He just doesn't look like he's improved on much offensively during the last 3 years but this is a nice surprise.

Playoff career high in points. The 22 year old playing a complete game thus far.

I hope the Cavs rip off the bandaid, take off the training wheels, remove the safety net. It is time to move Mobley to the 5 fulltime next season, just see what they have.

Damn that 9 point lead for Cavs looks interesting. I'll have to turn the TV on soon.

Now because of the terrible call on the first one, Mobley has 4 fouls.

So BFE is Bum **** Egypt. Damn that might be offensive today I should drop it.

Tristan is on the Cavs? :lol:

This is essentially just like the first round for the celtics. Blazing hot from 3 blow out cavs game 1. Cavs starting to get it going from 3 in game 2 and will most likely take this one. Now the question is can the cavs protect home or do they let Boston come in in and control the games.

No Killer Instinct Boston appears every once in a while (this is the Miami Game 2 loss) before they decide to play like title contenders i guess. Too bad i trusted them again with another sweep when the plan all along isjust to give a game. LOL
If there is no basketball in heaven, i am not going.

Jarret Allen isn’t winning you anything. Garland won’t show up in the playoffs. Mobley is a glorified dunk man. Mitchell has some experience but is a liability on defense. To me, the Cavs are a treadmill team.

Game 2 vs HEAT = Celtics Lost.
Game 2 vs Cavs = looking a Celtics lost.
