Just about everyone sucked in the game against Boston, but at least Anderson was grabbing tough rebounds.

The Second game, I think that it undoubtedly goes to Daniel Gibson who put up 25 2 4 on 10/14 shooting.

Gotta give Boobie Gibson his props. Great game by him, gets my vote too.

Post #4 » by **Rise Against** » Fri Oct 31, 2008 7:09 am

It's Boobie easily for the game against the Bobcats.

Post #5 » by **TheOUTLAW** » Sun Nov 2, 2008 4:01 am

IMO the P.O.G. goes to Z for the NO debacle

Post #6 » by **Rise Against** » Tue Nov 4, 2008 4:17 am

Yeah, it was Big Z for the game with New Orleans.

For the game with Dallas, I think it has to be LeBron. He was 8-of-20, but scored 29 points and took over when we needed it. But others may say it could be Mo since the Cavs ended the third quarter ahead by six and he scored nine points during a 13-0 run at the start of the final period.. Which of course, led to a blowout.

I'm torn between Delonte and Z for the Dallas game. Sure LeBron put up the bigger numbers, but these guys were getting it done early and while the game was still in doubt. LeBron really put up alot of his numbers after we'd already taken a lead (although he did a great job of expanding that spread). Fact is the spread was created by the other guys.

LoveThemCavs · Post #8 » by **LoveThemCavs** » Tue Nov 4, 2008 4:43 am

I would have chosen Delonte, but he really faded out after that excellent first quarter. I'd have to give this one to Z again. He also got my vote for the NO game. The big man was draining that jumper and had some timely rebounds. Honorable Mention to Ben Wallace. He gave Dirk fits all night and had 8 offensive boards(even though he didn't score a point).

Post #9 » by **TheOUTLAW** » Tue Nov 4, 2008 5:03 am

Delonte was killing it from 3, but all of a sudden he was benched and sat for a long time. No idea what happened with that.

Post #10 » by **Rise Against** » Thu Nov 6, 2008 3:46 am

I think it is pretty transparent that LeBron is the player of the game for the game against Chicago.

Post #11 » by **TheOUTLAW** » Thu Nov 6, 2008 3:49 am

I can't think of anything more obvious than LeBron being the POG of this game. Great game by LeBron who was in the form that I like. I still think that the Cavs coasted and while the lead might have dwindled at times they just went on a run at will.

Roger Murdock · Post #12 » by **Roger Murdock** » Thu Nov 6, 2008 7:44 am

To be fair ben wallace played great tonight. If we limit his minutes to keep him conditioned i think we can get 25 min a game of terrific defense and rebounding.

rjgraca · Post #13 » by **rjgraca** » Sat Nov 8, 2008 3:46 am

Against the Pacers, it's got to be AV in my opinion. Nice and consistent all around game for AV and the CAVs needed it tonight against the Pacers.

Post #14 » by **TheOUTLAW** » Sat Nov 8, 2008 9:11 am

I thought it was Anderson as well. While LeBron and Williams both put up more points those turnovers hurt. Varejao was unexpected and efficient.

Post #15 » by **INKtastic** » Sat Nov 8, 2008 2:47 pm

I'd go with Andy last night too.

Roger Murdock · Post #16 » by **Roger Murdock** » Sun Nov 9, 2008 7:08 am

lebron wins

LoveThemCavs · Post #17 » by **LoveThemCavs** » Sun Nov 9, 2008 6:14 pm

AV for the Indiana game and LeBron for the Chicago games.

Post #18 » by **TheOUTLAW** » Sun Nov 9, 2008 6:59 pm

I'm pretty sure that nobody would say anyone other than LeBron for the Chicago game. Man, I wish we played them every game.

Post #19 » by **Rise Against** » Wed Nov 12, 2008 2:36 am

It's LeBron against Milwaukee for his 3rd 41 point game of the season.

Post #20 » by **TheOUTLAW** » Fri Nov 14, 2008 4:44 am

Now this Denver game is going to be an interesting debate. LeBron had a monster game with 22/11/8 but, I really think the player of this game was Mo. Mo was huge and had numbers of 24/6 with a steal and a block.
