time to break the 12th in a row curse

Hopefully win #12 in a row. Cavs should start pretty strong as the Mavs hang around and hang around till the end again. Cavs win by 7 but fail to cover the (-9) point spread, hope I'm wrong on the cover.

Welcome pogo, always good to hear from another Cavs fan. Dirk always gives us trouble, unless his shot is off. And this Dallas team is missing Kidd so It should be #12. BTW how does the Harris for Kidd trade look for them now? cuban was trying to justify that trade a week or so ago, I didnt like it last year, and it looks even worse now.

The Cav are missing lots of easy shots so far. And they aren't rotating well on defense. That being said, Dallas is moving the ball well.

Wow, the Mavs are running moving screens all over

Wow the Cavs came out flat and couldn't make anything in that first quarter. It could have been alot worse than a 10 point deficit. Hopefully get this game back close to even by halftime. Mo and LeBron both haven't hit a FG yet, so we know that's going to change.

Loss.

Boy do the Cavs look terrible

The Cavs are still shooting poorly eventhough they really are getting pretty easy shots. But its the fact that they aren't rebounding well and are playing bad defense that is causing the deficit.

LeBron can't buy a foul here

Cavs only down 2 eventhough they still aren't really shooting at the normal clip. Lots of physical play

I'll take it. For the most part the Cavs played badly. The defense was much improved most of the second quarter and Joe Smith was huge sparking the comeback. Really only AV and Joe played well. It's managable. Regroup at half and earn another win.

I can't believe it's only a 2pt game. LeBron should stop posting up, he's really inefficient.

Ya I never liked the Harris and Kidd trade either.

Welp we slept through the 1st quarter, weren't ready to play defensively but had a strong all around effort in the 2nd to only be down 2. Let's hope we dont come out flat in the 3rd to force us to dig out of an 8 point hole in the 4th.

Andy playing very good defense on Dirk in that 2nd.

Highlights thus far: Bron almost hurting himself off a dunk and Andy getting dunked on and rode like a bull

The Mavs are collapsing on LeBron so there really should be some open players, it doesn't help that nobody is making shots however.

Cavs take the lead

Terrible call on Varejao. Nice shot by Dirk but that was a completely crap foul call.

Uh oh, LeBron is down. Of course the typical idiots on the general board will claim he's faking to get a foul (eventhough the collision was with a ref)

It is kinda funny that the Mavs had a 5 on 4 and didn't get any points out of it.

That's what we like to see, a dominant 30-11 third quarter. Go from 2 down to up 17 going into the final quarter. This team is unreal, I love it.
