Steeler hate is strong in young Skywalker

Strong within you The Force is….

Frye dislikes the Steelers so much that he joked in preseason that he deleted the number of good friend and fellow former MAC quarterback Ben Roethlisberger from his cell phone. “I haven’t talked to him pretty much all year,” said Frye. “He’s a Steeler and I’m a Brown. There’s no love lost between us.” Frye said he will cross enemy lines and talk to Roethlisberger before Sunday night’s game. “We go back a long way,” said Frye. “We grew up around the same area and played in the same conference.”

How great a story would it be if Frye came into this game and won it?

Where the hell is Verejao gonna play?

I love Anderson Verajao. Love ‘im. But when he comes back from injury, can someone please tell me where he’s going to fit into this team? Donyell Marshall and Luke Jackson seem to have taken up the slack admirably, and it’s really gonna be hard for Verejao to get onto the floor with those guys playing like they’re playing.

Scary Cavs win scarily

How scary? How about Lebron James plays only 26 minutes, scores only 16 points, and the Cavs win by 19 points over the Grizzlies at home. Wow.

Folks, that was another clinical dismantling of a team, except this was a good team that got dismantled. They sniffed that the Grizzlies were tired, had just lost a tough one in Boston, and they pounced. Larry Hughes is starting to show up as the Hughes we thought we signed. And can enough ever be said about Donyell Marshall? 25 minutes, 12 points, 6 rebounds, off the bench.

Yard stick for the Cavs vs. Memphis

This is a crucial test, and will reveal a lot about the Cavs. When the Grizzlies beat them last week, they looked flat, played average to terrible defense, and despite leading by as much as 9 points in the 3rd quarter, they lost convincingly. If the Cavs can turn that around and unveil that machine-like dominance which was featured in all 3 of their victories, that will be a very good sign.
