CLEVELAND CAVALIERS VS. ORLANDO MAGIC INSTANT REACTION: Emoni Bates & Jaylon Tyson impressions

The Cleveland Cavaliers won't run the table in the Las Vegas summer league again.
The Orlando Magic jumped out to a 20-point halftime lead in the Cavs SL debut as Jordan Ott's squad had no answer for the Orlando offense.
Emoni Bates & Jaylon Tyson both were aggressive in their debuts. Tyson looked like what the Cavs had hoped from their first round pick. Bates had 9 first half points.
Tristan da Silva, the 18th overall pick by the Magic, had 13 first half points.

Orlando was just more talented

[@bossbusiness8137]

Orlando is going to shock a lot of peoples this year

[@wyatt8457]

With there G league talent? 😂 'stop it.plus they just got rid of a piece.

[@YourWorstNightmare3333]

@@wyatt8457AB and Jett are lottery picks. TDS was picked before Tyson and better than him. What G league talent you talking about? You will never beat the Magic in a series again.

[@ethangildone865]

Interesting breakdown from McNuggets. I liked Jaylon Tyson’s game today far more than Emoni’s. Tyson was cleaning glass, attacking and finishing well at the rim, also brought the ball up and got us in our sets more than I expected. Emoni did nothing but iso and take contested shots. McNuggets did say at the end he took more good things away from Tyson than anyone else but the actual breakdown didn’t really reflect that.

[@UltimateClevelandSportsShow]

I actually went back and watched the highlight cut ups after. Tyson did more little things well than I caught live. Definitely the brightest spot of the night for CLE - McNuggets

[@maniacslap1623]

As a Magic fan, this analysis was dope AF! Keep up the good work fams.

[@domenicac.giampaolo9277]

I did like what jaylon did today though😊

[@menotyou9779]

Tyson looked really good, his ability to move players while fighting for rebounds was impressive

[@domenicac.giampaolo9277]

@menotyou9779 still very early and he needs work but if he keeps working.....

[@bburd-jt8os]

Cavs should be looking at guys with size and length. Guys 7 ft and over for center and 6’8 and over for sfs

[@thacryinggame]

No. Instead, lets be midgets with middling athleticism. #2005

[@inandoutoftheabyss9953]

No player can be faulted for today. Today was CLEARLY due to a lack of trust in a system. Nobody can look good when theres no established system. This was worse than JBs offense.

[@DJRAKKK]

Orlando played pissed off took some 40 footers that didnt even touch the rim Went straight in the net. So it was kinda like........Cavs coaching staff just came together a week ago. You could tell.

[@YourWorstNightmare3333]

AB Jett TDS are shooters

[@chirocket4791]

Was hoping better from Emoni. Still forces up some shoots. Did execute a few pick and roll plays. Was disappointed on his work when his team mates took a shot. He just stands flat footed in place with his arms spread a little. Did not put his body on his man, or step towards the rim.

[@AndrewPolander]

Tyson...RB looks to be good...one knock on him was his loose handle...which we saw...plays more like a 2 than a 3....glad to see him knock down that last 3!

[@Jailoyal1]

I have a question, who picks the coach for the summer league?

[@louisrosario9522]

This is what Game 7 against Orlando is going to look like this season so get ready to cry and complain even more about your team!

[@ScorpionLee1]

Stop it Orlando ain't doing shit

[@louisrosario9522]

@@ScorpionLee1 🤣But getting all of your attention!🤔

[@ScorpionLee1]

@@louisrosario9522 nobody thinking about Orlando magic we're focusing on us.

[@chrishines45]

Jaylon Tyson seems to have an NBA ready Mind & Body. He will surely be an All Star soon.

[@robertstalnaker57]

Sometimes analysis of a game’s result has to shift from the Cavs to the opponent to explain what, why and how. 4 of 5 Orlando starters simply had more talent. It was expected Black & Jett Howard would shine, #6 & #11 lottery picks who both got experience last year. Rookie da Silva lived up to his resume. The 7’ footer Huff was a big positive surprise . Cavs simply got out gunned.

[@seamusmooney1308]

Emoni looked rough

[@pitt8367]

I saw Emoni get an assist or two. Pete Nance hit a couple of three's.

[@jayfiggs4656]

Absolutely no initiative on anyone too much passing like "Dude, you do something!"

[@jamesgamboa7192]

The sad part is they didn’t play Travers. Instead they play Bates who is just trying to get buckets

[@Harryjay6]

We have Nance again? Lol niiiice

[@mspeedm5849]

Tyson is a role player wing, with some nice playmaking ability and scoring chops. He isn't the missing sf. He isn't the stretch 4. So what is he there for? There were a plethora of better fits at the 3-4 position on the board. He must be a Levert replacement come trade deadline. Koby is not that good at drafting for fit on paper or even potential. Look at his record of picks. Sexton instead of SGA or MPJ or Mikal Bridges or Miles Bridges. The next draft he failed to Secure Hunter and settled for DG, but should have traded back and rode with Sexton for one more season. Could have taken PJ or Cam and been completely justified. Then later he takes another injury prone player in Windler followed by a headcase. He should have picked Claxton, Gafford or Bol. Next draft he leaves Vassell, Haliburton, Nesmith and Jaden McDaniels on the board for a project Iggy. Next draft he gets lucked into Mobley, but Barnes is slightly better offensively already. The next draft he takes a national champion, then trades him but should have taken his teammate in Braun and kept him. Then he drafts a center that will never suit up right before McGowens aka Vassell clone. Then the next draft the deepest in recent memory that all knowing Koby has no firsts. Yeah he is a genius.

[@user-bo4rr1cr8k]

Emoni is ready Darius and Donovan are our ball handlers we need his scoring speed 11:46 and attitude without him we score 50 as a team chill on the over reaction

[@thacryinggame]

OMG they are such an incompetent organization LMAO

[@menotyou9779]

Tyson alwo finished with 15 points

[@OliGrant-sw8by]

KUDOS to DJ Burns agent or whomever put out that story about him losing 70lbs😂😂😂. He looks EXACTLY THE SAME as he did at NC STATE. Burns got that OLIVER MILLER, GLEN BIG BABY DAVIS, JARED SULLINGER, look and play to his game which equates into not an extended longevity in the NBA

[@mickmoneybags]

Why would they let Mobley go?

[@OliGrant-sw8by]

Nepotism only goes so far. It’s not like he’s Bronny and Lebron can keep him on the team even if he sucks. Evan Mobley doesn’t have pull like that. If he did the Cavs also would’ve granted his rookie max extension a long time ago. Something is brewing behind the scenes with the MOBLEYS that may shock the Cavs fanbase 😮😮😮😮

[@AndrewPolander]

CPJ looked like he wanted to show the Cavs he can shoot the 3....that's not his game...just be yourself and move the ball CPJ!

[@themashugana9440]

Summer league is a joke. It's basically pick up basketball out there, so I wouldn't worry about team performance or even individual performances. The G League is much more structured basketball, and this is where both Bates and Tyson will play most of the season this year. Neither of them are getting meaningful NBA minutes with the Cavs this year. The roster is too deep with roll players right now, but hopefully both can fine tune things and be ready next year.

[@AndrewPolander]

Where was KOBY? Orlando got an executive interview....no Cavs interview at the main table?
