Mike Brown **** the bed again

Me and Ray Allen had the same point total, LeBron missed 100 layups, Mike Brown may be Sumitas, Ben Wallace cant even play defense very well, Rondo looks and talks like Chris Tucker, Wally should play about 8 minutes a game, I cant figure out why Joe Smith and Pavalovic dont play, Doc Rivers seems more concerned with tutoring Rondo than paying attention to the game, etc. At least Sam Cassell was able to be the closer, hit a couple of big shots and almost get in a fight.

Yeah, who knew "King" James' diarrhea bug was communicable??

He had a chance to semi-redeem himself at the end of the game with an ever makeable lay-up and hershey squirted one more time...How many turnovers did he end up with??

Brutal would be an understatement when describing this game.

Its just disgraceful to lose that game if you are a Cleveland fan.

Obviously James played poorly but the celtics hardly distinguished themselves. Beating Cleveland by 4 at home when James makes 2 FG's is not a good sign for them.

You were lucky to be in the game. Celtics were bad too

Absolutely right. If James plays just bad instead of stinking up the joint Cavs win by 5. If he plays good they win by doubles. The Cavs stink, and the coach is bad, but I think the Celtics are in trouble this series.

The Celtics suddenly look really slow. Cleveland has too many players in the rotation. A slowdown team doesnt need to play 10 guys. They still spend too much time standing around looking at each other.

I totally agree. They both are capable of playing better ball than they have been playing this post-season. James will have better games this series (is it possible to have worse??), and that's when we can get a real gauge of how this one is going to play out. Which ever team slinks their way out of this series has something else coming to them when they play Detroit. The team has been flat out firing on all cylinders ever since game 3 ended against the Sixers. When Rip and Prince are in rythym, they are ultra tough to play defense against and are a super tough team to transition on.

Pistons in 5 regardless of their opponent. JMO.

The Bid 05-06-2008 10:39 PM

Towards the end of the game the Cavs get 3-O boards in a row and never call an offensive set, they just wing it. They back the ball out, and just wing it. Not only that but they ultimately end up throwing up some playground shot. Just pathetic, Im going to bed. Probably have a nightmare about Mike Brown

The tight games has Cassell in at the end.
Very telling.

You could easily say the same thing about Pierce and Allen. If they don't go a combined 2-18, the Celtics win easily. Pierce said he knew that if he and Allen could equalize James, the Celtics would be in good shape. Who knew it would happen like that though?

What often times goes unsaid is the two teams actually played pretty good defense at times. It is the playoffs. As a Cleveland fan it's meaningless to me. This year's Cav's team is less predictable than the 2 months from now weather forecast. It would not shock me if they got swept...it would not shock me if they won the next 4. They are a terrible shooting team. In games they shoot 50 percent they usually blow the team out.

Just think...LeBron was a mere 1 assist and 1 rebound short of the rarely if ever seen unique QUAD double...(points, rebounds, assists, turnovers).

(to be fair Cannon, Pavlovic aprained his ankle AGAIN the 2nd to last game of the season and wasn't even considered playable til game 5 of the Wash series)

I'll keep an open mind in this series. Remember, LeBron was eviscerated after game 2 of the Detroit series last year after two brutally close losses. He seemed to rebound from that ok. KG is right...what is also being ignored is Pierce and Allen also going 2 for 18 combined just as LeBron is also not going to happen again.

Listen....Boston won--that's the primary function in these things..to win.

But it's a game that was too close at home for the 66 win team.

Cleveland was 0-2 to Detroit last year.

The best part of Mike Brown's game is the set of "faces that make me look like I know what I'm doing--but I don't" he selects for each game. His philosophy is great...if Lee plays bad...we don't win.


Grade jub ,coach!!


duh...we're down 2 ...led's led the guy who is 2-16 teg dis shud.



















wud happund?









oh...duh.....now we still gud a chance....bud we need a four----I mean 3.....who shud teg dis shud? I thing the guy who is 2-17.





















wud happund!!?






This is what happens when ownership hires a parrot to transfer their wishes to the court....James Good...everyone else bad.





This is how Brown coaches----this is how ownership wants it because this makes James happy.





Ah wonder why players don't scream at him openly on the court when he has a horrible,DUMB game like this?




And why DOES he do that very same thing to them?


The Cavaliers will go as far as Z and 2 or 3 others are allowed to help the FROZEN ONE.

Mortimer 05-07-2008 09:51 AM

Yer damn fucl<in'-aye straight I'm right.

Mortimer 05-07-2008 09:55 AM

You do that again----and I will tell you something about the 5 Steves that you don't wanna hear.









You got that...Hossy?
