I'll take a stab at this one...the reason this section of the board does not get alot of posts is....Cleveland is a Browns town. They are far and away the most popular team in town, no matter how they play. The Browns, and to an extent the Tribe, are more popular than the Cavs, so this is the main reason why there are not many posts in here.
Besides NBA basketball is usually pretty boring and brutal to watch. I'll take a Browns or Indians game, over the Cavs any day of the week.

Oh I know I was born and breed there....34 years spent there. I just found it curious since they are in the playoffs.

I think I don't like this team. Not personally... I just don't think I believe in it. When you don't win a game at home to close out a series... with a 5 point lead with a minute and change left... against the Wizards minus Arenas... it's just not good.

Lebron is an amazing player, but he's very early in his development as a "great one" to be a one man team. I'd much rather entrust Kobe, frankly, because he's a shooter. Lebron just isn't good enough from 15 out to be settling for threes late in a game.

Like most people, I like Boobie, Delonte, and Z... and that's about it. I agree with the PD dude who said Wally looks like an expiring contract to move next March... and that's it. Ben Wallace is a shadow of his former self and the kind of heinous offensive liability I just don't believe in. I'm not surprised Mike Browns likes him. Brown fantasizes about 80-74 wins in the playoffs.

We'll absolutely need a new starter at the two and you'd love to see Boobie become the starting point guard because he can shoot. And on this team, where the ball goes through Lebron, does it really matter that he isn't a classic pass first guy?

I think we'll draft a banger who doesn't also bang his shots, like Andy and Ben. A guy who can muscle up but also make a shot. I think we'll look to get a Michael Redd at the 2.

To be honest....with 2 minutes to go in the playoff...Lebron took two really bad 3 point shots when absolutely zero need for them but what ticks me off most was LBJ standing around not going after rebounds or attempting Blocks....He will never be close to Jordon IMO....just doesn't have the Defense or point blank effort on that side of the ball. with 2 min left in the playoff game...wtf LBJ?

LeBron's defense on the last play for the Wizards, where Butler scored the go ahead bucket, was horrible. Instead of playing good D and putting a hand in his face to make him shoot a tough shot, LeBron tried to strip the ball away and missed, allowing Butler to get off an easier shot than he should have.

He stands around more than anybody
