Memphis Haiku

On Z-Bow, Gasol,

One slashes, and one passes,

Dam, each harasses!

I’m going to offer up a bet.  The Cavs are going to cover the 11 ½ point spread.  We covered with Miami, and their best players weren’t even being covered by our best defenders.  In Memphis, Gay will be covered by Alonzo Gee, while the paint is going to be dealt with by a very capable Anderson Varejao and his pet, Tristan Thompson.  I don’t think we will win outright, but it should be very close.  The Cavs advantage lies in the fact that Memphis shouldn’t be getting a ton of second offensive possessions when Varejao is on the floor.  Hopefully, we can limit the turnovers too, so Memphis really works to score and tires out their starters.
