It seems every night they're doing something different to win.
Lately it has been rebounding and second chance points.

Tonight it was free throws, turnovers and steals. They had twice the ft's the Celts did(34-17), only 9 to's compared to 20 for Boston and 10 steals (Hughes with 4) to Boston's 4.

Great job.

This team is beginning to play scary good together. LeBron and Hughes are really looking good. The real test will be when they drop a couple in a row, and how they bounce back. It's early, but not unthinkable that they could make some serious noise in the East this season.

Guys Boston is a playoff team they will compete with Philly for that top of that division. We put a beatdown on them for about 45 minutes of the game. They made that little run about halfway through the 3rd quarter to bring the game to within 2.

Then LBJ showed why he is the most dominant player to east of San Antonio. He scored 9 straight points, hitting a jumper then taking his man to the hole twice and then capping it off with a huge 3 at the buzzer to end the 3rd. Then after that in the fourth he made 4 more straight shots and was off the floor with 4 minutes to go b/c they had the game in hand.

This team is so much better than last year. Lets just hope we can stay healthy, hopefully Damon is ok, b/c we are going to need him. Tho Wilks played a nice game tonite.

The bad thing about the East is that, if Detroit wins the division, the best the Cavs can finish is #4 regardless of their record. If Indiana finishes ahead of them, then we're looking at a #5 seed .

It's a shame that regardless of record, if the Cavs don't win the division, then they're automatically seeded behind the other 2 division winners, regardless of season record.

Any word on Jones?

Jones is day to day. I doubt he will be able to play tomorrow, just from my own ankle experiences. Usually the quick guys have a harder time coming back because they use their ankles a lot more. Depending how bad it is he could be out a week or so. Brown will just need to use Hughes and Lebron at the Point a little more. I like Wilks, so hopefully everyone else can step up to fill in for Jones. The Indy game is going to be a fight for 48 minutes. If the Cavs hit a dry spell like they did in the middle of the game last night the Pacers will jump on them and not let them up like the Sixers did.

Looking at the schedule this is an important time for the Cavs to play well.

Hopefully they can show that the Clippers have just played well because they haven't played anyone yet.

This Pacers game is painful to watch. Can't knock down a shot in the first half, and I hate being forced to listen to Reggie Miller announce this game. Not to knock Reggie, but TNT should know better than to think he could be unbiased in this game. It's ridiculous.

Not ready yet....

This team needs to keep grinding it out. Win the games they are supposed to win and continue to gel as a team. Maybe by the end of the year, they'll be able to compete in these games. But, they're not ready yet.

Reggie sucks as an announcer... His sister is better...

If you're going to announce... you need to leave that bias shit at home... Cavs could have won by 20 and Reggie would have been the second coming of Lllloyd Carr.. whining and making excuses...

A big part of tonight was still the fact that the game was on the road. I think if the Cavs could of played this game and the Spurs game at home they would of been totally different games.

They did have the big road win against Philly and also against Orlando in OT.

They all struggled tonite for some reason or other, I know Indiana is a good team, but they need to compete against them if they want to make a run.

These are the games that LBJ needs to step up and say guys get on my back and lets go.
