I still can't get used to Fred McLeod.

+/- 50 times Austin Carr says "throwing the hammer down" tonight?

Yes, the Rockets are a step up from the last two losses, but when you consider the way the Celtics have played the last two weeks AND they're at home.....I really expected a win.

DEFCON 2?

Yikes! According to the local forecast, we're supposed to get 6-8" inches of snow. The stow storm advisory starts at 6pm tonight and doesn't expire until tomorrow afternoon! Tonight's going to be interesting indeed driving downtown.

Aaaaahhhhhh The L Train brought the Hammer down!! LOL

The Cavs look good tonight. They took it to the Celtics.

Go Cavs!

Or The BSK Kendall Lewis. What happened to him? Haven't seen him in a long time. Since the Cleveland Rants days.

Looking at the outcome and LBJ's 38 points, I can't wait to hear what HD has to say about his experience.

Considering that the Browns lost the two games he went to, nice to see a positive outcome for him live in person.

Just got back from the game. Great time indeed! I even got to sit next to Browns WR Steve Sanders! Very cool guy and seemed down to earth. I didn't want to bother him, so I ust wished him good luck next season and left it at that.

Anyways, during a timeout they dropped parachute lottery tickets from the rafters and one was coming in our direction. At just the right time, I jumped and scooped it up over WR Steve freaking Sanders!!! How cool is that? I felt like a shutdown corner! He laughed and game me a fist bump.

Oh, and the game..... Can you say "statement"?!

Go Cavs!!!

The Q was definitely rocking tonight. Packed to its capacity, the crowd was very into the game. I've been to a few Cavs playoff games the last few years and this one certainly had a similar feel as far as crowd noise and magic in the air.

LeBron certainly stole the show though, both on the offensive and defensive end. The King had 38 spectacular points and held Paul Pierce to only 11.

I did think it was rather cheap that the Celtics seemingly surrendered with over 5 minutes to go in the 4th when they resorted to the intentional foul. As soon as Cleveland got the ball a Celtic would race over to Ben Wallace and wrap him up even though he was 9 feet from the ball. Seriously Boston?! There was over 5 minutes to go! Evidently they ran out of ideas on how to stop the Cavaliers.

Final Score 98-83. Cavaliers are now 19-0 at home and control home court in the Eastern Conference! This season is starting to feel very magical and I'm having a helluva time savoring every moment!

Go Cavs!!!!!
