Cavaliers @ Heat

Z goes down, and the team follows!

Unfortunently, it shows just how important Z is to this team.

Lebron cant carry this team by himself, he needs Z very badly.

I ranted in the main forum about Lebron and how he just isnt a very smart player when there is pressure on the line.

Refs didn't do us any favors....z got killed a few times and the refs swallowed their whistles.

They were getting smoked before Z went down, it just speeded up the smoking process when he went down.

I'm really worried about the pride this team is not showing. The next person who drives the lane should be knocked on his ass. I just don't think we have anyone who cares enough to do it.

Terrible half, although a reasonably positive finish to the half.

Cant pin this on LeBron. He isn't playing great, but has little to no support. Z again is toughing it out, but Marshall and Gooden have been major disappointments up front. The shooting guard combination of Pavlovic, Jones and Jackson has been awful, whilst Snow's defense has been unable to stop penetration. LeBron is firing away, sometimes unwarranted, but right now it better then nothing which is what the other option is.

Here's the quote from the dumbest Mod on the Scout.com forum:

"And some of you get mad at Barkley and Co. for calling this team pretenders...this isn't the first time we've come out on national TV and looked like an expansion team."

A 27-17 expansion team. No wonder so many fans are coming here!!!

Moo

Shouldv;e been a 3 point play for Z....

Expansion team is an exaggeration, but we do panic, rush things, and in general look very ordinary on National television often.

They were down 6 when Z left the game.

Nice little run here by the Cavs. LeBron cutting Miami's defense up to allow Z, Sasha and Snow to bury some open J's.

Another "Great" play by Lebron on D, who decided to let Wade sit on the block wide open and get an easy lay up while he watched th eball.

 

[Karma]

4 other players on the court too Mac.

Cavs staying close enough if they can make a run. Wade with 4 fouls helps. Need a couple of players to get hot.

 

[Karma]

Sasha coming to life with another 3 ball. Cavs down just 11 now!

 

[Karma]

Shaq and Wade both with 4 fouls. Here is the chance to make a run. Miami still have many threats but with that pair sitting we need to take some advantage and get this lead down to just under 10 for the 4th.

 

[Mac]

Very true...im not saying Marshall hasnt played like crap, because he has, but this is Lebrons team. He needs to step up the D here.

This is a perfect time to make a run. Shaq is out, Wade is out. Z and Lebron need to tune it up a notch.

 

[Mac]

Attack the rack!!!!! thats what we need!!!!!!!!!!1

Lebron and Anderson, nice dish Sasha
