[Moe.]

Wizards fans hate the Cavs more than anyone.

Why?

How could you forget the best rivalry in all of sports during the late-aughts?

I can't believe how damn condescending some of you can be.

It's pretty disappointing. I get you may think my opinions on this sport are nuts....but believe it or not I have been watching this game probably as long as all of you and understand the game quite well. You may not agree with some of my opinions but ### #### people...do you have to be so freaking rude about it? It's not like I am a Johnny come lately in this community.

But.....if you really can't stand reading my posts. Please..put me on ignore because I have plenty on my ignore list. It's a beautiful feature. If not...give me a break. It could be worse. I could be a flat out #######....which you know I am not.

It's just a little much, is all Wizards fans hate the Cavs more than anyone. We're busting out stuff like this at the moment. And even I think you're being a little over the top.

By "best" they mean the best backcourt behind Lowry and Derozan, right?

tl;dr

Short version: He's asking you to put him on ignore.

Would rather mock, thanks though.

Wizards fans hate the Cavs more than anyone.

Why?

The only other time the Wizards were worthwhile in the last 20 years or so (peak Arenas era) the Cavs eliminated them in the playoffs three years in a row. The "rivalry" included such gems as LeBron whispering in Arenas' ear before he missed huge FTs at the end of a playoff game, a bizarre feud with DeShawn Stevenson that managed to include Jay-Z and Soulja Boy, the crab dribble game, "Crybaby 23" t-shirts that triggered a Cleveland area Papa John's boycott, and lots of other hilarious stuff.

That was an all time NBA classic.

 

[Spartans Rule]

Enough about the best backcourts. Can anyone challenge the Pistons for worst?

Brandon Jennings alone should be enough to win this thing, but then you've also got KCP playing 39 minutes per game at the 2 with a 3.8 PER.

If you want to broaden it to guard rotation, I submit the Ramon Sessions/Ben McLemore/Nik Stauskas three headed monster (Collison has actually been good so far).

Lakers? Lin and Kobe are pretty horrific.

Indy? Sloan and Stuckey :X

There are a lot of bad backcourts these days. The Pacers, Philly, and Lakers should also be in the conversation. Oh look those are arguably the 4 worst teams so far.

 

[Cliff Clavin]

Chuck Hayes has a -11.6 PER in 19 minutes

 

[Spartans Rule]

I submit the Ramon Sessions/Ben McLemore/Nik Stauskas three headed monster

HFS. Current PER for these 3:

Sessions -0.1

McLemore 0.7

Stauskas 0.8

I'm not sure what's more amazing: those numbers, or that the Kings are 3-1 in spite of them.

Yeah, but Collison's been really good.

Come on I am not going over the top. Just making some observations. Tobias, My point on Windhorst's article was I thought he was being absurd in even suggesting Lebron was not playing to really win by being passive, sitting at the end of the bench, staying out of the offense in the second half etc. I think he is being crazy and reaching already.

That's all.

And yeah I am embellishing a bit on the Cav's early season stumbles....but come on now. When Miami struggled early in 10/11 the sky was falling in the national media, Spo is going to be fired blah blah...you know the drill.

Those 2 are scary good. I have a man crush on Derozan.

If you guys would quit quoting him I can have an NBA thread where I don't know about him. That's a close second to having a secrete NBA thread that he doesn't know about.

He has you on ignore. When other people quote your posts, like I am doing right now, he can still see them.

I liked the inclusion of Rose in his early MVP candidates, too. Rose has played 46 minutes this season.

EJ for MVP.

This thread makes me long for the days of subtitles under threads. The digs at Kobe are just not as fun without them.

Most people hated the Hea't and rooted against them. I sense you are the head honcho of a much smaller gang rooting very hard against the Cavs.

 

[mcintyre1]

Nets cold as ice and Wolves getting hot.

 

[Chemical X]

but are The nets willing to sacrifice?

 

[No. 16]

#### my life. US Airways botched my connecting flight from Austin to Phoenix and now I'm going to miss the Dubs vs Clips.

 

[scoobus]

Waiters off the bench. Marion to start.

 

[mcintyre1]

Early still, but this could be a breakout game for Wiggins. Creating space and making shots through contact, usual solid defensive play.

 

[mcintyre1]

Definitely needs to settle down on FT's though.

 

[saintfool]

https://twitter.com/MagicJohnson

He just listed the entire 2014 all star team as potential and/or likely MVP.

 

[Bobcat10]

Waiters off the bench. Marion to start.

I think this was coming at some point, but the Dellavedova injury probably sped it up.

 

[Britney Spears]

How can I fast forward to the next game?

 

[Synthesizer]

The final 45 seconds of the Det-NY game took 21 minutes to complete. It featured 1 made basket, 3 replays, and at least 5 or 6 timeouts. It was FANtastic.

 

[Christo]

Da Bulls!

 

[Abraham]

The cavs internal D is atrocious. Kevin love can't guard anyone.

 

[SoBeDad]

The Heat lost for the first time in 16 games to the Hornet. The Lebron effect.The Heat will be better when Andersen and Haslem return and give them some toughness in the middle. I'm not sure what to expect from Granger, but Lebron's boy Shabazz has made a quantum leap from preseason. He's looking like a real PG.

 

[Kev4029]

The Nuggets are really bad at basketball.

 

[Raider Nation]

Did the Pacers really just draw up a play for Hibbert to win the game in OT with a 3-pointer?

 

[sports_fan]

cavs have 4 assists in the 4th quarter. lebron leading the team with 2. how is that even possible?

 

[sports_fan]

https://vine.co/v/OeO7OxawvMd

lol

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

Derrick Favors=oof.

 

[tommyGunZ]

Boogie with 26 & 9 at the half.

 

[rodg12]

LeBron with the heroics to tie it. Then Hayward with the winner.

 

[No. 16]

Anyone watching the Dubs vs Clips? Is the 50 to 31 lead legit?
