Cleveland Cavaliers vs.Golden State Warriors Game Thread

The Cavs really struggle when they're matched up against quick guards ...

[RedBlackAttack]

Pretty good game so far. The Cavs moving the ball very well. Cavs up 47-41 with 5 minutes to play in the half. If the Cavs could only make their free throws, they would be way ahead.

[Mikaiel]

Yeah it's pretty surprinsing to see the Cavs move the ball so well against the zone. They had problems in the past against zones.

[RedBlackAttack]

Lots of ticky-tack fouls being called. I'm not complaining, because they are being consistent, but they aren't allowing much contact out there. GS on a run. They are up 2 with 40 seconds to play in the half.

[RedBlackAttack]

Very entertaining first half (how often do we get to say that as Cavs fans). 54-54 at halftime.

[Mikaiel]

Nice half by the Cavs. Except Damon Jones lauching quick shots. The last thing you wanna do is run with them and let the crowd get into the game.

The scoring by the starting 5 is spread out very well.

Gibson has 12.
LeBron has 11.
Ilgauskas has 9.
Gooden has 9.
Sasha has 6.

Is there any doubt that this team is better when LH doesn't play? It is a good thing that he is injured so often. Otherwise, we would be in real trouble.

Great Game so far for the Cleveland Cavaliers i am hoping that we can start hot in the 3rd quarter because we really need to limit the Warriors from scoring. This must be an easy win for the Cavaliers as we will be facing superior team in a couple of days, and every win counts when the Cavs are having their West Coast Trip this week.

: Well it's just one game. Remember we won against GS last year without LeBron.

But you're right, there's not one aspect of the game we would be better at if Larry was there.

[Lebron23]

I am starting to think that we need a little more of Boobie Gibson in the 2nd half , and it looks like Lebron James would be having his 1st triple double of the Season in this game.

GO GO Cavs, Fight Fight Fight

Gibson's shot is just automatic, and he's stepped in a few times tonight for mid-range shots.

[RedBlackAttack]

Boobie is quickly becoming one of the best 3-point shooters in the L. He is 4-5 tonight and has 19 points. It has gotten to the point that every time he puts it up, I expect nothing but net. His stroke looks beautiful.

LeBron just got posterized by Harrington. Cavs still up by 2.

[Mikaiel]

Wow, great pass by Baron

[StroShow4]

al harrington puts lebron on the poster

[RedBlackAttack]

LeBron brutally brutalized someone on a break. I didn't catch who it was, but that was a lethal swat.
