Cleveland vs Miami on Dec 2nd Thread

i liked the lyin king also

i thought it was great that they could go from feverish booing to cheers for Big Z

Big Z was their "hero" before LeQuit came.

Liking the result a lot.

Thought Bron acted bit jerkish though.

So my prediction was true, he had a great game. D-Wade with 22-9-9 too, James Jones 5-7 from deep, that's the way the Heat gotta play. I'm liking Spo's center rotation more too. Z doesn't play 35 minutes, plays 17 and Joel gets 24. I wish they'd have it like this in close games too, not just in blow-outs.

Oh damn. Still looks like Cleveland is LeBron's bitch.

Actually Z was hurt. Dajuan Wagner was their hero.

Actually Dajuan Wagner was hurt too. Ricky Davis was their hero.

And didnt they have Carlos Boozer? Boy Cleveland really screwed up when they let him go. After having a better year than rookie LeBron. Boozer averaged a double double. Having a presence like him in the post wouldve taken alot of weight off LeBron's shoulders in Cleveland.

Leaveland loses, as expected

Cleveland didn't let Boozer go. Boozer was a jerk.

After the 2003–04 NBA season, the Cavaliers had the option of allowing him to become a restricted free agent, or keeping him under contract for one more year at a $695,000 salary. The Cavaliers claimed to have reached an understanding with Boozer and his agent on a deal for approximately $39 million over 6 years, which he would have signed if they let him out of his current deal.

Cleveland then proceeded to release him from his contract making him a restricted free agent. During this period, the Utah Jazz offered Boozer a 6-year, $70 million contract that Cleveland chose not to match due to salary cap considerations.

Boozer denied that he made any commitment to the Cavaliers: "There was no commitment. It's unfortunate how the turn of events went through the media," Boozer said shortly after signing the deal with Utah. "I'm not a guy that gives my word and takes it away. I think I've made that clear."

In addition, former Cavaliers owner Gordon Gund has said, "In the final analysis, I decided to trust Carlos and show him the respect he asked for. He did not show that trust and respect in return."

yeah that's how Carlos Boozer swindled a blind man. Paul Silas was great. "I'll C U Next Tuesday"
I loved him as the Hornets coach. I wish he'd come back.

this was the first good game I saw from the Heat this season

Yeah, All for one, One for all.

this was the first good game I saw from the Heat this season

Yeah, I agree. Their previous games were not team effort games.

I believe they've got the most 20+ point wins of the season so far and their route in Phoenix was pretty impressive. In general they still need to lift their game against teams above .500 though.

Andrew, Andrew I was thinking that this was the first important game they won

The 96-70 home win over the Magic was pretty big too.

Hard to take anyone's NBA opinion seriously who has a Justin Beiber avatar and sig. Just sayin'.

I was shocked to see someone with Bieber sig and ava. Not to mention his "I'm A Belieber!" title... Awesomeness of this forum is reaching a new low these days.

What's more shocking is that Jae made the sig!

Axel., he stole someones sig and is now being punished for it.

The "Awesomeness" of this forum started going down when you started posting.

Because of you.
And me xD

Cavs better wake up.

The Cavs were saddled with too many bad contracts during the LeBron era, and refused to go through a rebuilding process the way Miami did with Dwyane Wade when Shaquille O'Neal left. So they paid the price. And what's left are role players who lack leadership (Jamison excepted) and upside (Hickson possibly excepted). There's no main dish on the menu, just trimmings and condiments.

The Cavs have escaped the brunt of skepticism because of the hate directed toward LeBron. Basically, their "fall guy" wasn't even in the same uniform. Eventually, though, the public will tire of making LeBron out to be a criminal and the Cavs must fix their own problems instead of shifting blame elsewhere. Their performance the last six games was unacceptable.
