Seriously, that kid looked like an MVP out there tonight. We need to start him right away, what? 21 points, 4 of 7 on FG's, and 12/12 FT's. One of the best performances I've seen off the bench in awhile, wwwhhheeeewwww, great game!
Anyone else see the jersey hit the assistants face? Rasheed got pissed going back to the locker room, and threw his jersey off the wall, smacking right into someone's face 5-10 feet back!
HAHA!
EDIT: They just replayed it!

I want the Cleveland Browns to be my pallbearers so they can let me down for the last time.
Is everyone watching the postgame? It just showed Rasheed throwing his shirt off in disgust. Man, I have no repect for this guy whatsoever, he is very immature and throws temper tantrums. Come on, he thre his head band, now his shirt, grow up Rasheed.
Jeeze this just adds to my fuel of hating him already.
we have outplayed detroit in 4 games... we have been the better team...
gibson was remarkable... this kid has it, plain and simple, i think the talk of finding a point guard is over, this kid will be our starting point guard in the near future...
the pressure is really on detroit now... big time
if they don't win game 5, this series will end in cleveland... we almost did it last year, we will not fail again if we grab game 5...
right now, with this team, i even feel really good about them playing in a game 7, we've been great on the road, and detroit really isn't going to get a ton better, they will not blow us out at all in this series...
but we have to clean up the 3rd quarter struggles...
we're like a football team that comes out of halftime going 3 and out on 3 straight possessions, by either all passing plays or all running plays... very very bland
who would have thought that after 4 games, the cavaliers have made chauncey billups look worthless... he really crumbled in that 4th quarter... every decision he made was the wrong one...
- Rasheed Wallace the puke he is whining every chance possible draws gooden into a Technical foul and then goes crying to his bench throws his headband and gets T'd up himself.....FOOL
- Richard Hamilton is lucky gave him just that little shove when he tried to get in Lebrons ear when he was getting ready to sink to free throws..FOOL
fuel to the fire baby..KEEP IT COMING
on some cavs notes....we have got to fix these third quarters...the cavs have scored 15, 16, 13, 14 for a total of 58 in 4 games for an average of 14.5 per game..not gonna cut it..especially with a resilient team like detroit...need to come out of halftime and punchem square in the mouth...
we win in Detroit..oh my..oh dear..
ps. I can't wait to see the crap the national media will try to rag on lebron with..they always find something
Quote: Here's a question - anyone else find it 'odd' how 'off' the Pistons were today, esp Billups? Sorry to bring the conspiracy theory out, but having the series tied at 2 is much better for ratings than a 3-1 series.
It just seemed like there were too many 'weird' plays occuring by the Pistons.
Game 1 - 13 pnts 5 assts 7 to's (win) Game 2 - 13 pnts 6 assts 5 to's (win) Game 3 - 13 pnts 3 assts 5 to's (loss) Game 4 - 23 pnts 2 assts 5 to's (loss)
Billups wasn't off "today"... he's been off the whole series...
The difference between this trip to Detroit and the last trip is confidence. You can tell they have it now and would like nothing better than to beat the Pistons to advance at home!!!
GO CAVS!!!!!!!
Our honor defend, we will fight to the end, for OHIO! GO BUCKS!
Quote: Richard Hamilton made me extremley ticked when he got in Lebrons face!!
It honestly didn't bother me when he was talking to LeBron when LeBron was standing behind the 3 point line, but when LeBron walked to foul line and Rip went with him.. I thought that was uncalled for.... Obviously LeBron thought it was pretty funny... at least AFTER he made them both he thought it was funny. $20 says there is a hard and fast rule about that next year...

You and your facts ruining everyones fun
They said Rasheed has 5 technicals, 7 technicals and he gets suspended. What are the odds of him getting 2 technicals in game 5?

