Cavs thoughts 4/21/2010

You wish the Cavs would have blown out the Bulls in the first 2 games of the playoffs, similar to what they did last year with their 2 1st round opponents, Detroit and Atlanta. But the Cavs haven’t done much of that this season, with all the injuries they’ve had and the getting use to each other issues, they were few blow outs unlike last year on their way to 66 wins. You can make what you want of it, but it sure makes some fans uneasy.

I like how Joakim Noah plays, I like that he tells how he feels, I don’t like that he said those things about Cleveland, where I grew up. Having said that, I think he’s a really good player and openly rooted for him last year against the Celtics, and I hope Shaq woops his butt in Chicago.

Will the real Mo Williams show up? Mo, the reason you were so successful down the stretch of the regular season this year is that you penetrated and didn’t settle for the 3 pt shot. You gotta continue to be aggressive and get to the hole or pass it off, don’t settle!

I know it’s hard to find minutes for JJ Hickson, but I think you gotta put him out there sometimes. Let him get experience, the Cavs may need him in the later rounds. Especially with when Noah is on the bench, Hickson is so much much better athletically then anyone on the Bulls bench.

I’m happy for Jamario Moon. He was effective off the bench all year in spot duty, and came through again in Game 2 against the Bulls. He’s an X- factor, can shut down opponents and make the open 3. I know that Mike Brown has a thing for Jawad Williams because of his size and toughness, but Jamario just makes more if an impact.

And how about James Johnson trying to irritate Lebron? Come on man!

Until next time.
