San Antonio Spurs vs Cleveland Cavaliers - The Game Thread

By Wayne Vore (ATS)

It's going to take a lot of negativity to get us over the hump tonight. I'll do my share. What will you do?

Breakdown

  • Point Guard - Mo Williams is an all-star baby. An all-star. Tony will be tired.
  • Off Guard - Delonte West shoots 43% from downtown. Roger is, um, not so good any more. So I hear, at least.
  • Center - The Big Z is going to give Kurt fits.
  • Power Forward - I like Bonner's chances against Wallace if he is playing on the leg he broke last night. Not so much against the energetic Argentine.
  • Small Forward - FinDog has been on fire and I think he'll dominate this matchup.
  • Bench - We are starting to look thin on the bench.
  • Coach - Mike Brown has all those smart-looking glasses. Pop has a beard.
  • Intangibles - They'll be plenty hungry after their showing in Houston last night and I think our guys might be quick to lay down and call a 2-1 record without Tim a moral victory.
  • Mojo - We are champions. They are from Cleveland.
  • Winner - Don't like our chances, to be honest.

Keys To The Game

  • Tony - Can Cleveland contain him at all? If he continues to roll, who knows.
  • FinMasonBruceIme - I imagine they'll all get a crack at defending Bron-Bron. Will any of them be effective?
  • Turnovers - We can't afford to turn the ball over in the open court, meaning none thrown out of bounds-traveling-double dribble turnovers.
