Wally's Block in Celtics' Destruction

Early this very afternoon the Cavaliers took on the infamous Boston Celtics at the Q. The game was a complete blowout, and so rather than going through all the amazing things, the 31-9 1st quarter led by the Cavs, Lebron James' crazy dunks and fade out shots DEEP in the Q, I'm going to skip right to the ending.

The Cavaliers won it big time 107-76 with the help of everyone but Lorenzen Wright. Lebron managed 29 points and Mo hit 13 points. Gibson did his usual thing and scored 15 points... in a game that was already a blowout. I'm sure I've said this before, but Gibson usually scores when it doesn't matter that much, like when we're already blowing out the team by 20+ points. He hasn't done much anything useful for a while... since like, playoffs. Playoffs? Yeah, that's right. I'm talking about playoffs.

For whatever wicked reason, Wally didn't play until the 4th quarter. I was furious at Mike Brown, but I heard that he didn't play Wally because he wanted him to rest or something. It seriously doesn't make sense, why wouldn't you let one of your top players on the court, especially when he could still be on fire from a couple nights ago? Coaching flaw? At least we won, right?

When Wally DID come though... yeah, it was on. He only took 1 shot, a fading jumper, which he missed, but he managed to get on the board by hitting 2 free throws. His truly amazing play was the block of the night; if Austin Carr was commentating, there'd be a record player of "GET THAT WEAK STUFF OUTTA HERE!!!" or some other cheesy line (perhaps substituting "outta here" for "outta Wally's World"... who knows).

If you didn't see it, you'd better see it now. It's like, one of his best career blocks. In the end, the Cavaliers just rejected the Celtics.



Thanks for 300+ hits everyone-- don't forget to advertise so Wally's Blog gets to 1000. When it does, I'm going to release my Wally mixtape. :O

  2. Yes, he has a huge arsenal. post-up, turn around, jump shot, running jump shot, floater, turn-around, dunking, lay-up, crossover, etc.
