Hawks/Cavs, Mavs/Nuggets, etc.

Obviously I go to the Highlight Factory...
  • Lebron James is good at basketball.... 47 points, 12 boards, 8 dimes, 5 3-pt fg, only 2 fouls.... Typical night for the King...he's absolutely unstoppable...we all know this...but when he gets every call on both ends? Even scarier...add in that he was shooting the jumper as well as he can possibly shoot it?....recipe for disaster...The fact that Cleveland got 7 points from their ENTIRE bench...and the Hawks lost by 15 at home...should tell you all you need to know...Joe Johnson was average, Josh Smith was typically dreadful with flashes of competency, Mike Bibby can't handle the ball, run a team, or defend at the level of an NBA point guard anymore, Zaza Pachulia got ejected for reasons unknown to the announcers, players, coaches, or fans, Marvin Williams only played 13 minutes even though he seemed completely healthy and was effective on both ends....I could go on for days.... I'm frustrated...this is the high point of any fan's frustration with a team.....
  • And I can't compare to how Mavs fans must feel...really? You TRY to commit a foul and they won't give one to you? In a game where there were 60+ fouls committed? and then Melo hits the dagger...game over, series over...3-0 lead for Denver....done and done...I will say this...I respect the effort from Dirk tonight...33 and 16 is nothing to sneeze at for anyone....
  • Yao Ming out for the year....a shame for the Rockets who really came together late....you can turn the lights out on that series now...
  • Zach Greinke threw 8 IP of 1 ER baseball...and lost.... I've never seen a weirder stat line than 6-1 with a 0.51 ERA...that's almost impossible....but he's still been incredible.... 53 IP, 3 ER, 59 K, 8 BB, 0 HR allowed....speaks for itself
That's all for now...Climbing off the ledge...
