Pretty good start for the Cavs up 20-10 halfway through the 1st.

Slow night huh?

Cavs slacking on defense in the 2nd quarter. Up 5 with a minute left. 58 for the Cavs right now though, so a good half offensively.

Half

Cavs 60
Sixers 55

LeBron with 14 points, 2 boards, 3 assists and 2 steals at half.

Cavs have lead from the tip.

Bron is nasty. Ya'll know I'm a Lakers guy, but I love watching him play basketball. That is a block that he has NO business getting, but his help side/track down D is one of the best I have ever seen; if not the best I have ever seen.

Yeah, I'm not sure if there has ever been a guy that matches LeBron's anticipation on help side defense.

The best part about this help side D for Bron is that it is something he actually has developed over the years. When he first came in the League, he was one of the worst defenders in the game. And now I would throw him in the top 5-10 without questioning it.

I think he's been top 10 for a few years now--but there is no doubt about it now. He's a top 5 on-ball defender too when he wants to be. Guys like Kobe, LeBron and Wade make guys like Bowen, Battier, etc. look like mediocre defenders when they actually go after it--difference is those guys don't waste all their energy on that end obviously.

LeBron raining threes--keeping them in the game by himself.

Way to go Mo, stepping up at the right time.

Where the hell are all the Cavs fans tonight? I own this thread lol.

Sixers had 1 FG in the last 6 minutes of the 4th--another example of how the Cavs just turn on the defense when they need too. Thing is, it doesn't work every night I wish they'd just put the teams away in the 3rd rather than the 4th.

He's a good player but overrated at the same time. He is explosive though and it makes him fun to watch.

Iguodola is the most overrated player in the league.

He got superstar money and tries so hard to be a superstar, but he's not. He's a good player and would make for a great sidekick, but he'll NEVER be THE guy...
