I am also hopeful that they dont hurt themselves by losing to one of these trap teams. They have only lost to 3 sub .500 all year- Washington, Chicago, and Indiana<BR/>If you count detroit as .500 as well but i think they are at .500 currently not postive though (if they are then 4). Every game counts from here on out, home court advantage would be huge in the postseason.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5352083203642409187.post-57855617817984873072009-03-23T17:49:00.000-04:002009-03-23T17:49:00.000-04:00It's just hard to win night in and night out for a...It's just hard to win night in and night out for a month without losing a trap game. It's not a sure thing but if I were a gambling man, I'd say it's more probable than not that they will lose one more suprising game the rest of the way.

But let's check the facts. This guy played 310 NBA games - to put that in perspective, Deron Williams has already played 296 (wasn't he just playing in the Final Four?). Even better, after winning the '96 3 point contest, he had to suit up in that hideous NBA red, white and blue jersey to defend his crown because he had been released and no team picked him up (there should be a rule that if you have to wear that jersey to defend your 3 point crown, you must also wear a dunce cap with a spinner during comepetition). So basically, this guy is a poor man's Craig Hodges, who was a poor man's Steve Kerr, who was a poor man's Jeff Hornacek. Ok, got it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5352083203642409187.post-5564864507717937732009-03-20T10:13:00.000-04:002009-03-20T10:13:00.000-04:00I just read Legler's dump of an article.

I particularly liked when he stated the celtics have more offensive options and then in the next paragraph calls the cavs the deepest of the teams. Call me crazy, but if you are deeper than any other team does that not imply that you have more options?<BR/><BR/>As for his comment about the celtics having won big games on the road. They didn't win on the road until they played Detroit who happened to be the most underachieving group of players of the last 10 years. They have carried themselves like they won multiple titles, but I only remember 1. Oh and I forgot, the cavs CRUSHED their spirit and will the year before.The Talented Lamond Murrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17237010785847841741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5352083203642409187.post-54218313618515971932009-03-20T09:33:00.000-04:002009-03-20T09:33:00.000-04:00I dont know what toughness is.

Fortunately I did not miss much. I too felt completely confident that the cavs would win the game as soon as overtime started. <BR/>I'm ecstatic that Mike Brown has finally started to play Lebron for the entire 4th quarter of close games. It's about freaking time! The real cavs team is the one that has Lebron playing the entire 4th. It seems that everybody at espn and tnt fail to realize this fact. I understand that he was resting him and this will payoff come playoff time, but it was frustrating watching the cavs letting teams get back in the game or pull away when the game was within reach. For example, the most recent loss against boston when Brown petty much waved the white flag by not starting the 4th with LBJ on the court. <BR/>Looking at the cavs remaining schedule this morning an dreaming about what could be had me thinking of a 68 win season. The problem game will be in orlando on the 2nd night of a back to back with both games on the road. That's just me dreaming and reality has me thinking of something closer 3-4 losses in the remaining games. Either way this team has been a pleasure to watch and follow all year and I can't wait for the postseason to begin. The excitement level is gong to be insane!The Talented Lamond Murrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17237010785847841741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5352083203642409187.post-85607039663898169532009-03-20T09:13:00.000-04:002009-03-20T09:13:00.000-04:00Part of me wonders why I go and read ESPN 1st thin...Part of me wonders why I go and read ESPN 1st thing in the morning when I know how dumb and outwardly biased they are, but I guess I keep thinking that they will come to their senses and see the Cavs for what they are-- The best team in the league right now. I mean, the only team even in the discussion at this point is the Lakers. The Celtics? Pffffft!<BR/><BR/>And the whole Paul Pierce thing-- I guess just consider the source. If I'm not mistaken (and I may be) didn't Timmy Legler pick us to win only like 42-43 games this year? <BR/><BR/>Let me show you these stats: <BR/>8.0 points<BR/>3.6 assists<BR/>1.8 rebounds<BR/>0.8 steals<BR/>1.0 blocks<BR/><BR/>Not bad you say, that would be a very useful 6/7th man to have on your team wouldn't it? Well who is this player X? <BR/>Nobody, that is the DIFFERENCE in all these categories between Pierce and LBJ with Lebron having higher numbers in each column. Essentially, if you added Paul Pierce's and Kirk Hinrich's numbers for this year together you'd get Lebron. <BR/><BR/>If only they had a quantifiable measure for clutchness and intensity though right Timmy?<BR/><BR/>Jackass.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
