John Marshall above said “its not over” that Orlando would beat Cavs as I predicted.

Fact: It is over.

Another Fact: LeBron has become LeBum with his pouting.

Final Fact: Celts will moist banner #18 next year. I guaranty it.

It will be such a pleasure to not have to hear about how Lebron is:

So fast
So strong
So smart
So good
Such a great passer
Loved by his teamates
The Best
The MVP
The triple double machine
Better than even Kobe!

anymore this season!!!!

I watch basketball almost year round, and one thing I noticed about the Cleveland team from the very beginning of the season was that Cleveland did not have a bench or scorers. I mentioned this same fact a few times during conversationS with friends that “Cleveland did not have a bench or scorers.” Playing in the Eastern Conference, Cleveland was not exposed of their short comings during the regular season because the challenge was not there unless Cleveland was playing against Boston, Orlando, and no other team in the Eastern Conference. Cleveland cruised playing against weak Eastern Conference Teams and probably did not take notice because they were never exposed due to winning weak games.
The two post season victories were against teams that did not want to play (Detroit) and against a team that did not believe (Atlanta). I did not believed that Boston would have beaten Cleveland because Garnett was not around, but after watching Orlando crush Cleveland; maybe Boston could have won without Garnett. Orlando exposed Cleveland’s bench and scoring situation. Orlando stretched Cleveland’s defense and took away one of the three scorers (West, Williams, Lebron), which really exposed their weak bench. Joe Smith and Ben Wallace don’t bring offense, Wally was suspect ever since leaving Minnesota, and Gibson had a problem with back stiffness and soreness. Every other bench player that Cleveland had was in street clothes, and I’m sure Van Gundy took notice of that situation. Cleveland had no answer for Howard, Petrus, Lewis, Turk, or Orlando’s guards for that matter. It was just a matter of time before an opposing coach recognized the weaknesses of Cleveland and exposed it, if not for Orlando it would have been what-ever team that came out of the West. Big “Z” appeared as if he could no longer move laterally or jump, Howard abused him and if Cleveland uses Big “Z” next season the results of this season will be the same. Vereijo spends too much time trying to attract the officials attention, besides, he has no offense and can’t play defense away from the painted area. If Veriejo opts out, let him walk and go after Zack Randolph.
What this season boiled down to for Cleveland was a collection of personal awards and nothing else. Mike Brown benefitted from a weak conference as did Lebron, the real champions will soon be crowned and exposed (LA).

This is not the same song that I’m hearing from all of you looneys when the Cavs swept through Detroit and Atlanta. The Le Bron was all that, Cleveland this, Cavaliers that! Life was good till you played a legitimate championship team. No hate here! Just an observation. Have fun all summer making excuses for another year of failure…

Javanman there’s no room for hate here. The Cavs got out coached and out played by the better team,all year I was telling myself how do they do it,well here’s my anwser. Great regular season team with one great player and lots of good role players,however the playoffs a totally differenent monster. You need at least two allstar players and I really didn’t see Mo as a allstar and it proved out in the Orlando series. Out of the four teams left the Cavs had the least amount of talent, Boston had more talent without KG. LeBron is fabulous and coach Brown is still learning. Look out for my Celtics next year when healthy!

“The Magic could just as easily be chilling in Hooterville, awaiting the Western Conference champion, had not LeBron James hit his spectacular buzzer-beater at the end of Game 2.”

Yeah and Michael Jordan wouldn’t have 6 titles had not he hit a couple buzzer-beater. More points in 48 minutes = win, did you know that?

javaman you are a hater

Lebron is averaging 42, 9 and 7 in this series. If the Cavs lose this series all it does is reveal how much he lifted his chump teammates during the regular season. No one has ever done more with less.
