Video Correspondent: The Enemy You Know

by Jake Whitacre on Apr 19, 2007 10:41 AM EDT

Witness this...

As you all know, we're now slated to face off against the Cavaliers in the first round for the second year in a row. Normally this is where I'd delve right into the videos, but for this edition I did a few more than normal so I'm putting in the Read More link so that this post doesn't entirely clog up the front page. So click on the link, and learn everything you some things that you didn't know about our first round opponent.

Of course, when you talk about the Cavs, you have to start off with LeBron James. James is known as one of the best in-game dunkers in the league...most of the time.

Larry Hughes doesn't have same pedigree for the thunderous dunk that 'Bron does. Then again, that could have something to do with this:

Scott Pollard has been known more for his hair than his 1 point per game average, but sometimes he can get attention other ways:

Of course we can't forget about Zydrunas Ilgauskas, and I know when you think of Z you think of highlight reels so here are some of Z's best plays:

Eric Snow, on the other hand, is just glad the Cavs aren't playing the Heat:

Meanwhile, Drew Gooden is just hoping someone will let him out of his box:

So those are the Cavaliers in a nutshell. If you still have any lingering doubts about the Wizards free throw %, take solace in that it could be worse.

The Z one is hillareous

My guess is that those are the only plays he ever made that were not 15-foot jumpers or hook shots.

You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.

Pretty much

And how much would you pay to see celebrity boxing between Z and Greg Ostertag? I think that will replace Barkley v. Bavetta next year.

No siento mi cara.

lol

Jake--mad props man. You got major YouTube mixtape skills.

Larry Hughes...smh...that same goofy look he has whenever he f***s up bad.
IMO, it's too bad AI crossing up AD twice is just a bit more embarrassing--Snow toppling over feebly looked way funnier though.
LeBron: wow.

I'd love to comment on that crossover

But I know that in my mind that never happened, so sadly I can't. :D

At least Daniels, while he fell down, stayed within the same zip code. Meanwhile, if the floor crew in Miami waxed the floor before the game, Snow might still be sliding around that floor.

Oh, and in an additional note on the Z mixtape, it kind of shows how badly Cleveland needs a sports title if they're going and making highlight reels of him.

Finally, I'd just like to mention I finally realized Correspondent doesn't have an "a" anywhere in it, so I'll stop spelling it that way.

No siento mi cara.
