Spectacular night for King james as he had 36 points to go with 12 dimes. He dominated this game late to put the Nets away. The Cavs have now won 6 straight playoff games. Cleveland out-rebounded the Nets big (49-32) once again and also forced the Nets in to 16 turnovers, with Kidd accounting for 8 himself. Gooden had a great game with 10-14. This guy has quietly had a good season, especially on the boards. Z had 13-9 and Sasha had 17. But this was king's game through and through. He took control of this game and carried the Cavs home. The game was close until very late and the Nets did well to stay in it. As always, Vinsanity took far too many jumpers and he missed a few crucial ones late. Vince had 26, but on 10/26 shots. The Nets are now hoping some home cooking will send those jumpers in. Kidd had 17-10-8 and RJ had 22 on 7/11 shooting. King also had a funny moment or two in the post-game presser as he could not say something, calling it a tongue-twister and saying it was OK because he didn't go to college. The Cavs should now at least get a split in New Jersey.
The Suns won a big one in Phoenix today.
San Antonio @ Phoenix - 81-101
New Jersey @ Cleveland - 92-102
Playoff schedule for 05/09/2007
Golden State @ Utah - Warriors will stay in this one too. The question is, can they finish?
