LeBron James Causes Earthquake in Cleveland
Published 4/19/2008 by Will Brinson at FanHouse
Filed under: Cavaliers, Wizards, Eastern, NBA Playoffs, NBA Videos, ClevelandThis is not the "I can't feel my face" dunk that LeBron James pulled on DeShawn Stevenson. However, this is a rim shattering, four-feet-behind-the-rim, alley oop thunder dunk that nearly makes LeBron break his own ankles when he lands. Just sickner. Throw it down big man! The odd thing about this game was that even though LeBron went off, the Wizards really should have won. Except the NBA counts the fourth quarter when they keep score. This one we might just call "The ...

What a great day
Published 4/19/2008 by PostmanE at The Postmen // A Sports Blog // Chicago, IL.
The Cubs beat Pittsburgh’s brains in (sorry, Lack), the Panera chicken noodle bread bowl was especially on point, and now the above: an absolutely disgusting, monstrous dunk from LeBron James. There is, like, one person in the world who can do that. And he just did. (Video HT: Brinson at TSB.) Oh, and let’s not forget Suns-Spurs, which just finished up, and which was pretty much everything we can expect from this series. A tactical battle, a couple of overtimes, egregious flopping, a Manu Ginobili game-winning drive, and a bullshit Tim Duncan three that kept the ...

LeBron, Cavaliers 80% there
Published 4/20/2008 by Rick at WaitingForNextYear
During the game we were beat over the head with this statistic- the team that wins game one has won 80% of the first round match-ups. So this one is in the bag right? ( Wow. That looks dumber than it sounded.) thedunk2.jpg The Cavaliers earned a hard fought (pun intended) game one victory on Sunday. All the headlines coming into this one were on the verbal war that has gone on between DeShawn Stevenson, Gilbert Arenas, LeBron James and Charles Barkley. (Has does Barkley get his name in these conversations?) But the headlines after this one are about the physical war that took place on the court. In Bull Durham, Nuke once said he wanted to announce his presence ...

Well Done is Better Than Well Said: Cavs Silence Wizards, 93-86

David Friedman posted 4/20/2008 from 20secondtimeout.blogspot.com

The Washington Wizards talked trash, delivered hard fouls and muscled their way to an 11 point first half lead--but the Cleveland Cavaliers had the last word because they have LeBron James and the Wizards don't. James scored a game-high 32 points on 12-19 field goal shooting, leading the Cavs to a 93-86 game one victory at Quicken Loans Arena.

Focused Cavs Rout Undisciplined Wizards, 116-86

The Washington Wizards made good on their vow to repeatedly hit LeBron James but James and his Cleveland Cavaliers kept their composure and hit back where it counts the most: the scoreboard. Cleveland's 116-86 game two victory exposed the Wizards to be a team that--in the words of their coach, Eddie Jordan--lacks "intensity, discipline and organization."

LeBron Overrated, Rated Over Gilbert Arenas [NBA Playoffs]
