It wasn't just him... but Nailon had a TERRIBLE first half. 0-2 shooting, 3 turnovers, 2 fouls, and a missed FT in 9 minutes of "craption".
Hotlanta just dominated the Cavaliers in the second quarter better than the Cavaliers did them in the first. :: faints ::
How the hell are we down 1 at the half! We played 10 minutes of the 1st then clocked off! Nailon making dumb play after dumb play! He shouldn't see the floor again tonight! Missing free throws! How did they score 36 points??? Its the Hawks people!
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Skywzrd:</div><div class="quote_post">I don't like Jackson. His numbers have never been that impressive, Karma. He seems to play the Cavaliers tough, though.</div> Pop brought the best out of him last season and has carried on that this year. He is improving and is becoming a pretty good scorer. Hit plenty of huge shots in the playoffs last year. On a playoff team he can become a very dangerous guy.
It's agreed that the cavs played subpar that second quarter, but the refs seemed to be calling some ticky tack fouls there to help atlanta back into it. No putting it all on the refs, the cavs did let them back into this one too.
Did I see Silas sitting Lebron, Boozer, and Mcinnis all at the same time to start the 2nd? For the love of God, why won't he learn that you can't take all your offense out at one time and expect to not let the other team make a run. If the Cavs choke this one away after having a 20 point lead, it will be easily our worst loss of the season. We get to 3 straight wins and then play like crap in the 4th game. We've still got games against the Mavs, Spurs, Nets, etc. We can not afford to lose any more games to bad squads like we did to the Bulls last week. This is a must win.
Kapono was the only one who deserved to have his head up after that debacle! Didn't realise the game ended when you have a 20 point lead in the 1st! I can understand a run being made, but to lose it completely is unacceptable for a team making a serios run at the playoffs! At least Phili are getting done!
This is definatly a must win. The season doesnt get any easier and we need to pound them inside the paint. That is the ONLY way we will win. Take a look at the 1st quarter, we dominated them in the paint. Give the damn ball to Z.
Back to the basics, and better substitution patterns! Ollie has seemingly gone into his shell of late! Shows no authority whatsoever!
I'm tracking this game on a laptop. On the way home from the races so haven't got much but the numbersw. But who in the hell is supposed to be taking care of Jackson
Just win this one please.... that's all that I ask.... I don't have much to live for in terms of sports. Jackson is 9-21 which isn't exactly domination.
Boozer and James are starting to step up again, hopefully we can get a comfortable lead back before the start of the 4th.
Phili with a massive 4th to pretty much wrap up their match with Milwaukee! Must get this win, teams around us are getting hot!
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Skywzrd:</div><div class="quote_post">My motto will never change. Just win, baby!</div> I feel like George Costanca when he asked that couple not to name their baby "seven" when I'm watching the Cavaliers. "I don't have anything in the world... I just want this one thing...."
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting PG2:</div><div class="quote_post">The cavs blew a 20 point lead OMG and against the Atlanta hawks too.......................</div> Yep. Looked really bad doing it too. ---------- LeBron with the personal 6-0 run!!!! Back up to a 7 point lead.
