Umm, until Washington proves they can beat the Cavs in a 7 game series, I have no reason not to believe in my hometown squad.

Refs gave them it the first year and the Wiz were injured last year.

If it makes you sleep at night or gives your pathetic city something to hang there heads high over, im all for it.

 

[INTLplayers]

Wizards in 6.

and Belle, as I said in the other post.

i'll put up 50..if you ain't backing out, PM from now on.

I have a sig and avy for you to use too when the Cavs get sent packing.

Exactly. I mean it's all in fun to me, half yall on ignore; But there is some type of CRAZY vendetta against the Cavs.

No excuses, they just had a horrible game plan defending Lebron. One on one coverage did not work out too well for them...but hey, they still have a ring(should have beaten the Spurs).

I would only accept a loss to the Celtics at this point (although it would be disappointing), but if they [the Pistons] lose to anyone else I think Flip shouldget the axe.

It would be bitter sweet though, the great u-Conn match up of Ray Allen and Rip in the ECF (I'm getting ahead of myself).

Cavs are garbage. Wizards will win in 5 easily.

 

[outacontrol music]

30 posts already!!!



The freakin Laker thread is still on the 1st page!


People love to hate the Cavs. As much as everyone cries about them, they sure do give them ALOT of attention

If y'all hate the Cavaliers so much why even bother with the thread???

No one said Lebron is overhyped. Lebron is good, really good. Just the cavaliers arent a threat in the east or a good team period.

 

[proshares]

I'm not hating on the Cavs and I'm not hating on Lebron I just think the Wizards have a better team this year.

 

[allen3xis]

Nah people do say overhyped on here...not overrated.

I guess I just don't see how the Cavs can't be considered a good team...Title contender? No....but yeah, they are a good team (in the East)...mostlydue to him

I hope your joking, the east is weak. If his team was good then they should have atleast 50+ wins which they dont. They arent good at all.

 

[allen3xis]

Since when is a 45 team not classified as good?

Not great by any means. But they're a good team...due to LeBron

If not, most of the league must be awful.

 

[outacontrol music]

Last time I checked, Washington had less wins than the Cavs!

Some of the reasoning done here on NT is befuddling.


I guess that's what you get dealin with youngin's

 

[true 3 blue]

amazing.

 

[MVP]

Cavs aren't good, they're just an average team, 14th in the league in wins, out of 30 teams, that would make you mediocre I think.

 

[allen3xis]

13th*


funny, I'm sure if Wash had made a deadline deal, most of yall would say give them time...

Not the case in Cleveland huh?

Yall focusing in so much on the supporting cast anyway....yall saying it yourself, the East is trash....

LeBron is the 2nd best player in the world...that can go along way.

 

[barondavis5]

really the Wizards will finally be almost healthy this time. Butler, Jamison, and Arenas vs Lebron, ?, and ?.

 

[mez 0ne]

Wizards have less but the Cavs had Lebron out there almost every single night. Wizards had Gilbert out almost the entire year, and even Caron was out asignificant amount of time, so its not like they are THAT far off from the Cavs.

C'mon, neither are TITLE contenders IMO, it would be huge upset if its not the Pistons/Celtics in the Eastern Finals, but this series can go EITHER WAY.

The Wizards front court will have to step up vs. the Cavs.

 

[true 3 blue]

All i know is Washington hasn't been healthy all season and still managed to get 43 while the 2nd best player in the world can only get his team 2 morewins than the team they are playing? Lets not even talk about that debacle in NY when they got throttled by my Knicks

 

[belle155]

just got home from the game and this post is full of fools. the hate for lebron and cleveland grows each year. i guess its just me and outacontrol so far inthis but yeah, cavs got this one. 6 games MAX.

 

[allen3xis]

His last supporting cast was bums too though...they fared well. 'Only' won 50 games last year...5 less.....and they made a huge roster changing trade.

To me Washington's "Big 3" has never done anything that you can place trust in.

C'mon, neither are TITLE contenders IMO, it would be huge upset if its not the Pistons/Celtics in the Eastern Finals, but this series can go EITHER WAY.
Basically....but...I'm just seeing things differently with this match up.

5 less wins in a MUCH weaker East compared to last year.

i'll give you my paypal addy after the Cavs are sent home.

 

[reazson]

I don't think the Cavs will go far at all this year, but it doesn't bother me at all...from what I've seen, they don't deserve @!!$..so theyget no credit from me until they proove something with this new 'team'

this is going to be the most entertaining post season EVER

 

[scottsauce88]

Last time I checked, Washington had less wins than the Cavs!

so you use this horrible logic and then state this:

Some of the reasoning done here on NT is befuddling
and then you wonder why people hate on the cavs

All this doubt will be documented. Just like I did when the Cavaliers defeated the Pistons last year in 6.
and just like I did when you fools got swept by the Spurs.
