More so then ever, the Cavaliers needed to get out to a fast start in tonight’s game. They could not start hot, nor could the finish strong, as the Kings ended the first quarter with an 11-2 run. The Sacramento starting five outscored the entire Cav’s team as four players, Marcus Thorton, Beno Udrih, Sam Dalembert, and Francisco Garica scored at least 6 a piece. Despite the Cav’s first quarter shooting percentage of 48%, that only totaled up 18 points. Going back to the Oklahoma City game, it was the first time in the last five quarters that the Cav’s failed to score 20 or more points. They were led by Ramon Sessions with 6, along with 3 rebounds.
