Cavs blow out Bucks, Delonte West is relevant again


Last night, the Cavaliers looked unstoppable. In a game where LeBron James only scored 12 points, and his first field goal coming with under a minute to go in the first half, the Cavaliers bench and particularly Delonte West came to play. For myself, the 2nd Quarter of this game was the best basketball I have seen the Cavs play this year. Dunks were not in short supply, including multiple monster throwdowns from Shaquille and J.J. Hickson. But the star of this outing was Delonte West, who could not miss from the field in the second quarter. Delonte's offensive production shouldn't be a surprise to Cavs fans; The man may have emotional issues but surely can put the ball in the hole. The Cavaliers started this game down 11-0, and it looked like the Bucks may have a chance to run away with it. However, that was not the case. I remember looking at the score and seeing the Cavs climb back, while the Bucks missed 18 straight shots. We're talking a 36-6 run after the initial scoring by the Bucks, putting the Cavs up 37-17. LeBron and the rest of the Cavs bench was going insane while watching Delonte put on an offensive clinic in the second quarter. LeBron was consistently jumping out of his seat, and you could tell they were really enjoying this one. Like I said after the Mavericks game, when LeBron doesn't have to score all the points the Cavs are unstoppable, as he has proven to be a tremendous distributor adding 10 assists along with his 12 points. Do I even need to say it? LeBron James is underrated
