Ahh yes...Good times. The New York Knicks are in town - and their media - and you knows what that means. Well, tonight, not a lot. LeBron James did not speak to the media before the game, standing fast to his pledge of not talking about this summer during the season.
Ok, no Free Agency talk, how about the return of Larry Hughes? That should be fun, right? Nope - Hughes is out of the game with turf toe.
Anything else? Sure there is. There is another chance to remind LeBron that Cleveland is HOME and where he belongs. It is also another chance for LeBron to see just how bad the Knicks are - or, more importantly, just how far away they are from being a contender.
GO CAVS!
3-in the Key
1. The Cavaliers are off to their 2nd best 51-game start in team history(40-11). The team record, set last year, is 41-10. The Cavaliers are 28-6 in their last 34 games, best in the NBA.
2. Along with having the most wins in the NBA, the Cavaliers also lead the NBA in point differential(+7.4)
3. The Cavaliers have held their last 4 opponents under 90 points. The Cavs defense leads the NBA in defensive field goal percentage(.430) and opponent scoring(93.7)

I got a message for the Associated Parker and Boobie
This game is about you guys. It’s not about LeBron, it’s about you two. Both of you were snubbed by the NBA from the 3 point competition, and look who’s in the starting lineup for the Knicks…it’s one of the guys the NBA favored over you. Use that incentive as extra fuel. Use this game as an opportunity to hit threes that Danilo Gallinari never would or could. Embarrass him. Make a statement to the NBA and the Knicks.

5 threes a piece for Boobie and Parker..
That would be nice…

Given the Cavs recent history
I wonder what is in store for us tonight? A new record for three pointers? Been there,done that. LeBron with 15 assists and playing the point? Ditto.
Might be an ordinary win over one of the dreggs of the NBA or, something else?
In any event,….I’ll watch just to be a “WITNESS”
So I told her," I'll be nicer if you try to be smarter!'..That was a mistake.

I just got done watch a bunch of re-runs of the past couple years’ Dunk Contests.
Nate Robinson of course was there, but personally I think Gerald Green’s Blow Out the Candle Dunk was just amazing. That, and the Dwight’s dunk while behind the backboard, literally. All in all, the scoring is very skewed, inconsistent, and somewhat incomprensible.

Well, anything’s possible. I don’t discount the Lakers conceivably doing so, regardless of their struggles of late. Either way, I feel confident that the Cavs can beat any team on any floor in a series this year. Something I did not feel last year. I felt home court was imperative last year.

Well, I just don’t get how anyone who follows the NBA even remotely can not see just how this team is different than years past. Much bigger, much stronger, different lineups, matchups…Lebron is Lebron, but now he has much, much more freedom to do what he does, and teams have alot more to worry about precisely so they CAN’T just focus on Lebron. If you focus on him our other players can and will beat you…it’s been proven time and time again. And with the return of West, Williams, and Powe they’re only going to bet better.

He was restricted too, which didn’t really help, though it would have been doubtful that the Knicks would have matched a more lucrative offer. He suffered because too many teams were so paranoid about taking on contracts that would effect those teams chances at this year’s free agent class (which I think when its all said and done will look like a terrible strategy for most of these teams). I’d take Lee at the 10 million a year he asked over Bosh at his max contract without a doubt.

Defense is a bit sloppy right now (as John beats me to it), the lineup has something to do with it, Moon and Williams are both athletic and long, but defensive skill is still something they need to develop, and Lebron was a bit lackadasical on the drive by Harrington two possessions ago.

I understand to a degree that with Mo Williams and West out, that Lebron will run the point in the closing minutes, but to not run plays, at least pick and rolls with Andy or going down to Shaq in the post is unacceptable.

…sometimes, I sit there and think……. why do we do this…. then he makes it, and I think, ah yes that’s why.

Anyone else ever have that feeling?
Like: “What the f*$% are we doing?” The we hit a crazy shot. And it’s like. “Oh, ok.”

its unsettling even if they win. Because the offense becomes less “efficient” and they would simply be better to continue to run the offense. Now I don’t mind spreading the floor and running pick and roles with Andy or pick and pops with Z or Mo, but the Lebron pounding the ball with the rest of the team standing around is not an efficient offense no matter how much Lebron believes that he can score “at will” (though I love the fact that he believes that about himself).

this was two games by two different teams…The first half they were the team that can win the Championship…the second half they were the team Orlando beat last year…that can’t even start again

come on….they lost their mojo in the second half….that was a defensive letdown and offensive shutdown….I would not read into it anything more than that.

true, although the ole’ Lebron on 5 is pretty rare these days…hate seein it again…flashback to last years playoffs and San Antonio…even when we coast/lose interest this year it never really resorts to that again…

ball movement stopped completely..JJ (was he even in in the 4th?) was non existent (JOe Smith last year)…their three point gunners were wide open…THAT was why Orlando beat the Cavs and THAT was the game the Cavs played for about 15 min of the third and fourth quarters tonight

Hell, not even that…it was 2006 Detroit and San Antonio in the playoffs.
