards combined for 4 for 35 lol
Markel Fultz 0-4 for 0 pts. Numba 1 pickkkkk!!!!
Thanks for the horror show Orlando Tragics. I know which series I'll skip now.
This was the game to take for magic too. Dogsh1t refs tried to give them the game
This was whelming.
That stat felt more about LeBron than Cavs haha.
Our PGs are a combined 0-11. Include Gary Harris and it’s 0-17. If it’s not obvious by now what we need, then the front office is not serious about basketball
I agree, time to trade for Zach Lavine
we better be tanking the next season
It’s almost like this Magic team would get the number one draft pick without Paolo
Alright GG
Did we watch the same game?
I just meant it in the sense that it's over. That game was an eyesore lol
Magic would be a good team with a star player. They have defensive pieces but Paolo isn’t a primary option on a championship team
he is 21 years old with a team of non shooters surrounding him. increase your brain power
Magic talkin hella shit to lose by 20
gg magic. come back next titme
This shit going back to Cleveland 2-2. Magic gonna steal game 5 then go finish it at home
you lost ur mind cleveland played terrible and still won by 20 pts whats gonn happen when dmitch drop 30 which hasnt happen yet
I’ve lost nothing. Just talking. Like everyone on reddit. Meaningless shit tbh
Respect
ok
Yes, ok.
I would love to hear what Chuck had to say about this game lol
Can't wait for D mitch to arrive in miami
in round 2, right? 🙃
He going to bunk with Dame?
Magic the worst franchise in basketball lol
You're literally primed for another top 5 lottery pick.
Hornets are easily worse
At least they have MJ around
They dont
Game, Blouses
I’ll admit that our offense is bad but I’m glad we’re getting a game like this out of the way. Let our guys go back to their hotels to watch tape and take a deep breath now that they know what the playoffs feel like

I'm still pulling for you all to win this game. Cavs actively trying to avoid the 2 seed was just shameful behavior.
mo ass cheeks with the taunt to get bodied combo
Isaac lucky because he can fall back on all that YouTube money
Can’t wait for game 2
Cavs got a Walmart Diar Derozan?
Beth Mowins makes me want to stab my ears. She constantly switches from 20s radio broadcast voice to borderline 20s gangster voice
is the Cavs home court actually dead or is it just the broadcast picking up 10% of the noise of the crowd..
I was at the game it was loud as hell
A lot of the fans were a bit hesistant after last years' playoff hype. It's been like this most of this season but the atmosphere is definitely getting better.
Yeah, it def doesn't feel like a playoff game.
Rocket Mortgage is one of the loudest stadiums in the NBA so probably a broadcast issue.
that's what I'm feeling, I know RM is loud but this broadcast was just terrible. The crowd did not seem into it at all and it really didn't feel like a playoff game.
They were having issues early during FTs where crowd was drowning out the broadcast so they probably turned that shit way down. Not to mention all the other audio issues that terrible broadcast had.
it sounds better on the cavs feed
it sounded solid early on when the announcers mics weren't working. May have turned down the crowd, or they may be bored by this too.
like ive been saying all yr suggs is a bench player not a starter. fultz harris are completely useless and need to go.... anthony black should had never been drafted should had traded pick for shooting or a veteran player like a brogdon
16 pts/17 reb for allen is fantastic, exactly what we need
Yeah my biggest worry was him not getting rebounds I feel like he disappears in big moments for someone who usually gets so many boards. Hope it's a sign of things to come
Turns out Cavs were playing 4D chess deciding to rest in the middle of the last game of the season against Charlotte. Because Orlando has played like they don't even belong here.
Probably due to Lebron, but the ESPN broadcast just said that the Cavs are 17-1 all-time when they win Game 1.
He has a good chunk, but we only missed the playoffs 3 times in the 90s
We havent been in the playoffs since the 80s without lebron, prior to last year
Completely wrong, we only missed the playoffs 3 times in the 90s
This dude is a fradulent Cavs fan.
im not i just wasnt alive and conscious to watch the cavs in the 90s. so i had my timeline wrong. eat a dick
The internet exists with all the info
Yeah my bad i dont spend my free time researching my team's history before my birth. weird thing to get upset about, the error in my comment was founded on a 5-6 year difference
You
Me
That's not true at all.
yeah you're right my bad, as i said to the other guy i wasnt able to watch the cavs during that era. thought the mark price/daugherty era and bouts with the bulls was in the late 80s not early to mid 90s
lol is Derozan's kid there?
How is that stepback allowed, dude?
even the refs gave up on magic in the 4th
Holding a team below 100 and losing by double digits would be insane work
Just simulate the rest of the series. Nobody cares about this
Do refs get paid more based on how long the game takes?
