Heartbreaker to the Jazz

The Cavs need everything right, except defend in the final seconds last night against the Jazz.  The Cavs came up on the losing end of a tight game, 103-101.  The Cav’s main man, Lebron James had a triple-double.  His 11th in his young career.

James scored 32 points, 15 rebounds and 12 assists. He also had 3 steals and 2 blocked shots.  Can’t ask for more than that.  A win would be nice, but James can’t do it all.  Overall, it was a great game, except, of course the final 5 seconds. What hurt the Cavs was playing catch up most of the game.  Their tanks were empty.  They fell apart in the final 5 seconds.  James hit a 3 pointer tying the game. But the Cavs let Deron Williams get the inbound pass and go coast-to-coast with a game winning layup.  A LAYUP.  With 1.3 seconds left.  Williams should have ever been able to get that close.  The defense should have forced him to pass or take a long shot.  But a layup?

Well, the Cavs are off today.  Next up are the Kings, Fri. night.
