Guest ATENEARS Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Wow, strange game but LeBron went hog-wild in the third scoring 16-points in two-and-a-half minutes. He was firing threes from everywhere and hitting nothing but net. Milwaukee hung tough though and the Cavs tighten the Defense to pull out an 111-103 win. Varajao got taken down by his face by Charlie Villanueva, and big Z came to the rescue, and showed unusually toughness - prompting Villanueva to grab Z by the throat and get ejected. Charlie Villanueva left with 26 Pts, 13 Rebs, and 6 Assists Z seemed to play with a bit more fire after the ruckus, hitting a three, and grabbing a pair of one-handed rebounds. Z pinned one rebound against the back board with one hand while remaining standing flat footed o the ground. Mo (23 points) did a nice job finishing off the game. Strange rotations tonight though, IMO. Kinsey got 27-mins, Boobie 29-mins, LeBron 40-mins. I couldn't get what Mike Brown was trying to do. JJ Hickson logged 11-mins and Jackson 2-mins, but it seemed like they played 30. Boobie handled the ball too much, and just doesn't have any part of his game going at the time being. I asked for more fouls, but we racked'em too early and the officials called too many ticky-tack reaching fouls. Szczerbiak and Varejao had 5 fouls, Gibson and Ilgauskas had 4 fouls. (NOTE: Wallace had no fouls in 23-mins to go with 0-points and 6-boards) Good Win and awesome display to 'witness' from LeBron James ... even Milwaukee fans had to be entertained. Lot's of Cavs fans in attendance in Milwaukee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ATENEARS Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 God damn...why do I have to be out partyin while Bron drops 55. ESPN will be running the highlights all afternoon, but keep in mind that even showing him rack up 16-points in 2:16, doesn't do justice to seeing it in real time. With each deep-deep-deep shot, you'd scream 'Nooooo', only to see them just keep ripping through the net ... it was sick. It started when he hit a pair just before the half, including a shot from nearly half court at the buzzer, and it carried over into the third where he just went off from Deep without ever even taking it to the hole. The Cavs bench was just going nuts ... everyone became a fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manbearpig Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 I loved it when the announcers were nearly screaming, "It's not fair!" We were howling with joy!! What an awesome display of talent! I thought it was an awesome game and a lot of fun to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosar_For_President Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 55 points doesn't mean anything without the triple double. He should of had 15 assists, 15 boards, 5 blocks and 5 steals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ATENEARS Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 55 points?! What a selfish prick!!! His 55 in Milwaukee was needed to pick-up a flat Cavalier team. Milwaukee is freaking tough and was playing very well that night. The 52 selfish clanks he kept launching in NY were just stupid and the reason why the Cavaliers as a team were off that night and found themselves fighting tooth-n-nail down the stretch with perhaps one of the worst teams in the NBA. Friday Night LeBron was sizzling-hot and feeling it and needed repeatidly fed to bring the Cavs back from a pulling-away Bucks team. In NY he was selfishly just chasing Kobe and it had very little to do with the Cleveland Cavaliers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTBH Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 There's a difference between scoring 50 because you're TRYING to score a lot for personal purposes ( New York ), and scoring 50 simply because you got hot and hit 8-11 from 3. ( Milwaukee) If you can't tell the difference between that, you're probably better off hangin' out over on the political board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only difference between the two games is that when Lebron went for heat checks against MIL, the response was in fuego. That, and Kobe didn't just put up a bunch in the same arena a few nights earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
