It will be interesting to see how big the crowd will be since this snowstorm hit yesterday. Cavs looking to sweep the Pacers for the first time since the 92-93 season. How many points will LeBron drop today? Go Cavs.

We need this game
New guys need to start picking up their play, they've been here long enough they should have some idea of where to be at on the floor

well LeBron brought his game as usual. Now that was a nice dunk. Good thing the Pacers are just ice cold so far. I would like to see Delonte get a little more aggressive with his shot.

Mike Brown is so stubborn with this AV/Ben Wallace combo.
It doesn't work on offense, Lebron ends up having to do everything because Devin Brown isn't a threat either.
It's 2 on 5 offense

Andy playing better today

Where's this ball movement been? AV looking for a double double early in this game. Maybe a career game for him? I'm going to have to look up his career highs.

Cavs seem to move the ball well against weaker teams
But when the defense pressure amps up we go back to Lebron ball

Nice block trailing the play by LBJ. Looking good this quarter.

Great block by Lebron

I think this game might have the first time I've seen LeBron denied on a fast break. And it was by Dunleavy.
Yeah, I'm not really likely the Wallace/Andy combo especially with Brown on the floor. It also doesn't help that Delonte isn't really looking to score. Just not enough people that can score on the floor.

Wow, it's kinda messed up that the announcers are beating up Dickens for not having gloves. Hey, he's a NBDL'er leave the kid alone.

Looked up AV's career highs. His best scoring game was 17 points in 2006 against the Hornets. His season high is 16 points against the Bobcats on Jan 11 2008. His career and season high in rebounds is 18.
First quarter today
AV- 10 pts, 6 reb
I don't think of AV as a scoring threat at all, but I thought he has had a 20 pt game before. I guess not though according to nba.com.

By the way, Wally hitting that 3 in Dunleavy's face was a good sign.

Cavs have looked good at home since the trade but our road play has fallen off
Hopefully there is enough time for them to gel and get their road play together before the playoffs

So far so good. Indy shooting like trash helps, too
Btw, I have to congratulate myself on 1000th post...lol.

Good to see AV close to being healthy again. Obviously him and Wallace arent the best combo, but today it worked. When Z comes back they will be better for having played together.

Anyone heard anything about Sasha? Do you think it's possible for him to be back in the next week? Same with Z?

Well of all the new guys, Joe Smith is by far the one playing the best for us. He fits this team very well.

That's because our defense has fallen way off
This is another instance of Brown leaving LeBron on the bench too long.
