ESPN’s national game of the night is the Denver-Cleveland showdown in Colorado, and everyone on both teams is doing their best to make it seem like it’s not all about LeBron and Melo.
“The marquee guy is going to get the majority of the accolades and the majority of the press coverage,” Cavaliers guard Damon Jones said after practice Tuesday at the University of Denver. “Because of it, some guys get overlooked for some special things that they do, but that’s the nature of athletics. If you’re in it for the publicity, you’re in it for the wrong reason.”
This is Damon Jones, who is so acutely aware of the exact number of people looking at him at any moment, he…y’know what? Forget it. If the Cavs don’t win tonight, we’re jumping off a bridge.
Not a high bridge, don’t worry. It’ll be a low to mid-sized bridge. The type that might leave us with a sprained ankle, or like a really mean looking cut on our forearm. We don’t want to seriously hurt ourselves, we just want to look tough to impress this girl. To be honest, this whole thing has nothing to do with the game at all. We just want to be tougher. We want people to look at us and be like “hey, look at that tough guy. He sure is tough looking.”
Alas, we’ve said to much. You see our inner pain. Terry Pluto says STOP SHOOTING SO MANY STUPID THREES.

Couple of predictions for tonight’s game:
Your intense hatred of Damon Jones (aka Amon Ones) will grow stronger.
Luke will get extended minutes, thus causing his head to explode in excitement.
Andy will finally be on the court for longer than 30 seconds before getting a “respite.”
LeBron will be awesome; the defense will be solid, keeping the Cavaliers (struggling offensively) in the game until late in the 4th when . . . Jones hits a driving layup for the win.
It was so plausible until that last part.
He actually did hit a lyup the other night, didn’t he?
It was weird. I was like “that was weird.”
Weirdest part – no mule kick. WTF Damon?
