POSTGAME: Mavs 74 at Cavs 102

AUTHOR: Blog Z | IN: Cavs, Gameday | COMMENTS: 1 Comment

After a very slow start from the Cavaliers, they came on strong to blow out the Mavericks, 102-74. The Cavs came out slow by shooting poorly and playing soft defense. Mo Williams went 0-for-8 and Lebron James was almost non-existent in the first quarter. After the poorly planned team introduction (Shaq might be right about this intro) where the team was acting like the were playing baseball. The team then got dominated by the Mavs in the first quarter, trailing 30-20. Where at one point the Mavs had a 15 point lead and Erick Dampier was looking like an all-star. [...]

Lebron James on the foul by Jason Collins:
“Did he go for the ball? No. Was he trying to get in position to take a charge? No,” said James, who had 25 points and 12 rebounds. “It had nothing to do with a basketball play. It was borderline dirty.”
Jason Collins on the foul:
“When you see LeBron James going to the basket, you have three options,” Collins said. “No. 1: Wrap him up. No. 2: Try to take the charge. No. 3: Try to block his shot and a lot of players fail trying to do that one. I chose option one.

New Jersey coach Lawrence Frank, whose Nets lost to the Cavaliers in the 2007 playoffs and twice this week, has seen the improvements in James and his team.
“Not only is he getting better, they’ve surrounded him with shooting,” Frank said. “You think about Cleveland’s model, they’ve done a great job. They have a great, great player, they’ve surrounded him with 3-point shooting and size.”

Not only is Lebron James the greatest player in the game right now (sorry Kobe fans), but he is mentoring some younger players in the game. Davidson’s Stephen Curry has been receiving some advice from his friend and mentor about declaring for the NBA Draft.
Davidson College star Stephen Curry is expected to decide this weekend whether or not to declare for the NBA draft. James, who is close with Curry and attended a Davidson game earlier this season in Charlotte, N.C., said he’d be glad to offer advice if Curry asks. James stopped short of making a public recommendation, but [...]