GO CAVS!!!!!!!
in games one and two, we didn't have guys who were confident in taking big shots
and now we do, and now lebron should have the opportunity to take some of those big shots, they can't load up on him when gibson is on the floor...
and if donyell marshall is knocking down shots? even more room for lebron...
but do you guys notice that when gibson is out there, they can't drape lebron in three pistons?
if drew gooden keeps knocking down shots, i think we're on our way to the finals
the attitude of the cavs, after the game, in the interviews is really telling, they aren't overly excited at all, they know this series is just beginning... they know there isn't a guarantee we win this next game just because we did it last year...
the cavs are the better team right now, and the only thing detroit can hang their hat on, is that 2 of the last 3 games are at home...

yea it was one thing when Lebron said something to Arenas then walked away..but walking with lebron to the foul line and making contact with him..not smart..hes too little to be doing that...china doll that he is
man it sure is nice to be playing basketball in may/june. Very enjoyable game, once again tho MB's subs left me going wtf? but alls well that ends well. Just kinda of a side note. If it wasn't cleveland playing, This would still be a very enjoyable series to watch as a sport fan. This has everything you want in a playoff series. Glad its the Cavs in it. The West is a joke, so much parity. I'm not scared of SA one bit.

LMAO - come on... it was the same damn thing LBJ did last year in Washington... I had NO problem what-so-ever with it... except that they changed the rule so I could have seen a foul called... but I had no problem with it... LBJ did the same thing last year... only difference is Arenas missed BOTH and LBJ made BOTH and then looked Rip down! It was awesome!
Exactly. You know the rest of the games will be like all of these thus far,,all close. And we have guys who will say "Give me the ball" when it's on the line. Esp LBJ. Speaking of LBJ, his free throws were CLUTCH! Just that little stat and what it does for his confidence is huge. You could tell for a while there he didn't want the rock when it counted, but now he and all of us can see what kind of player he really is. The emergence of Gibson and just the experience he is gaining in the playoffs will mean we won't need a PG. Drew Gooden has really played well and hit some big shots when we needed it. Man, this team is firing on all cylinders now. Look out Detroit! How tough is it going to be for Detroit to come home tied after having us on the ropes??? WOOOO!

the spurs are a great team, i wouldn't say that they don't scare me, but if there was a legitimate finals contender from the west, i think the spurs would be one of teams that we match up well with... still a pretty tough task to beat them in seven games...
but when dallas went out in the first round, and knowing phoenix doesn't have the style to play in the finals, i knew we would have a good chance if we were to make the finals...
dallas was the one team i didn't want to play... i'm not saying we couldn't beat them in a 7 game series, but strangely i think we'd be better off playing the spurs...
and it is nice to see may and june basketball, it shortens the wait for september 9th...
Ok.. here's a fact for you..... in the 1st quarter and the fourth quarter of this series, the Cavs have outscored Detroit by 5... not insignificant but for the purposes of this post, we'll call that a wash over 4 games... in the 3rd quarter the Pistons have outscored the Cavs by... 29 ... a pretty big number and an awful trend... however.. HOWEVER, in the second quarter the Cavs have outscored the Pistons by 23...
So why, WHY I ASK, are the commentators not asking the obvious question, "Why do the Pistons suck so bad in the second quarter?"
I almost hate to even say (or think) this ........
But I truly think that the Cavaliers will be in the Finals this year.

Did anyone else see the behind the back jersey toss by Sheed (out of frustration) into the security guards face on the way back to the Detroit lockeroom after the game? Good stuff
I stated that the Cavs would get ripped 4-0 in this series. My apologies to, and congrats to the Cavs for proving me wrong on that. Still, I firmly believe anything less than winning a ring is a failure. Congrats to Lebron James for FINISHING the last 2 games. Sinking the tough shots in game 3 and sinking BOTH free throws tonight. I'm not going to hold my breath, but hopefully this is him turning the corner. Oh, and Mike Brown - DANIEL GIBSON, 35 minutes 21 points 4-7 from the field (12-12 from the line). Hughes, 16 minutes - 1-6 from the field. LEARN FROM THIS - START GIBSON YOU FOOL.
- Rasheed Wallace the puke he is whining every chance possible draws gooden into a Technical foul and then goes crying to his bench throws his headband and gets T'd up himself.....FOOL
2 totally independent events. Gooden's foul was hard, probably dirty and we're lucky he just got T'd up.
