Game 3: Cavs @ Hornets - Sat, Nov 1, 8pm [FSN-OH]

Game Date: Saturday, November 1st, 2008
Game Time: 8:00 P.M. ET
Location: New Orleans Arena
TV: FOX Sports Ohio HD
Radio: WTAM 1100


Probable Lineups
Cleveland
PG- Mo Williams
SG- Delonte West
SF- LeBron James
PF- Ben Wallace
C- Zydrunas Ilgauskas

New Orleans
PG- Chris Paul
SG- Morris Peterson
SF- Peja Stojakovic
PF- David West
C- Tyson Chandler

The Hornets are a banged up, not sure on the status of Peja and Chandler for tonight. All reports are day to day, so I just assumed they'll play tonight. Tough couple games on the road(at Dallas on Monday), against a pair of teams that had the Cavs number last season. I'd be content with a split here. It should be an exciting game, Go Cavs!

Good job with the game threads LTC.

Looking forward to this game. I could see Chris Paul eating us alive, but if Chandler/Peja are out we should have a good chance to win this one

thanks for the game thread!

We're always having difficulties against the Hornets and considering LBJ's form I don't expect a win. Still, all I know is we need him in the court more than 40 min. tonight.

Let's hope David West doesn't hit a game winner on us again.

Dang that took a while to find a link to watch online. Damn Blue Jackets on tv here. I like what I have seen so far atleast. Attacking Armstrong trying to guard Z with Chandler out. Mo with two fouls already though. Outlaw, I don't know if I'm allowed to post this or not. If it's not allowed please delete this.

Wow what a sick pass by LeBron. Varejao with the and1. Looking good up by 8 after the first quarter. LeBron with 6-5-5 after one, it might be one of those nights. Defense looking solid too.

How do they not call that on David West? He tripped Mo up at midcourt, would have been his third foul. A little home cookin in Nawlins. This second quarter turned out to be like our normal third quarters. 21-9 Hornets this quarter. Most of which LeBron was on the bench, though he played the entire first quarter.

Interesting Sasha starting at the 2 guard after halftime. Did they say Delonte was hurt or something?

I usually use channelsurfing.net, but all they had was audio of this game. LeBron got T'd up for argueing a non-call. He got his defender off his feet and then jumped into him. No call. Interesting LeBron has no FT attempts this game.

LeBron really hasn't been getting many foul calls this year at all.

Well AC seems pretty upset they didn't T up David West on that one. I didn't see the LeBron T, but AC said he did alot less than that. I'm not going to say we're losing cause of the refs, cause we're not the Hornets are starting to get on the break. These refs haven't been able to handle this game all night.

We are losing this game because of missed free throws. The Cavs are shooting 50%, they should not be losing.

WTF, the Cavs are just falling apart. First a steal and then traveling? What the heck is going on?

Completely falling apart here at the end of this game. Disappointing to say the least.

LeBron James is the worst 4th quarter player in the NBA right now.

The Cavs went from up 3 to down 8 in just about a minute. Where are those that have been arguing that LeBron is playing well. Sure, Mo has had some critical turnovers as well but the back to back steal/travel was just a back breaker.

In addition, LeBrons 11 pts is flat out not acceptable. Oh Cavs down 10 now.

Oops, Cavs down 11 now with 2 minutes to go.
