The Atlanta Hawks Are Being Whiny Babies
One of the best things about basketball is that it is not baseball. I enjoy both sports equally, but basketball has always had an edge in the not-employing-humorless-dickwads department, which means you rarely ever see NBA players or coaches talking about “class” or “playing the right way.” The Atla...
Everybody Is In Big Trouble If LeBron Finds His Jumper
There’s not much the Atlanta Hawks can say about the record-setting three-pocalypse the Cavs laid on them last night. Sometimes the ball just won’t stop going in the hoop, and all you can do is turn your palms up, shrug, and move on. What should concern the Hawks, and the rest of the remaining playo...
The Cavs Just Went Scorched Earth On The Poor Hawks
Tonight the Cleveland Cavaliers dropped an unholy beatdown on the hapless Hawks and put them into the toilet to the tune of 25 threes, 123 points, and 55 percent shooting from three. Every non-garbage time player who took a three hit one, and they smashed the NBA records for most threes in a half (1...
The Playoffs Are Shaping Up Nicely For The Cavs, Huh?
The Cavaliers finished off their sweep of the Pistons Sunday night, but almost as important as beating the Pistons 4-0 was how they did it. LeBron James, Kyrie Irving, and Kevin Love are all healthy, and for the first time in two years actually look like a cohesive unit. Irving is relieving James of...
Kyrie Irving Hits Half-Court Buzzer-Beater
Despite doing just about everything right, the Detroit Pistons just can’t hold an edge against the Cavaliers in this do-or-die Game 4. Kyrie Irving punched the Pistons in the gut with this half-court buzzer-beater at the end of the third quarter, one that gave Cleveland a three-point lead heading in...
Stanley Johnson Thinks He's In LeBron's Head. Okay, Stan.
LeBron James spent large portions of Game 2 punking the Detroit Pistons. He dunked all over Reggie Bullock and let everyone know how awesome it felt, he stink-faced Marcus Morris for daring to leave him open, and he gave rookie Stanley Johnson a meaningful bump during a timeout:...
The Pistons Are Never Going To Get Those Calls Against LeBron
It all fell apart rather quickly for the Pistons in Game 1 against the Cavaliers. For most of the game they acquitted themselves about as well as an 8-seed can hope to, sticking close to the favorites all the way into the final minutes of the fourth quarter. Then Reggie Jackson got mad....
The Cavs' Best Offense Runs Through Kevin Love
In Kevin Love, the Cavaliers have an incomplete player who is very good at the things he does well, and a liability in the things he doesn’t. Trailing in the fourth quarter, and so perhaps out of desperation, Tyronn Lue and the Cavs switched to a risky gameplan that paid off with a win, and a somewh...
The Miami Heat Today Looked Like A Team No One In The East Wants To Play
The sweepstakes to see who loses the NBA Finals, a.k.a. the East, is looking, in the very early going, like someone other than LeBron James could emerge for the first time since 2010. The Pistons gave No. 1 seed Cleveland all it could handle in the matinee, making 15-of-29 threes and playing the Cav...
LeBron James Has Turned It On
LeBron James’s regular season is over. He came out of the game after the third quarter, with the Cavs up 15 on Atlanta in an eventual 109-94 win, and now that Cleveland has clinched the No. 1 seed in the East, James and the rest of the starters will sit out Wednesday’s finale. It has been a down yea...
The Cavaliers' Head Coach Might Have A Mutiny On His Hands
Cleveland Cavaliers head coach LeBron James was typically hands-on and vocal while leading his team to a loss to the Houston Rockets on Tuesday night. It’s tough to pin all responsibility for the loss on James, though, seeing as he was without his best player, forward LeBron James. More worrisome th...
LeBron James Can't Do It All Himself
The team with the best record in the East got rolled in the fourth quarter by the team with the second-worst, and if it’s not quite time for the Cavaliers to panic, it’s well past time to worry about a roster that seems primed to fail at any time....
Want To Buy One Of Dan Gilbert's Bad Sport Coats?
There’s a post on StyleForum.net attempting to sell a few sport coats that allegedly belong to Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert. Have you ever wanted to dress like a leathery plutocrat? Well, if you’ve got $400 lying around, now is your chance....
Did LeBron Unfollow The Cavs On Twitter? He Won't Say.
There was a tweet floating around yesterday alleging that LeBron James had recently unfollowed the Cleveland Cavaliers’ Twitter account:...
LeBron Rocks The Rim With Alley-Oop From J.R. Smith
LeBron James levitated himself to grab this dish from J.R. Smith and throw down an alley-oop early in the Cavs’ battle against the Jazz in Salt Lake City. We give King James plenty of deserved crap around here, but this was a pretty impressive feat—one punctuated by the ESPN Deportes announcing team...
LeBron James Would Have Willingly Switched Positions If Joe Johnson Signed With The Cavs
While the Golden State Warriors try to achieve the best regular season in NBA history, LeBron James is in a weird place. He wants a championship with the Cleveland Cavaliers so badly, and it’s consuming him to the point where he’s sending abstruse tweets about success and pulling your weight. When t...
The Cavs Got Beat By Something Resembling The Memphis Grizzlies
If the Cavaliers were sending cryptic tweets before losing to a Memphis Grizzlies team missing most of the players you’ve heard of, I can’t even imagine what they’re going to send out tonight....
Hmmmmmm. LeBron James And Kyrie Irving Sent Some Cryptic Tweets. Hmmmmmmm.
The Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Boston Celtics 120-103 on Saturday, and one would assume that such a victory would have put everyone in the locker room in a good mood. Maybe it did, but it also put LeBron James and Kyrie Irving in the mood to do some subtweeting....
LeBron, You Okay, Bud?
LeBron James might be going through some shit right now....
