Cavs Game Thoughts

You can look at once again poor free throw shooting in the 1st half, or Coach McMuffin' poor decision to continue to play zone on sharpshooters Mo Williams and Wally Z, but the thing that stuck out the most for me was the piss-poor job the officials did last night. How many non-calls/favorable calls did Monty Mccutchen and Derrick Stafford give LeBron and the Cavs? And how many non-calls/bad calls did they whistle on the Blazers (i.e. Joel Przybilla's charge taken on LeBron with a no call and then out of the set LBJ hits a three, or any of Jerryd Bayless' fouls)?

I immediately thought that the refs were trying to CTS (Cover the Spread for all you non Sportsbook handicappers). The Cavs were a only giving 1.5 (originally from 1.0 in the mourning) and who wouldn't be all over that? If I were in Vegas, I would have taken the Cavs. One has to wonder if Monty Mccutchen or Derrick Stafford had something in this game as well as I CERTAINLY thought so after watching the Blazers comeback to take a temporary lead in the 4th... Rewatch the 4th if you can stomach it and tell me that this game was rigged...

UNREAL Comeback vs. Detroit

I have to admit, the Blazers deserved to lose the game tonight vs. Detroit. And it was all because of Nate McMuffin'. McMuffin' did everything possible in the 4th to TRY to lose that game. I'm not joking...

A VERY stellar Jerryd Bayless tonight and to not see him in the final 8 minutes or so in the game was unexplainable. Did Nate not see the FIRE and PASSION J-Bay displayed out there? Did Nate not see us turn a 14 point deficit into a lead with J-Bay or is he blind or that moronic?

The fact that McMuffin' tried to sub in an uninspiring Greg Oden during the final minutes of the game with a 2 point lead that eventually turned into a 3 point deficit before resubbing Joel Przybilla back in (probably because somebody in the front row yelled that to him because Nate doesn't normally like to resub Joel for some idiotic reason)...

AND, let's just ignore Travis Outlaw's game winning bucket... If Travis wasn't playing in the 4th quarter at all, the Blazers run away with this one. Just look at the dozen (or more) points he surrendered to Tayshaun Prince and the numerous rebounds he failed to box-out or got out-hustled on... McMuffin', didn't Nicolas Batum's performance vs. Lakers earn him those 4th quarter minutes you gave to Outlaw?? Not to mention Batum is probably the best forward poistion defender on the team that would have a great chance at stopping Prince...

BUT because the Blazers won, the media will praise McMuffin' on the comeback win when all he did was make the game more exciting to (ignorant) fans along with giving me an ulcer and gray hairs, and this will also cover up Outlaw's horrific flaws on anything but his act of taking insanely difficult shots...
