I can't imagine a more miserable feeling than having Jamario Moon contribute against your team.

 

Try having Rafer Alston score 26 points in game 4 of the ECF. smile_flush.gif

 

Moon had a surprising stroke in last nights game but it's hard to feel that bad for the Bulls.

 

They had 50+ points in the paint, 13 offensive rebounds, 20 more shots than the Cavs and only 4 TO's. To think they lost by 10, with all that in their favor, is a testament to how superior Cleveland is (or maybe how bad the Bulls are). icon_razz.gif

 

or testament to how bad cleveland's interior defense is maybe? how do you give up that much in the paint to a very small bulls team? I hope that this is just this series or just the bulls being that good for the cavs sake... if you give up that much to the magic you loose... easily...

Its the Shaq effect he only played 15 minutes in the game because he had foul trouble, Cavs have the best interior defense in the paint when Shaq is on the floor. And if you were to tell me that a team had 13 offensive rebounds and 20 more shots then there opponent and they lost I would say the other team was playing great defense. Anything the Cavs do go or bad Im not gonna count for them in this series, they still have to get everyone incorporated and fix some things up mainly turnovers and transition D.

 

50+ points in the paint= great defense? lol... ok... and the cavs won because you have lebron which is sad because you should be winning these games easily... as much as you guys want to make it out like the bulls are good, they're not... they have Rose and that's it. Noah is a spark plug but he should be getting dominated by shaq but shaq is out of shape even with loosing 20 lbs. I can't wait to see how our pick and roll destroys him...

I forgot all defense is played in the paint, did you not read the part about Shaq? Him not in the game is the reason why they scored in the paint. Shaq played 15 minutes Noah played 41 minutes and Shaq is clearly not in game shape. He looks real good early in the games and looks tired late and thats directly linked to not being able to touch a ball for 6 weeks. Once he gets his wind back he will be good, we dont need him for the entire game only 25-30 minutes. As for Lebron how is it sad? He scored 40 on 23 shots thats efficient it would have been a different story if he was going one on 5 which he didnt or took 25-30 shots but he didnt. The Cavs helped set him to play one on one instead of him dribbling at the top of the key and jacking up a jumper. And he did get help from Shaq who had 8 pts and 7 rebs in 15 minutes, 14 pts from Jamison, 12 pts and 6 assists from Mo(no turnovers) and the bench produced.

 

You're not worried about the fact that lebron basically had to play out of his mind in the fourth to beat the bulls at home? i mean the lead changed like 4 or five times... Against the bulls, this bulls team is not good. They do not match up well against the cavs and the cavs should beat the bulls without lebron not because of him playing out of his mind. That won't happen every night and to say that 8 pts and 7 rebs in 15 mins is support is kind of sad too... I'm not saying that this is the way the cavs are going to play against the magic or any other team at the top but if they do they're going to loose a lot more than they will win...

I would be worried if the Cavs played this way against a team like the Magic or even the Celtics. Not worried about the Cavs playing this way against the Bulls.

 

Lebron pretty much always takes over in the last 5 minutes of a game. It doesn't work as well against a team like the Magic because of Howard in the middle. Lebron would distribute much more in a game with a real defensive threat (Noah is not a threat). Also, Lebron was feeling his jumper. I am okay with him taking jumpers when he is in a groove.

 

This last game was a very weird game from the Cavs perspective. Jamison didn't play the entire 4th quarter. Shaq was in foul trouble early and never got in a rhythm. Basically option B and C for the Cavs sat on the bench for the 4th quarter. I like that the Cavs adapted and still won.

 

Jamario will probably never be that hot again, but if he wasn't that hot on Monday Brown would have pulled him for Jamison.

And the Bulls cannot grab a ****ing rebound... or shoot jumpers, or attack the rim. They should just have Rose throw up floaters all game 'cause I don't think he has ever missed one in his career.

haha ya floaters could be the worst shot in bball, has to do with the rotaion of ball or something.

But Rose is amazing at them he's hitting them from free throw line distance (that one where he like pulled up for a jump shot and did a one hander instead for some reason)

 

note to Magic: ATTACK rim and have good paint defense.
