Cavaliers smash record!

Now that I have your attention,the record that was broken was a bad one as the Cleveland Cavaliers took it on the chin for their worst home loss in history in a 114-75 loss to the Chicago Bulls and what makes this worse was that Derrick Rose missed the game for the Bulls!
As Warner Wolf used to say-"If you had 38 points and took the under-you lose!".
Anderson Varejao "led" Cleveland as one of only two players with double digit points with 14.
Cleveland travels to Atlanta tonight at seven...

Swashbucklings

1) I wish I had a good thing to write about,but honestly I have none.
The Chicago Bulls are a far far better team than the Cavaliers,but 39 points? at home?
Embarrassing.

2) How do you get embarrassed like this?Well shoot 30 percent from the floor to start.
That came after a a late game bucket or two to raise that percentage.

3) Antwan Jamison 1 of 10 from the floor.
Everyone is entitled to a bad game,but 4 points in a team high 30 minutes of floor time?
That is not just bad,it's rotten!

4) This game was so bad that Luke Harangody and Ryan Hollins got to play!!!

5) Brutalized on the boards? Oh yeah as the Bulls had a 54-38 margin and it seemed far more than that.
I know Chicago is a good board banging team,but the Cavaliers were not just outmuscled,they were outhustled.
Byron Scott has to be very displeased about that.
I am looking forward to seeing how the team bounces back from this in Atlanta tonight against a strong team on the road...
