I have a 100% honest question. How man of you were Cavs fans before 2003?
I was at the opening playoff game against the Washington Bullets with Elvin Hayes, Wes Unseld and Jack Marin in 1976. Any other questions?

Gibby, face it. You've been owned once again. Your schoolyard bitchiness is rather comical.

I know exactly what I'm talking about asshole. Ive forgotten more hoops than you ever learned.

The only thing that I've been wrong about the Cavs this year is Jamison and I have admitted it.

I've been ptoven correct on Shaq's shit play and I'm dead nuts right on Mo Williams" having to shoot well in winning a title.

Run along kid.

I'm being extremely calm as well. You know it, I know it, everyone on this site knows it. You are owned more than anyone on here.

You're an asshole...period. He ran the clock down to one second and then hoisted. There is nothing bush about doing what he did. Being the GOAT he stuck it in.

According to you, Shaq shouldn't have seen the floor again... but he played pretty well in the second half. Knocking Rondo on his ass to make him think twice about driving (and it worked) and some clutch shots inside in the final few minutes.

And you were dead wrong about Jamison and wouldn't admit it for the longest time because you're clueless.

And it's not like it's a secret that if Mo scores the Cavs have a better shot of winning....

These threads turn retarded right after the game is over, which is when most of the Cavs trolls come out in full force.

And he shouldn't have. Andy and Hickson played 10 times better than Shaq. Anyone that has a freikin brain has had it with Shaq's shit play. The foul on Rondo was another bad play for Shaq.

Shaq made 2 hoops down the strech and missed 3 others...including 2 layups. The man kills the team defensively as well.

Jamison played like absolute shit his first week with the Cavs. Look up the numbers. After that, he played well and I have saluted him for doing so.

He's still average at best on the defemsive end. KG ate him up tonight until they put Andy on him.
And it's not like it's a secret that if Mo scores the Cavs have a better shot of winning....
And there are plenty of naysayers that want Williams on the bench. Other than the last game against the Bulls, Mo has played like an All star over the last 6 weeks.
Tee it back up Fly...you stink at this and I'll give you another mulligan.

Ooooooh no!!!! A player wasn't at his best for the first week he was with a new team? HEAVEN FORBID!

And good job on completely ignoring the Shaq point (which showed you were terribly wrong).

As far as Mo Williams? Doesnt' really bolster your case at all... there are usually a few people who panic during a game. But everyone agrees that Mo has to play well for the Cavs to win.

I was away all night and missed the game.

The only scores I saw were the half and final.

Did Boston pull a classic choke job or did Cleveland wakeup in the 2nd half?

Good game.

I think it was pivotal even for a Game 1.

Boston needed to win after playing a solid game on the road. They'll have a tough time winning in Cleveland now.

Being a true lifelong Cleveland fan and having a severe case of Clevelanditis, I was distraught after the defense in the first half, but I was very pleased with the defense in the second half. I couldn't for the life of me understand why Mo was chasing Rondo over the top of the pick-and-roll in the first half. There is no excuse for that. Let him shoot wide open jumpers if nothing else. There was no help defense in the first half, they looked like they were standing in cement. The second half they did better on the pick-and-roll and they moved and rotated. Garnett is a tough matchup defensively for Poon Tawn and that may limit Jamison's minutes a bit in this series, though he didn't do a terrible job. He fought him better in the second half. If the Cavs hope to win the series they can't play anymore defense like that awful first half effort.

The offense was fine, they missed some shots that they usually make, but they only took 12 threes and attacked the paint pretty well for the most part. Hickson has to play. I love Z, but JJ is so much better right now on both ends. Shaq played very well in the 4th, better than I've seen him play since Jan-Feb.

I'm supposed to read through that? Learn to use the quote feature dunbass.. My comments on Shaq were crystal clear and directly on point. The team plays poorly with him on the court. It's been that way all season.

If Cav fans think that Shaq's the answer to beat Orlando, they are in for a rude awakening.

Biggest move in this game was putting Parker on Rondo to start the third. Rondo essentially took Pierce and Allen out of the game by trying to do what he did in the first half in the second when he was overmatched defensively. Had Rondo been able to dish, things might have been different but with the change up of Parker on him he didn't fair as well as he did in the first half.

JJ needs more minutes. Period. Why Brown insists on getting the ball to Shaq down low to start evey freaking game is beyond me. He doesn't seem to be able to score at will like he used to. His shot is flat and lacks any modicum of touch. 20 minutes for him max untill the Orlando series if we make it...

Jamison played as well as I think he could, KG was a non factor for a lot of the game, Parker had some timely steals in crunch time, Mo got hot for a stretch, LeBron with a workman 35/7/7...

And it looked like the Cavs played like shit.

I agree with Mo playing awesome and that being a key to the team doing well. West has also been pretty damn clutch when he's been on the floor, keeping it within reason when Lebron wasn't on the court.

I disagree that Shaq played poorly tonight. I thought he did well and his foul on Rondo was a good one. They fouled Rondo hard all game and he won't be able to carry the Celtics if he gets beat up like that every game.
