Jones isn't a good defender, but his ability to score can't be overlooked. .

Yea, that's why I said a couple of 3's.

His ability to not play defense can also not be overlooked. At this point in the series, I'm going to assume that Hamilton and Billups will start hitting their shots again, and I think Hughes defense and size will be much needed to help slow them down.

I'm not saying that Jones is not important. On the contrary, he's quite important tonight. About the only thing that will get that place louder than a Jones 3, is an appearance by Hughes (like you said)

Heard on the radio that Hughes is not going to start. Basically giving the fact he hasn't played in a week and his conditioning isn't there. No mention yet IF he will play or not. But after saying that Larry needs to play tonight, even if it is for 5-10 minutes. Just to get him involved and give him the reaction of a home crowd to welcome him back. It will be very emotional for him and rather have it done in game 6 than game 7 when we really need to win.

Too lazy to put a link or anything but on ESPN.com find the most recent Bill Simmons article. He is predicting a great game by LeBron tonight. Also saying he now wishes he didn't pick Kobe for MVP as it clearly is LeBron.

It is a game like tonight that really determines the greatness of a player. This is the type of game that Jordan would will his team to victory. Hopefully Lebron will seized this opportunity to write the next chapter of his legend.

There's an awful lot of gloom around here for the Cavs being up 3-2, playing at home, and with the best player in the NBA on the team.

Kenny Smith makes a good point about this series and LeBron. He hasn't yet exploded for a HUGE game like he's capable - one of those 45-50 point games where he just takes everything over. LeBron is one of the few players in the league who can win a game virtually by himself. He hasn't had to do that yet, it's reasonable to expect that a player like him is good for one of those per series, and if needed he can probably do it.

Well our offense is playing horrible so far.

They are doubling Lebron, so why are our teammates running into each other??? Spread the fucking floor so our shooters have some room. They are all over Lebron because our floor spacing is horrendous.
