thanks mate. forgot about that site.

92-85 to bobcats - stupid foul on the screen by mo williams

 

[SaintsPremiers08]

Cmon CAVS!

 

[sheller891]

lol, lebron not "taking over" in the 4th and we cant do shit

just goes to show

 

[Dirtywhirl]

Poor 4th quarter by both teams, Charlotte didn't hit a field goal for the last 9 minutes but Cleveland couldn't take advntage. Delighted with that win.

 

[hamG]

BJ Durant time, woo.

 

[WALL-e]

Cavalols?

 

[celtic_pride]

I just read the stats Durant has been averiging this year 27 pts, 5 boards 3 assists, if he isn't an all-star this year, they might as well chuck the whole thing away.

Can see him eventually being a multiple league MVP winner one day as well.

What an elite talent he is ...
And the best part is he doesn't seem like an arrogant FIGJAM like Kobe or Lebron

Ever heard of a thing called good defense? Gerald Wallace has, as he held LBJ to 1-5 shooting in the final quarter. Apart from those shots, LBJ had 1 assist, and there were only about 5-8 possessions (hard to tell from a gametrack) that didnt have something attributed to him.

I dont think its hard to see that Shaq is a really bad fit for this team. Shaq was out, they played good ball and won. Now hes back they lose again. Will be interesting to see how they go over the next few weeks with Shaq back in the lineup.

 

[SaintsPremiers08]

Houston still haven't scored in the 2nd half..halfway through the Third, lol

 

[Hodges]

Cavalols?

I prefer Lololiers. You get more lols.

Were you watching Hodges? I would have thought they'd have stuck S-Jax onto The Crabulous One.

 

[SaintsPremiers08]

Rockets don't even look like scoring this QTR

 

[hamG]

So what fake injury did Lebron get today?

agreed about shaq. shocking fit for this team. hes a woeful defender these days aswell and has got no explosiveness.

however, watching lebron in the last, they often werent getting him involved. lebron was like 9-13 from field entering the fourth, wallace keeping him to 70%...not that good
they didnt go back to lebron in the 4th - you can never shut him down. and when lebron did drive once, mo williams offensive foul. lebron had to take over but didnt and we couldnt score (countless missed threes)

cavs with shaq:
90 ppg allowed
30 ppg allowed in paint
47% three point shooting

cavs without shaq:
100 ppg game allowed
40 ppg allowed in paint
40% 3 pt shooting

The W-L record isnt as good but its clear that the Cav's ceiling as a team is much higher with shaq. just a matter of getting him incorporated.

 

[sblack]

OH and SIXTEEN, OH and SIXTEEN.



Flagrant1 called on Lopez

 

[Drummond]

Jonas Jerebko are you kidding me?! 22 points, 8-10, 4-4 on 3's.

= Loss to Clips

 

[X_box_X]

Why have the Rockets played this fourth quarter (nine mins of it) with only one starter?

 

[Borgsta]

cavs with shaq:
90 ppg allowed
30 ppg allowed in paint
47% three point shooting

cavs without shaq:
100 ppg game allowed
40 ppg allowed in paint
40% 3 pt shooting

Stats like this are rubbish and very incomplete. They missed Varejo for a few of the games Shaq was out for aswell.

= Loss to Clips

Care factor?

I want a great draft pick.

Did Pierce just knee Bosh in the nuts? Thats a low blow right there.

Oh and has anyone noticed Portland being taken to school by Memphis? Down 46-24 on their home court, Memphis has been playing good ball since Iverson left.

 

[Embers]

Portland getting r*ped by Memphis, could be 50+ if Portland play with this amount of boobery, finally i catch these overrated boobs out, without Roy they are worse than Minnesota
