I love to see us beat a top Western team on a night when we are playing like crap, are missing two of our top players, and LeBron gets a couple injuries.



Not that the Blazers aren't good but they're out of of playoffs in the West after this loss, that's crazy, you can say like about 10 teams in the West are "top".

B Mac's game threads are on a pace that rivals only the current Patriots, the 1998 Yankees, and the 95-96 Bulls.

Are LeBrons eyes closed on that game winning drive and basket?

I was watching the last 10 or so minutes in a bar in Grand Rapids and I was sporting my Cavs hat. I took so much BS from all the Pistons fanatics while the Cavs were playing some pretty terrible offense. then Lebron just freaking dominates, the defense picks up the intensity a little higher, and King James leads us to victory. All the Pistons fans were like, "Uh, wow. That's going to be a problem for us."

I have always pulled for the Blazers in the West, ever since my first NBA game was Cavs-Blazers in 1977. I've fallen away from them the past few seasons with all the headaches and criminals, but once again they are a fun and exciting team to watch. And they're so young. Great job by Nate McMillan getting those kids to play together and mature together. Now if he'd get his young Fs to block out...

Oops. Right on.

Great pics Gordon.

CZ - You're right. I hadnt realized that Portland had dropped so far down. Well anyway they still have a better record than us, at least.

It's funny how much crap Cavs fans were taking a bit earlier because of the terrible preseason and uninspired early season. Then of course was the LeBron injury. However, this team while flawed is going to be a handful for just about any team they play if they are at full strength.
