Heartbreak in Cleveland

Ahhhh, what a heartbreaker for Antawn Jamison and the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The team is struggling real bad to get a win these days. They have lost 25 consecutive games.
Cavaliers played a hard fought game but the Mavs played harder. Cavaliers lost within 2 points! Both teams fought for the lose ball and Dallas came up with it.

The impact LaBron James had on this team before and after his departure is noticeably visible in the "L" column. Antawn Jamison was devastated and disappointed at the lost. " We have to keep playing hard..We're playing hard unfortunately we are not coming away with a win" says Cavaliers Forward Antawn Jamison .

The Mavs brought in Peja Stojakovic to help the Mavs on defense, offensive and wherever he fits in. Peja have not played the game for a few months and arrived in Dallas not readily available. I must say I am not surprise when it comes to the Maverickss nad their trading practices.

Stojkavic started and will undoubtedly come off the bench to add relief to Tyson and Dirk as and when needed. Peja will be expected to score. The Mavericks on the other hand have won 8 straight games in a row. That's right eight straight games!. I asked Nowitzki if it is safe to say that the team plays different (losses) with him out the game versus with him in (wins). He had this to say: "


In the first quarter, Stevenson was shaking up by a defensive moved that put him on the floor against the Cavaliers and Dirk was rattled a bit on an offensive move that looked like he may have hurt his right hand.

I'm sitting high looking low and can see the teams trainer, Casey Smith, taking a look at that hand. Dirk leaves the floor headed back to the locker room to further examine his hand. No worries fans, Dirk returns to the game. Stojakovic will receive some playing time afterall.


The Cavaliers aren't the explosive team they were with LaBron James. They play decent, yet they have lost 24 games in a row!. There is a significant diffrence since King James has left.
