If they are going to call that BS on LeBron then it is going to be a long game…They are going to have to call Artest for every hack…

Well, hopefully the first quarter isn’t an indication of how tonight is going to go….

I’m not going to complain about the zebras until a) the Cavs start shooting better than 20%, and b) they stop giving up wide open looks under the hoop

There is just something about this building that the Cavaliers don’t like…..

We are getting pick and rolled to death….

Z needs to get out in front of Yao and prevent him from getting the ball near the bucket
Oh The People You Meet When Your Out of Ammo.........
This bad and we are only down 6…a minor miracle
by John Bena (aka CavsBlogger) on Feb 26, 2009 8:13 PM CST reply actions
Man that was F-ugly half of B-all. Think Lebron will come back in the
second half-ala-like last Friday against the Bucks?
Oh The People You Meet When Your Out of Ammo.........
My son needs to use my laptop. Later guys. Keep the faith1
Oh The People You Meet When Your Out of Ammo.........
Ugh…..To many easy baskets inside. Again, the lasck of an inside scoring presence is hurting the Cavs when their shooters can’t hit shots.

This game is ugly and I don’t have a good feeling…
COME ON CAVS
I'm *always* in the driver's seat, cugino -- Chuck
Not a good start to this trip at all….
Houston has become a true house of horrors.

I warned Juannieboy in the “this week” diary.
by JulioBernazard on Feb 26, 2009 9:04 PM CST up reply actions
Is it just me, or does it seem like, even though we have less losses than anyone else in the conference, our losses are much more devastating and worrisome than when Orlando or Boston loses?
I'm *always* in the driver's seat, cugino -- Chuck
No…I was just saying that to the wife. When the Cavs lose, they really, really lose.

This is a playoff-quality team, not LAC.
by JulioBernazard on Feb 26, 2009 9:08 PM CST up reply actions
But we’re not just losing, we are getting destroyed.

as we did in ORL… and where else? MIA?

LA

Oh yeah, away and home. But we weren’t near full-strength for those.

DC
Eew

That was a blowout where the Cavs came back to make it respectable/almost win?
by JulioBernazard on Feb 26, 2009 9:18 PM CST up reply actions
Yeah. And I was there and was talking smack the whole game and then had to eat crow. Dude people in DC really hate LeBron.

Quite a rivalry. I think the town would’ve been burned down if they sent us Caron or ’tawn.
by JulioBernazard on Feb 26, 2009 9:28 PM CST up reply actions
Yeah, that’s why I was rooting so hard for it to happen. I live in DC, BTW. It’s a cute little “rivalry.” Like the Browns/Steelers where the Browns get all indignant and pumped up but the Steelers roll over the Brwons like they’re just some other team.

Those first few playoff seasons were classics.
by JulioBernazard on Feb 26, 2009 9:39 PM CST up reply actions
They were. I was in DC for the ’06 playoffs before moving down there permanently. It was awesome.

Oh also, too soon about DC burning down jokes

Oh no I was totally joking dude, no worries

You know we have the best avg point diff in the league, right?
by JulioBernazard on Feb 26, 2009 9:24 PM CST up reply actions
Yeah, that’s because we blow people out when we win. I’m just saying our losses seem excruciating. But really, it just seems that way. I’m sure it’s not necessarily the case.
I'm *always* in the driver's seat, cugino -- Chuck
by Turkmenbashi on Feb 26, 2009 9:25 PM CST up reply actions
Wait what?! Really?
I'm *always* in the driver's seat, cugino -- Chuck
by Turkmenbashi on Feb 26, 2009 9:12 PM CST up reply actions
Yup. The HOU trainers think it might not be season-ending.
Are you watching TNT?
by JulioBernazard on Feb 26, 2009 9:13 PM CST up reply actions
Yeah, but not paying much attention

Great….That isn’t good…At All….
J.J. Hickson, where are you?!
by John Bena (aka CavsBlogger) on Feb 26, 2009 9:11 PM CST reply actions
Does BOS getting Mikki Moore mean we can get Joe Smith?
by JulioBernazard on Feb 26, 2009 9:33 PM CST up reply actions
We have a guy with the exact same skill set named Andy.
by JulioBernazard on Feb 26, 2009 9:20 PM CST up reply actions
So, as of a few days ago, did they have a Rafer and a Wafer on the same club?
by JulioBernazard on Feb 26, 2009 9:29 PM CST up reply actions
Heh, I guess so
I'm *always* in the driver's seat, cugino -- Chuck
by Turkmenbashi on Feb 26, 2009 9:31 PM CST up reply actions
It’s almost like they came out expecting to miss shots, expecting to lose…
by John Bena (aka CavsBlogger) on Feb 26, 2009 9:36 PM CST reply actions
We were already weak in the frontcourt
did nothing to get better at the trade deadline in that respect and then a starter breaks his leg.
Ferry should have prepared this team better for something like this. It also doesn’t help that Brown thinks he has to keep 1 offensively inept power forward on the court at all times.
Anytime we play a team with a great big like this we will get destroyed.
