To be honest I don't think Phil wants anything to do with CHI anymore. Like peaceful said, wades comments about loyalty will way heavy on LBJ's mind. And if he never wins in CHI look out!

We should all be glad the organization doesn't act the same way fans do... seriously, I was just about to post a link to a fire van gundy thread. Anyway, Miller4prez I'm not saying that it's going to happen or I want him to be fired. I'm not even a Magic fan, All I'm saying is that coaches have been fired for underachieving. And both teams have been good for the last two years. MB even has a coach of the year award under his belt (deserving or not) As for ButterMilk believe me I agree with you. I also remember that during the season after they won the championship Shaq and Wade went down with injuries and the Heat went on a huge losing streak. At that same time Riley took some time off for personal reasons...coincidence? Get real.

And the Cavs have been a 50 win team since MB has come here. MB still got the pink slip! Totally difference circumstances and you know it. The Cavs had the best record in the NBA the last two years and failed to even get to the Finals. SVG and the Magic over exceeded their expectations last year by getting to the Finals when nobody thought we could beat Boston and Cleveland. SVG should not be fired over one series. Mike Brown was fired because he failed multiple times. different circumstances? Sounds similar to me. Cavs made it to the finals too. Remember that? (waits for typical magic fan comment about the sweep) when nobody thought they could beat Detroit. Now the magic are Facing elimination in the ECF after reaching the finals the year before. The series isn't over yet and the Magic still can come back but I'm just saying that SVG could be fired and the circumstances are more similar than you're making them. I mean SVG was fired from Miami after he turned the team around, I thought that was BS, but it happened.

is van gundy next?

with how many times there owner has been linked to prostitutes I'm thinking Pimps or even better the Brooklyn fishNETS.

I actually went to games when Lamond Murry was in our starting lineup. But I've noticed on this board you guys hate on "everybody". So I guess you don't discriminate.

So when do the Celtic hate threads start? KG? Rondo? Pierce? and that pic is hilarious.

has there ever been a team to sweep 2 rounds only to be swept in the 3rd round.

I think for right now the magic number should be 1. If not they'll never hear the end of it.

well howard was imitating james before games. Now he's imitating his play against Boston also. I just find it hard to believe that he hasn't learned better post moves from Ewing. Maybe this guys ceiling really isn't as High as I once thought. As for the Cs man they are balling out of control right now. Finals here they come, unless the magic make one of the best comebacks in history. It's doable but doubtful.

I think Riley is a snake. Stan Van did a good job coaching the Heat. Even made it kind of deep in the playoffs that year. Then when they get Shaq he gets fired and riley takes over the team to coach them to a championship. What pissed me off more was when Shaq and Wade got hurt the next year...riley did also mysteriously. I think it was do to the fact that he was losing games without his star players and didn't want to coach a loser especially when the heat went like 15-67 The guy is a reDICK!

no doubt it was Pierce. Not only faking like he got shot, being carried off the court holding his knee, being put in a will chair, getting it wrapped up, then limping returning to the game, hits a three and jumps up and down like nothing happen. Then in the press conference say that he didn't think he was that hurt but yet he got carried off and put in a wheelchair. That is the worst acting I've ever seen and I couldn't believe the media was talking about it like it was legit, "OH MY PIERCE IS A WARRIOR" - Mark Jackson. Give me a break. Acting like he's hurt is his specialty. Along with VC,Lebron and Kobe, But Pierce is the worst of them all

I can't stand Cavs4life06!

wades a beast today, but is there going to be a thread about how much of a dbag he is after he makes a big shot on here? I'm kind of curious to see how this plays out.

he recovers as fast as Pierce/lebron/Carter.

I'd say that's some serious motivation. Good to see Steph Floss getting some recognition in ORL. He's a Cleveland Local DJ/ DJ at the "Q"

^ /discussion

Reminds me of the Cleveland games in Detroit last year, but MIA fans do show up late though!

I guess I should have said, "speaking of extra noises" instead of "speaking of noise makers" my bad. when's the last time you've been to the Q? Or did you read that somewhere? Also I'm pretty sure Cleveland doesn't pretend to have the loudest arena especially with the likes of Golden State/OKC/Portland in the league. It is loud in the Q but not like those arenas. As for the DE FENSE DE FENSE all it is, is a computer voice, no biggie there the crowd at the q barley chants the defense cheer but it's the loudest when the 4th quarter starts or at the beginning of the game

I would bet a paycheck that if the Cavs had formed a pregame dancing circle complete with impromptu dunk contest, there would be a thread created on this forum within minutes. My money is safer on this bet than it would be in a bank vault. LMAO so true I just came from that "WINK" thread and boy oh boy if that isn't the dumbest thread I've seen on here. The video of the Magic dancing had me cracking up though. The "air pump" move was great. Good laughs in that vid. BTW this is just a case of "hate it when it's another team, love it when it ours" You can say, "it's before the game" all you want but Emory889 is spot on here.

MIA has shown no signs of life in the first two games. After a loss like that they have nothing else to do but bounce back. I think they'll win game 3 at home but not by much.

I honestly could not even tell they were there. Every basket brought on cheers and claps and as soon as the other team inbounded the ball, they were silent. The Q uses too much fake noises to make it seem louder than it actually is. For example the DEFENSE chant. Maybe the Q is louder but I'm just pointing out the fake extra noises they like to use. speaking of noise makers what are those things that they hand out in ORL arena?

yeah they are in a league of their own. When NOLA played in OKC and I seen how pumped they were, I was thinking man they need a team. However I didn't expect them to steal the Sonics away though. Horrible for the city of Seattle, good for OKC!

His actually pretty good at 3's 32 percent is borderline mediocre. yeah Jamrio hasn't shot it well the whole season. He just finally started to get hot at the end of the year. As for the goosey sign that he holds up that's just a CAVS thing they started doing in practice because of the way he holds his hand of the follow through. It's just a team thing no need to get all worked up over it.
