And Silas sits Lebron, Booz, and Mcinnis again all at the same time, thus letting the opponent back in the game rather than going for the knockout. Please stop doing this Silas!
49/45 Cavs with 2:11 left in the 2nd Why would the refs give the Bulls more calls? I could not agree more redscoon, I am fed up with Wagner forcing up those 3's too.
Bron is dominating this game. Boozer and Z are the best pf and c i have seen play this year, if they can keep this up ill be wowed. Boxscore at the half anyone?
God, the Cavs need to go for the juggular. They have let opponents come back so many times this year. The key to their success these past 6 games has been their 4th quarter play. Let's just hope that they keep that up tonight.
And forcing there way back in it with the Cavs getting lazy on the defensive boards. LeBron is struggling with his shot, while again Antonio Davis continually hitting his jumper.
CRAP! I slept through the entire first half! I see we have a 7 point lead at the half I can see.... anything important any of you can fill me in on please? Thanks in advance.
Miami up on New Orleans 20-13 at the start of the second Washington hold a 7 point lead over the Knicks at the end of the first! Z with a couple of big blocks to finish the quarter with 14 points, 11 boards and 3 blocks! James and Booz as usual the other contributors although LeBrons shot not on tonight.
Cavs up 56/49 @ the half Ira...my goodness that was nasty.. James has 10, 1, and 5 Boozer has 10, 1, and 6 Z has 14 and 11 (few blocks as well) Crawford has 15, 3, and 2 Hinrich has 4, 1, and 6 Davis has 8 and 4 boards Cavs shooting 42% to the Bulls 41.2% Cavs have 9 turnovers to the Bulls 5 These Bulls are just so pesky against us, I don't understand it.
lebron can't rely yet on hitting his jumpers the way he did vs indiana... the bulls d is doing well at collapsing around him and rejecting not only his jumpshots but his layups/dunks
hey all...wow James gets 3 shots blocked in the first half. Whats up with that? Overall decent first half but would have liked a better 2nd quarter
Crawford has hit some deep jumpers off the dribble, after doing stutter moves and crosses. That's a terribly hard shot to make (not dribbling shots in mid or close distance but from afar). I thought Curry would be the real terror before this game but I was wrong.
I think we just have trouble against teams with a good backcourt that can nail the 3s - our frontcourt is good enough to hang with most teams and we match up well vs teams that rely on a banging frontcourt, but when the other team has a fast offense and has guards that can shoot the long ball, we seem to struggle we rely quite a bit more on the fastbreak than many people realize
We need to get the ball back into the post to start the 3rd. Booz and Z were hurting them early there, so we need to revisit it. Turnovers in that half were a concern, as was letting them on the boards in the second. We were destroying them rebounding wise but when Chandler came in, he seemed to get whatever he wanted!
Nah, we had a 14 point lead and let them right back in. I still want a blowout, Cavs can get what they want tonight if they just don't get lazy again.
just when you think wagner is coming around he shows his youthful shot selection. granted its a business and silas apparantly likes to keep the game close by removing lebron, z and booz at once, this act is getting OLD. please paul, knock someout out for crying out loud. ira, you're still by far my least favorite cav, but for 30 seconds i was not pissed off with the fact you were on the floor, great slam ira.