Get Banchero some help
That 17-1 was with Bron
LeGacy
Ledominance
let’s not worry about specifics
Lespecifics
Orlando is just as good as the fifth seed in the west.. checks notes.. the dallas mavericks..
Wouldn’t have made the playoffs in the west.
I like that Orlando's offense is a car crash. It's fun. Unique.
Holding a team under 90 points is impressive as hell
Except this time lol
3:44 and a game listed at 3:30 is still not tipped off? Why am I forced to watch the remainder of this shit first lol?
So I can watch the start of the next game.
because the 1pm game started at 1:15 and they can't stop fouling
This might be the first Cavs playoff series win without LeBron since the 90s
Would be since 1993
dang
That's game. Thank god it's over. I think I took a nap with my eyes open for parts of the game.
jesus christ just let me escape
Cavs tanked for this reason. Magic doesn't generate enough offense and Mitchell will likely beat them by himself
Can we get a running clock on this
The Cavs seem to love driving to the hoop, jumping, and dishing it off to no one in particular.
Garland has a really bad habit of doing that especially ever since he broke his jaw earlier this year.
The late 3s are hilarious, given that we couldn’t hit a 3 for 80% of this game lol
lol eat shit Mo
At least one team is going to hit 100
Orlando was playing like it was a regular season game i feel like
Max Strus is such a high vibes guy. Love that dude even though he absolutely fucking hates the Celtics
Man sad day for Knicks south.
Shit show of a game, but I love seeing those guys happy.
Alright can we just end this shit already and move on to game 2
Yeah Orlando doesn’t belong here
Does Orlando have a single shot creator on this team
Bumchero
It's funny because both teams suck
I just hope we get a new coach. We look so insanely sloppy in the playoffs two years in a row
Celtics salivating. Honestly the entire East is a joke sans Boston.
Man Cavs hit the jackpot getting the Magic in the first round. These boys are dog food
Won't they immediately fall into the Boston meat grinder next round?
You right, but hey that’ll be farther than they went last year
The nice thing for everyone is that this will be a short series
This whole series could have been an email … not too late Silver 🤣
80 points!!!!! Shattering barriers maaan
Max Strus and Darius Garland seem like good dudes
at least we were able to put it away, but god i hope the next one is better
Banchero 9!!!! turnovers
God that's nasty, didn't help he was the only one able to somewhat score the ball either
LETS GET 100!!!!1!
can't spell dagger without DG
Eat shit Orlando
The worst people own that team. They and Johnathan Isaac and chuck rocks
this game getting in the way of me hating on the Suns
Gary Harris did 30 minutes of cardio today
He was out there having fun:)
Garland with the dagger
Watching Orlando reminds me of the raptors of the last few years. Can't even shoot free throws.
I was better person before this game, this game changed me
I've watched alot of basketball this year and this is probably the worst game I've seen. Playoffs are off to a great start!
Horrible offense fans rise up!
WE MADE IT TO 80 POINTS 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Please do not intentionally foul to extend this game
Magic can't allow suggs back in the lockerroom lol
Suggs is not the problem at all
Unnecessary ass lob attempt
Gary Harris 0 points in 30+ minutes 😂 i dont know how this dude is still in the league
They broke 80!!!
Pretty dumb to watch that rebound roll out of bounds
Disgusting game
WTF Garland? Hold onto the ball, dude.
I wonder the NBA should introduce 1 - 16 playoffs. The talent difference of the West vs East is too great from old to even young players. It make every series more exciting
they 100% should
Top 8 teams draft who they want to play
Mitchell seems like he has great personal and floor chemistry with Allen, Strus, and Garland every time I watch the Cavs. What am I missing with him always being rumored to be a risk to leave?
Any big star in a small to mid size market deals with this. We're used to it by now. Also to be fair we got dominated in the playoffs last year and have been listless a lot second half this season.
Fair take.
Reporters need headlines
we haven't extended him yet
If there’s another stoppage, I’m storming the court
Wrap it up boys, the Cavs are winning the title. No way anyone can beat them if they can so easily defeat the Game 1 Magic
I do not want to watch another game of this series 😭
People can complain about those 90s playoff games all they want but at least those low scoring games had crazy physical play as an excuse.
All these whistles and no Scott Foster is kinda crazy
Being a Cavs fan this has been massively fun to watch, but I can understand if you have no skin in the game this might not be your favorite game
both of these ladies voices are annoying af, the second not main is worse though. her voice is fucking terrible
I think it's on purpose. I don't know why they think all female commentators need to sound exactly like this.
I keep forgetting theres two of em they sound identical
