Sorry, got it up a little late, but there was no thread for the game. Been a pretty good game so far for the Cavs. They had a lead up to 20 points, but the Mavericks cut it down to 12 points. Anytime you hold the Mavericks to just 30 half time points, you've got to be happy. But if your the Mavericks, you've also got to be happy, still in this game, when only shooting 20 some%. Slow start for the Mavs, but don't think they will continue that, through the whole game. They have plenty of fire power in Dirk, Terry, and others, so the Cavs can't sleep on them. The Cavs have been known to be a pretty bad defensive team, so their defense better not let up in the second half, and lose this game. They need a win, after getting spannked by the Mavs in their last meeting, and also getting spanked by the Kings and losing to the Bulls in OT. They don't want to lose another and lose ground in the playoff hunt.
You know, I don't get it. Snow is not productive at all on the offense end, has four fouls, and McInnis STILL has not gotten any minutes. What is the reasoning for this Malone? It makes no sense to me. And the Mavericks are within 4 points. And now Traylor gets ejected from the game, with 2 technical fouls. What is going on here! And now Gooden! Whats going on!!!
Horrible call on the Traylor block. However, good call or bad call, Traylor and Gooden have to keep their composure.
Lebrawn At the end of the 3rd quarter LeBron James now has 24 points and has played all 36 minutes of the first 3 quarters. Dallas is only down one 60-59 Both teams are shooting under 40% so far, just terrible. LBJ has 6 boards and 4 assists also.
If Brendan Malone wasn't such a lame duck on the bench and actually interacted with the refs AT ALL, maybe people like tractor and gooden wouldn't be blowing up like that. The guys sits there and does nothing bu tell LeBron to go play. Anyone who said firing Silas was good is crazy. Even if they win this game.
jea <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Lebronflyinhigh:</div><div class="quote_post">Cavs Win!!!!!!!!!!!</div> Nice win for the Cavs, LBJ finished with 37 points, 10 boards and 7 assists. In the final quarter Cleveland outscored the Mavs 40-21. when his team needs it LBJ seems to really step up and take over. In a game the Cavs needed to prevent sliding even further he played a complete game and had one of the better games of his career even without traylor and gooden for most of the game. The kid is simply phenomanal.

Lebron did really good playing PG and bringing the ball up the court.

LBJ showed his extreme versatility throughout the game playing the 1,2 and 3 positions and excelling the whole time.
