This is very disturbing at this point in the year... I am not at all worried about Mo and Dwest a combined 2-17.. that stuff happens...
What I am worried about is this recurring trend of our bench bringing NOTHING... Its our starters or nothing...

Lebron just needs to keep driving and hope he can hit his free throws. Stop the clock and get shots. We also need defensive stops...we've been trading baskets all night.

I'm speechless. The first three quarters of this game were some of the absolute worst basketball I've seen this team play.

Get Excl season tickets at the Q!!  Ok, seriously, this was nuts... Thank you Mo Williams! What a player... the guy has his worst shooting nite of the season through 4 and half quarters, but the guy's confidence just never wavered... unbelievable... Mo also drew a charge and got a big deflection down the stretch... Wow...

You are very wrong. Games like this are exactly what shows if a team has the fortitude to win a title. The Cavs played like garbage all night, they just had a bad night, and still found a way to win a ugly game.

LOL ... around the beginning of the fourth quarter I was like, man ... "I should just LEAVE right now, and give the Cavs a chance to get back into this ... they just seem to plain suck whenever I watch". But then a 19 point deficit became 15 ... then 12, then 9 ... and I stayed. Holy heck what a game!!
That place was rocking! I'd say it was probably 60/40 Clips to Cavs fans. I was in a Luxary box seat that turned out to be 10 Cavs fans and 2 Clippers fans. When Mo hit that three, I think our box exploded.
Man, what an awful game for three quarters though. Probably the worst I've seen us all year. Then they decided to flip the switch in the fourth and play some defense ... and actually make shots. I think Mo Williams was like 1 for 15 heading into the fourth (he even missed a few free throws), but made the big shot when it mattered.
So yeah ... I'm going to TRY and go to bed tonight. I don't think I have any voice left though.

I almost went tonight as well, if it wasn't for finals this week I would have been there. I caught the game on FSW west though. When Mo hit that three, I jumped up and hit my head on my fan..  We really did steal that game.

If you don't have HD, next time look for TWTV. It's the channel that shows advertisments for pay per view and such, and it's an alternate channel for the Cavs. They are usually on that channel if the Blow Jackets are on FSO.

seriously...look when that was typed...3rd quarter...they weren't playing like a championship team and looked like nothing was going to be different the next quarter in a half. It was taking everything AC had not to put down his headset and chew the team during a timeout..lol, That being said..i went to bed and woke up to found that won..gotta feel good for the cavs, but i'm still concerned about our lack of defense down low and our bench as of late..running out of time and need to figure out who our rotation will be come playoffs. i figure another week or two and smith should have had plenty of time to get acclimated and MB should know what he's got now. ugly win, but it still counts as a W. Now tied for best in the NBA. Don't think too many saw that coming. Been a nice distraction from the circus that is the browns. I still say the cavs are the team that lerner should have modeled the FO after.. Cavs FO is the best in this town by a long long margin, and it reflects on the court. Best team in cleveland by a long margin as well

LOL, I looked at the clock around the start of the fourth quarter, and noticed it was well past midnight ... and I was thinking, "yep, everyone in Cleveland has probably turned this one off." After the game I was thinking ... everyone in Cleveland that went to bed is going to pick up a newspaper and say, "WTH!?!"

I noticed Joe was out on the court during the entire early warmups. When most others had gone back into the locker room, he was still out there practicing his spot-catch 15-footers. Looks like he's putting in the time during practice anyway.

I'm wondering how much of it was "good" Cleveland ... versus "bad" Clippers. The Cavs really stepped up their D, and was finally starting to hit shots in the 4th ... but the Clippers started to look bungling as well. They had a few turnovers and were playing pretty sloppy on the offensive end. We outscored them 35-16 in the 4th quarter!!! We only scored 34 in the entire first half!

Oh ... also thought Lebron looked good, for having such a poor shooting night. His shots weren't falling, but he wasn't really settling for those Larry-Hughesque 21-footers. Quite a few times he would dribble around the screen and get picked up, and I thought ... "Oh great, here comes the step-back 21 footer" ... but to his credit, he never really tried it more than a few times. He kept attacking the rim and getting to the line.

lololololol i love reading posts during the game, and then after...
you should never cry bloody murder during a cavs game, wait til the end...
like i said, not pretty, but who cares? a win is a win, and we need each and every one.
you know mike brown teams come to play in the postseason. just because they didn't show up until the 4th quarter of a game against one of the worst does not bother me.
and they are def. championship caliber. after all, the team that waxed us on friday lost not too long ago in that building to that same clips team.
the clippers are not as bad as their record. they have talent, i really think they are another guy or too and a fresh start away from being decent...
with that said, welcome to the 50 win plateau.
as much as i am sick of dwyane wade and this bogus mvp talk, i hope they can take down the undermanned celts team. 3 games up would bring me a smile.

They are a head coach and a new owner away from being a good team. Those two are probably worst in the league.

one thing i do like, and after watching the replay a few times. is that teams are now going to be a little more hesitant to just pack the lane in late game situations with lbj driving. i understand that you gotta stop him, but if you leave mo open, he's going to bury you just the same. that guy has been nothing but clutch all year, and it's been magnified over the past 2 weeks.
he has a killer instinct. plain and simple. i wanna have his kid.

Speaking of Wade, I hope they give him the MVP trophy this year. I want Lebron to have a major chip on his shoulder during the playoffs, especially if we meet the Heat in round two.
I'd rather have Lebron get the Finals MVP than the regular season MVP trophy... 
As far as last night goes, I was watching the score on my iPhone while watching a movie with the wife (Body of Lies - not bad, not real good either). When we were 19 down, I figured it would be a bad loss that would cost us in playoff seeding. After a while, I checked the score again and we were within 2 with a few minutes left....at that point, I KNEW the game was ours. A win is a win.

Ok, I get that,but maybe you should watch and then react rather than over reacting every time they arent winning by 20 at half time.

Whoa, if we can find another board member that watched that flick last night....we'd have ourselves a "Stand By Me" goocher.
I thought it was good...but the "lie" at the end wasn't set up very well. The wife and I knew it was one of the two sides....not the third (don't want to give anything away).
3 out of 5 stars.

I watched that movie Saturday night with the gf and her dad. Not bad - reminded me of that 90s movie with Robert Redford and Brad Pitt??? Kenny Lofton was at the game last night as well: http://i44.tinypic.com/2l9p5zq.jpgAnd I was up for the whole thing...thank you CST! Awesome game, and knew we were gonna give it a fight at the end. I just thought we would get close, then fail. The Clips just fell apart.

Well, it would have be easier to win that election had he been waved around properly for the tying run in game 7 of the 2007 ALCS against Boston. Damn the 3rd base coach!
