Cavs 89, Pistons 73–Excellent overall performance by the Cavs. The defense was very solid and the matchups actually worked in the Cavs favor, which I was not sure about. By relying on Ben Wallace and Anderson Varejao to play Rasheed Wallace 1-on-1, the rest of the Cavs were able to stick to their men outside and mostly give up contested jumpers.–There is no doubt in my mind, however, the ...

Maybe (James) can have Jay-Z there since LeBron’s all on his (shorts) anyway. And tell LeBron to cut that beard off and stop copying me.” Apparently this all goes deeper.

... Brian Windhorst of The Akron Beacon-Journal: "There are two more meetings between these teams this season and I am just waiting for an Anderson Varejao-Rasheed Wallace throw down. They were on each other tonight and in each other's faces. It was the first meeting for them since the playoffs, Andy was holding out in the previous matchup. They are throwing elbows and talking trash. Totally fun to watch. But once again it seemed like it was Rasheed who got out of his game, he just tossed up 3-pointers in the fourth. Which is what you want him to ...

... of the power forward. These rumors were around for a while, as James was frequently baffled by the big man leaving his feet on defense, receiving passes with his face and making some decisions that left fans scratching their heads. But after reading Brian Windhorst’s piece today, it appears that James’ dislike for Gooden goes a little deeper. In Brian’s blog regarding last night’s game, there was this blurb: Apparently this all goes deeper.
