^^ I agree, best game for the cavs this season, hell even lorenzo got some minutes. James came back strong in the 2nd half after having 5 turnovers. He began to read the defense. The Rockets played great defense on lebron in the 1st half, but he managed to hit a couple jumpshots 

u mad?

Love to see Leborn and Yao on the same team.
If they team up, I don't think there is anybody could stop them both.
They will destroy every teams.

Well T-Mac was supposed to destroy "midget" Delonte West (Rockets' fans words), yet he scored only 4 points. Delonte continues to put a defensive clinic on the leagues guards.

Did you watch the game? YEs Delonte defended well, but almost every time Tracy got the ball they would do a quick double on him. plus delonte hardly played he got injured and had to come out. (just saying(

It clearly was not the Cavs best played game, but it was their best win of the season. It's about time we actually played a game that went down to the end. We need to make sure that we can finish games like this since this is how playoff games are played.

Dude, give Delonte some credit. T-Mac had 4 points. Lebron was getting doubled teamed all game by Battier and Artest (DPOY caliber defenders) and he still had 27 points.

You tryna compare Tmac to Lebron? yes Delonte played good defense, but by what you just said its obvious you just looked at the boxscore

Delonte was good enough, I was suprised it took as long as it did for Brown to put Pavlovic in the game. LeBron started guarding McGrady and Pavlovic on Battier. LeBron was great as usual. The biggest plays down the stretch were by Boobie and Mo. While people are complaining on Yao sitting with fouls, Z fouled out with 3 minutes to go in the fourth. It went both ways.

By far, our best won of the season. It was not our best played game this year, but it was a hard fought game.

Why are you saying I looked at the box score. I watched the game on fox sports net and missed 5 minutes of the game in 3rd quarter when they had transmission difficulties, just like everyone else, you little snot.

It was a real quality win for us the Cavs tonight. I think if the Rockets can stay healthy they are the 2nd best team in the West and one of the top 4 in the league. They are pretty deep and have loads of talent.
On side a note, I hope Delonte is okay. I wonder if he'll sit out on Christmas to rest up. Shouldn't need him against the Wiz.

I don't think any Rockets fan said that.
Anyways it was 4 game in 5 nights for T-Mac nad he is still not ready for that , he had an open fast break dunk one time but instead he passed it back because he was too slow to get to the rim.
He had a hard time against the double teams because he was slow tonight so he couldn't force things , he did an ok job passing at least.
I really hope you guys kick Boston's ass and I think you will , good luck the rest of the way.

Re: Game 28: Rockets @ Cavs - Tue, Dec 23, 7pm
I'll admit I havent really thought too highly of Houston, but after watching last night's game I am left with completely different thoughts on them. I know they have talented players, but that's not what was impressive. What really impressed me was how they played as a team. Their defense is definately elite level, and their offense has a ton of weapons to choose from. Fortunately for us we forced some fouls on Yao, and played some great defense of our own. I could easily see those same Rockets (assuming they can somehow be healty) in the Finals. I think they are that good.
But I also think we are better. How stellar was Mo last night.... Oh and that block LeBron had on Yao... Good God
