Third Quarter

Charlotte 67
Cleveland 63

Really? Wow. Cleveland scores the first 9 points of the quarter and gets the lead under 10, they slowly work the lead down the rest of the way, getting it as close as 3 and only trailling by 4 now. That was a 27-14 3rd quarter. Padgett 24, Mayo 24, no one else more than 5. Swanson is 2-8, Felton is 2-9. Gordon still leads leveland with 18, Garrison 15, but Lebron did wake up a little and he now has 14 points/6 boards/5 assists. We are shooting 45% on the game, Cleveland 40%.

Fourth Quarter

We open the quarter with Swanson/Henderson/Wallace/Padgett/Sparks

8:50 to go - Cleveland scored first but then we rattle off 10 straight, its 77-65. Mayo and Lebron are both still sitting.

7:40 to go - 4 straight for Cleveland and I take a timeout to get some rest for the bigs. Felton/Mayo/Henderson/Fisher/Chandler on the floor now. Lebron came back in after a foul about a minute ago. 77-69.

6:00 to go - James has the last 4 for Cleveland, Mayo the last 4 for Charlotte, its 83-73.

5:00 to go - Starters back in for both teams, and we've pretty much ended it,Mayo a 3, Padgett a hook shot, 88-73.

We do indeed coast from there!
