So far the Cavs are winning 29-25 but the team is not looking very good offensively so far.

Cavs by 8 at the half 44-36, but they are a mere 50% from the free throw line.

Cavs win by 23 but this was definitely not the offense that we saw earlier in the season.

We are missing our All Star Center...and one of our main bench guys...and it was a road game against a really bad team(sometimes those are the hardest games to get up for), and our point guard got into foul trouble and played 23 min....

and we still won by 23...I am not gonna complain about that...

the Nuggets game is a big one, they really need to make a statement by beating a good team on the road.

Key Points:

1) LeBron showed killer instinct tonight.

2) Our offense desperately needs bigs who can shoot - the offense is out of wack because we run pick and rolls/pop constantly and the opposing d is not guarding Ben or Andy on the pick and pop - See Antwan Jamison - yes I know he cant play D - but neither could Mo Will supposedly and hes turned out not to shabby on D with Mike Browns philosophy.

3) I actually watched the Celts game on ESPN vs the Hawks - Great game looked like ATL was gonna pull it out but Boston closed hard. They are looking very good right now......

It was nice to see JJ Hickson with 7 points on 3-3 FG, 5 rebounds, and 1 block in just 12 minutes of action.

That was probably the deadest arena I've ever heard. Even worse than Memphis.

Watching that game tonight, I can remember so vividly when we used to be Minnesota... Even had the same schmuck coach..

Which unfortunately lead to this..

And even worse, it lead to this...

However, that lead to this...(We deserved it)

And just to throw in, here's some of his plays from the first 3 seasons or so..(I can't believe this is already his 6th season... Some of these clips just seem so long ago...)
