It's been almost a month since the Cavaliers won two games in a row, and that's not good for a team with high expectations. However, the Cavs seemed to return to prior form as they beat the Heat (no pun intended)103-79 at the Q. Here are some of the things I noticed from the game:
1. LeBron finally looked normal, as did the rest of the Cavs. They attacked the rim more, drew more fouls, and pushed off of defensive stops. I have been yelling at the TV screen the last month telling the Cavs to do those things, and they finally did. When Daniel Gibson took on Shaq at the rim and scored, I went INSANO.
2. The ESPN broadcasters really hate the Cavs, especially the rest of the crew. While Jason Kapono of all people draws massive raves from the ESPN staff, players like Sasha Pavlovic and Anderson (I'm going Brazilian on his name) are said to be nobodies. Just watching the Heat's supporting staff makes me want to cringe, which is why I don't understand why everyone on their team other than Wade and Shaq are hyped. This is why nobody in the east scares me, the Pistons will tire out, the Heat are just flat out OLD, and Washington has no concious as Kobe would say.
3. During the game, it seemed like it turned into the Toronto Raptors show. Now everyone is on their bandwagon just like Washington one week ago. They are 3 games over .500 and Michael Wilbon is calling them the "3rd best team in the east." Once that team crosses the boarder with that pressure on them and stops beating up on the Celtics, expect them to melt like snow in Jamaica.
4. No Damon Jones last night until garbage time. Good call by Mike Brown, because he needed people with speed to stop Wade's penetration into the lane, and it sure did work. I don't think Jones cares too much, because he's got 450 SUITS TO DRY CLEAN. MAN. I'll give the man some props though, he's got a pretty good style went it comes to suits. Almost as good as your's truly.
