This. During the game, I forgot it was even a wine-out because it was hard to notice on TV.

Your guy Delly.......no words, so proud of him!

I hate two things about this org...
1) Their issue with holding big leads
2 (most importantly)) THE FANS' LACK OF WEARING THE DAMN SHIRTS!!!! The guys behind the bench in neon green and orange should've been kneed in the balls. Put the damn shirt on you fools.

Hate both of these.
As for #2- the T-shirts cause issues literally every game I've been to. Yeah, people don't wear them which is annoying, but what's even worse is the people that go around and take the shirts off the chairs before the game. I have a playoff ticket package, so I sit in the same seats for every game I go to, and the same group of people hide their own shirts in a Team Shop bag, and then say they didn't get one and take shirts off the surrounding empty chairs (before the game has started). I wish they would just give them out at the door to avoid this problem, because it's really distracting and pisses me off every game. Like everyone who paid for a ticket deserves a T-shirt, if they haven't shown up by halftime then I guess the shirts are fair game, but otherwise just be happy with your ONE shirt.

I'm going all in tonight. I have already warned a very attractive female that actually wants to be around me for this that I am going to be "extremely inebriated" and most likely loud and obnoxious by tip off. I've also stocked up on green, which helps

You are living the dream, Buddy. Who are you? Dirk Diggler?

 

[Omar The Horse]

Positive vibes only.

Joe Crawford Mike Callahan Ken Mauer Jason Phillips

Guess there's no avoiding it

Benefit of Crawford is if Draymond tries acting like an idiot which he has done all series, he will be T'd up immediately. and Crawford will give two F's

Feel like this is the JR game we are waiting for...

Cleveland's weather forecast for this evening...

Scattered Thunderstorms with 100% chance of PIPE...

Since people are sharing lucky t-shirt stories...

I have a gold colored Dion Waiters player tee that I didn't touch since he was traded back in January. After the Cavs lost game 1 to Chicago I decided to wear the Waiters player tee for game 2 vs Chicago with the thinking that if a) we lost the game then I was tossing the shirt in the trash, or b) if we win I'll keep it around until we lose a game with me wearing it. I'm not going to be gross and wear it every other game without washing it, but I have worn it 5 times since that game 2 against Chicago, and the Cavs are 5-0 when it's worn, including game 3 on Tuesday.

I'll be at the game tonight and don't want to wear a dirty shirt around downtown all day that probably smells of sweat and beer from my nervousness from the other night, but I will be taking it with me to the game as a rally towel. And if things get tense... it's going on.

If I were to grade this story, I think I'd have to give it an AAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYEEEEEEE.

Not a fan of tonight's refs, Joey Crawford, Mike Callahan and Ken Mauer. Joey Crawford and Mike Callahan went to the same high school as indicted ref Tim Donaghy. Joey Crawford and Ken Mauer are convicted felons, centering around tax evasion. I guess if they are on your side, great, but if not, look out. Crawford (who has been suspended by the NBA) is notorious for extending a series in a game 4, once calling an avalanche of fouls on the team ahead in a series during game 4, resulting in it being extended, so I'm concerned. "I’d also like to point out that LeBron James has has actually fouled out of two playoff losses in games officiated by Crawford, which is actually very significant when you consider the fact that he’s only fouled out of 6 games total for his entire career." - See more at: http://footbasket.com/nba/lebron-james-actual-playoff-record-joey-crawford/#sthash.5eouO7M7.dpuf

"So with that said, here is LeBron James’ actual playoff stats when the games are refereed by Joey Crawford…

95-47 (66%) without Crawford

14-12 (53%) with Joey Crawford"

(This article was printed in May).

Call fouls against LeBron and you affect his game and affect the Cavs.

Start well and I like our chances. .GS were down 2-1 to memphis so they have shown they can come back.

And Tony Allen who had been playing terrific defense was hurt after game 3.
GS did adjust but Allen going out with the hamstring injury was what really did Memphis in.

Going to the game with my dad tonight. So pumped!

Well just got offered a job at the Fed Reserve in downtown Cleveland yesterday! going to celebrate by yet again heading downtown to party and watch the game...hope its even more epic than last time...

Funny you mention this. I just got offered a job I've been waiting to hear from for two months now. Offer was yesterday. I accepted. It's my industry I've been in for 30 years. Making more than ever. Seems large companies still find value in "seasoned" pros. Lol. This has to also mean more good things coming soon starting tonight!

Sure would have felt better if we had finished the blow-out the other night and stomped their souls.

All this talk about how the Warriors could explode at any time, about how David Lee adds a new wrinkle to their offense, about how we are so banged up that Haywood might soon get meaningful minutes - it is very unsettling. There would have been no such talk, if we had just buried them.

They've been talking up the Wariors all series long. Why stop now? They threw dirt on us and we've beat them 2 fucking times. That didn't stop them from talking, why should it stop us from winning?

 

[enigmatic]

I know, I know..

Soon as I wrote that I said to myself. "Well, that's how the next Cleveland Sports Heartbreak is going to go down..."

In all fairness, our teams are KNOWN for epic, unprecedented collapses...
