Rough opening quarter for the #Cavs on both ends of the floor. Lots of missed open shots or good looks. They shot 7 of 25 (28%) from the field and 3 of 10 (30%) from 3. Darius Garland is the only Cav in double-digits with 10 pts.

#Cavs trail the Wolves 40-20 after the first quarter. A sleepy, lifeless period of play for a short-handed Cleveland team missing its best player. Bad shooting on offense and poor effort on defense. – 6:36 PM

Wolves just played probably their best quarter of the season.
D’Angelo Russell was awesome — 15 points (3 for 3 from 2, 3 for 3 from 3) and 4 assists.
Wolves 37, Cavs 20 at the end of the 1st – 6:34 PM

D’Angelo Russell catches a spark — 4 made shots in the first 6 minutes — and the ball movement picks up through the entire offense.
Finch also went with JMac alongside DLo in his first rotation, and the combo of the point guards in the backcourt perked up the passing, too. – 6:29 PM

D’Angelo Russell is filling it up. 5-5 for 12 pts in the first quarter. Also making some really good passes and decisions. Great start for him and the Wolves – 6:27 PM

#Cavs seem to be missing some pretty open looks that have been going down early in the year. Kevin Love is 0-of-4 from deep as he checks out for the first time tonight. – 6:24 PM

Darius Garland hits two of his first three attempts from beyond the arc. Has to feel good after a rough couple of shooting games for him. #Cavs. – 6:15 PM

If DLo does bounce back into resembling the type of player hoped for when the Gobert trade went down, then Finch will deserve credit for staying confident in the original vision — and significant criticism if that original vision proves to have been a bad idea. – 5:01 PM

I believe in RJ Barrett’s athleticism and ability but his lack of progress in developing a feel for the game is alarming at this point. And he’s not making those like me look very good who advocated him not being moved for Donovan Mitchell. – 2:40 PM
