Seems like the defense is lacking a bit but at least they're getting buckets, son.

We're not on the boards and Haywood's ineffective today. Good timeout for EJ.

Nobody is in the paint for the rebound. All I see are 3 or 4 blue jerseys and 1 white.

First time I've uttered this this season, but Brendan needs to sit.

Pecherov and Blatche after the break would at least upset the rythym Cleveland's in. Maybe sit AD or DS and put Caron at SG since Cleveland's so big right now.

EJ is employing the old rope a dope; great strategery. Eventually, Cleveland will get tired of making baskets. :nod:

Z has a beautiful stroke when he gets it going.

Same lineup after the timeout.

EDIT: nevermind, Blatche is in.

EJ got outcoached on the timeout in that Cleveland came back BIGGER with Varajeo and Z and Lebron when EJ effectively got smaller just bringing in Blatche for Haywood.

Blatche got posted up by Z.

Wizards need more size out there.

I like the Cavs homer announcer with "that's why your head is hard so you can take a few hits"

Why do we always settle for a 3 at the end of quarters. I'd like to see them try driving for a layup just once to see how that goes.

Wizards' defense was atrocious in the first. They shot 74%.

But honestly, to JUST be down 8 isn't so bad.

That's one thing that I've noticed, EJ always gets out-coached by Brown.

BTH was getting abused by Z, glad to see him on the bench now.

The Wizards are very fortunate to only be down 8, and with Mason in I feel a run coming.

Young threw it down in Lebron's face.

N1 laughs in the face of 1-on-2 fast breaks.
