NEXT: The stunning conclusion!
(Check out our appearance on The Basketball Jones podcast wherein we loosely compared LeBron James to a microwave.)
It’s about time someone went philly on that chump.
what the hell is a podcast?? this thing i downloaded is like 35 minutes long, people really like these things?
Nice microwave analogy. What if you’re trying to thaw frozen meat? Wouldn’t you actually prefer a microwave that isn’t as hot? Huh? Did you think about that?
You really think it’ll be Cavs in 6? Then why couldn’t you guys handle us in the regular season? At least you agreed with me that Brendan Haywood actually manages to guard Z for some reason? Perhaps because he’s also as large? Who knows.
There were circumstances around each of the losses, but you guys always play us tough.
We’re inconsistant defensively, which is our biggest problem because of your scorers.
The big thing is LeBron though. All signs say he’ll play with the detemination he did the last 3rd of the season, and when he’s doing that, he’s pretty much unstoppable and our shooters end up wide open.
11/15/05 - Cavs won at home 114-99.
2/10/06 - Wiz win in DC 101-89; Z got ejected and only played 24 minutes. LeBron had a horrible shooting night at 6-23. This was right in the middle of our “retard stretch” of February where we just forgot how to play for some reason. No Hughes either.
2/24/06 - Wiz win 102-94 in Cleveland. No Hughes, but as I remember you guys just beat us this game. Again, this was in the middle of the February retards.
4/16/06 - Wiz win 104-92 in DC. This game meant nothing for us and a lot for you. LBJ and Z barely played in the second half and played at 50% effort in the first half.
I know that sounds like an excuse, but anyone who watched the Cavs all year can tell you the team in February was a completely different team from the one in Nov-Jan, and especially from March-April. They simply has their heads up their asses all month and you caught us 2 games in there. The last game you can easily throw out as irrelevant.
I’m sure you have equal arguments for your side, but that’s the view from the Cavalier angle.
