News and Notes
May 9 Ilgauskas was the Cavaliers' only effective offensive player for the second straight game on Thursday, scoring 19 points on 8-for-12 shooting in Cleveland's 89-73 loss to Boston in Game 2 of their Eastern Conference semifinal series.

Advice: Ilgauskas is averaging 20.5 points and 8.5 rebounds in the first two games of the series, but it's become evident that Cleveland needs to get its 7-foot-3 center more shots with LeBron James struggling and no one else stepping up.
