To those who saw the game, did you notice how much FASTER LeBron appears than everyone else on the court? His speed is sick. Most guys run quick without the ball but slow up a little bit while dribbling. LeBron almost looks faster while dribbling the ball, a complete reverse of how it's like for most people.
I remember the young Grant Hill (before the injuries) and how with 3-4 big strides, he was already half-way down the court. He would attack people and if you were a defensive player hanging back, waiting to meet him, you were in dread because you knew with his speed and aggressiveness, that he'd go right through you. Tonight LeBron did the same thing. The old Hill, Jason Kidd and LeBron really ram that ball down your throat.
Some trolls on another site were saying "LeBron is getting lay ups" and I was about to respond but I didn't. They were saying he's getting free shots. I don't agree. His burts are what gets him free. Most other players would have had contested shots in those instances but James has another gear.

It's all about his Strength + Speed.. Nobody was going to stop him on most of those drives.
Way to Ball, young Man !!

Wow!!! I was at uni doing an assignment and I was following the livescore. I closed the window when it was 93-84(i think) to NJ thinking that NJ had the win in the bag
I then reopened the livescore a few minutes later to see the Cavs in the lead
It sounds like King James was pretty clutch out there tonight, this was a big win for the Cavs and the losing streak is over

Kevin Ollie in a brilliant performance scored 0 points and had 4 turnovers in 14 minutes.

I don't know how you can hate a guy like Kevin Ollie. He generally goes out and gives you the same thing he's been giving his whole career, which is generally smart heady veteran play.
I know now that the Cavs have Mcginnis he seems superflous, but if the Cavs didn't have him it would just be Lebron at point guard to start the season, and just Lebron right now with Mcginnis out.
He's never going to win a game for you, but he is a pretty useful player usually.

I dont hate ollie, I just think its lame he is signed for 5 years! A two year deal would have been great and I think he would have gone for that seeing as how he bounced around the league till someone finally signed him. I like his defense that he usually plays but i cringe when he looks to score other then the jumpshot he sometimes takes in rhythm from an outlet pass.

The length of the deal is why the Cavs were able to get him. Ollie has been bouncing around, he wants to be able to settle down a little bit, raise a family all of that.
I guess I just want to see it work out for him. I don't think he really hurts the Cavs in general. It's hard to get a player like him really. A guy who is going to accept a role and shut up and do what he's told.
