Watching the game tonight
with my best friend/cavs fan. Any creative taunts you can share with me would be appreciated. I like the fact that this is Lebron’s seventh year, and he still hasn’t won squat. That makes him mad and worried that Lebron will leave.

in truth i don't really think JeBron Lames is going to leave cleveland
but it is fun to see the defensiveness and panic the suggestion elicits from cavs fans.

Right now
I think there’s just as much of a chance that Lebron stays in Cleveland as there is of him leaving. In the end though, I don’t think about it too much. If he does sign somewhere else, I’ll simply hate that team as much as Cleveland.

Hypothetical question
If Lebron signs with another team next summer, are the Wiz and Cavs still rivals?

Well I need to get some sleep in Warsaw...
but I am thinking good thoughts… and I DO get the Suns game live Sunday, which is something to endure the work week for.
The way to win tonight is to run their big suckers into the ground, just keep sending waves of fresh bodies at ’em… Plus use our backcourt depth and, yes, size to maximum advantage…. let the crab king get his triple double but stymie the rest of them.

Yeah – at least with Varejao and Ben Wallace last year, they were quick enough to guard the PnR, and they were quick cutters on Offense too…. If Ilgauskas was having trouble, they could adjust… Now, they’ve got problems.

Because he’s running around guarding Caron, he’s not cutting as hard. Even the move before, where he hit that turnaround, was slow.

Cavs broadcast had a poll
“Which Wizards player do you dislike the most?”
The choices were Arenas, Haywood, and Stevenson
Early results had Stevenson with 70%, Arenas with 20%, and Haywood with 8%
No I don’t know what happened to the other 2%

Going after the ball like that let him know that his size doesn’t get him a pass in this league any more. You can let Shaq try to back his way into the lane simply because he’s 400 pounds. The other two… well, Dray needs to calm down.

if i was a ref in this game..
i would stop the game, grab a mike, assemble both teams at half court and say that all complaints from here on out should be directed to me in email format…just click send…any verbal discussion concerning calls after a foul will result in techs….p.s. that was a terrible charge call on blatche
by stlballa on Nov 3, 2009 9:20 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
The hardest part...
Is that the wizards played this in typical wizards fashion. I dont mind losing… but having a large lead and letting it go. Forcing up shots… getting away from what created the large lead. Making a last second run to pull it to 5 then losing.
We need to get away from this formula.

shaq was the difference because the Referees called early fouls on Haywood, forcing him to the bench… then proceeded to call 4 fouls on the backup (McGee) to get HIM on the bench….

But our inability to get to the line, coupled with our propensity to foul, it really hurting us now.

i think
it was lot to do with the refs…but everything happens in stages, we played well early, hopefully next time we can continue that play longer and with more consistency….this is going to make me hate shaq and cleveland fans have no class (i.e. buckantz comments about when stevenson was dumped by shaq, and if they had a vote on who the wiz fans disliked the most on the cavs, i would vote a million times for varejao and 999,999 for the auto insurance attorney James, kirk, and siaonz.

Highly disappointing...
I’ve really always wondered why referees are protected by the league in an impenetrable shell. Ever since the Donaghy scandal we were promised more information regarding the referees and how they’re trained and scored. It really calls into question the fairness of the league and Stern’s interest in the league’s brand. Now, I understand the game is tough to call and call correctly, but when you favor some players over others… it makes for a lame product.
That being said, the Wizards got away from everything they did right in the first quarter. DEFENSE. CONTESTING shots. They weren’t spectacular on offense, but they played a hell of a game on D. Towards the end of the game Gilbert just broke plays and called his number way too much. He, and I’m calling out him personally, needs to get Miller into the game so that if the defense sags to him, he’s got a knock down shooter ready to spot up. Frustrating and I sure as hell do not want to be in the locker room right now getting an earful from Flip.
