Cleveland's Finest

This sucks with no Mo....but at least now we'll have our backs up against the wall sorta and have more motivation. No Moon tonight either, and he was big against LA last time. GO CAVS!

Artest wasn't that good defending LeBron Christmas Day, so I don't know why he's out promoting himself.

- Dwayne Wade and LeBron James will be on the same team. - The Heat have a master plan to keep D Wade.

At the same time, the Raptors represent their whole country as its only NBA team, so it's a bigger deal for the fans.

YES 7-0 run. Started out rusty but finally we are back on track. Many lead changes this game but the Cavs have held out down the stretch and know when to start playing solid defense.

It's so weird seeing Brown emerge like this. In Cleveland whenever he played all he did was the occasional dunk. Nowhere did I see him make this type of impact.

Seriously, this is the same Boozer who promised to resign with the Cavs before screwing them over for a rebuilding Jazz team at the time.

In the early part of the decade, the Cavs were terrible, so it's expected that no one would care because quite frankly, it doesn't seem like management cared either.

We aren't that good at home anymore. Losing to Chicago and Charlotte, not the same home team as last year. And Hedo = the Cavs worst nightmare. Honestly, I'm thinking we have a better chance at losing than winning lol.

I went to the LAL/Clev game last year and it was a heart breaker, I'm so excited to go to this one and see revenge. Biggest game of the season! Go Cavs.

I'm nervous about this. We lost to Charlotte at home after a back to back and now after a long road trip we'll be a little rusty playing tonight. Hopefully LeBron can get the boys ready and rolling heading into the big game Thursday.

- Verajao was a flopper, but no longer. He is the hardest working player on the floor every game - James has developed a great mid-range game and his three point shooting is better than most

This is a repeat of last year. Celtics start out amazing and then bamn KG injured and everything falls apart. You honestly think Sheed, Allen, Pierce, and KG will all be in full health by playoffs?

Go Lakers. Celtics and Magic lose tonight and then the Cavs climb to the top after beating the Lakers Thursday are the direct plans.

I don't want to sound confident, but look at the East right now. Garnett is in the same situation as last year, the amount of time out is being extended constantly. And look at the Magic recently. I feel better and better about our chances at winning the East.

Well it's better than just sitting back and just hoping he'll come back like the Heat are doing.

LA has lost to some good teams at home, but corrected their mistakes by beating the Rockets and Mavs at home for revenge, and they've been playing well so hopefully they win. This should help the Hawks on getting that three seed as well.

This episode was good. I'm happy that Chloe is still involved, in a big way in fact.

Denver has over 40 free throws attempts haha.

People better not underestimate the Jets again. I still won't compare Rivers to Brady or Manning because out of all the regular season success he's had, it seems like every year they are the hot team but end up laying an egg in the playoffs It's starting to get repetitive especially now.

Well, Cavs management must be crazy then, because what is doing starting on the best team in the NBA.

LMAO, Z isn't that big of a factor on our teams success if you haven't been watching the past two years, and Z is much older than Yao, so stop wasting your time comparing Z to the best centers when you know he no longer is in his prime. Why does keeping Z or LeBron matter? Don't you see we are 31-11, and have 24 of 40 games left at home, so we will finish with with around 60 or more wins again. We'll be contenders and if you think a backup Center who doesn't really play clutch moments in the 4th a lot (Andy does) is going to be the deciding factor on if we win a title or not than whatever. Maybe 5 years ago when he was up to the standard you expect of him now for some reason, but not now when he's much older and we have plenty of other bigs such as Powe, Shaq, and Andy in the front court also. And seriously, Mo's been with this team one year, and it's kinda been going well so far when you look at how bad everything could've been. Ever think of not giving up on him after a 6 game series?

There are always gonna be rumors, but this is the last player I expect to wind up with the Cavs. Unless we get Troy Murphy, I consider any other deal a surprise at this point. We are 31-11, at some point you need to be content with the roster.

Again, you are bashing Z right now like he was never good. You obviously have never seen him play. He is much older now and it's very hard to run that quick at that age at that height, so you're comparison of the supposedly best center in DH12 who is more than 10 years younger than him and more athletic is barely of any value. What do you want Mo to do when he's asked about his thoughts on a game? Of course you'll guarantee it, but it seems to me that besides the 6 game series against the Magic, you have little to say about Mo. Remember when Jameer guaranteed a Magic win against the Pistons a few years back? Do you hate Jameer too? I'm not wasting my time talking about Z anymore. He's done so much for this franchise and when you downplay it, it's just absurd. He's played the most games in franchise history, and did you know, he missed two full seasons and almost another full one, only a little after he was drafted? Yet he went through all the recovery and kept his love for the game, and came back to become one of the greatest players in Cleveland sports history who is beloved by the fans because he went through the hard years when we were terrible, and he came full circle all the way to the LeBron era and still remained relevant, averaging 14 ppg last year. If it wasn't for Shaq, Z would be averaging 13 and 7, obviously because of the years he's been playing, you'd expect something lower, look at Shaq's stats now for example.

Wow, that's actually really cool. There's a lot to look at. Shannon Brown's appearance was random.
