We still love the game, and remain open to allowing the league abuse us once again. Tonight’s Cavs-Mavs matchup will be quite the telling experience.
Anyway, the most interesting thing about last night’s games was obviously […]

Very fair deal when you consider what Jason Kapono and Luke Walton got. That contract is, at the very least, tradable in two seasons. Danny Ferry wins.)
In these trying times, wherein left and right we’re being assaulted by even our most loyal […]

We’ve made the executive decision to watch tomorrow night, and will also watch all the TNT action this evening. Look, this used to be our favorite day of the year - we can’t help but get a […]

23 Comments Published by The Cavalier October 29th, 2007 in NBA, LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers, Detroit Pistons, Rasheed Wallace, Paul Pierce, Who Shot Mamba?, 07-08 PreviewOn this NBA Season Eve*, We’re sorting through a hefty share of emails regarding the Pistons’ Rasheed Wallace claiming that the NBA basically fixed the series with the Cavaliers last season, ie the league wanted LeBron in the Finals.
We’re not sure how that works, when the Pistons let him drive down the lane like 100 […]
Mike Bibby has an ouchy

The non-gang member has contracted what is known as torn hand ligaments. In medical circles, this is known as torn hand ligaments.
What it means is the ligaments in the […]

I’m not sure how many of you keep up with tennis…..but, apparently they are having some issues with players not playing hard enough. Does that sound familiar Cavs fans? Well, instead of just letting the players do this, the governing body for tennis, the ATP, has decided to fine […]

I could only find a pic of her in a bikini throwing a football, but since this is a […]

A logical runner-up would obviously be LeBron heading down to the low post more often FINALLY.
But no - not today. Neither of those lines of thought bring forth the mystical quality we so often strive […]

(Boney did say that he’s not […]

15 Comments Published by The Cavalier October 23rd, 2007 in NBA, Cleveland Cavaliers, TV, Blogs, 07-08 Preview(No PS action - we’re out the door any minute. Sorry and stuff.)
So our mention the other day that we were passing on League Pass this season sparked quite a bit of email - all of which came from people in agreement.
Not only that, but our rationale caused our parents to forego LP, as […]
