Preseason - game 5
Cavaliers 128, Sonics 116Quicken Loans Arena
Cleveland, OH
“It’s raining on the Sonics”Cleveland (AP) -- Crash against the Cavaliers. Led by Mo Williams, Cleveland made the break in the third quarter with 22 points by King James. Szczerbiak and Quinn had a very good impact from the bench, especially Wally World with 3/5 from downtown. And Seattle? The Sonics had their usual great offensive performances from Gibson and Barbosa, while Powe and Hunt made good job in the paint, but the problem concerns the effort that doesn’t come off the pine… if someone would have foul trouble or would suffer an injury (do you remember Martell Webster?), the backup isn’t up to the starter.
