    Don't see Ariza getting enough love. He made Lebron miss TWENTY shots. He was amazing on D today.

    Totally agree. Ariza was a warrior out there today on defense. The guy's going to have some aches and pains tonight!

    Ariza is a keeper if we are serious about being a contender.

    The last defensive play by Ariza in the regulation would have brought tears to JVG.

    I still prefer the Clippers win above everything else. Chris Paul offends me more than racism.

    Ariza with some amazing D in winning time but I think Mchale and the other 4 players that were checking Lebron deserve some praise.

    Mchale had a couple hiccups (not playing Pablo to start the 4th and telling Harden to miss a ft) but putting TJ, Harden, Smith and Ariza in the game at the same time and switching every pick Lebron was involved in was a stroke of genius!

    TJ, Brew, Ariza, Smoove, and Harden all did great jobs guarding Lebron.

    CLE had success with Mozgov early...and then inexplicably, we basically never saw Mozgov again.

    Anyone know why this is?

    Yes...and we had about 15 chances to put the Cavs away if our bigs could have produced when Harden was doubled and made excellent passes.

    And yes....the Rockets took it from you.

    National media be like "rockets take advantage of short handed Cavs" and we over here like "did yall forget about the 6'10, 9-time All-Star monster of a center whos in a suit on our bench?"

    Because LBJ decided not to share the ball anymore. He was thinking he could do against the Rockets what he did against the Warriors. It didn't work out for him.

    absolutely agree. His defense was key today against Lebron. Someone tweeted during the game, imagine if that were Chandler Parsons trying to slow down Lebron. It would not have been very pretty.
