Go Cavs!

I honestly don't see how Mo and Sasha match up with Stuckey and AI. The game will be won or lost right there.

I think this is a statement game for the Cavs. They want to show the Pistons that they are now the top of the East and I think they win a tough game tomorrow. Call me Un-American, but I am way more excited for this than the Superbowl.

[Rise Against]

Good game to watch before the Superbowl.

[InBoobieWeTrust]

As long as Detroit doesn't go bonkers and shoot 12-14 in the fourth quarter with Rasheed hitting like 4 threes, we should beat them.

[LoveThemCavs]

It's a little wierd that we're past the halfway point of the season and the Pistons are a distant memory in the division race. They still have alot of good players and Stuckey is going to be something else. They don't play too well as a team though and it's shown how valuable Billups really was to them. Actually it's possible that we could get stuck with them in the first round if they don't get out of their funk. I don't fear the Pistons, but that's a tough first round matchup for anyone. I hope they keep a 4 or 5 seed.

Thank god that Big Z is back. Going to need his midrange jumper to spread their bigs out some, show LeBron some lanes to create near the rim. Sasha will need to bring it since he'll be chasing Hamilton and Iverson around most of the day. .Should be a good game.

[prekazi]

Another bad game from LeBron and we'll lose again. We have to face the fact that LeBron is struggling against good teams in away games. This is really uncharacteristic for him and it's unacceptable. This might be the single negative thing for him so far. He has to show up, this is a statement game. We can't lose every important away game and keep asking for respect. Tonight is up to LeBron! Don't run LeIso's, don't be a ballhog, take care of the basketball, attack, attack, attack! I'll be really disappointed if we lose this one.

LeBron James in losses: %41 FG, %20 3pt, %70 FT, 26.3 pts 7.2 reb 7.8 ast 4.4 TO!

[TheOUTLAW]

Cavs are shooting like crap so far.

[witnessmoboobie]

Lebron with a couple of good finishes. I love that stop and go move.

[TheOUTLAW]

LeBron has missed the 2nd free throw 3 times in a row so far.

[TheOUTLAW]

What the heck was that? LeBron just tossed the ball to Iverson. Another bad game by LeBron so far.

[witnessmoboobie]

Ya it's freaking unbelievable.

[LoveThemCavs]

Terrible first quarter. Missing FT's, jumpshots instead of driving or attacking the rim and turning the ball over like crazy.

[witnessmoboobie]

I really want to trade Gibson, but I don't think we could get anything worthwhile for him.

[TheOUTLAW]

Gibson has become this years Sasha . He's made more idiotic plays than anyone on the team so far.

[witnessmoboobie]

Andy with a broken nose probably? He should look good with a mask.

[TheOUTLAW]

Hickson defense needs some work. Detroit is going at him over and over again.

[witnessmoboobie]

Great move by Mo

[LoveThemCavs]

Well its not a broken nose, but stitches to the lip and inside of his mouth.

[witnessmoboobie]

Ya good news, but still pretty uncomfortable to play with.
