Cavs vs Wizards = INSTANT CLASSIC...

Only if we won..:chuckles: It's true..this game you'd enjoy watching again down the road..had we lost...block it out of your mind.
 
Not always pretty but nice to get the win. Wouldn't have come down to the wire if the Cavs could hit their damn FT's. 15-30 from the line is pathetic.

Huge game for Hughes. It would be great if even if he got even a little close to this level on a regular basis.
LeBron big as usual even if it didn't always seem to me to be one of his better games. I guess he's set the bar pretty high.

Continue to like what I'm seeing from Gooden. The mistakes are less than before and his aggressive play is nice to see.

Bad night for Z. The refs didn't treat him too well but that's not an excuse.

The perimeter veterans didn't do much to lessen the concern about them. Wesley continues to look done. He may only be able to be counted on as a rare contributer. The lack of quickness at the PG position will be a worry. It might be a good idea to speed up the developmental process for Brown & Gibson and get one or both prepared to play some minutes on a regular basis.
 
If this is the is the Larry that will show up every night then it is going to be a fun season.

Great win despite terrible FT shooting, a non-existent Zydrunas and Wesley, and lots of turnovers. A win is a win and I'll take this one.
 
how was the defense of lebron james?any improvement?

Damn I wish mike brown would give more playing time to shannon and gibson than wesley and hmm pavs or newble.
 
I can't stand Wesley already..he bricked wide open shots..threw halfcourt lob passes with no zip on them..and didn't do anything particulalry extraordinary on D..

Even as a mentor..is this the guy we want as a role model for Gibson and Brown?

A 36 year old vet throwing cross court passes with 4 TO's in 5 minutes? What kind of role model is that? I want this man 300ft from the rooks..
 
I'm thinking the same thing after one game cdt... he looked tentative and clueless.
 
Wesley was awful... Bring back Bobby Phills...
 
I realized just now Larry Hughes had nothing to do with Gilbert's offense it was the Pisser...forgive me it's only the first game..

I'm so naive :(

No doubt....:thumbup:
 
My Thoughts:

1. Anyone notice how poor our team looked when either Larry or Lebron was out? The Cavs looked great when both were out there.

2. Wesley is done

3. D. Jones gets not only open 3's but WIDE open 3's and is not hitting them consistently

4. Drew Gooden looks light years ahead of any other frontcourt player for the Cavs

What the Cavs need: start getting minutes for Brown and Gibson now.

^^^ There it is...

4 hours into the season...:chuckles:
 
we need Brown and Gbson ASAP!!!!!!!!

Wesley is aweful and DJones is looking just like last year which isnt good and Snow well he is Snow and we should all know what to expect from him

Sasha is still Sasha and Newble well lets just say I hope I never see hi on the court again.....

so we need Shannon or Daniel to help or Ferry needs to make another move

We are a piece away from being an extremly good team....I hate to say it but Jalen Rose is a guy who could help this team tremendously....In a perfect world we could package the trade exception with Damon Jones or David Wesley or Sasha for someone who can actually contribute

because CDT is right....with no LeBron and Larry both in we play worse much worse.....someone to help spell them and even play next to them with Snow out would make us such a deadly team cause Drew AV Marshall and hopefully Z will be a very tough front court rotation
 
What gets me is why would we play 3 guys all under 6'5"?

Snow 6 2 ish
Wesley 6 3 maybe?
Hughes is 6 4

Huge mismatch..maybe why Butler killed us..
