There's been a big conversation #onhere about NBA writers on the road. This season I've been at 16 of the 19 games the Cavs have played.

Kenny Atkinson said the Cavs didn’t have the juice against the Raptors. Given that they’ve played the most games in the NBA and time off has been infrequent, that’s understandable. What isn’t understandable is Evan Mobley only taking seven shots. open.substack.com/pub/theinsid...
Game Night Observations: No Juice, Resting Time and Nae'Qwan Tomlin's Rise
Cleveland drops to 12-7 on the season after its third loss to Toronto on the year.

Shorthanded #Cavs fall in Toronto 110-99 to fall to 12-7 on the season. Donovan Mitchell had 17 for Cleveland, Jaylon Tyson had 15 and Evan Mobley and Nae'Qwan Tomlin both had 14.
A team that looks pretty tired now gets three days off for the first time this season.

Shorthanded #Cavs lead the Raptors 32-29 after the first quarter. Pretty balanced effort for Cleveland offensively. Lonzo Ball leads with six, Mobley, Tyson and Mitchell all have five, too. As strong of a start as they could've asked for considering the available players.

Some really good stuff from Lonzo Ball early on here. He's got a couple of made 3s and the #Cavs have a 17-15 lead midway through the first quarter. The Cavs are due for some 3-point shooting luck at some point. Maybe tonight is the night.

Donovan Mitchell has never played better, more complete basketball in his career. He’s taken his game to a new level and it’s evident on a nightly basis this season. The latest jump comes thanks to a lesson last May. open.substack.com/pub/theinsid...

Kenny Atkinson calls timeout to empty the bench with the #Cavs leading 116-99 over the Clippers. This ends another spectacular performance by Donovan Mitchell and a pretty nice win for a shorthanded Cavs team.

Evan Mobley's dunk off a nasty feed from Donovan Mitchell appeared to beat the third quarter buzzer and give the #Cavs a 92-79 lead. Mitchell is up to 30 points on 12-of-19 shooting, eight rebounds and four assists. He's been so, so good again tonight.

Tyrese Proctor beats the first quarter buzzer from deep to give the #Cavs a 27-24 lead over LA. He scored the last five points of the quarter for Cleveland. Donovan Mitchell leads with nine points and the Cavs defense (and rebounding) really tightened up over the final few min.

#Cavs beat the Pacers last night as Darius Garland returned (again) from a toe injury. It's clear that he's become the engine that makes this group go. He's the power strip the team needs in order to operate at its highest voltage. open.substack.com/pub/theinsid...
