we're scoring but so are they! wagner is playing his offense like he should cavs up by 15, 47-32, with 2 z free throws on the way
wags ive been waitin awhile for this kind of effort, he needs a confidence builder like this 1. we are playing well right now, now lets avoid our traditional let down and not allow toronto back in the game.
Wagner, 7 points, 3 assists, 3-3 from the field With D-Wagz on his game, this will be hard for Toronto to win, Cavs just have options everywhere.
Wagner has better shot selection tonight than usual. None of his shots taken thus far were particularly difficult or jaw-dropping attempts. Plus he's passing the ball tonight and has 2 assists and if he keeps it up, could have 4-5 by the time it's over. I hope Silas demands this more from Wagner. Don't get happy and say "Nice job," be harder like "You better do this everytime out."
How about Wags with 3 assists and no turnovers. A little out of the ordinary. That happen as often as 2 20ft jumpers from Ollie. Well that happened too. Lakers up 5 on Boston in the 2nd. <--------- How good is this guy? Z is on 2 fouls! Sit him for the remainder of the second. Please maintain this lead! Force them to panic and start rushing shots.
look at those offensive boards, we are destroying them inside, we've got both boozer and z on the floor, give them the ball! especially with z 8/9 and those weren't all just easy layups or putbacks either!
boston has taken the lead on the lakers, miami new orleans starts in 5 minutes. cavs are in good shape right now, i like our game tonight
Toronto back in it you say..... Hell no sayz Z. He's da man. How good does this team flow with McInnis. Damn fine pickup. Give them a rap, so they both pick up their 3rd. James and Booz need to step up in their absence!
60/47 Cavs up @ the half Z has 18, 4, and 2 Boozer has 8, 9, and 1 James has 9, 1, and 2 McInnis has 6 and 5 dimes Williams has 4, 5, and 1 Carter has 11, 2, and 2 on 4-9 shooting Only things that can be problems are the 3 fouls each on Z and J-Mac Cavs shot 58.1% to the Raps 46.5%
60-47 at the half to the good guys. Back to back 30 point quarters. Even though Z scored a couple of basket after picking up his 2nd, I was frustrated that Silas kept him out there. Now he is on 3, which will play on his mind. Great effort from the bench, scoring 15 points at a nice clip. McInnis and Z were doing the job, while James chipped in late with some key baskets. Booz, is just being Booz. He is a rock. Must keep in Marshalls face.
We have seen this before fellas, Cavs must keep attacking the basket and not even think about killing time. Toronto won't stop chucking it up from deep, that is how they play, I want more hands in their faces.
Great half. Just some random thoughts..... Whats up with that "early bird" commercial airing on Cleveland television? That guy has got to be getting paid well to be humiliated like that. Whats up with the jerk with the horn, who keeps honking it during Cavalier free throws? It's very annoying to me, I dunno about the players. See Nailon pulled up the headband and can see now. Hopefully it translates into another good game.
LeBron's been relatively quiet in the first half, yet the Cavaliers hold a 13 point lead. I'm expecting LeBron to explode in the second half, but whether that's enough to finish Toronto off, remains to be seen.
The Raptors are hanging tough. They hit some contested jump shots in the first half that aren't going to fall all game, so as long as we limit the easy baskets and keep up the intensity we should be fine. We got away from feeding the ball to Z in the 2nd quarter. Z always has a huge first and then scores about the same amount in the final 3 as he does in the first. We need to keep feeding him. Wagner looked good off the bench until he forced up that 3. I could see the hook coming quickly after that. Lebron is taking the ball to the hoop nicely, but we don't seem to be getting any calls around the rim. If we keep attacking, eventually we'll get them. Does Vince take the game seriously? Everytime he touches the ball he is trying to make the highlight reel. Instead of just taking it to the hoop quicky and with agressiveness like Lebron, he does about 3 crossovers then wildly does a 180 in midair and tries to find somebody to bail him out. He looks like he's playing in an all star game instead of battling for a playoff spot. Thank God Lebron doesn't do that junk.
LMAO juice, thats some great stuff. I hate who ever has that horn, I would sure find a good place to shove it.
Im relying on you guys to paint me a picture of the game because i cant see it. Is LeBron doing well? Good God when was the last time the cavs scored 60 in a half.
