Live Thread: Cavs vs. Wizards

So tonight the Cavaliers host another bottom dweller of the Eastern Conference in the Washington Wizards.  Hopefully all of the “end of a road trip voodoo magic” that infected the last game will be long gone.  I don’t know how much I believe of any of those types of excuses but I want to believe the odd mix of brain-dead officiating and bouts of brain-dead play from the Cavs will be absent tonight.

In a bit of optimism, Washington does have two guards in Ish Smith and Isaiah Thomas that actually make Cleveland’s backcourt look comparatively tall, so there is that.  Also defensive anchor John Henson should be back in the lineup tonight.

Not to be overly optimistic in the wake of many bad losses, I still predict the Cavs managed to pull this one out in a high scoring, high turnover, shootout.

Cavs 139 – Wiz 134

As always,

Go Cavs!
