Bad Match-up for the Cavs, Again?


The Cleveland Cavaliers have not performed well in the first two games in the series with the Boston Celtics. Though winning game one, the Cavs have had to come from behind to win with the help of Boston's big three scoring five points in the fourth quarter. The point guard match-up is not working for Cleveland either, Mo Williams cannot keep up with Celtics guard Rajon Rondo, and when they place Parker on him, Ray Allen takes advantage of his height shooting over him, while tiring him out chasing him off screens. Shaq has no effect on the game as well, he barley plays and Perkins is doing a great job of defending the basket. Cleveland may need to think about putting big Z in the game to spread the floor and open the lane up for Lebron James, and work the pick and pop to make the Celtics defense stay true. As we seen tonight in the Celtics win the Cavs need to step their defense and play harder. If Cavs continue to play they way they are, their in for some trouble.
