LOL Awesome garbage basket by Nate to get me a perfect gamepicker.

Thanks Nate.

Marbury killed us this game. Gibson had 24 points. Isiah should have never put Marbury back in the game.

we took 23 free throws as a team and james took 22 by himself its bull**** and im tired of reffs always giving people such as himself every call i mean of course we werent going to win cause its the cavs and james and there home..we played real good but cavs had osme extra players the reffs

Are you seriously going to blame one man on the team woes, the team was playing zone if you knew what that mean that means BOTH guards rotate.

Also there were missed free throws, are you going to blame all that on Marbury?

They only had 3 guys in double figures.

Funny thing is, even though LeBron had 45, we still win if we prevent Gibson from having a career high in the regular season.

That was the turning point.

I would blame this one on Steph and Jamal. They just can't let Boobie go offf like that. I mean if that didn't remind you of what we've seen for the last few years I don't know what would. This was a game we could easily have won with just a little bit of D on those 3's. I hope Isiah rips those 2 for leaving him open time and time again.

Outside of that everything looked pretty good. I don't think it was a terrible opening game. The cavs do have pride and they were at home, so they turned it up in the 4th. We didn't respond to that and so we lost. It's amazing how one mini run was the difference in the game. We were outplaying them for so much of the game and then we just let it slip away.

Now they need to go home and get this next game.

^ Dude we played a GOOD game all things considered.

And we still lost........to a pretty bad team.

I honestly don't know if we can play much better on the road, and seeing as how I honestly don't think the Cavs will even make the playoffs, that's a scary thought.

Q for 3. Isiah going for the surprise factor on that one. So shrewd.

I think we might be the worst 3-PT shooting team in the league.

Certainly one the worst. And we didn't seem to be able to guard Gibson. I did like the fact that we turned the ball over less than they did. I also liked seeing Craw going to the line more - he needs to take more free throws than 3 pt shots and he did tonight.
