[Post Game Thread] The Cleveland Cavaliers defeat the Atlanta Hawks 121-108 to take a 3-0 series lead

YoungProduct · 2016-05-07T01:39:26+00:00

"Up 8 at half and yet I still feel like we only have a 30% chance to win this game" - Hawks fan in the game thread summed up what we were all thinking

colourofinfinity · 2016-05-07T01:38:57+00:00

When you look at the box score and see Channing Frye has 27 points and a +28

skinnytrees · 2016-05-07T01:38:46+00:00

Channing Frye is the reason the Cavs won this game. And we needed it badly. What a game for him. Unreal.

jc-f · 2016-05-07T01:38:46+00:00

Kevin Love - 15 rebounds
LeBron James - 13 rebounds
Tristan Thompson - 13 rebounds

Cleveland was the true winner at the trade deadline when they acquired Frye.

kukukele · 2016-05-07T01:39:13+00:00

Kevin Love 11-0 in the playoffs now

constantvariables · 2016-05-07T01:39:28+00:00

Kyrie hit the reset button

johnkphotos · 2016-05-07T01:38:49+00:00

It's like being traded by Orlando literally makes you better. WTF FRYE?

HectorButler · 2016-05-07T01:40:53+00:00

Was that a... good defensive game by Kevin Love? As in good by actual standards not just good for him. Don't think i've ever seen him play so well on D, certainly in the second half

InPursuit0fHoppiness · 2016-05-07T01:38:47+00:00

JR smith made 2 3 pointers and cavs ended up with 21 3 pointers in the game. wtf

"We're not a 3 point shooting team"

Lebron James

DemonicDimples · 2016-05-07T01:39:04+00:00

Horford.. ALL STAR CENTER.. with 1 fucking rebound.. pathetic. Hawks front court lost the game/ 55-28 rebounds.

sokeydo · 2016-05-07T01:39:12+00:00

lebron with 24-13-8. I didn't even realize he was flirting with a triple double

evenber · 2016-05-07T01:45:14+00:00

This really hurts the Hawk's chance to win the championship.

IamWoldo · 2016-05-07T01:38:46+00:00

Cavs got 3's in Atlanta.

wsbull_35 · 2016-05-07T01:38:50+00:00

"Hey Atlanta, i gotcha a W....Oohh, you gotta be quicker than that"

byniri_returns · 2016-05-07T01:38:45+00:00

what the fuck was that fourth quarter

jeric13xd · 2016-05-07T01:38:52+00:00

TEAGUE LISTENED TO CHUCK LMAO

DeTecTiV_MiTenZ · 2016-05-07T01:45:18+00:00

LeBron/Love/Frye is as close to unguardable as it gets for a frontcourt.

raffieitswd · 2016-05-07T01:41:53+00:00

"Cavs won't have another game with 20+ threes"

2016-05-07T01:51:12+00:00

Just face it Eastern Conference, none of you can beat LeBron

MetalGearZEKE · 2016-05-07T01:38:57+00:00

Teague is such a bitch.

IanCaesars · 2016-05-07T01:38:53+00:00

Thompson's offensive boards and these three point shots were keeping Cavs in game and then LeBron James took over game in 4th quarter. That's impressive finish by Cavaliers.

HoboWithAGlock · 2016-05-07T01:39:50+00:00

Holy shit they almost broke the record again.

palagoon · 2016-05-07T01:38:51+00:00

This 2016 playoff cavaliers are the most fun team to watch. Haven't seen such a well oiled machine at 3's since the 2009 orlando magic.

PleaseDontDoxxMe · 2016-05-07T01:40:49+00:00

The way Lebron dicks down the Atlanta Hawks annually I almost thought Atlanta was the Chicago Bulls.

DJEasyDick · 2016-05-07T01:38:48+00:00

What an abysmal 4th quarter that was for the Hawks...wtf was that?

And whodathought that the Cavs would be more of a 3pt shooting team than the Warriors? I sure as hell didnt

Also, Teague is a punk lol. I dig hard basketball, but that was retarded

2016-05-07T01:40:25+00:00

Channing Frye has been a hell of a pick up for Cleveland. They have shooters everywhere and the ball movement is beautiful.

CurryTripper · 2016-05-07T01:38:49+00:00

Fucking garbage play by Teague at the end of the game. There's no room in the NBA for that kind of horseshit. Go play football if you want to shoulder check someone

Briand2714 · 2016-05-07T01:39:24+00:00

Anyone else get that feeling the Cavs are gonna win it all with the way they are playing.

noahsbun · 2016-05-07T01:38:52+00:00

Hawks were playing 8 on 5 the whole game and still lost

MeesterAndrew · 2016-05-07T01:40:29+00:00

Jesus, Cleveland looks unbeatable.

RVDV05 · 2016-05-07T01:38:49+00:00

The 2015-2016 Atlanta Hawks

For anyone wondering why Atlanta is a bad sports town this is why. Cavs end the game on a 27 -7 run in our house in a must win game. Really getting tired of being an Atlanta sports fan.

iPissVelvet · 2016-05-07T01:39:40+00:00

apology for poor english

when were you when hawk die

i was sat at home watch game when lebron ring

‘hawk is die’

‘no’

Akronite14 · 2016-05-07T03:26:24+00:00

FUN FACT: The Hawks had their first double digit lead in 11 playoff games against the Cavs tonight. Still got crushed.

We just have their number. As a Cleveland fan I try not to get too cocky, because we have been on the receiving end so much. But damn this shit feels good and I never want it to end.

Bystronicman08 · 2016-05-07T01:38:53+00:00

Jeff teage is a bitch with that move. Can't wait for the Hawks to get swept now.

seeannwiin · 2016-05-07T01:39:53+00:00

the fan in the end got decked so hard he went back to round 1 of the playoffs

ygduf · 2016-05-07T01:40:02+00:00

Class act by lebron checking on the fans after a completely unnes shove from Teague

CrazyFart · 2016-05-07T01:45:13+00:00

Really hope the Cavs' 3 point shooting is sustained through to the Finals. We're red hot right now, with almost everyone stepping up. Channing Frye ftw

manicdthenomad · 2016-05-07T01:38:53+00:00

Channing shoot me in the face Frye

jaynay1 · 2016-05-07T01:39:05+00:00

I had no confidence in Atlanta to win this game at any point.

They're eating Fryed Hawk in Cleveland

argo1230 · 2016-05-07T01:45:08+00:00

Cavs are fucking scary.

DonCairo · 2016-05-07T01:39:13+00:00

Playoff Cavs are a very good basketball team

McBurgerQueen · 2016-05-07T01:45:25+00:00

Cavs def looking like they can compete vs gsw or Spurs in the finals

jace10 · 2016-05-07T01:39:12+00:00

Jeez what did Horford do to TT. 1 rebound all game.

Derdota · 2016-05-07T01:42:29+00:00

Channing Frye is a god. I think he's better than MJ

thumbtack0 · 2016-05-07T01:50:14+00:00

Is there a better team at killing time than the Cavs? Time and time again, the Cavs will get 2-3 offensive rebounds in a row at the end of games

themariokarters · 2016-05-07T01:39:07+00:00

Teague with the bush league move. Atlanta played great, but Cleveland is too damn good

jmh0697 · 2016-05-07T01:39:26+00:00

When the flops stop working the Hawks were lost.

TwoTenths · 2016-05-07T01:38:51+00:00

The Cavs won this one despite the Hawks and the refs best effort.

Curryboy2day · 2016-05-07T01:44:04+00:00

Cavaliers got 18 offensive rebounds what the shit

2016-05-07T01:45:04+00:00

21 threes? Jesus!
