    A friend of mine who lives in Portland but grew up in Cleveland as a Cavs fan was at the game tonight. He also thought the officiating was horrible against the Blazers.

    Maybe you are not talking about the people complaining about the officials. Maybe you are.

    I recorded the game and just watched it now. Sucks we lost, but they're better than us. LeBron is the best player in the game. Still, there were lots of fun things to watch. Great game by Greg Oden. He was active. That's all I ask of him. I loved watching both Oden and Outlaw block LeBron. And Bayless had a great stretch there in the 4th quarter and even played some decent defense on LeBron. I'll take this loss. 25-17. Utah, Dallas, and Phoenix all lost so we're still in 6th place. Let's win the next one.

    our defense turned them into a jump shooting team and they made most of them. simple as that.

    This is a good loss. we played hard and with effort

    I sure as shit think B-Roy should have had at least 3+ times at the free-throw line.

    It wasn't Batum that was schooled on Defending 'Bron, it was Outlaw....

    Yea, why would anyone complain about an injured player trying to go one-on-one all game long against a team that was shutting him down en rout to an 8-23 shooting night?

    Nate's rotations are perfect. He always knows how to use Oden effectively.

    Sure, we got the short-end of the calls. We knew that coming into the game. Why are we complaining about something we knew was coming and wasn't as bad as it could have been? Do you remember when Wade slipped and fell with the ball and was rewarded free throws? Now THAT was a bad call.
