Customers waiting hours for 23-cent pizzas in Ohio
THOMAS J. SHEERAN, May 9, 2008

Cavaliers Team Report May 9, 2008

The Cavaliers trail 0-2 in their best-of-seven series against Boston.

They just haven't been able to make shots in the Eastern Conference semifinals and are shooting 33.1 percent from the field in the first two games.

But the Cavs can take solace in the fact they trailed 0-2 in the East finals last year against Detroit before coming back and winning four in a row.

"We found a way to win Game 3 last year," James said. "Home court has been good for us this year. That's how we'll approach it."
