Cavs Forth Quarter

Gonna blog the fourth quarter. I went to the gym, when I left the gym we were up 7, now we're up 2. So I thought my ramblings maybe negative enough to be interesting.

10:03 Shaq turns the ball over after Brad Miller fouls him twice. Miller jawing at refs, dragged to bench running his mouth like a drunk after last call. The Q is dead, wake up Cleveland you probably don't have to work in the morning. Don't know what is with Cleveland fan these days, they're rowdy for a 5-11 Browns team, but seem scared to get behind a real contender. Most likely the result of being kicked square in the nuts over the years. I get enough hot girls turn you down, when one really digs you, your defense mechanism goes up.

10:13 Derek Rose hits what should have been a three point play, but the refs call it off. Amazing shot, amazing play, it means nothing. Bulls answer the poor call by violating the 24 second shot clock. Oh, and Reggie Miller may have been the greatest clutch shooter of all time, but someone should hide his microphone, just an awful commentator.

10:16 Lebron James drives and hits a ridiculous lay up, is fouled, and hits a free throw. On the other end, the Bulls continue to out-work the Cavs on the boards and get an offensive put-back. Whats next, why of course, Mo Williams misses a three. A fan grabs the ball and stands up like he's going to throw the ball in for Chicago, sit down 4 drink guy.

10:18 Delonte West hits a huge three. However, Chicago continues to get second shot chances on the offensive end. If this "effort" by the Cavs persists against Boston's big three in the next round, they won't win a game. Lebron is struggling, wonder if he'll pull a Lebron-Against-the-World offense to seal this one. Derek Rose has been more impressive tonight, Chicago should win based on his offense alone.

10:23 It's like my last paragraph was a pre-courser, Cavs up three, Lebron drives hits a lay-up, is fouled, and misses the free throw. James then blocks Rose, which results in a missed Delonte West three. For some reason Chicago's offense rebounding is counter-balanced by their awful free throw shooting, it's the difference in the game. Cavs up 4.

10:25 Mo Williams fouled and I have to say the Cavs are getting all the calls tonight. Brad Miller fouled out, Noah and Gibson have four. James grabs a defensive rebound and Antawan Jamison drains a huge three. Cavs starting to pull away, anyone else think the Cavs may be tied in this series without Jamision? Two 20+ point games, this is a good sign, as the Cavs did not have this contribution last year. Oh, and Lebron James is quietly approaching a triple double.

10:31 Another defensive rebound for Cleveland, but the Cavs turn it over. This is the behavior that will cause them to loose a series against Boston or Orlando. Protect the damn ball. James squares up and misses a three, Cavs up seven. Andy grabs a foul off the rebound and now the Cavs are up 5, two minutes left. Jamison is called for a charge, it would have counted too, Andy took a great pass from him and dunked it.

10:34. Cavs up three, Chicago putting their head down and Mo Williams is still sucking. The Cavs foul AGAIN, Delonte West this time! Cavs are crapping out big-time and my heart rate is approaching a casket-ready pace. Can't stand it when Cleveland teams, pull a Cleveland. Garbage play in the last two minutes! Championship teams seal the deal, they don't make the game interesting! Cleveland should be smoking these fools and flicking them in the street.

10:40 Rose misses a shot that almost goes in, again. Cavs fans still suck, as does Mo Williams who misses yet another shot. If it weren't for Noah knocking the ball out of bounds, Chicago woud be in a really good place. By the way, Derek Rose's amazing "and 1" play that was called off, is the difference in the score. Cavs up three with 37.4 left.

10:43 Cavs royally screw up, terrible, horrible, nonsense possession that results in a Cleveland turn-over. You can thank Andy, and the Bulls defending Lebron perfectly. Even though they knock 17 seconds off the clock, Bulls have the ball with 17 seconds left, only down three. Bulls out-play Cleveland for the third time this series, the so-called talent differential is the only reason the Cavs will most likely move on. Again, I can't say this enough, not good enough to even win a game against Boston with this effort.

10:46 Derek Roses misses a shot and Lebron is fouled with 7.8 left. Lebron hits one shot, but guess what he is clearly INJURED. He shoots the second shot LEFT HANDED because his right-arm is hurting him. In the huddle Lebron in pain, I don't care who wins this game. If that arm isn't right its over, over for this year and the future.

10:49 Cavs fans still dead even though the Cavs win and they should be. This is a funeral, for the entire franchise if Lebron has seriously hurt his arm. We may have out-Cleveland ourselves tonight folks.
