Watch LeBron and the Cavs dance on their flight home after their series win

Big win for the good guys last night so it’s nice to see them let off a little steam after a tough, grueling series. Kinda upset they didn’t let Delly show his moves but w/e. We’ll have more in the Game Tape later today.

This was posted on JR Smith’s Instagram and there’s a good chance once LeBron hears about it that it’ll be deleted. (luckily I saved the video)

Quick. Let’s play “What are they thinking”

Mozgov- “That’s not how we dance in Mother Russia… I wonder what my favorite bartender is up to right now…”

Joe Harris- “Played a lil bit tonight. Gotta make sure I hydrate with this Bud Light.” (he’s drinking Bud Light, right?)

GM David Griffin- “This damn guy dancing like a maniac in the middle of the aisle was the reason I was voted 2nd best executive in the NBA this season. SMH. God dammit I hope no one sees me on this video.”

LeBron- “This is my fifth straight Eastern Conference Finals. Yawn.”

Is Taj Gibson the biggest crybaby wimp in the NBA?

Play this before reading the ensuing quote:

“That’s what happens when you’re in Cleveland,” Gibson said. “It’s the second time in a row that they threw stuff at us. It’s classless. We’re just here to play basketball. I can’t focus on that kind of stuff.”

– Taj “Hardcore” Gibson

WAAAAAAAH!!!! WAAAAAAH!!! WAAAAAAH!!! THE BIG BAD CLEVELAND FANS THREW SOMETHING AT ME!!! WAAAHHH!!!!!

Good thing Taj wasn’t hurt though. Can you imagine being hit with a hard object after you were just ejected for kicking a player on the home team in an emotional playoff game? Man. That’d be awful. We really have to be thankful that the hard object didn’t hit him in the head and cause extensive damage… Phew. He’s lucky he didn’t get knocked unconscious. I mean this was just a terrible and heinous crime. Bottlegate x 100.

Wait a second. I thought Taj was in clear and imminent danger as he was being escorted off of the court? I thought those “classless” Cleveland fans were tossing beers/batteries/dog biscuits at him and really letting him have it…

Nah.

They weren’t.

Just one single 100% cotton towel rained down from the rafters at Quicken Loans Arena. You know the towels… About 18X12 inches. Made in China. Soft. Fluffy. White. Maybe about 4 ounces… So basically a murderous weapon.

Taj can’t be serious, can he? THAT’S what he considers “classless?”

Now I get it. Aside from hat tricks in hockey, people that throw things onto the field of play are generally assholes. And that’s fine. I’m not going to sit in my Ivory Tower and chastise people who throw things onto court/field/diamond. You see the name of this website? Without the drunk Browns fans chucking bottles of booze after referees made an officiating blunder in 2001, we wouldn’t be on this here Internet today… But to call an entire city of people “classless” for ONE COTTON TOWEL may be the most ridiculous thing an NBA player has ever done… and I suffered through two seasons of watching Dion Waiters.


Quick. Let’s play a game. Who’s tougher: Taj Gibson or my almost 2 year old dog Bodhi?

You know what Bodhi did after that? He didn’t call me “classless” and whine to the media. He smiled at me with his tail wagging. Then he turned his head around and licked his ass because being hit by a towel is basically the same feeling as a mild gust of wind.

I think it’s safe to say Taj would not have fared well in the WCW (this is an amazing clip)

Cavs v Bulls Wednesday Game Tape; One more. Just one more.

No one ever said it was going to be easy. After blowing a huge fourth quarter lead the Cavs were able to hang on and beat the Bulls 106-101. LeBron had 38, 12 & 6 and ZERO TURNOVERS; Kyrie added 25 playing on 1/2 of a leg; Shumpert and JR combined for 25 points; Tristan Thompson did his thing on the offensive glass per usual; Taj Gibson cried; and Delly clamped down the most vicious leg lock that’s ever been seen on this side of the Mississippi

One more. All we need is one more.

Let’s look at the game tape

Remember when Joakim Noah had the most basic 2 handed dunk ever and acted like it was a between the legs windmill tomahawk slam? Good times. God I hate his face.

Tristan got conked right in the noggin and then D-Rose picked up the ball and scooped it in. Poor TT.

Joe Thomas made an appearance and was looking dapper as fuck

And he went HAM when he was pumping up the crowd

If I’ve said it once I’ve said it a thousand times- NOTHING and I mean NOTHING is funnier than when Joakim Noah has a basketball in his hands

It’s laughable that teams haven’t learned to not foul LeBron when he does this

#PipeDunk

#CrewLove and skinny pants

This shit right here gave me flashbacks to game 3 and the Bulls hitting lucky ass shots

Man, I love Delly. Just buzzes and buzzes around your face like a mosquito until you’re forced to swat (kick) at him.

Good job, Matty! You old sailor you!

Taj got ejected and some Cleveland hero decided to toss him a very meaningful and heartfelt parting gift

I specifically screamed “NOOOOOOYESSSSSSS!!!!” after this shot. If he starts making threes on a consistent basis (big IF right now) it’s going to be dangerous

LeBron Chasedown: Activated

Cavs win. *Exhale*

Couple quick thoughts:

– Kyrie Irving is a god damn warrior. Playing on 2 nub legs and he’s still able to drop 25 AND outplay Derrick Rose. Unreal, man. The guy has balls of steel. I’ve gained A TON of respect for Kyrie the more this series has gone on.

– Chuck Booms being on Twitter and being unfiltered is just the absolute best (this tweet was comparing Nikola Mirotic and King Leonidas.

He kinda nailed it too tbh

– Posted this pic last night and people WERE NOT a fan of these two kids. The Twitter followers spewed lots of venom their way. Consider this a life lesson to little Timmy and Tommy- When you grow up people will hate your guts if you’re a bandwagon fan.

– NO MORE THIRTY POINT FOURTH QUARTERS ALLOWED BY THE DEFENSE FROM HERE ON OUT, K?

– If I’m a Bulls fan it really chaps my ass to see Kyrie Irving out there lighting it up on a half a leg while Pau Gasol sits on the bench in street clothes because he has a tight hammy. Pau, it’s the playoffs, everyone is hurt.

– Jimmy Butler hitting 3 point shots with under 1 minute in the fourth quarter will haunt me for years to come.

-Mike’s hot take gameplan to win game 6 in Chicago: Limit the open shots taken by Derrick Rose, Jimmy Butler and Mike fucking Dunleavy. Think I just earned myself a spot on the Cavs coaching staff.

– LeBron and I had the same exact reaction when we found out that he had zero turnovers last night

– How about Taj Gibson bitching because he got one of those rally towels thrown at him after he was ejected. A TOWEL. #PrayForTaj

-If you compare Delly’s little leg clamp to Kelly Olynyk maliciously ripping Kevin Love’s shoulder off of his body then you’re a god damn moron. Oh weird, that’s exactly what Mike Dunleavy did.

– It’d be great if the Cavs can close out this series on Thursday. This team needs all the rest and recovery they can get.

– Sucks that LeBron isn’t as explosive as he used to be.

– I’ve officially transferred all my hate from Joakim Noah into Mike Dunleavy. Joakim is so irrelevant right now it just makes no sense to put that much effort into despising him.

See you guys on Thursday.

Cavs in 6.
