Ben Gordon looks pretty good, he certainly doesn't look lost like early in the season.

For some reason this result doesn't suprise me. I kind of thought the Cavs might take the Bulls lightly, and the Bulls are one of those young teams that will all of a sudden get up for game here or there and beat down a team you didn't think they should of. Which only makes being a fan of them more frustrating.

The Cavs got rolled and have a few days before having to play the Spurs. So there's no time to feel sorry for themselves.

This could be ugly next game if the Cavs come out like this. Spurs are going to be pissed after losing to the Sonics for the second time this year

Cavs need to forget about this one. I could sense early on that we just didn't bring the energy and the Bulls were eating us alive. When you lose by 30...that's effort.
And it's pretty sad that we can't function at all unless Lebron has 25 7 7 type games every damn night. Someone has to step up and pick up the slack when he is off.

Really, 3 games of "low 40 percent" eh?
Lebrons shooting in the last 5 games:
5-15 = 33%
11-22 = 50%
10-17 = 59%
8-17 = 47%
6-19 = 32%
You consider 47% low 40 percent? Haters crack me up.

I was thinking going into the last game that Deng should be guarding Lebron more, but for some reason they tried to play Nocioni on him. I'm glad Deng guarded him more this game, because he has the length to bother Lebron, who hasn't developed his jumper fully yet. Deng can use his length and play off him a bit. Theres not a lot of people who can guard Lebron successfully, but I think Deng does it pretty damn well.
I'll keep saying it, the Bulls are slept on. They play in the east, and have played a harder schedule than any team in the league. Their schedule in 2005, after the next couple weeks, is really easy.

I would say there is nobody who can guard Lebron successfully. Lebron's in that class of player that no one player can stop. Going into this game we didn't think we had anyone who could possibly stop Lebron. We showed up hungry, and the Cavs didn't. I'd try not to get too up from this victory, because you know the other shoe is going to drop. We're too poorly coached, have too much of a losing culture, and our players are too inexperienced.
Shaq_Diesel...  Yeah, Nevus should probably get rid of this game thread.

Come on - the Cavs were off tonight, everbody. Not making any excuses although it was the second game of a road back to back and the Bulls played up to their talent level for once. But if you actually watched the first Cavs-Bulls game you would have seen that Deng didn't give 'Bron any trouble. When Deng was in he was guarding 'Bron that first game almost exclusively and Nocioni had him when Deng was out.
Bulls won and rightfully so because they actually put some effort on to the court. Just don't think I would start making comments that Deng is some sort "Lebron-stopper" quite yet

Exactly. Not to mention it's not like Deng was shutting him down 1 on 1, everytime Lebron drove the ball there were 3 or 4 people all over him. Teams stack up on him and make him give up the ball, it's been that way ever since his hot start.
