Out of all the people at ESPN, he has the least amount of credibility.
I'm glad I watched the game on FSN. Can't stand Mark Jackson. Can't stand JVG. Too many idiots.
JVG is actually one of my new favorite commentators... sure, he's not that intelligent, but he does provide plenty of comic relief.
I don't understand why people here are so sensitive to ESPN commentators. The fact is that Boston and LA have won titles recently. They do deserve credit for that. It is natural for people outside of Cleveland to give those teams the benefit of the doubt. Cleveland never has closed the deal. It's easy enough to say that the Cavs are the best team. They might be. But, they'll have to prove it. Let's face it. Losing to Orlando last year even though they had HCA and a 66-16 record didn't help their perception nationally.

^ Doesn't change my opinion that Jackson is a moron. :chuckles:
