Wiz-Cavs III: Caron Decides to Rise Up
Published 5/1/2008 by Jamie Mottram at Mr. Irrelevant
... Caron can be the alpha male he really is. At least two stats support this claim: 1) Washington went 33-25 this season with Butler (a 47-win pace), and 10-14 without (a 34-win pace). 2) In the first four games of Wiz-Cavs III, while deferring to Gil, Caron averaged 16 and 4 as the Wiz went 1-3. In the fifth game, with Arenas looking on, he went off for 32, 9 and one helluva game-winner. It was a beauty of a game, filled with tension from Songalia’s “punch” (please) to LeBron’s missed buzzer-beater, ...

One Down, Two to Go

... Darius Songalia did not punch Lebron either even though on TNT's angle it appears that way. I was watching the local DC Comcast and they had another camera angle, which it clearly shows Lebron's arm was hooked inside Darius' arm. Lebron pulled his arm out, causing Darius's hand to fly towards him. I hope the NBA sees the real angle and does not rely solely on TNT's shot for future punishment. ...

YouTube of the Day: Songalia and LeBron get tangled up
Published 5/1/2008 at Ball Don't Lie
... ? Um, no. This is completely accidental. They get tangled up, LeBron tries to free his arm, Darius Songalia flails a bit, and pop — an inadvertent arm and hand to the LBJ's cheek. That's it. A punch? Give me a freakin' Kit-Kat. ...

LeBron James Punches Himself In His Face - Gets A Wizard Suspended
Published 5/2/2008 by Beast Mode at Beast Mode
... Now technically he did not punch himself in the face, but I was pretty much LeBron’s arm flail that caused the punch to the face, and the suits in the NBA office were too dumb and or purposely ignored that fact.  After all, they don’t want to have LeBron James complaining about the physical play again.  Ill let you examine the video for yourself (Thanks To Odenized)(A great screen by screen show over at BulletsForever): Maybe this is because I am a Bulls fan, but LeBron has been acting like a little girl this ...

Darius Songaila Suspended for Game 6
Well, who is going to allegedly punch or not punch LeBron James now? Darius Songaila is being suspended because his hand hit LeBron's face in Game 5 of the Wizards - Cavaliers series. I use that phrasing because depending on who you listen to, Songaila didn't mean to slap/hit James at all. Of course, usually those people are Wizards fans. I watched it go down and saw it several times on ...
