Re: Round 2 Game 5 - 7pm Mon May 17 Clev at Det

We are spoiled. Living here in land for the past 26 years, I saw the laker fans go through the same arrogance in 2004 : "NOBODY can beat us, we will roll over the Pistons". Now we are in the same mode: How can the CAVS beat us"?

Some of us were concerned earlier in the year that we lacked the killer instinct after February, but others said don't worry about it. The team was so full of it self, and some us us too, that they didn't give any team any respect. Sheed and CB have lead charge on arrogance. They don't respect the refs either and complain/biotch and moan about every call and that's every starter. At least Dice and Hunter laugh it off.

Although we have held the Cavs to under 90 points the last 3 games, was it is not really our defense? No these guys have no offense other then king James who knows how to get to the rim without difficulty and can find the open man when he is double teamed.

Or offense is stagnant because our starters are worn out & our bench is not trusted because they didn't get enough run time this year. We spent so much time on the perimeter during the year, no one knows how to attack the paint. Now the last couple of games thay gone awy from the 3 ball because they are playing in panic mode. 35+ TO's in two games is probably a big factor too.

We all have hope that they can some how did deep down in their pride tomorrow night sand pull it out like they did in 2004 with the Nets and last year games 6 vs the Heat and Spurs.
