allonthefield Not too often you see Kevin Garnett posterized. -
Bars & Stripes OK, I'll ask: why doesn't he just do that every time he has the ball? -
jah3000 Because if they crowd the floor and the path to the basket right, he can't always build up the momentum to do that.

Kevin Harlan VIOLATING THIS BROADCAST WITH EXCITEMENT

This is making the rounds on these Internets, but it's worth watching again and again. The only thing that makes an awesome LeBron dunk better? Kevin Harlan going crazy.

Kevin Harlan just co-opted his best description of a dunk to the new kid. And he was absolutely correct. If he busts out "He's got mad cow's disease!", I'm giving up.
James' Jam Punctuates Cleveland's 88-77 Win Over Boston
20 Second Timeout —
It's halfway to deja vu all over again for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Last year, the Cavs lost their first two playoff games against number one seeded Detroit before ripping off four straight wins. This year, the Cavs lost their first two playoff games against number one seeded Boston but now they have bounced back with two home victories, including an 88-77 triumph on Monday. The Celtics dropped to 0-5 on the road in the 2008 playoffs, so there is a lot of pressure on them to win game five in Boston; they certainly don't want to be facing elimination when the series returns to Cleveland on Friday. ...
Celtics Shown Up By LeBron, Punked By LeBron's Mom [Nba Closer]
Deadspin —
The NBA Closer is written by Matt McHale, who's starting to think Tuesday is the new Monday. When he's not wishing he was still chillin' in bed, he can be found rubbing his chin in a thoughtful way at Basketbawful. Enjoy!
Welcome To Cleveland's Roadkill Cafe. Swarming defense, a brutal posterization of the Defensive Player of the Year, a superstar potty mouth, and LeBron's momma ... these were all part of an 88-77 Cavaliers win that had Doc Rivers and his Celtics clicking their ruby slippers together and chanting "There's no place like TD Banknorth ...
Worst of the Night: May 12, 2008
Basketbawful —
The Boston offense: The Celtics shot 38 percent from the field and 3-for-14 from beyond the arc. Now, without doubt, this was in large part due to the Cleveland defense. But...it's also because Doc Rivers' offensive schemes are slow, plodding and predictable. And, as Charles Barkley pointed out after the game, the Celtics walk it up the court -- slowly -- and their main players are all jump shooters, so they rarely get easy baskets. Especially in the late stages of hard-nosed, defensive games. Another big problem is actually a function of Boston's unselfish share-the-ball ...

Ridiculous LeBron James dunk against the Celtics
Hail Mary Jane —
Check out this ridiculous dunk from last nights game by LeBron James. No further words need to be said.
If the Cavs go on to win this series, this will be considered a classic dunk for all time. NBA classic shows will show this 20 years from now. Hell, they’ll probably do it anyway.

Round Two, Game Four, Storm Clouds Gathering
And One —
Right before I headed to the Q with Game Buddy #2, I realized I hadn't brought the mail in. Opened the front door and there was Foul , the Connie Hawkins story, enticingly wrapped in plain pale yellow paper, with a Howard Cosell quote on the cover: A superb book . . . puts to rout forever the propagated notion that sport is a sacred cow and that the only milk it emits is pure. I want to read this book in the name of everyone who has ever tasted sour basketball milk - Seattle; all the fans cheated by Tim Donaghy's self-serving gambling habit, Jim Chones at Clemson; the great Spencer Haywood. I want to read this book in the name of every player ...
The Great Ones Adapt in Real Time: Did only Lebron James and Michael Jordan get the Memo?
The Hoop Doctors —
May 13th, 2008 – Dr. Dime
I will not say Lebron James is struggling offensively. Considering his penetration, passing, positioning, and even just the defensive attention he attracts it makes for good team offense regardless. What I will say is that all series long Lebron James has struggled with his shot.
The only reason his shooting struggles are even a factor for discussion is that Cleveland has never been a very high scoring team, so a drop in Lebron’s point production generally means there is a ton of pressure on the role players and team defense. One of the Cavaliers greatest ...
Ouch, KG, Ouch
Sports Blog - football, basketball, and baseball —
I’ve never been the biggest fan of KG, and this highlight is the perfect argument for why the guy didn’t deserve the NBA Defensive Player of the Year. And if you’re one of those people that say he did deserve it, at least admit it should be taken back now. To give him credit, he at least threw his arms up like a woman protecting herself from a punch, and probably should’ve been whistled for a foul.

Does LeBron Dream About Basketball?
The Dave Burba Revolution —
The Cavaliers have found themselves in a best of 3 series with the Boston Celtics. Last night's win was pretty refreshing. Daniel Gibson and Wally Szczerbiak hit their perimeter shots, Anderson Varejao and company played suffocating 4th quarter defense, and LeBron James did his thing (and according to TNT broadcasters he did it "with no regard for human life", which was something I thought was illegal not only in the NBA but in, you know, real life). I guess LeBron owning a home in Bath, Ohio -- home of super killer Jeffrey Dahmer -- makes a little more sense now. Hey, everyone has their heroes. ...
The 2007-08 Cleveland Cavaliers: A look back
Forest City Fanatics —
With the NBA season wrapped for another year, this seems like a pretty opportune time to take a look back at the Cavs season, highlighting some of their best games and most exciting moments. Sure, the Cavs didn't duplicate their 2007 Eastern Conference championship run, but they did win 45 regular-season games despite holdouts and injury trouble, end another Washington Bullets' season in the first round, and take the eventual NBA champions to 7 games. Let's look at some of the most memorable moments of the year: ...
