... . If there wasn t a James-Stevenson rivalry, there is now. Yesterday, Washington Post Insider Michael Carter and Ivan Lee reported that Jay-Z , a James backer, wrote a diss record about the Wizards two-guard and had it played it in a Washington nightspot. So 99 problems is involved. Forget Jim Jones. And forget that Jay-Z is a minority owner of the Nets. Jigga Man wants Stevenson.

Jamison and Haywood both played admirably offensively, but provided no resistance as Cleveland grabbed all the offensive rebounds they needed.
