Round 2, Game 3 | Cavaliers @ Hawks | May 9, 2009 - ABC 8:00 PM

Windhorst on his Twitter just mentioned that Joe Johnson and Horford art starting and Marvin Williams will come off the bench. https://twitter.com/PDcavsinsider
Now whether they can be effective is the question...Johnson will probably end up the least effective if he's just relegated to shooting jumpers all night.

the hawks are in a must win they will put out everything to win tonight. If the cavs can hold ground and win tonight the series is over and the hawks know it. I could see this game becoming really chippy. the key will be first quarter jump on them (like in game 2). If the cavs do that i dont see the hawks having enough fight left to make a come back.

oh yeah beer 1 finished

No breaks for the Cavs tonight. Atlanta's players are playing, we will have to execute on both ends to win it.

lol what a terrible decision. He's going to be completely ineffective on a bum ankle. Their best shot is with healthy bodies. Oh well.

This is a Cavs game, not a Pistons game.

LOL @ LeBron. That underhanded halfcourt shot is insane.

 

[Mr. Glass]

If the Cavs win this one, I have no doubt that the Hawks just roll over and let the Cavs put 'em out of their misery in Game four. Let's do this shit.

Excellent, Mavericks just choked, so the Nuggets are up 3-0 in that one, and will probably sweet that and should have PLENTY of rest for the Lakers or Rockets. We need to take care of business too so we can be ready against ORL/Smelltics

Did the "Is this Lebron's year" intro remind anyone of anything:

Yeah the Mavs choked big time. If you're going to foul, foul him hard.

 

[Chardon]

If we win tonight, someone put ATL on suicide watch. And will someone tell that ZAZA guy to not hurt any of our ****ing players.

 

[breanna]

It sounds like Joe Johnson isn't hurt very badly anymore.

 

[Benedict_Boozer]

GOod to see Z hit his first shot

 

[Sock]

Damn thats sweet

 

[cavsgirl26]

I don't buy their three starters are magically healthy. They won't be as effective and will be playing off the homecrowd. Hopefully we can keep the gas pedal on to keep em out of it.
