Nobody caring about the games themselves anymore in our favorite sports doesn’t paint a great picture of the future.

“We’re gonna figure it out one day.” On the heels of a strange game, Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland pinpointed the #Cavs most maddening characteristic after their latest loss.

FINAL: Warriors 99, #Cavs 94.

Mobley inbounds to Mitchell on the curl, and he misses the triple. You live with that every time. #Cavs are gonna lose to the Warriors on their home floor on a night where absolutely nothing fell.

Quinten Post has been an absolute gem tonight protecting the paint.

It's been a nightmare-ish week for De'Andre Hunter. He's better than this. #Cavs

Doing what he did in Philly and now tonight in Cleveland, Pat Spencer may be that MF he says he is. Competitor.

END 3Q: Warriors 72, #Cavs 62 GSW: Post 12p, 7r, 2a, 2blk. Hield 9p, 6r, 3a. Santos 9p, 3r, 2a, blk. Jackson-Davis 8p, 5r, blk, stl. CLE: Garland 14p, 4r, 2a, 2stl. Mobley 12p, 7r, blk. Mitchell 13p, 1r, 1a, blk. Tyson 9p, 7r, 3a.

I'm gonna get killed for this, but Cleveland's process has been completely fine this game. I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if the #Cavs won because they shot over 35% in the fourth quarter.

I'll let you know when I'm displeased with their play, and I crushed the #Cavs this week in my column. But this is not an effort thing tonight. This is flat-out missing close-range shots, and that is literally it.

#Cavs getting booed as Santos knocks down a corner three & Atkinson calls for time at 4:04. They're actually outscoring Warriors in the paint 32-26 & outrebounding 41-36. It's the cold spell that's killing 'em because Golden State is 9 of 26 from three.

Dude behind me just screamed GO TO THE HOOP. I want to turn around and say, "What are you watching?" Lol. #Cavs

Big reason #Cavs are outrebounding the Warriors 39-32 is Bryant and Tomlin, who have combined for 13. Unfortunately, Cleveland is missing everywhere. Yes, they're driving the basketball. Wine & gold trail 58-51 with 6:10 left & Golden State in the bonus.

Well, Jaylon Tyson woke up a crowd that was lulled to sleep. Three-ball from Mitchell and then a thunderous right-hand slam in transition from Hunter after a steal. #Cavs

The #Cavs scored 130 last night on the San Antonio Spurs and have 36 points in the first half against this version of the Warriors tonight. Try to explain the NBA to me.

HALF: Warriors 45, #Cavs 36 GSW: Post 10p, 5r, 1a, blk. Hield 9p, 5r, 2a. Santos 6p, 3r, 1a. Podziemski 5p, 2r, 2a, stl. CLE: Mobley 10p, 5r, blk. Garland 10p, 2r, 2a, 2stl. Mitchell 8p, 1r. Tomlin 2p, 7r, 2stl.

Golden State starting to see some outside shots go down now. Gary Payton II is giving 'em good minutes as per usual. Pat Spencer really is the one who turned the tide, though. He spent the whole first quarter in foul trouble. #Cavs down 39-31.

It's not as if the #Cavs aren't getting to the paint. It's just that the team is 7 of 23 in there right now at the 4:44 mark. That's a struggle.

I mean, nobody can make a shot, a layup, a putback, or anything that isn't a dunk. This is wild. The Warriors cut into it with the Pat Spencer minutes. Buddy Hield has nine points. #Cavs up 26-25 with 6:45 left in the first half.

END 1Q: #Cavs 18, Warriors 12 GSW: Hield 3p, 4r, 2a. Post 3p, 2r. Moody 2p, 2r. CLE: Mobley 6p, 3r. Garland 4p, 2r, 2a, stl. Bryant 2p, 5r, 1a.

It hasn't gotten any prettier for either squad. Defensive struggle, I guess you could call it? It's 14-12 in favor of #Cavs with 3:08 left in the opening frame.

Bowling shoe ugly shooting start for both teams. After a Darius Garland-Evan Mobley oop and a Quinten Post three, neither the #Cavs nor the Warriors could make a damn thing for like four minutes -- inside or outside. It's 6-5 at the 6:55 mark.

#Cavs vs. Warriors game thread!

Starters: Warriors - Spencer, Hield, Richard, Kuminga, Post #Cavs - Garland, Mitchell, Tyson, Hunter, Allen

Warriors are going to be extremely shorthanded vs. #Cavs without Stephen Curry, Jimmy Butler, Draymond Green, Al Horford, Seth Curry, De’Anthony Melton, and Alex Toohey.

