This game is like rinse and repeat except Paolo is having a slow start.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.-John 3:16

Go Magic, Go Dwight, Go Vuc, Go Paolo, Go Keegan :)

Cole made like 3 or 4 bad plays in a row to give the Cavs the lead.

Cole absolutely doesn't take those last second heaves on purpose. He is the only one on the team that makes it seem like he is but takes it as soon as the buzzer goes off.

Then he shoots it after the buzzer not to hurt his average.

Why is Cole being blamed for Paolo being absolutely ass.. 2-10, no rebounding, staring at the ball, 3 turnovers. I mean Cole **** foul but..

I noticed that too. I can see the players frustration, especially when Anthony Black got hit and the refs decided it wasn't worth his time to call the foul.

Cole knows what he's doing with putting a shot up way after the clock expires.

Cole always fakes like he's trying to beat the buzzer. We know you protecting your stats.

Theyre running a 2-3 zone and immediately hittin Paolo with doubles or triples when he gets close to the paint

We need more movement off ball

Suggs, Houstan, Ingles, Paolo, Goga seems like the best lineup to go with

It'd really help if Franz's shot was falling, but it just isnt from 3

Well at least we're not down double digits in the 1st quarter to this team like our previous matchup, progress.

He had like 3-4 bad back to back to back plays mostly on defense and getting back after bad shots early in the clock.
