Wow great win, sure looked bad most of the game. Once again saved by SuperFlip. He was money in the 4th, taking it strong to the rack (what a concept!) Then ices it at the line! I see another win streak coming!
Nice comeback and the D really picked up in the 4th. Still, it was a game that the Cavs should be winning and some of the usual problems were repeated. But I have to be positive that they managed to get the win.
Flip came up huge in the 4th. Z was solid all game but once again after going to him on the 1st half the Cavs ignored him for most of the 2nd. Z should have scored over 30 today if the Cavs would have looked to him more.
Nice to see Sasha get 10 minutes although he didn't do much.
LeBron once again playing 47 minutes. There was no rush to get him back in after only 1 minute of rest in the 2nd quarter. Cavs actually cut the lead by 2 while he was out. If he becomes injury prone after 10 years in the league the Cavs have no one to blame but themselves.
It is good to get 2 games that should have been won. Cavs are holding onto the 4th spot and need to get games like the last 2.

It was pretty well played for the most part. The Lakers were shooting out of control in the first half. When the D was set, it was pretty good but still the Lakers were shooting pretty well. The eventually cooled off but really what got the Cavs back into the game was actually taking it inside on the offensive end and not turning it over. When you don't turn it over, you don't get run outs and they don't have to play transition D. The Cavs transition D is pretty bad still.

I'm glad they let us have our ass whoopings early so we can recoup and get back on our feet. They are going to go out there get throttled and come back and have to play some away games vs the top 4 in a 7 game series

:woohoo: :cheers: :headbang: :yay:
Yeah, baby! I just got done watching the game on tivo, and then celebratory dancing all over my living room.
I'm so glad I watched this AFTER the Ohio State game. I feel much better now.
Did anyone else notice that at one point Brown had Sasha and Flip as our backcourt? Umm, if coach doesn't mind playing Flip at point, why in the hell is Jones still getting minutes? Sasha should be getting all of Jones minutes. His offensive game isn't consistent, but it's not like Jones is really contributing any offense. And on defense, while Sasha may not be a world beater, he's light years ahead of Jones. Plus, Sasha is young with good potential and should improve if he gets PT. How much better do you honestly see Jones getting?
OK, back to celebrating.

Outside of Coach Brown again riding LeBron all game, his substitutions were much better. He actually went with the players doing the job. Ilgauskas had a few more minutes then normal, and Sasha actually got some burn to freshen our backcourt down the stretch.
Great confidense shown by Flip despite having LeBrons touch at the line. Great to have a contributor outside Ilgauskas and James.
