Game 58| Cavs @ Hawks | March 1st 2009 | 8:00pm EST

[Wine and Gold]

Im sorry people,i take it back...I just was REALLY FRUSTRATED with the way we(lebron specifically) game out and played in the 2nd half...We just lost energy but we came out with an ugly win....I'm looking back on what i said and i should have never made a comment like that but im just disappointed with the way lebron plays against teams that clog the whole(OLR,LAL,HOU)

I hope that makes yall happy,just dont think of me as a bad person b/c when i said that lebron was still a great player..With that said lebron is a great player,kobe is a great player,just leave it as that

We've all been there at points in time. If Mike Brown knew of some of the things I wrote about him in game threads he'd have me banned from the team. I have a long long history of just brutalizing him in game threads. Can't help it ...I'm just helpless if I'm watching a game and have a game thread up, and something happens where I lose it emotionally ...Mike Brown's going under the bus ...it's a given.

Really, Delonte played bad but he had a clutch shot within 2 minutes.

He had a stretch where he was very bad.. The last two games he has had bad turnovers. But hopefully its more so rust than anything. He is not being eased back into anything, he is being counted on heavily. He had some good moments in the game and some bad ones. He hit some shots and made some plays and had that very bad stretch where he turned it over 3 times in a 4 minute span. He was very aggressive defensively and it showed as he was a nuisance to Joe Johnson the whole he was on the floor. Even when he was beat he either bothered him from behind or had Z there to help. That is what you call slowing an all star down. It sucks though that when you look at the box score it looks like Joe Johnson had a good game. It doesn't show that he had done his damage when Delonte wasn't in the game for the most part.

Ultimately though this game came down to Mo hit his shots and Lebron got the calls eventhough he missed alot of free throws.

We would not have had a chance at this last year. Especially after they stormed back on that 30-10 blitz. Mo Williams with the biggest basket of the game. So glad to see him ice other teams the way he used to ice us.

reflecting back on this game, this is the type of game ELITE teams win.

i remember watching MJ's bulls, they would ALWAYS pull out the win when it was all said and done, even if they were down XX w/ 2 min left.

watching a game like this makes me feel better about our toughness come playoff time.
