I used to be. Then Tim Donaghy, the lack of pure shooters, and the lack of defense ruined it for me.

i would like to see durant take one or two from the lakers. and if lebron doesnt win it this year..i dont know if he ever will! the cavaliers are the only team that cleveland wants to watch, so win a freakin championship for us! i am a cleveland fan, watch the indians and browns every time i can, but if lebron gets traded, i get traded..at least in the NBA. im more of a lebron fan than cavaliers fan.

Sign in the crowd ... "Thanks for LeMemories". Why all of a sudden were Booby Gibson and Z getting major first half minutes? Whatever happened to Hickson? The Cavs you knew in the regular season have wilted.

I putting all blame on LeBron James and the coach. LeBron looks at times as if he has given up, coach is making some questiionable calls.. Just dont understand....also why the hell dont they run with the ball!

so no good things to say about the celtics huh? i would start with the fact that rondo seems to constantly get things going. it took the second half last game but he did finally get it going.

Rondo has played good, but I still think its more a Cavs thing not playing like they should....No intensity! NONE!

The rotations have been crap.
The players look lost.
There are rumors of mutiny, players turning against each other and coach Brown.
There is no spark on defense.
There is no plan on offense.
Game 5 was the worst game I've seen from the Cavaliers in the LeBron era.

Yet, Cleveland is only down one game with two to go. Don't count out the Cavaliers yet. Yes, Rondo has played extremely well, and Pierce had a game on Tuesday. But you never, EVER count out the team with the best player. If James wants to be considered "The Chosen One" or "King James" or anything approaching Kobe and Jordan, he needs to step up and earn those nicknames and hype.

And he will.

So the good D by the celtics, veterans stepping up in the big game last night, and doc rivers game plan have nothing to do with their success? i gotta love cav fans who can only see one side of the spectrum. the only thing i would of questioned last night is why no fouling with 1:30 left. they just let the celtics sit out front with the ball.

Not saying the Celtics dont deserve the credit, but why cant our coach make the adjustments?? why didnt we foul in the last couple minutes....cause we QUIT. Starts with the coach and LeBron...LeBron gave up in game 5...that has made it easy for all the other players to give up.

what adjustments did you want him to make? your offense is all around lebron. if he doesn't go your team doesn't go. been that way all year. your defensive game plan was pretty good. lbj on pierce who was only averaging 11/game until last night, mo and parker on rondo- who we all know is the real deal, ray allen never really got going and kg had his coming out party last night. the bottom line is the playoffs are different than the post season. when you have veterans that know how to win and have that instinct that makes a difference as we saw on the floor. this was probably the c's last run as they are getting a little old and ragged. them giving up the regular season to keep guys healthy for the post season this year was the difference.

word is calipari is coming to town and this will help keep lbj around for 3 years. time will tell i guess.

he could rip on a player once in awhile, he doesn't always have to be friends....I think Big Z should have gotten more minutes, I still think he would have been more productive than Shaq....Why not run on the C's and run them to death, instead of always playing half court ball...maybe this could have gotten them into a flow that has not been there since the start of the Playoffs...The guy had no sense of urgency, as well as LeBron.....so who should you blame more? Bottom line is, were all looking from the outside and all think we know more right thumbup1.gif

Of course all of that had to do with the Cavaliers failings (and maybe even more than we realized after seeing them handle Orlando in Game 1) ... However, this team looked NOTHING like a 61-win team. Give tons of credit to the C's, but their influence ends at some point. This Cavaliers team was mentally defeated. They gave up.

Cavs just got beat by a better team.
The Celtics were just plain better and A LOT better than the Cavs.
It's not like they were getting beat in overtime or by last second shots, they got dominated.
This team is a long way from a championship and their best player will be leading LeBulls next season.

Story is that just before game 4, LeBron found out that Delonte West was nailing his mom. Team fell apart and divided the locker room. Mike Brown couldn't put the two on the floor at the same time, so rotations were all screwed up. They didn't win a game from that one on.
