    Marion is not playing at the start of the 3rd. Spoon has started to rebound, and also got his first points of the game. But still Suns are pulling out a bigger lead even if Cavs made a minirun in the start of the 3rd.

    Cavs 49
    Suns 64
    6:59 3rd

    And at the end of 1st:
    Wolves 26
    Sonics 23

    ------------------
    We can reach our destination, but it's still a ways away.

    Sonics take the lead, and Cavs getting closer - perhaps we will get a reason to celebrate....

    Go Cavs. Cavs lost 1st with 13, but have won every Q since, and lead the 4th... but they need a big run - down 8 with 2:48 remaining. Cavs ball.

    btw what happened to Marion? Gugs making up for missing him with his play.

    Wolves 49
    Sonics 50
    was the halftime score in Seattle.

    Cavs 92
    Suns 100
    :50 4th Its over.... come on Cavs hit a 3....

    Well as we didnt get any help from Cavs - didnt expect it either - and do not expect to pass Suns we now have to trust that Sonics beat Wolves - Go Sonics - and I do see a good chance for us catching Wolves.

    Wolves 53
    Sonics 53

    np jammie - btw game in Portland also close...

    Half
    Maverics 41
    Blazers 43

    The game in Seattle:
    8:29 3rd
    Wolves 55
    Sonics 53

    Payton to the line for 2.

    Garnett scores - Sonics to line on next possesion. Ewing misses both - but Payton steals the ball from Wallys reb and makes a shot.

    3:31 3rd
    Wolves 68
    Sonics 64
