Really Cavs? First the Bobcats, and now Memphis? The team that plays Pau Gasol's brother Marc? Marc Gasol is comparable to the unwanted child in the family who gets no attention at the Christmas party, consistently underachieves, and can't quite navigate out of the shadow cast by the "good" brother. The often-conflustered Austin Carr even refers to him as "Paul Gasol's brother". (For what it's worth, the Bobcats beat the Carmelo and the red-hot Nuggets last night, so maybe they're not that bad)

Last night in Memphis, the Cavaliers lost an overtime thriller despite season highs for LeBron's in both points (43) and rebounds (13). Rudy Gay played well in the 2nd half, after an abysmal performance in the first half. The Cavs owned a 16 point lead in the 2nd quarter, but the Grizzlies soon turned it around after haltime showing great poise and a willingness to drive the ball against the Cavs. They went on a 14-5 run in the 3rd quarter and cut the lead to 78-76. You may look at LeBron's stat line and say, "What were the rest of the Cavs doing?" But even though LeBron had 43 points, he made only 6 of his final 20 shots.. (not good). LeBron did help the Cavs get to OT with a layup that made it 100-98 Cavs, but Rudy Gay responded with a drive of his own, then forced LeBron to miss a difficult turn-around shot at the end of regulation. In overtime, OJ Mayo hit a clutch three, and then former O-State guard Mike Conley put the Grizzlies up 2. LeBron missed the final 3-point shot he took with 3 seconds remaining on the clock. Regarding the decision to jack up a 3-pointer instead of attempt to quick-drive, LeBron said this.. "With three seconds left in the game, that was pretty much the best shot I could take." Really? I'm not sure I agree with that one, but what LeBron says goes. LeBron James is underrated
