The Cleveland Cavaliers started their Eastern Conference semifinal series against the New Jersey Nets with a win in Game 1 on Sunday afternoon. The following are my thoughts on today's win:
- I thought during today's game the long layoff had very little effect. The only thing I could notice was that we weren't very crisp in running our offensive sets in the first quarter.
- It was very clear today that Mike Brown out coached that midget of a coach for the Nets Larry Frank. It was very clear to see his strategy, make the big 3 for the Nets jump shooters and let our big men do their job against the mediocre front line of the Nets.
- I see during a timeout Jason Kidd had a ring tattooed on his left ring finger. Was just wondering how that's working out for ya J Kidd?
- OK Eric Snow haters get ready, E Snow is going to play a big role in this series. He has historically been a great defender on Vince Carter. If you don't believe me look back at when Snow was with the Sixers and they played the Raptors in the playoffs. Carter would go off on Philadelphia when Snow wasn't in the lineup.
- Great game by Sasha today, when he starts off taking the ball to the basket he is much more of an effective player and then it opens up his outside shot.
- Larry Hughes played another solid game at the point and hit some big jumpers down the stretch.
- Big props to Lebron for playing while being sick today. 21 points 11 boards and 7 assists while being under the weather is pretty damn good.
- Hey New Jersey please get rid of the red jerseys you are ruining the color of my television set. The first game this year that I had to wear Oakley's to watch the game.
- Big props to the Cavs for recognizing the three top picks of the Browns today. It was nice to let these athletes see how amped up this city gets for a big game.
- Just a hunch here but Mikki Moore never graduated from college.
The Cavs take on the Nets on Tuesday in game 2. Ill be back to blog about it after the game on Tuesday.
