Now if we manage to lose it will just upset me more considering they have the worst starting guards in the league, shows what you can do by being the hungriest team and playing great D every night and having outstanding team chemistry.

How many days a week do you have this class?

So no Mo tonight? That's a good thing. Who is their starting PG then?

i think we can win this if we just take shaq out of the game. we've already proven to keep jumpshooters struggling if on this team for years.

Yeah Queen James will be handling the ball and the little guy they use to replace mo is called 'boobie' and is apperently also standing around the perimeter waiting to catch and shoot.

 

In other news..... thank God this is on national TV because out of all the announcers and commentators in the NBA; the Cleveland ones are absolutely the worst.

 

I hope we win, but i can live with a L as long as we show some energy and competitiveness.

Defending the shooters is gonna be the key. LBJ will get his. Dwight isn't gonna be a factor, he will get some bogus calls in the first.

That Toronto guy is pretty bad tho. Every play it sounds like a highlight. Very annoying.

The Boston guys are probably my least favorite.

Daniel Gibson is the starting PG according to Espn.go.com.

 

Here are pictures of the Cav's starters.

Mo Williams is the reason we lost the first game. That and not having Shard or Anderson. Honestly, I'm stunned they've kept winning so much without Mo, he was that playing that well before he got hurt.

 

Now they don't have Mo, so we need to keep LBJ out of the paint like we used to with Lee and MP, with Dwight lurking. Now we just need to do it with Barnes and MP, with Dwight lurking. James' jumper is better this season, but you'd still rather take your chances with that. If we do that, as well as keep D12 out of serious foul trouble... Magic win.

 

I honestly didn't think we'd have a prayer.. until we blew out Chitown and got some timely rest. Now I think it's at least a coin flip as to who will win, if not better.

 

As far as local announcers, Toronto's not so bad... the two worst by miles are Boston and Houston.
