2026 East 1st Round Playoffs: (4) Cleveland Cavaliers Vs. (5) Toronto Raptors

Lol. Harden is almost 37 years old. This isn't his team it's Mitchell's. Anyone expecting Harden at this stage to ball out is absolutely delusional. Mitchell is the one in his prime and the one getting paid to be the guy It's time for him and Mobley to show something. Mobley 100% needs to make up for literally giving game 6 away.

 

What if Mitchell struggles? Will Harden just disappear,
I really want to see how this plays out

 

I full expect both Harden and Mitchell to struggle today. The Raptors have a lot of athletic rangy defensive guys and they have been giving the two of them fits all series long.

 

If the Cavs lose and crash out this summer. Works on trade machine

 

Mitchell has played well at home, really sucked in Toronto

Home
27 ppg on 51% FG

Road
19ppg on 36% FG

Also he has only attempted 14 free throws in the whole series

 

Mobley picking up where he left off in game 6. He's got to be better.

 

Raps hitting everything

 

Donovan Mitchell has been awful this series, and he’s not hurt

 

Mobley has been right behind him. Although I like Mobleys assertiveness today so far.

 

It's a shame dumbass Stone traded the 2nd round pick that ended up being Jamal Shead for headcase AJ Griffin who didn't even make it to the opening roster. You had all the Houston people including me begging for Stone to pick the local UH product. He would've been perfect...plays the tenacious defense that Udoka craves while also being a great shooter. I'm guessing Stone didn't even scout him though.

 

Shead is balling.

 

playoff Harden in full effect

 

Dean Wade 0 points and a -16 in 12 minutes

Donovan Mitchell 7 points on 9 shots

Evan Mobley 6 points and 4 turnovers

only guys somewhat showing up are Merrill, Strus, Tyson, and Harden

 

I was just thinking while watching the halftime show, I don’t think Carmelo Anthony ever played in a game 7

 

Rockets offered full Mle to Dean Wade before they got denied and it went to DFS.

also it’s time to start saying, Jalen Green is better than Evan Mobley.

 

We did for real? I don’t remember that, but yikes…Stone avoided a L just to take one anyways

 

I know. Just shows you how dumb Stone is in evaluating talent. Lol


Before the 2025 NBA Draft, the Houston Rockets pursued a trade for Cavaliers forward Dean Wade, offering a significant package that likely included a full mid-level exception extension (approx. $14M/year). The Cavaliers declined the offer for the versatile forward. Following this, Houston pivoted to sign Dorian Finney-Smith.

 

holy sh*t…wow

Rockets are screwed with this dude at the helm

 

Here, comes, JAMES HARDEN

 

Former should have been Rocket (Jarrett Allen) having a good game.
