West is out. How important is this?

[SportsLockPicks]

did they scratch him before or after the line was released?

I don't know. Someone posted in my thread that Cavs were not a good play because he was out. I don't know that much about it other than that.

i would say they need a few games to get used to it, but should be fine...don't be suprised at that first home loss tonight vs. Paul and co.

Not that important at all. They have a better backup Daniel Gibson and he can shoot a little better.

I disagree. West is important. The Cavs are having a lot of injuries lately and the King played like shit last night.

West is one of their starters and I believe he has a definite impact on the team. With that said, I played the Cavs at -3 because I do not believe he is someone that can't be replaced. This was known yesterday already that he wouldn't play when he was injured during the Chicago game. From what I understand everyone is having confidence in the well rested Western Conference Hornets vs the last night's over time losing Cavs who would be tired.

gibson, thats a laugh. cavs need need guards that can give LJ the ball so the play wouldnt be to predictable and not to burden LJ too much, needless energy bringing down the ball. now they are left with mo williams who is a scorer and LJ with a suspected symptoms of flu.

they are withour Z, minus a scorer inside, coz he has a sweet touch, now minus west their point.

Cavs lost before to NOH without their center chandler and peja. LJ got block last night by thomas. NOH defense is tighter than the bulls.

Definitely putting my money on NOH.

All Gibson can do is shoot 3's, he will have multi turnovers. West is underated because he doesnt look to score as much, good ball handler and passer. Plus he shoots like 47% this year.

I think the more important issue at hand here is wheter or not King James will be healthy for tonights game. If he isnt, he will have another poor performance like he did last night.

Just like I said Curious no West no problem and you let these guys talk you off your Cleveland pick and that game was the only game that was over when it started. Anyway keep the winners coming.

You know I NEVER pay attention to injuries, who isn't playing, blah blah blah because I figure the lines makers know more about that crap than I ever will.

The one time I pay attention to that nonsense I back off a rocking chair winner.

Never again.
