Defense and Allergies Doomed Cavs
The pre-game fireworks kicked Ben Wallace’s allergies into overdrive last night, and he was forced to miss the rest of Game Two.

I think the fact LeBron is shooting 19% after the first two games is just a little bit of a bigger problem.

Superstar pant-sh!tting also involved.

As highly as I rate Lebron, I’d like to see his swagger by the end of this series. The guy is super-human, but a bit of humility would be nice to see occasionally. Though now I’ve said that, he’ll probably torch the Celtics for 40 in at least one of the games left.

We already have a thread for LeBron’s poor performance so far. Here, we should simply talk about the fact that this simply confirms just what a non-factor Ben Wallace has become in the last two seasons. Allergies from pre-game fireworks? Seriously? Damn, son, take some Benadryl and suck it up.

I couldn’t see the court at tip-off. Boston’s fireworks are a LITTLE overdone, I think. That said, Ben Wallace couldn’t play his way out of a wet paper bag anyway.

Ben Wallace sucks anyways! I’m glad he wasn’t able to play.. he’s a waste of space out on the court.. one less offensive option. I hate when Wallace and Varejo are out there at the same time.. good work Mike Brown!

Hot Pubes: Don’t you mean one more offensive option (with Little Ben out of the game)?

That being said, allergy season in Boston has been killing this week! Benadryl’s fought off the sneezing and dry eyes temporarily, but in effect also has turned me into a zombie. Switched over to 24-Hour Claritan last night, taking the advice of my homegirl in PR and the outlook if good. Maybe I’ll get through graduation tomorrow without an attack.

I agree with Jake King James’ 19% fg is a little bit more of a problem than Ben Wallace’s allergies.

lebron james’ 8.5 turnovers is the biggest problem.

too bad big ben doesn’t have his head band to shield his eyes from the smoke.

now he’s got an inner ear infection and probably won’t play in the next game
