Game 4 | Cavs at Clippers | Nov 5th 2012 | 10:30 PM ET

To tank or not to tank? That is the question.



I'm hoping to see another hard fought game that we come up short in.



A couple things to note:


- This is the 2nd game of a 6 game road trip.
- Kyrie and Andy have great chemistry on the floor.
- Waiters has been great. I am excited to watch him play.
- Please keep Walton and Miles on the bench. I am going to lose it if I see Luke playing the 4.
- Blake Griffin scares me with his athleticism.
- Clippers lost to the Warriors at home, so we might have a chance?
- Jamal Crawford is on their team. A known Cavs killer from The Queen Era. And to say that he is playing very well is just an understatement.

[IMHO]

I like seeing TT go against athletic guys like Griffin.

I'm in LA and heading to this game tonight. I'll probably be the only Cleveland fan within 150 miles of the Staple Center but looking forward to a great game

You are right Jamal Crawford is the X-Factor here and scary at that.

This is one of the toughest challenges for Kyrie going up against CP3 and Tristan facing Blake. Not expecting much but my presence will be known on the floor and hopefully I become Cleveland's X Factor tonight.

But in reality the Clippers have one of the best second units in the league so bottom line we are in trouble tonight.

Enjoy the game D-Lip!

Im getting too old for these West Coast games. Not only is it 3 hours difference, but they are starting the game at 10:30 instead of 10? What gives?

Now I know what TheOutlaw feels like being the old guy.

[LoveThemCavs]

Never good to see Jamal Crawford, especially on a hot streak. He'll go for 30+ tonight probably. Just always has his best games against the Cavaliers. Should be fun watching Kyrie and CP3 go at it. I am really looking forward to seeing more of Dion Waiters, hopefully he stays aggressive out there. Hope TT/AV don't end up on a Griffin poster tonight, but if Walton gets in the game --- Just Do It Blake. The Clippers aren't a very good rebounding team despite having Jordan/Griffin in the paint. So if the Cavs can make them take some tough shots, we might have a chance. I'm sure I'll change my mind once our craptastic bench gets on the floor.

Yeah its weird you guys have games at 10.30 pm. I guess its 7.30 on the west coast so its not too bad for them. I would have thought 6.30 would be a more reasonable time which would be 9.30 on the east and still give the people on the west plenty of time to get home from work.

Maybe its not on tv anywhere in the east besides cleveland though? I dunno. Games at 2.30pm for me. Day off work so its good

This is going to be a tough game for the Cavs tonight and a good test. I don't think they will win tonight but there playing against a really solid Clippers team

[Dupp]

Kyrie is nasty

[Roger Murdock]

Zeller, Andy, and Kyrie are playing excellent.

[Dupp]

Even the bench is doing alright

[LoveThemCavs]

Good first half by the Cavs. Kyrie with the hot hand from outside. Zeller playing his best game so far. Dion needs to keep aggressive, I like his game a lot. AV is amazing, how about that crossover layup to end the half? LOL. Oh and before I forget.. Samuels with a step back J from 18-20 feet? WTF.. Nice. The best part is.. NO WALTON. Clippers will play better this half for sure, but I like what I see from our guys tonight.

[Dupp]

No Walton = good day

[LoveThemCavs]

Dion Waiters coming out party tonight. Let the guy play Byron!

[TheOUTLAW]

I wish the Cavs were getting the same foul calls that the Clips are

[LoveThemCavs]

I'm not worried about the refs. Just keep playing the way they've played the other 3 quarters and this is a win. The Clips might pull this off yet, but they've been outplayed thus far. Need to get Dion back in there!

[TheOUTLAW]

Not only was he in the circle but he was still moving and another bad call against the Cavs taking away a basket.

[Rise Against]

Zeller should definitely had that 3 point play. But it's okay, we're still up. Definitely loving the play from Waiters and Irving. Crawford hasn't been as huge of a factor as I thought.

[Rise Against]

CJ Miles, WOW. I take back everything I said from the last game. WOW.

[TheOUTLAW]

Miles has been shooting from way too close.

[Dupp]

Lol miles! Hes having an ok game.

No Walton still