Donovan Mitchell and Jaylon Tyson are funny as hell 😆😆😆 #Cavs

Winning their first home game since Nov. 23, the #Cavs may have found their most balanced five-man combination in Friday's 130-117 victory over the Spurs.

FINAL: #Cavs 130, Spurs 117.

See, this is a really good second half from Lonzo. Active hands, anticipating opponents' decisions before they happen, moving the basketball. No forcing it tonight.

Wade with a sweet swing over to Tomlin for his first three of the game. Qwan's got 13 points and has been cutting all night. Dean's had the selfless passes going nicely with five assists. #Cavs up 117-102 with 8:11 left.

END 3Q: #Cavs 108, Spurs 91 SAS: Vassell 27p, 3r, 2a, blk. Fox 22p, 6a, 4r, stl. Johnson 12p, 4r, blk, stl. Sochan 10p, 4r, 1a. CLE: Tyson 24p, 4r, 2blk, 1a. Mitchell 21p, 5a, 2stl, 1r. Mobley 13p, 7r, 5a, 2blk. Wade 12p, 7r, 4a. Porter 11p, 4r, 2stl, 1a.

Donovan Mitchell up on his feet clapping as Jaylon Tyson continues to attack and play phenomenal basketball for the #Cavs.

San Antonio has yet to record a rebound eight minutes into the period. #Cavs have 12. That shows you what made shots can do...

Porter-Tyson-Wade may be the trio of the night. Each is playing a part. #Cavs are up 92-81 with 5:42 left in the third quarter.

The #Cavs vet-youth mixture of Porter-Mitchell-Tyson-Wade-Mobley is very logical.

Cavs open with Wade instead of Tomlin to start the half. Concerted effort to get Hunter involved out of the locker room. Two plays getting him running off screens and getting to his spots. #Cavs take a 75-74 lead after a Tyson point-blanker from Mobley.

Devin Vassell and De'Aaron Fox are doing the brunt of the damage. It doesn't feel like the #Cavs are playing sloppy or getting run out of the gym. They've got 40 PITP. But those nine offensive boards have cost them 18 points from San Antonio. Jeremy Sochan's been a machine.

HALF: Spurs 72, #Cavs 64 SAS: Vassell 25p, 3r, 2a, blk. Fox 15p, 4r, 4a. Johnson 9p, 3r, blk. Sochan 8p, 4r, 1a. CLE: Mobley 13p, 4r, 2blk, 1a. Mitchell 15p, 4a. Porter 8p, 2r, 2stl. Tyson 8p, 4r.

Kelly Olynyk is still beloved in his second home of Cleveland, Ohio.

Luke Travers with a beautiful wrap dribble goes left to right to get past Dylan Harper for the scoop finish. I've got to say, I didn't know that was in the cards!

Spurs take the lead right back in the next minute after a David Jones-Garcia triple (shout out to summer league!) and a corner trey from Lindy Waters. Donovan Mitchell and Kenny Atkinson can't believe he didn't get a reach-in call on that last drive.

Luke Travers enters the game for the first time to start the quarter. He's alongside Porter, Mitchell, Tyson, and Mobley. Less than a minute, and the #Cavs have a 36-35 lead after two Mobley jams.

END 1Q: Spurs 35, #Cavs 30 SAS: Vassell 13p, 1a, blk. Johnson 7p, 1r, blk. Sochan 6p, 3r. CLE: Mitchell 9p, 1r, stl. Porter 5p, 1r. Mobley 4p, 2r. Tyson 4p, 1r, blk.

#Cavs went to 2-3 zone that last possession to try and wall off the paint against Spurs drivers, and it worked. They trail San Antonio 30-20 though. Communication on cuts/spots is a little off. Craig Porter Jr. and Thomas Bryant helping reset things.

Devin Vassell's off to a terrific start and he's picking up Donovan Mitchell full-court. I haven't minded the #Cavs' offensive process out of the gate. Lots of chances at the rim. Spurs up 18-14 about halfway through the first.

#Cavs vs. Spurs game thread!

Starters: Spurs - Fox, Vassell, Champagnie, Barnes, Biyombo #Cavs - Mitchell, Tyson, Hunter, Tomlin, Mobley

Evan Mobley is available for #Cavs vs. Spurs.

Evan Mobley is here and will go through pregame warmups to see whether or not he’ll give it a go for #Cavs. Kenny Atkinson said he’s under the weather and missed morning shootaround.

“It's not going back the other way.” Other than injuries and inconsistent mental toughness, there's an elephant in the room that demands more urgency from the #Cavs.
