LOL Cleveland

[Reyquila]

I just saw the end of the second game of Magic and cavs: Lebron cannot tie PP's laces. We would have beaten cavs in 4 straight if we hd had the chance. Enough said about the Cavs. They are a mdiocre team, at best; no heart.

This is a joke, right? Lebron is averaging 42 points per game in the first two of this series and is the only Cav doing anything. As I said, this post has to be a joke, right?

LeBron just bailed out the Cavs big time.

The Magic might feel kind of deflated coming off that buzzer beater loss, but they should feel great about their chances now.

By all rights they should be 2-0 in this series.  That shot doesn't go in 9/10 - I don't care if it's the best player in the world taking the shot. 

The Magic can win this series in 6.  They just need to go to Orlando and keep playing hard and hitting big shots in the 4th.  They are the team to beat Cleveland.  They just need to not screw it up.

The Magic are in the driver's seat.

It was no accident we lost to Orlando, they are proving to be a helluva team. They seem to be doing even better on the road than at home. And that Micheal Pietrus, I know why that name kept coming up in past messageboard discussions.

I can't LOL at Cleveland, they are dealing with the same monster we had to deal with only we were sans KG.

Can't wait to reload and raise hell next year.

I don't understand. Why is there a thread laughing at Cleveland. I know many of you hate Lebron, but the guy played the entire second half and still stuck an incredibly difficult shot to win the game.

One thing that puzzles me. I watched the last 18 minutes of the game, and not once did they feed the ball into the low post to Howard. It was almost as if he was not on the floor. Yet, the Magic still made that comeback.

I started the thread well before the final buzzer when it looked like Orlando was going to steal the game.  But even though Cleveland won, you have to wonder how in the world this has happened to them in two straight games where they've given up 20 point leads.  It's mind boggling to the point of laughter.

And the title of the thread is a reference to an obscure website featuring "LOL cats".  It's really ridiculous and nonsensical.  Much like what's happening to the Cavs in this series.  You do realize they only lost once at home ALL YEAR*, right?
Here's the stupid website: http://www.lolcats.com/



*can't count the 82nd game of the season when LBJ didn't suit up.

Stan VanGundy should have put Petruis on Lebron for that last play.All fourth quarter Petrius played Lebron as well as anyone could play him.He also should have made Rashad Lewis pressure Mo Williams on the ball.He(Lewis)wasn't even a part of the play.Poor defensive stradegy by the Magic on that last play.

Before Lebron caught the ball, I was already worried for Orlando.

I said to myself, "uh-oh, they're not paying attention. They think its over". And then, lo and behold, Lebron, the absolute LAST guy you want touching the ball, catches the rock at the top of the key and pulls up for an open three.

Ballgame.

It is only Orlando's focus and execution down the stretch that holds them back--if they had the ability to close well, they could have beaten us in 5 or 6 games, and they could be up 2-0 on CLE right now.

Yea, right when lebron broke from his spot towards the top, i was swearing, and then he got a clean look and i didnt even have to look no doubt it was going in.

Gortat should have guarded the inbounds with Pietrus on Lebron, made no sense.  They had Lewis on the inbound he should have been in Mo's face he backed off, then watch Pietrus he goes out basically to halfcourt to guard Pavlocic he should have left Pavlocic there and helped on Lebron. Worst of all Hedo is guarding Lebron. One of the stupidest plays I've ever seen.

[waltzero]

I guess you don't want Lebron to have the chance to beat you but that's just asking for a last second layup and ot. Hedo could have put a hand in his eyes at least though sheesh.

Phil Jackson would have ordered a foul, knowing the refs probably would not call it. 'Keep your arms up Hedo and avoid any contact there, but hip bump him' or something like that.

"Notes: The officials missed what should have been a technical foul on Williams in the first quarter for throwing the ball at Howard's back". Don't want to complain about officials but Gortat got called on a horrible blocking foul and then get hits with a techinal. Not only is it a 3 point swing it adds an extra foul to ORL and takes one away from CLE so CLE should be closer to being in the penalty than ORL. Its funny it seems that any chance the officals get to throw a game, they do it every single time. The Mo throwing the ball play wasn't called, you want to know why? because CLE was gaining momentum. None of the charges made any sense.

Gortat got screwed twice by the officials with bogus calls.

F&*^ Cleveland, F$%# LeRoid, F%^& Mike Brown, F$^& MAURICE Williams. That team is so pampered it's disgusting, maybe Pierce can shoot some up, gain 60 lbs of muscle, look 45 when he's 24, then maybe we'll win Stern to our side hurrah!

Wow, the Lebron/Cav hate is ridiculous.

Ill say one thing about Orlando, it looks like their series against Boston really helped them out defensively.  Against Philly they didnt play great Team D, but against boston they had to and now its translating over against cleveland.  (with the exception of that last play)
