(I remember making the first major thread petitioning for Swaggaliers on this board)

Anyway, there's plus and minuses to playing the Wizards and the Hawks. The Wizards are playing very good defensive ball with very deep guard play, and specifically point guard play, while the Cavs have a PG who has tendonitis and a strained ankle or something

The Hawks are on average, not really that good, but they're very hot at moments and are still a deep team (and are healthy unlike the deepness of the Bulls). Korver is one dimensional enough where maybe Smith/Shumpert can give assist to Kyrie vs Teague. If necessary

Imo they'd beat Wizs in 6 and Hawks in 4 maybe 5

Don't really care. Neither have a Jimmy Butler type defender for Lebron so :yeshrug:
Early Thursday morning, DeMarre Carroll, Atlanta's defensive stopper, was asked how to slow down LeBron James. He spoke of making him work hard on both ends and trying to tire him out. He also talked about needing a team effort.

Mission accomplished.

Carroll held James to 1-of-7 as the primary defender Friday night, but Kent Bazemore and others took turns helping out. They trapped James and created a wall in the paint, forcing him toward the sidelines. It was as good a defensive effort by any team against James all year. He never looked comfortable, finishing with 18 points on 5-of-13 shooting, including 1-of-4 from three-point range. He also finished with nine turnovers.
