don't hold your breath on that one buddy.
Oh I'm not, check my previous posts. I thought you guys would certainly make a game if not steal Game 2. I said I was worried somewhere inthis thread. My comment was more in response to his post about his newfound hate for the Cavs...which I found funny. Either way I truly believe this series isover in 4 or 5, and that's my point. I can certainly see you guys taking one at home, but at this point there hasn't been even a remote hint ofstopping any of our bigs, let alone LBJ. And this all goes with saying we shot the ball horribly in Game 1, and very well in Game 2. If we knock down our shotsthis series isn't coming back to Cleveland, our defense will always be there...

at Wizards fans thinking they still have a chance in the series.

If you guys even think that the Wizards are flying back to Cleveland this season, then I have some oceanfront property in Montana I'm trying toget rid of...

Time for the

ehhh, yall complain if he doesn't drive, but then he does and it's supposed to be a foul.

Dude can't win.
Yes, he can win ... by driving while knowing he's going to be fouled on most of his drives.

They are going home....I expect them to play much better with their crowd behind them

 

[super noblekane]

In the begining I thought the wizards had a chance but wow they look terrible out there... No direction at all Why does songalias play at all?

We all know the wizards have three somewhat superstars(jamison is a reach)and there is no excuse for them to be blown out that bad like they had last night...

Cavs most definately will win in 5...

Well, yeah...that is my point he can't win with his critics..

He's gone to the line 31 times in 2 games...and just taken 8 threes in those 2 games.

So he's playing how people have wanted him to...and now, it's "Oh, thy give him all the calls"

Star players get star treatment and they always have...

Good point.

"LeBron's jumper sucks"

"LeBron is getting all the calls"

"LeBron sucks!"

^ O.K., now I see what you're saying (I think), and I agree.

He doesn't drive: "Man, he needs to drive more. What? Is he afraid of getting fouled? Suck it up, LeBron!"
He does drive (and gets fouled): "Oh my gosh, I am so sick of this dude getting superstar treatment."

Reports are that Haywood will NOT be suspended.

McDyess got suspended for less last year. We'll be on the look out for retaliation...(im lookin at you DeWayne Jones..)

i'm not sure if this hasn't been posted yet, but

Hip-hop artist Soulja Boy has accepted DeShawn Stevenson's invitation to sit courtside for the Wizards first home game against the Cavaliers in the playoffs.
Stevenson invited the rapper after LeBron James compared himself to Jay-Z, and Stevenson to Soulja Boy last month after Stevenson called James "overrated." While this is not fantasy newsworthy, and may not even qualify as news in any circles, it does add a little more humorous intrigue to an already intense playoff matchup.

DeAndre Way is not much of a basketball fan and, surprisingly, he has never seen LeBron James play. So when Way saw that James mentioned his stage name, "Soulja Boy" in a recent article, Way was caught way off guard.

"Someone from Interscope Records called me and sent me the quote," Way said. "I looked and didn't really think much about it. LeBron said something like he was Jay-Z and DeShawn [Stevenson] is Soulja Boy. I took that as [disrespectful]."

i can't wait till thursday, i will be there

The problem with Haywood not getting suspended is that say LeBron he gets fouled like that again and he is unable to catch himself and breaks a wrist orcollarbone.

It leaves the door open for a full scale brawl. The blood will be on Stu Jackson's hands.

And the sad thing is that there is precedent!! The Wiz say they will foul LeBron hard.

And they go out there and put his career in danger.

And that elbow that Lebron gave to dude's face meant nothing?

As far as the Wiz saying they will foul Lebron hard, calm down Gloria....this is the playoffs

After hearing of the Cavaliers' concerns, Wizards coach Eddie Jordan said his team isn't using a hack-a-'Bron tactic or playing dirty. "Look, we want to stay in front of LeBron so he won't get to the paint and leave his feet and finish at the rim," Jordan explained. "It's not entrapment. We're not allowing him to drive, and then we're going to foul him. We want to do the best we can diligently enough to stay in front of him so he won't get into the paint. ... But at the end of the day, when it's LeBron in the paint leaving his feet, we don't want to give him an easy layup. Simple as that. And we're not going to do anything flagrant.

Wizards guard DeShawn Stevenson on whether there is a difference between a foul and a ''LeBron foul,'' as James said this week: ''He's going to cry about calls; that's what he do.''

I can imagine that invitation.

Stevenson: "Yo, this is DeShawn Stevenson. Dude, LeBron James disrespected you after I called him overrated. You should come sit court side for gamethree and wear my jersey"

Soulja Boy: "I'll be there! Who is this again?"

Stevenson: "DeShawn Stevenson"

Soulja Boy: "And you are......"

Stevenson: "DeShawn Stevenson, I play for the Wizards. I grow a beard"

Blatche was not in the air defenseless.

Whatever though. The Wizards are an embarassment to professional sports.

Trying to play a tough man game that isn't their style. Stick to the finesse run n gun.


Good job coach Jordan.

 

[allen3xis]

On another note..

The term "Big 3" should never be used in association with Jamison, Butler and Arenas again. (it shouldn't have been used in the first place)

 

[grittyman20]

Blatche was not in the air defenseless.
When it comes to playing dirty, any shot to the head is about as equally dirty as attacking someone while in the air....both can result in seriousinjury.

I'm not even mad about when Lebron did, because he wasn't the one who initiated the physical play...but let's not act like he's an innocentvictim here.

Dude is more than capable of playing "that game" so no need to start the Suspend Hayward campaign.

[jpzx]

Soulja Boy ain't showing up

 

[baconeggcheesebiscuit]

wizards fans better hope deshawn cancels the souljah boy invite or he pulls a no show.
lebron has gone nuts already in about 10 games this season (including playoffs) just because he
found something that ticked him off during the game.

and SB's appearance = more fuel.


lebron is getting lenny cooke flashbacks playing deshawn, really.

 

[belle155]

punk should have been suspended. these hard fouls are premeditated. someones gonna get hurt...
