    LeBron is trying to guard Roy. Roy is drawing double teams everytime he dribble toward the hoop, it appers.

    Travis fumbles the ball out of bounds. Jeez.

    Travis hasn't played well at all. But, he has proven that he can turn it on at any time. Any other night, it would be a good idea to not risk that and play Nic a little bit more. But, since we are shorthanded, we are going to have to give him the chance. He can turn his game around. It has happened so many times in the past.

    The "photo" thing doesn't bother me because it is a team thing, having fun together. I kind of liked it.

    OTOH, I think Lebron's thing with the powder is extremely arrogant and annoying.. just drawing attention to himself.

    36-34 at the half? I'll take it!

    36 to 34. Ugly, slow game, but at least we have a lead, even if it's just 2.

    We may have played some extremely ugly ball, but we completely mucked the game up and slowed the shit out of the game. Honestly, that was the only way to hang in in a game like this where we are shorthanded and against the best home team in the league. Good job.
    We are up 2.

    Channing's interview was great. He talked about us being physical to prepare for the playoffs and to grind out a victory.

    Does anyone (anyone) really want Frye getting 50% more shots than the next-leading guy?

    I'm glad that he hit some shots, but him getting 10 FGA in a half is ridiculous.

    Beautifully ugly game so far.

    I hope the second half is just the same.

    Looks to me like the Cavs are doubling off of Channing. He has to take those shots - and make a decent percentage of them - in order to make the Cavs pay for it.

    He's a streaky shooter Ed. If he's hitting his shots you might as well keep going to him.

    If he was 1-10, you might have a point, but he's been one of the more productive players on the court thus far. Then again, you are the one who thought Ike was a better player than Frye.

    We've put ourselves in position to win this game. Cavs shot horribly in the first half and that probably won't continue. Need stay focused on Defense and keep taking it to basket.
