Wow, just unbelievable. What were the chances! Game 2 of the Eastern Conference between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Detroit Pistons ended up once again, with a 79-76 win for the Pistons to give them a 2-0 lead so far. It was the exact same score as last time! This time though, Rasheed Wallace from the Pistons was on fire throughout the whole game, and especially the fourth quarter. I think the Pistons had dominated over the Cavs during their defensive part of their game. To have crawled back from the 12 point loss during the first half, they prevented the Cavs from scoring much in the 3rd and 4th quarters. The Pistons made LeBron give up six turnovers, which was very costly for the Cavs. In the second half, the Cavs only managed to score 13 points per quarter. I don't think the Cavs have adjusted to the environment of home court of the Pistons yet. But the next two games will serve as an advantage for the Cavs with home court advantage. I really hope LeBron can keep up with the pressure and play better in his next few games.

I will be looking forward to tomorrow's game. It will be quite tough for the Cleveland Cavaliers as they will be playing at the home court of the Detroit Pistons. Having lost Game 1 by 3 points only, I hope to see LeBron be much more aggressive this time around. As a matter of fact, he must play with a more aggressive attitude this time because if not, his team won't be able to win this next game. I'm also pretty sure that the Detroit Pistons are going to press the Cavs hard with their defense. Every year, the coach for the Pistons has never failed and has always trained his players to play the best defense in the NBA.

Man! I can't believe how sloppy and passive LeBron was playing!!! This picture here was the game winning three-pointer by Chauncey Billups. Look at LeBron! He did not even close out or contest against the shot! Chauncey Billups so should have been double teamed during the final minutes! He had already scored almost half of his team's points in the fourth quarter before making this last three-pointer to total just his fourth quarter score to 13 points. Boy, I can't even believe what LeBron did on their last play down the court. They had set their play up so well that LeBron could have taken his three-pointer to tie the game and let both teams go into overtime, but instead, he made a quick pass to Donyell Marshall, who's PPG (Points Per Game) this season has only been 3.8. LeBron's excuse was that Donyell Marshall had the open three-pointer to take, which he missed and set their team one game back. I don't believe LeBron though. He so could have gone through with their play and taken that last shot, but at the last fraction of a second, he changed his mind. I'm sure Donyell Marshall was shocked too at that time. He probably thought what on earth was going on and just had to throw the shot before the buzzer.
