LeBron has mentioned 'the injury he got in game 7" a number of times... I thought it was just cramps... so that concerns me
Love is a physical mess... both arms, hands, shoulders are in bad shape..
George Hill and Rodney's back
Korver's foot
Tristan's calf

and there's a long way to go to Eastern finals and maybe NBA championship

PS When did it become an NBA rule that you are not allowed to follow your shot? cuz we never follow out shots

considering how long it takes these chumps to get back on defense, i don't know that following their shot is a viable option.

So, they spent the first 6 minutes forcing Love on about 8-10 possessions, I think 3 ended up in points. Meanwhile, Toronto kept scoring on the other end. And there's your early 5-6 point hole already.

Guess it could be worse. LeBron has been coasting this quarter. Toronto getting hit with some fouls that might pile up. Just keep it close in the 1st half.

This Raptors team could lead by 20 and I'd still think the Cavs were going to win the game.

Love has been highly inefficient tonight, but even if he continues to score 20+ on just 50% shooting every night, the Cavs will be a force to be reckoned with. Scoring efficiency isn't as important to this Cavs team (where LeBron shoots 75% every night) so much as finding someone other than LeBron to generate offense so he can rest on that end every once in a while.

I don't think Lowry will shoot 6/7 in the second half. Nor do I think Toronto's seven makes on 14 shots from 3 is sustainable. The Cavs can definitely continue playing like this, though. And they're only 3/12 from 3.

Raps had 2 threes off lucky bounces, plus 2 other shots that rolled in. They were on fire to start the 2Q. They have foul trouble. It's a 2 point game. Again, could be way off, but I have no sense of worry against this team.
