Make any mistake about it… The Cleveland Cavaliers are LeBron James’ team. With the perennial MVP at the helm though the Cleveland Cavaliers have finally put together a dominating cast of characters for an organization seeking their first even NBA Championship.
Running the point for this Cavaliers’ team is our sixth year guard of choice, Delonte West.
On Sunday afternoon in Detroit the Cavliers simply obliterated the Pistons with a 21 point game four victory to punch their ticket into round two of the Eastern Conference Playoffs. Led by LeBron’s 36 and supported by Mo Williams 24 point effort, the Cavaliers did everything right. From outscoring and out-rebounded to shooting better and fouling less – the Cavaliers knew a sweep was possible and simply went after it.
Delonte West played a team high 43 minutes Sunday afternoon, shooting 50% (5 for 10) from the field while adding in three rebounds, five assists, two steals and a blocked shot. He committed one turnover, allowed one of his shot attempts to be blocked and committed one personal foul in the contest.
Early Sunday morning, The Morning Journal quoted Delonte as saying “The sooner you can get it over with, the more you can rest and scout the next team”. That next team will be the winner of the series between the Atlanta Hawks and the Miami Heat. Miami leads that series, 2-1.
