I was impressed with how Kyrie looked tonight as well. You could tell he was hurting, but he sucked it up, and played hard.

Wonder what, if anything is wrong with Roses' wrist.

Biggest tip of the cap goes to Kyrie. I don't think anyone, including KI, expect him to go for 25. The previous two games he's been a liability and even asked his teammates if they wanted him out there. Unless he was playing "possum", that was a gutsy performance.

Lebron finally stepped up with a Lebron-like game.

I think this is going 7.

How unreal was Lebron tonight? 38 12 6 3 3

Here's a complete list of everyone who has done that in the post-season. http://www.basketball-reference.com/play-index/pgl_finder.cgi?request=1&player_id=&match=game&year_min=&year_max=&age_min=0&age_max=99&team_id=&opp_id=&is_playoffs=Y&round_id=&game_num_type=&game_num_min=&game_num_max=&game_month=&game_location=&game_result=&is_starter=&is_active=&is_hof=&pos_is_g=Y&pos_is_gf=Y&pos_is_f=Y&pos_is_fg=Y&pos_is_fc=Y&pos_is_c=Y&pos_is_cf=Y&c1stat=pts&c1comp=gt&c1val=38&c2stat=trb&c2comp=gt&c2val=12&c3stat=ast&c3comp=gt&c3val=6&c4stat=stl&c4comp=gt&c4val=3&order_by=pts

If you'd rather not click the link, I'll summarize the list: Michael Jordan, Game 3, Eastern Semi's 1989
Damn, Jordan's numbers were sick (top numbers) ... Not the LBJ's were not.

I agree with this b/c I think Gasol will be back. He probably couldn't played tonight (I'm assuming) but it wasn't a "win-or-go-home" scenario.

That's better. A few on Twitter tweeted it was 11-15 for the cavs.

I think assist-to-TO ratio is a better indicator of success. Makes it closer for their performances.

Amen. I thought they would only have four days off but if they close out Chicago tomorrow (highly skeptical of this) and WASH/ATL goes 7, they will have 6 days rest, I believe.

We need the rest, especially Kyrie. He's shooting well which is good but what makes him special is his ability to get to the basket and create for the rest of the team. Lebron's back could also use a rest as he's been putting the team on his back this entire series and will probably have to do it next series as well.

Kyrie's biggest issue, right now, from what he's said is that he has no "lift." He said he got treatment on the leg/foot as much as possible before the game and felt "good but I still had no lift."

As a side note, did anyone hear Gibson's postgame comments about the "classless" Cleveland fans throwing stuff at him? I'm just hoping the Chicago fans, who have less class, don't decide to pelt the players walking out on the floor before game 6. With the freak injury to Love it would about be our luck to have a major player get seriously injured by a flying object.

Chicago fans showed great class when they openly cheered Lebron staying on the floor in pain...

Chicago players showed a lot of class when they trash a city, and kick players on the floor.

I'm just hoping with it being in Chicago one of the Cavs players doesn't get pelted with something. Just hope they win the series and it ends tomorrow.

Westlake police responded to an altercation this morning between Kendrick & Vanity Perkins. Oh boy.

In a 911 call released by Westlake Police, the caller says "woman is hitting the man" who was trying to get out of the car.

Took place at Crocker and Hilliard at 9:37 A.M.
