Cleveland's Finest Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 We have to win this game. The Celtics are likely going to sweep the Heat or win in 5, so if we lose then we'll have much less time to recover. Also, to be tied 2-2 just won't be good for the team. We need to win road games now and play with awareness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check my Stats Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 Why are they using Shaq so much Jesus, they brought him in for Dwight Howard not Brad Miller... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should play Hickson, he can contribute more right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliCurbStomppa Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 Chicago are playing good so far. Im surprised this one is close but it only 2nd qt so far so. They need start letting Bron take over so they can take this series 3-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleveland's Finest Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 I think that was a make up for the one that didn't count during the regular season in LA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted April 25, 2010 Author Owner Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 The way to beat Cleveland is to stick one excellent defensive player on LeBron (let's just say Ron Artest), then lock off the perimeter. If LeBron scores 40, so be it...but if you cut off access to his shooters, it cuts Cleveland's offense in half. In fact, I guess it's similar fashion to what Orlando did last season.

But we have Jamison. You see the whole third quarter was almost exclusively pick and roll between LeBron and Antawn with Jamison getting a pass when he cut to the basket.

You see the whole third quarter was almost exclusively pick and roll between LeBron and Antawn with Jamison getting a pass when he cut to the basket.Yeah, Jamison is fantastic when Taj Gibson is defending him. Put length on him and he struggles. The Lakers won't beat Cleveland with an injured Kobe, so I'm not really even talking about the NBA Finals right now...but Jamison would have trouble doing things like that against Gasol and Odom. He would have to go back to his usual one-on-one play, which doesn't suit Cleveland well. Jamison isn't much of a concern for us. I'm glad it was him dealt to Cleveland. The more we force him to work on defense, the less offense he'll produce, also. I think you'll become a bit frustrated with Jamison when you guys play Boston, assuming Garnett starts playing like a man again. Orlando will give him trouble as well, and so would the Lakers...and I think the decrease in frontcourt defense (especially pick and roll defense with Shaq, and physical man defense with Jamson) will force LeBron into 40-point games every night, and while we all know it's not tough for him to drop 40, I think we also should be aware that doing it in 4-7 consecutive games is a hell of a task.

Cleveland's Finest Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 (edited) Well we destroyed your bigs with Z and Shaq, and Z didn't play today. Jamison could deal with Odom. When we play a team with bigs like Orlando, LA, we have the personnel that would move Jamison to the three.

Check my Stats Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 I have always believed Jamison is a 3 not a 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's all good...we'll find all of this out if the time comes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd be surprised at Jamison's improvement on the defensive end. When you are traded to a team that is all about defending as opposed to his former team in Washington, it's easy to develop good habits. Look at Mo. He had two blocks in a game this series I believe. He turned from a purely offensive guard to a halfway decent defender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
