1st Cav

LeBron James has a good week of rest, and he was ready to test his ankle and Andre Igoudala vs. Philadelphia last night. Leon Powe made his debut first as a rider to the absence of Antawn Jamison. The Cavs start programming has been fairly low. MB, AP, Bron, Powe and Hickson. Even if LeBron just finshed with 23 points, he added 10 assists and that was all the Cavs needed to win a close game that came down in the fourth quarter.


LeBron started with two passes, one to JJ Hickson a good rider and Mo Williams for a series 3 pointer. He then came to the court, was walking in a layup, then went into a three pointer. 2 minutes into the game, LeBron already had 4 points and 2 assists. JJ Hickson had a basic disk unreal dunk on Igoudala, and the Cavs were rolling. But Philadelphia held their own. They took advantage of the absence of Shaquille, and kept driving and scoring baskets in the paint. Initially, Dalembert, Brand, and received Igoudala baskets nearby. Meanwhile, LeBron has been put on a shooting clinic. Hit 3 of his 4 first, and kept the Cavs in the game

With just over a minute to go in the first quarter, LeBron got real nasty, real fast. base drive, he jumped about 17 feet in the air, and extended a hand pump jam. The crowd was buzzing and everyone knew in the arena; Nobody else in the world as LeBron dunks.

Philadelphia hit 5 / 7 Three's in the neighborhood, and Andre Igoudala had its own set of impressive dunks highs. The Cavs were 36-32 and that many have predicted, this game looks like a track meet. Both teams shot over 60%, and there was not much defense to speak of.

Cavs started the second quarter of the cold, the absence of their first four attempts. As usual, not LeBron almost no way offense. This team needs to LeBron as both a scorer and a distributor. Without him in the game, the offensive stagnation occurs.

And then there was a comment Delonte West. As Austin Carr said, "Delonte West has resulted in lower Euclid Avenue and throws the hammer down." Samuel Dalembert has tried to block the dunk, but halfway up he realized he was about to be on a poster. Delonte has been known to throw some serious dunk-sides from time to time. At the end of the semester, LeBron had 13 and eight assists.

Mo Williams started the second half with an aggressive mentality. The Cavs began to rage against the defensive, and LeBron drilled from March to September minutes up the lead to 11 at 68-57. Mo-Mo ended the quarter with 10 points, and the Cavs have been in a game very good. The Cavs production fell slightly, and the fourth quarter we ended up at 85-80. This team continues to come so. After a quick Jamario dunk, Mo Williams has spotted a 3, then hit a three right after Jamario. Problem solved, we are up 88-85. The 2 points were invaluable, as LeBron caught an alley-oop was thrown too high, passed two hands to one and finished with a flush .. Are you kidding me? And where does this wave of Jamario come?

Sometimes, the Cavs just play with teams like Philadelphia, then wait until the final minutes to seal the deal. With 4 minutes to play, Mo hits another 3. Do not forget LeBron sensational block on Elton Brand. This game actually did go down to the wire, as Jamario Moon missed 3-24 seconds from the end that we have created 6.

Instead, Philly grabbed the rebound and called a timeout. Down 95-98, they needed a 3. Instead, they turned the ball over the possession of a joke. Delonte down, some exercises of free throws, and you can put just about it in the book. Cleveland Philadelphia shows why they are not in contention for the playoffs. The first time the Cavs swept the 76ers in the regular season in 13 years. LeBron good looks, and so did the Cavaliers. We have fully kept.
