All of this being said about LeBron getting booed against the Wizards really makes me mad at Cleveland “fans”. This is the first time since Jim Brown played for the Browns in the 60s that someone of this magnitude has played on one of our teams. I can guarantee you that the people booing didn’t even know who the Cavs were until LeBron started playing for them. Anyone who has been a Cavs fan for the long haul would never do anything like that. I never booed Price, Daugherty, Nance, Hot Rod, or even Craig Ehlo for that matter, so I’m sure as hell not going to boo LeBron. Now I know that none of those other guys were supposed to be the second coming, but people have to remember that LeBron is 21, in his 3rd season, and still doesn’t have a whole lot of talent around him that isn’t Lithuanian (and even he falters when he gets cracked on the head or played physically in general). If these spoiled bastards ruin this and run him out of town they could end up swimming in the Cuyahoga. If the Cavs can hold the ship and make the playoffs and get cousin Larry back and get Drew Gooden to at least partially pull his head out of his ass (his numbers are down across the board this season, and I thought it was hilarious how Hubie Brown refused to talk about him during Sunday’s broadcast. Hubie obviously knows Drew well) they’ll be all right.

Job number one in the off-season should be to get a real point guard. Meaning someone who can both pass and at least be a threat to score. Jeff McInnis may have been crazy and a little bit of a loose cannon but at least he was good for 12-14 per night.

I read a scouting report on Kevin Pittsnogle a couple of weeks ago. It said he might get selected in the 2nd round or end up with someone as a free agent. The case that was made for this is because of his lack of a post game and weak defense. Forget about his quick release and ability to shoot from the outside. If Pittsnogle’s name was say Vladimir Nostrolovic wouldn’t he be a lottery selection? His game is pure European, but for some reason that has never been mention. The fact that the guy can rain from deep will get him into the league.
I made the comment a couple of months back that I could see Rasheed Wallace turning into Sam Perkins by the time his career is over. I’m retracting that now. After seeing Rasheed break open Z’s head Sunday and then get booed mercilessly Monday night in Cleveland it made me think of a former Piston, Bill Laimbeer. Laimbeer was the baddest of the bad boys and was always in the opponent’s head (I would say that this is where Rodman picked up the physiological part of his game from) but was a force on defense, on the boards, and could hit from deep. I remember going to a Cavs game with my dad at the old Richfield Coliseum probably in like 91 or 92. Every time Laimbeer touched the ball he was booed, including by my dad. But he just seemed to feed off of it. ‘Sheed has the same capabilities, I just don’t think that he showcases it all of the time the way Laimbeer did.
