I agree. Snow had 2 very heady plays on Manu were he simply just ripped the ball away from him and Snow even did his old veteran tricks (his cheap trick of dribbling, stopping in front of a guy and drawing a foul). It was like Eric was playing at the level he was earlier in the season. Too bad he wasn't on the ball during the final moments. Unlike Jeff, I doubt Eric would have fallen or been knocked out of the play (if Snow would have fallen, he'd get up instead of argue with the refs like some people -_-).

For much of this season, Jeff makes a mistake and Z tries to play clean up. Either this leads to Z picking up fouls at alarming rates or people getting open shots. It's a hopeless theme that continues to repeat itself for the Cavaliers this season.

His lineups and in-game adjustments leave ALOT to be desired. That last play wouldn't have been an issue if Lebron hadn't been so off tonight though, so I wouldn't put the full blame on him.

Bron has even an average game for his standards and I think we take this game.

I especially agree with the last paragraph. Z picks up at least 2 or 3 fouls a game covering for PG penetration against Jeff. I don't even think Parker took a jumpshot tonight, it was pure blowing by Jmac for layups all night which kills your defense. The more the season goes on, the more it becomes evident our real problem is at the PG spot.

Also another thing that irks me about our defense is Lebron's laziness of not challenging shots. He does a good job closing out but never puts his hands up. 90% of the time he will race down the court looking to get a fastbreak as soon as a shot goes up instead. Bowen knocked in 2 open looks that killed us and those shots are much tougher with a hand in the face.

Re: San Antonio at Cleveland (2/28/05)

Lebron's also got to improve the free throw shooting. His two misses in the last three mintus really hurt us. Hopefully it's just the flu and ankle just bothering him. He hasn't played at the same high level he was at before the ankle injury.

JMac is still sorry the guy needs to go. I agree PG has become an even bigger issue then SG. Too bad we can't combine McInnis and Snow
