Now on TruFan: Cavalier Hangover

With our new relationship with trufan.com, John and I will be posting a few blogs per week on that site. Here's a preview of my blog from today.

After the Celtics dismantle a team, I love to read their fan blogs and newspapers. I want to see if there's any sour grapes, excuse-making and/or respect paid to the Cs.

Here's what I found today after the Celtics 95-89 win in Cleveland.

Cavs HQ

This game was decided in the three minutes that LeBron James sat at the
start of the second quarter.  The Cavs were -6 in that stretch.  LeBron
had to play 45 minutes tonight, the first of a stretch of four games in
five nights, because the bench was atrocious and Mike Brown had no
answers.


Then again, when the reserves are this bad, I'm not sure how much
[Mike] Brown can do. I'm tired of the Cavalier bench jumping around and
pounding their chests, while playing with zero pride when they are
matched up against elite competition. [Daniel] Gibson, [Jamario] Moon
and [J.J.] Hickson looked just bad as any second unit the Cavaliers
used last season.

Not sure I agree with the first paragraph. The game was decided in the 3rd quarter when the Celtics starters pulled away, and the reserves held down the fort. I love the criticism of the Cavs all-talk, no-walk bench.

Please give it a "thumbs up." We need to show them how loyal and dominant Red's Army can be.
