Best win of the year so far. The Cs dominated the paint with Powe/Perkins/Davis all game long. Our three bigs are the big reason we won this game. Powe in particular was awesome in the second half.
Paul Pierce brought a great all around game. He hit his shots after a cold start, distributed well for 9 assists, and played solid D all night on LeBron. He clocked 45 minutes which is too many, but I'll forgive Doc for it tonight. This game was big.
Ray came back and was great in the second half after being stymied by the traps of the Cavs. As a matter of fact both Pierce and Allen did a wonderful job of punishing the Cavs for their traps and doubles.
Only reason it was even close was the FT disparity. Drove me nuts that the Cs were the more aggressive team but couldn't get to the line nearly as much. Great win, great game. Statement win with KG out.
Tough to divide the votes up, I want to give each of Powe/Davis/Perk 2 but that would leave Pierce and Allen out. One for each with the extra being tossed to Pierce. Playing D on LeBron for 38 minutes is worth an extra vote
.
Paul- 2
Ray - 1
BBD - 1
