LeBron is killing it from outside tonight. I do wish he'd start going inside more tonight.

That was a cheap foul call on Varejao.

Rip just can't miss so far.

Terrible turnovers by Devin. Why the heck are Devin and Damon in the game at this time anyway?

Damon limping off into the locker room. Cavs need to put some more pressure on their guards.

Lebron kills me when he just stands in the corner.

Just because he doesn't have the ball doesn't mean he can't make himself a threat on the floor. That part of his game should have been corrected by our coaching staff years ago..

Yea you got that right man, Rip was on fire that first quarter. It was a pretty even quarter though. Not many fouls called either way.

No matter how you might dislike the Cavs offense and LeBrons lack of movement on offense. Man is the offense terrible when LeBrons sitting.

Whats up with AV? He's throwing all kinds of sloppy shots up lately. It's like he put on a retro number 90 jersey.

Varejao pisses me off more than Gooden ever did

Ay there we go. Ben with the good D on Rasheed then Delonte with the big three ball. Cavs up 5 with a minute til halftime. Delonte seems much more comfortable with shooting tonight.

He'd made some really tough shots but that airball proved he was human.

Great minutes from the Ben Wallace/Z frontcourt again

Those 2 look good when they get rest. Won't work in back to backs but in the playoffs we should be solid.

This has always been my thinking. Sure they aren't good in back to backs but this team should be better in the playoffs. These guys really still need to get used to each other.

Wow, Toronto is beating Miami by 42 pts
