Times they are a changin'. I have not seen a cavaliers game in some time and had no idea how much smoke and lights are incorporated into the NBA games these days. There were courtside MC's, breakdancers, loud music, fireworks, and all sorts of hype. My friend Travis summed it up perfectly with his comment, "these games are geared towards kids with ADD." Every time the players left the floor there was all sorts of action going on.
The cavs loooked really good at points. Lebron was mediocre (by king James standards) and Larry Hughes looked like an all-star. The game came down to the wire with the cavs pulling it out by 3 points thanks to a big shot by King James, a couple free throws by the "wild thing," and a couple of big defensive stops. All in all the cavs looked like it was game #1 as they had some breadowns on both sides of the floor. They're free throw shooting was pitiful. 50% for the game and they were lucky to pull the win out with Varejao splitting 2 pairs of free throws down the stretch. Damon Jones shot 2 of 10 from the floor and has to be traded or needs to quit shooting. Or better yet, he needs to shoot the ball like he did before he came to Cleveland.
In more important news, how about the city of New York considering legislation that would limit resteraunts in the amount of oil they use that contains trans-fats. The topic will be discussed on Science Friday tomorrow on NPR. Kentucky Fried Chicken, Chilli's, Wendy's, and Ruby Tuesday's has already vowed to make the switch in their chain's nationwide. The entire country of Denmark has banned the oil. This is a pretty exciting move towards a healthier society and makes it painfully obvious that we should all think about the food we eat. Now, if we could just ban GMO's.
