Thoughts on Cavs vs Pistons

• LeBron does it again - knocking off a team that has already clinched a playoff berth and is the #2 team in the East
• It's a shame we can't see LeBron James take on the Celtics
  
• The game was kind of like the Cold War:
• Slow-paced
• Uneventful
• Drawn out
  
• Not a lot of fireworks
• Both teams knew their opponent had serious firepower and feared something similar to mutually assured destruction
• Pistons seemed to want to play it slow and delay the King James offensive assault
• LeBron only took 19 shots; many of which came in the fourth quarter
• LeBron has fallen in love with the 3
• Stupid
• His drives are unstoppable and result in one of two things
• A foul
• 2 points
• But he's LeBron and can do what he wants
• I loved the Boobie's Buddies banner hanging from the rafters
  
• Kobe can pass 12 times and gets 8 assists
• LeBron has to pass 24 times to get 8 assists
• The "Holy Trinity" that is Delonte West, Anderson Varejao, and Wally Szczerbiak took a lot of terrible shots, but made enough of them to make each of them think they were superstars
• If there was a black leprechaun, he'd look like Delonte West

• The Cavs supporting cast doesn't do just that
  
• Big Z was one of the best players on the court tonight
• He had 20 points and 8 rebounds
• Did he even miss a shot in the 2nd half?
• The Cavs are a completely different team with LeBron running the point
• I still don't like Rip's mask
• 'Sheed played well in the post, but took too many 3's
• The Pistons just didn't shoot all that well
• "That's the thing - we don't have to play one style," Pistons coach Flip Saunders said after their offensive assault against the Nuggets (who don't even pretend to play defense). "We went out and played San Antonio in a grind-it-out game, and this was a little different. We're not afraid to get out and run. We had 42 assists tonight. That's a lot of assists."
• I guess they can't play "Don't waste too much energy until LeBron starts taking over"
• Especially when he didn't start his subjugation until late in the 4th
  
• Again, the rest of the Cavs are atrocious
• The Cavs website says that "Cavs Send Message with Big Win"
• Message reads: LeBron James = One Man Band
