Merry Christmas to all posters here on the Cavs forum. Got some sweet Cavs gear today and ready to break them in with a win. Go Cavs.

[Rise Against]

Merry Christmas to you too and the rest of the Cavs fans who post here.

We should be able to take this game fairly easily, especially if Arenas is still out.

[prekazi]

Just go out and have some fun. Finish the game early!

I want to see a triple double from LeBron in 20 minutes. 12pts 11reb 12 ast would be cool.

Merry Christmas to you all!

[Manny Phresh]

Yay... I'm going to the game tonight. Hopefully it's gonna be a good game.

[prekazi]

Hmm we fans are acting too arrogant including me! Hope our players won't treat this game like we do!

[FreeBalling]

The Cavs are going to kill the Wizards tonight. Enjoy.

OutLaw I got you something for Christmas.

[LoveThemCavs]

Wizards came ready to play tonight, they were on fire to start this one. Good thing Delonte had a good start and made some huge threes. Only down 3 after one quarter.

[CHIMOCHI]

i love MO

[LoveThemCavs]

Delonte and Mo are really carrying the Cavs tonight. LeBron sits and the team pushes a tie game to an 8 point lead. Wally played like crap when he was in there, forcing three's. Hadn't seen much of that before tonight with him.

Having been waiting 5 years for that. Cavs can go on runs with LBJ on the bench. 15-4 run I think. They were def taking them too lightly right from the opening tip. Glad to see they are playing better now.

[prekazi]

Somebody remind LeBron that this is a regular season game. Of course first someone should wake him up!

[LoveThemCavs]

Yea it's a good feeling isn't it? Knowing the team isn't going to just fall apart when LeBron sits for four minute stretch. That's the major difference between this team and years past. With that being said, we're only up by 2 halftime here. Rotations seem a little late on defense thus far. LeBron has only took 4 shots so I imagine he'll bring alot more this second half. Good game so far, will give Washington some credit for it.

[witnessmoboobie]

Ya I have to say that the Wiz are hanging tough, but I hope that the guys come out strong in the 3rd and put this one away early. Lebron with only 5 in the first. Only 8 in the first last game. Lebron needs to get going.

[witnessmoboobie]

Not a good start. (as I type, Mo hits the trey)

[Rise Against]

Huge block by West.

And great and 1 by LeBron. Too bad he missed the free throw though.

[CHIMOCHI]

Huge block by West.

And great and 1 by LeBron. Too bad he missed the free throw though.

16-24 in ft throws last 5 games

[Rise Against]

Wally is pretty awful today...

[prekazi]

At least he's awful. LeBron is non-existant.

[witnessmoboobie]

This is disgusting. Its one thing for the ball not to fall your way, but they are making mistake after mistake today.

[witnessmoboobie]

Please knock down this FT Lebron
