Great game. Denver is tough...I think they are the Cavs toughest match-up in the league. So to go to OT with them without Jamison, i'm happy. If we see Denver again, then I think we have a better than 50/50 shot to win the title. I think we dominate against the East.

I think we don't normally shoot 55% from the line or give up 33? points in the first quarter. There were a lot of pot holes rolling into this game,,,,we hit a few. This is the best team in the league and even better come playoff time with Jamison. Hopefully Mike Brown can find a working rotation. That is the only scarry portion of the trade to me. New rotations and a coach that struggles with that aspect of the game....

Phil Jackson and Doc Rivers are crying about the Jamison trade :lol:

Phil Jackson, Doc Rivers criticize CCavs' deal for Jamison - ESPN Los Angeles

Jackson declined to comment on the Jamison trade when he was asked about it at Thursday's shoot-around, quipping, "I don't care about that," and dodged two more questions about it in his pregame media session before not being able to bite his tongue any longer.
"They're going to get Ilgauskas back and it's going to be one of those scenarios that we see in the NBA where you ship a player out, you get another player, then your player retires or they pay him off and then he comes back in 30 days," Jackson said. "I don't know what that does for the league. I think that's kind of a weird situation."

I bet most coaches would agree with them but you gotta hand it to ESPN for stirring up a little drama by only grabbing the comments from the contenders.

"I have a problem with that," Rivers said before Thursday's Lakers-Celtics game at Staples Center. "I loved it three years ago when we did it with Gary Payton if you remember, but now I think it sucks. I think it's a terrible deal."

Rivers did the same thing and Phil's Lakers trading for Pau was just as bad if not worse. It's kinda like the pot calling the kettle black.

O RLY? :roll2:

All of this coming from the two franchises that have benefited the most from over the last four years from lopsided trades and working the system. For them, this isn't about fairness it's about feeling a threat to their current position. For the media and probably the league office, this is about the audacity of a small-market team plundering the have-nots of the league the same way Boston & LA have been able to. I'm glad Danny Ferry is doing this while the getting's good, but you can bet a move like this won't be possible under the next CBA. The league can't allow any kind of maneuvering that might shift the balance of power outside of Boston, New York, Chicago or LA. Heaven knows some of those teams are having enough trouble as it is.

I thought so too. That was the main reason i didn't link his comments. Most people would probably respond similarly to how both Phil and Doc did but it's still fun to make fun of them anyway. :evil:

I think this is a classic case of the media cherry picking the story to get a reaction.

He was joking, until the part where he said he wasn't:

"I actually do have a problem with that though. We did it, and I'm joking, but I do think [it's a problem]. I don't know what you do [maybe] just not allow them to go back to the same team or whatever. ... I do think that will be changed eventually, but I do have a problem with it."

I am going to stop complaining about officiating.

Apparently they all fucking suck.

That call on Shaq was bullshit, and the call on the other end of the court right after was even more.

NBA refs = worthless steaming piles of retarded corrupt shit.

There.
