  Not gonna lie...I turned on Billions until I get a text with about 2 minutes left in 3rd.

  Just saw that stat. Dear god, just insanity.

  You think that is negative, I text my brother and his response "not happy about it." SMFH
• cat_lover

  Held them to 40 points in the 2nd half. Lebron took that game over/
  Go Cavs.

  Lolol. How can someone NOT be happy with that win?
  
  Would I have preferred a 30 point cavs blowout the entire game? Sure. But getting out of the East isn't going to be a walk in the park.

  Haden was at the game. Game may have deteriorated, but his love/representation for Cleveland has not.

  Haden is the Nick Swisher of the Browns. It's great that you love the city and all, but you've got to produce or go somewhere else.

  Hopefully this was the smack in the face/wake up call that they needed. Nice comeback.

  Lebron James is the MVP. Need proof? Watch game 3. He willed this team to victory without KI and KL.

  Also Channing Frye is a big time player. He may end up being the greatest acquisition in Cavs history.

  Whoooooaaaaaaa there...pump the breaks. Up until, like last night...Frye's been pretty average to not great all year. Granted he had an unbelievably tough year family wise...but playing wise, he's been bad. Especially on defense.

  Then why was he playing over our Max contract PF?

  For 1 game you mean?!? That's REALLY broad statement to make...for 1 game. Using that line of thinking...Derron Williams is better than Kyrie, because he played over him last night, right?

  Not just one game. Frye has been making a substantial impact off the bench since we acquired him last year. And what did we get him for? A bag of peanuts?

  In most instances after the first half I would of said "f" this and went about my night but I hung in there and told my 11 yr old son if they get this to 10 going into the 4th they have this. Bron was in super beast mode last night.

  Sums up your post nicely.
  
  LOL @ Monta.
• sleeper

  

  BTW Cavs not only tied the largest comeback in playoff history last night(26 points) they also tied the consecutive Round 1 win record at 20 games. If they win Game 4, they will own that record.

  Cavs have tied/broken many playoff records in the last 2 years.

  Monta was fucked regardless. He was either getting a poster, or looking silly for guessing wrong.
  
  Great D by Shump btw. He has had two solid defensive outings now. I hope it is coming back to him.

  He just got out of the way honestly with plausible deniability that thought a pass to Korver was coming for a 3.
  
  The correct play is to go foul Lebron before he gets to the paint.

  I agree.
  
  Monta Ellis is not stopping LeBron at full speed by himself. That would be an easy and 1 for Lebron.
