Game 58 Cleveland at Detroit

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
This was a great win because DET came out like it was an elimination playoff game and smacked us in the mouth. There was a moment there we could have folded, but the guys locked it down on DEFENSE and played together which was great to see.
 
Love seeing Love being the leading scorer out there! Joking, but I just dig his aggressiveness throughout the entire game. If he can bottle that up, this team is bound for glory.

Seriously, though earlier in the season this would have been a loss. Cleveland would have put their heads down and given in, this squad has that fight and determination to win and I love seeing it. The mentality of this squad is so much more positive and strong, I cannot wait to see what they can accomplish. It might sound all corny and cliche, but its just a game. If you play the right way, you are generally rewarded (wins).

I cannot wait for the Golden State game, I want to see these teams play fast and the last time Cleveland got close despite no James, James is back. Let's do this.





On a side note, can anyone with this game on the dvr humor me? It seems the Fox Sports Ohio feed on League Pass TV for both HD and SD had some video issues in the first half. It was streaks of pixelation mostly. Can anyone check to see if that was the case for them as well? I want to find out if its an issue on my end I have to worry about. I looked at broadband league pass and it had all the same issues so I am thinking it's the source feed (FSO). If you can, check the 2.44 mark of the first, not game time but going to commercial, watch when the Cavs are walking to the bench, do you see it? Thanks in advance, or thanks for just reading this and feeding my OCD lol.
 
Our winning percentage in games that LeBron has played in is now .708(34-14). 4th best in the league

In games he's played since our 5-7 start, it's not .805(29-7). 2nd best in the league. 3rd best in the league since game 13 on(just slightly behind GS .809 for second place since that time).

For a team that started the season with so many players new to each other, with a brand new coaching staff that had never worked together, and a new infusion of talent to work in mid season, that is pretty special.

Teams like Atlanta, Memphis, and GS have a majority of their rosters built around guys who have been playing together for 2-4 years.
 
Well, just for comparison, the first season Dwight started all 82 games his Ortg/Drtg was 111/104. The first season Andre started all 82 games his Ortg/Drtg was 121/104.

Not going to touch Drummond's FT%. Not even Dwight was that bad. Ever.
Deandre Jordan thinks Drummond is a bad FT shooter.
 
Yea Jordan IMO is definitely the better of the 2... what a interesting game thread...never give up on this team...Cavs baby!
