Fun Clippers game back on Tuesday.
Cavs down 7 after 1, 14 after 2 , 17 after 3, but keep clawing and manage to win by 4. Mo and Boobie’s clutch treys in the fourth helped seal the win in a game where Lebron clearly was Atlas.
Also…
According to the AP, after hitting a 90-footer in a game! and an 80-footer in practice, Dayton Christian High School basketball player, Casey Weber, wants to challenge LBJ in a shooting contest.
“Hey, LeBron, anytime, anyplace!” said the whole team apparently in unison in front of some cameras. The supposed bet would be if Weber scores the first full-court shot, James would have to buy the team a burrito restaurant.
Really?! Like a Chipotle? Would Lebron get a financial stake in this venture? I think this would make for a very exciting contest.
And…
Great, great, GREAT NBA spot (2 and a half steps, son):
Also, I was saving this vid for a future potential playoff match up, but what the hell:
And now on to the game…
US Airways Center was the only building in which Lebron hadn’t won in until tonight.
James gets his third consecutive triple dub in the waning seconds of the fourth after brushing off Varejao for the final board. Please don’t take it away.
Ok, how about this stat: Lebron James had a GAME-high in points (34), assists (13), boards (10), steals (3), and blocks (3)! Yes he is a beast, I swear he needs to be tranquilized.
Mo didn’t let a bad shooting night carry over, as he added 30. Pavlovic was quality tonight, reminiscent of his minutes as a starter in December. 6 for 9 shooting for 16 pts.
Recently, Delonte hasn’t been playing with any offensive consistency. His drive attempts are poor and yesterday he turned the ball over 7 times in 22 minutes before heading to the lockroom with a sore lower back. He is questionable for tonight’s game, but I think he’ll play. If it’s a gametime decision, Brown should replace West with Sasha in the starting line-up and see what he can do. ‘Cause it’s only Sacramento.
Lastly, yesterday night had to be a record for the most Sideshow Bob imitators on the floor at the same time: Varejao, Lopez, and now West.
Final: 119-111, Cavs tie a season-high in scoring
Final Thought: 6 road games remaining. Detroit down 18.5 with 19 games to go. Here’s hoping nothing drastic happens.
