Fish is a clever man. I like it.

He is also willing to do whatever to win. Do you think Woody would have played Wear in this game? We were pissed woody would not play Copeland when he was obviously a good player for us that year.

No way would Woodson play Wear

He would also play Felton over Larkin and Prigioni!

and JR would've shucked 30 shots in this game

Melo would've been gassed in the 4th

For sure. Copeland would have had 15 points tonight.

Score 1 for culture change. I'm down for it.

Great ball movement created by Larkin ! Melo and amare played there part too... Congrats on the first w for fish.. Acy, cole, wear are great energy players... Wear played great d on lbj!

yea as bad as we was last night i was impressed by Larkin defensively early in the game

Yes but you can't overlook the execution of spacing and ball movement. You have to have both in order to create open shots for guys like Jason who don't create their own shots.

Fish isn't afraid to play his bench even after the blowout loss. He still played Wear when most would not. Jason looked bad in game one and he came back to him. Cole got good minutes. It is a very strong coaching job by Fish.

That only makes it a fair fight cuz we are struggling and missing players. DON'T PISS ON A CLEN WIN!

I agree but no excuses, we had every reason to roll over too

I'm happy to see Fisher find out what guys wanted to play tonight

The signs and bad tendencies are there still

But Fish lessened their negative impacts by staggering

The risks against the buffers of joy

He needs to repeat this for the remaining 80gms

Regardless of outcome

That's my prediction and if you don't like it you can...

Funny :-)

I was just gonna start a thread picking the cavs tonight. Dunno why but I feel it in the air.

Yellow, nice call, EH?

agreed great win. is cole or smith taking over for sammy at the center spot for the game on sunday? i'd really like to see cole in the starting line up. he's such a great rebounder. Larkin really played great tonight,Acy is a nice hustle player as well as wear... hope they are a staple in our rotation

We won because your boy THJ played only 5 minutes

I do agree about Cole though ... I think that he changes the game when he came in. I hope people realize how important that was.

Last night was a bad loss. You were pretty prolific in your criticism of every aspect of the team. I personally prefer over reactions to great wins. 80 games to go. Perspective is important.

Huh? I'm not insulting them. Its just teasing. I already said in bright lights that I was happy for them. I don't begrudge anyone their joy in victory.

And last night was abysmal. Tonight was not. I criticized then. I praised numerous things now. That's balanced on a per game basis even if I continue hold a deep ambivalence about the long-term scenario.

Good win. Plain english.

You are just a good fan. We are emotional.

media is reporting the cavs beat themselves

That's to be expected but 30 assists don't lie. Also the Knicks were digging in on D and that's part if why the CAVS folded.
