Oh, don't worry ... you still have Mo Williams and Mike Brown to rag on.




Well you guys are down to one scapegoat for now

Honestly, I can't even defend Mike Brown. His rotations have been beyond baffling. He's tried just about every lineup EXCEPT the one everybody has been calling for.

Now, if the Cavs can pull this out, they need to remember that they have to play this EXACT same way in Game 7.




Minus a few turnovers... they have left some EASY points on the floor..

Anyone else notice LeBron keep looking up at the clock? Like he's counting down his time in Cleveland?

Even if he does decide to stay, I'll take a winner and a leader like DeWayne Wade over LeBron any day of the week.

Well, at least you have finally made your true feelings known.

You want LeBron to leave.

It's not that I want him to leave. It's just that I'd rather have a guy like DeWayne Wade.

And what do you mean "finally"? I've never hidden that I think LeBron is a punk, a baby, and doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as Jordan or Kobe until he grows up.

I've never hid that.

I'm not even going to watch the end of this game..

LeBron has no confidence, doesn't seem to be trying to build any either...

Magic in 5 over the Celtics. Lakers in 6 over Phx

Magic in 6 to win it all.

Ok so when someone complains today and tells me I'm doing a bad job at my job, I'm going to use it as an excuse to under perform for the rest of the day.




The reading comprehension around here has really gone down the toilet over the years.

Never did I say anywhere that it gives anyone an excuse to perform poorly. What I said, to stay with your analogy, is that if people walked by you all day long while you were doing your job and told you how horrible they thought you were, how worthless you are, how you could never be the best at your job because you just don't want it bad enough...when you checked your email it had thousands of unread messages saying you suck and I hope you go leave to work in another city, when you go out to the grocery store after work the people walking around in the produce aisle sneer at you...If that doesn't take an emotional toll on you then you are either a liar or a robot.

Its no different for anyone else, professional athletes to janitors, we are all human beings who have feelings and they have an effect on our behavior and our performance whether we want them to or not. Any other thing you took from what I said is you putting meaning into what I said that isn't there.

How has Jamison been a bust pickup? He's been one of the only people producing for us lately.

It happened two years ago in the Finals. As usual King Narcisist gets a ton of credit and no blame.

I did not watch all of the regular season by any stretch, but does it look/feel like what got us to the #1 seed has been abandoned in the playoffs? No JJ, little Z, not nearly enough Andy... but plenty of slow Shaq.

Seems like what got us here was completely tossed out the window once this series started.

Really? It happened 3 straight years when they got bounced from the playoffs without winning a single series while Kobe disappeared and pouted in the media.

You don't remember all the people in the media saying that the Lakers made the wrong decision sticking with Kobe instead of Shaq when they had they feud and he was traded to Miami? It was all over the place during the Shaq-Wade finals, it was practically all anyone talked about.

In retrospect the media was wrong and the Lakers chose right, but they really struggled without Shaq and Kobe showed how much of a punk he really was.

Or do you just have a selective memory?

Kobe never quit on his team is all I meant by that. I know Kobe is a punk. But he has NEVER quit on his team.

There's a different between a bad series, and doing the crap LeBron is doing.

Even the announcers are talking about how he wants no part of the basketball.

Kobe never let that happen, period.

He tried last year and got burned very badly by the Suns front office because they backed out at the very last minute. Some people argue it was the reason we didn't make the finals last year because we didn't get a major deal done because of the full attention we gave Amare with no backup plan. He tried again this year and the process started to repeat itself so he made the next best move and went with the backup plan instead of letting them burn him again. What do you expect him to do? You'd be sitting here ripping him if he let what happened last year happen again this year and you're ripping him because he didn't.

Some people just can't stop complaining.

This could be the final quarter of the season, this is absolutely pathetic. Man, what an absolute downer, seriously.

He did it Game7 against the Suns. He quit. There's no two ways about it.

No Bout a Doubt it

This guy is really trying to tell me that the home crowd booing contributed to last game's loss? MattDefend is a more appropriate name.

Get me an offensive minded coach that knows what he's doing, and a good role player - somebody like Paul Pierce or Ray Allen.

After watching the last two games, I'm convinced that Lebron James isn't the answer for this team. - He can leave and I wouldn't care.

He usually shows up and performs when it counts, nobody can deny that. But he is definitely a punk. As long as we agree on that I'm good

btw looks like we're making a comeback right now, got my fingers crossed

Here is what I do not understand, and my major criticism of Brown ....

2 guys have given instant energy off the bench Those 2 being Varejao and Hickson.

The team seems lethargic ... so why aren't these guys playing more?

Hey, welcome to the game LeBron.

Let me give you an update on the situation since you haven't been here the last two games.

Well, we lost Game 5 by 32 points at home. There's just over 9 minutes left in Game 6. We trail the series 3 games to 2. If we lose we go home. We're down by 4 points.

Now that you're caught up... Can you play a little basketball for us?

Thanks.

Because I like what Jamison brings to the team and I'm not pissed off that we didn't get Amare I'm an excuse maker and I like to lose? Well then I guess it won't pain me to say you're a whiner and a chicken little then.
