Game 33 | Cleveland @ Atlanta | December 29, 2009 | 7:00 EST

What are you thinking if you are the Hawks? Cavs played as awful as they possibly could and still beat you by double digits in your house. Lebron was channeling Larry Hughes and Mo was total ass after the first part of the 2nd quarter. Shoot 25% from 3 and get beat to the line by a healthy margin. Not really sure what I just watched there, but I'll take it.

good job by cavs

 

[Zog]

he was! he was saying great job! he was applauding his play... what were u looking at???

I just thought he looked weird standing there wildly clapping his hands not saying anything, but I guess if that's how he wants to say great game, that's ok... Me personally I would have ran up to Delonte and told him while giving him a big hug.

 

[MikeSwim07]

That was one ugly game. Happy we won though. Lebron played like crap.

DELONTE and Mo had great games.

Z with the dagger 3!

 

[Earl]

Why is that the games I don't watch end up being great

 

[Clevelandfan15]

Sloppy but a very good win!

Here's the weird +/- stat of the night:

Jamario Moon: + 13 with 0 points, 0/5 shooting, 1 assist, 1 rebound, 1 block, and 1 steal in 17 minutes.

 

[Jezzar]

Why? His shot was off... so what? He was all over the place defensively... hit the boards hard, and did a pretty good job of distributing the ball. He was two rebounds and five steals (yeah, he had 5 steals tonight) from a quadruple double. Yeah, he shot some dumb shots, but he didn't play bad and the dumb shots were only dumb because he couldn't make anything tonight.

He's one of maybe 5 players in the league that you look at his stat line of 14/10/8/5/1 and say that he sucked.

His jumper was off and he could have realised that after the 4th or 5th one...He didn't need to take 10 of them. IMHO, he is the one who took Mo off the game by calling LeIso's and going LeChuck in them.

Also, most of these steals were created by Moon and Andy so I'm not going to give him credit for other's defensive efforts.

 

[DougHeil]

Just wow.

Has anyone else connected the dots yet? Ever since West has been very focused quite a few games ago, the team has ALL stepped up and played harder and with more intensity. Is it a coincidence? Mo has played with determination. Shaq has seemed much more motivated. LeBron can play a shitty game and it truly does not matter. Well, shitty for LeBron. He did have 10 assists and 8 boards. Delonte West; A. Beast.

 

[Mike Manifesto]

I love the fact we aren't a one man team anymore. IT FEELS GOOD to win by double digits and LeBron being the FOURTH leading scorer.

...and 9 blocks from quintuple double

 

[cschneider27]

I was happy to see a win without LeBron dropping 30, but that was some ugly shit. Z is such a great option to go after with a three, he shocks the shit out of a defense with it. Also, Delonte...man o man, Delonte. Atlanta is going to be a whole new animal (no pun intended) tomorrow I think though. There is no way they come out playing like they did tonight. The served up a big egg for 8:42 seconds of the 4th quarter

 

[Brandname]

Yeah... let's NOT trade Delonte this year.
