With The 1st & 4th Pick.............


Derrick Williams is exactly what the Cavs need. A long, athletic PF or SF that can shoot tthe ball and score from anywhere on the court. His defense is better then avg and the Cavs have depth at point guard. I like Kyrie Irving a lot being that im a loyal Duke fan, but on this current team im not sure if hes the answer. After only playing 11 games of college basketball he showed flashes of what he can do when healthy. He can get to the rack and his vision as a PG is incredible. As the Cavs stand right now they have Baron Davis and Ramon Sessions that cant very well hold down the PG position. As much as i like Irving I like Brandon Knight out of Kentucky a lot better! This kid has "IT". The toughness this kid showed in the NCAA tournament was crazy. In 2 straight games he hit game winners against Princeton and Ohio State in games he fought through a tough slump to end the game strong for his team. When its all said and done Irving, Williams and Knight will all be good pros but if im the Cavs im taking Derrick Williams 1st overall and Brandon Knight 4th overall..............

Melo-dy..........Denver State Of Mind

Carmelo Anthony got his wish and is playing in the greatest basketball arena in the NBA, Madison Square Garden. All summer we had to hear how bad you wanted to play for New York. In 18 games since Denver traded you to the Knicks have been avg at best. You made the playoffs yes, but I credit that to Amar'e Stoudemire. In your first playoff game as a Knick you managed to pick up 2 fouls in 5 minutes. Rough start aye? I'd say so. You poured in 15 pointS, 5-18 peformance that would make any Knick fan sick. People outside of Denver over the years have called you a ball stopper. Your 2-8 shooting from 3pt land proves that. Then with the game on the line and down by 2, you took a 28 foot 3pt shot. Not the smartest play ever but far from the dumbest. You played like LeQuit played in the Boston series last year. NO HEART. You had no "swag" or did you leave that Melo in Denver? I know you will bounce back in Game 2, but this wasnt the "State Of Mind" New York wanted to be in after Game 1................

Was It Worth It............

Every since Coach Jim Tressle took over as head coach of The Ohio State University he has put in a system to where his players can have success on and off the field. To always own up to your mistakes and move on, to have credibility. Tressle holding back violations from OSU is a major infraction of NCAA rules. Tressle put wins in front of the truth and now he has to pay. Tressle has always done the right thing for the most part. I always wanted Coach to take more risk, to be the bad guy and run the score up. Not take risk off the field that could effect the University forever. Now the blame can be spread in multiple directions from Pryor and Posey to the head offcials at OSU. Pryor was held as the most highly recruited high school player in recent memory. Pryor's talent was undoubtedly speacial, nobody with that size and speed has come to OSU in the last five years. Pryor won a lot of games racking up a 31-4 record. When does respect and countability come in to play? He was held to a higher standard and failed horribly. Tressle and Pryor both let down the fans of OSU in a way that we all will feel from the NCAA in a few months. The violations they broke will effect the program for years to come from Bowl bans to loss of scholorship. You have to ask yourself one question......was it worth it?

Angry Cavs Fan....112-57


Dear Dan Gilbert,

Hey how you doing man? I'm sure your waking up on this snowy morning in Cleveland wondering how your team just lost by 55 points to the LA Lakers. As a fan of this team for many years I will tell you I have NEVER been this embarrassed to be a Cavs fan. It makes Rickey Davis shot at the wrong rim to get a triple double look like we won the championship. You remember LeQuit? The guy you accused of quitting last year? Is it safe for me to say your following his path by quitting on the city of Cleveland? You have the worst record in the league and not to mention we lost by 55 points !!!!! We have become the laughing stock of the NBA and you have done nothing to change that. Where's the angry letter to the current players now? Where's the fire you showed when LeQuit left town? Or maybe your in Europe with Al Lerner and Larry Dolan watching your franchise lose!!! Those owners allow their teams to lose 100+ and 10+ plus games a year. You promised a championship before Miami wins one, and i ask you with what team? The Cavs couldn't beat a local high school boys team in basketball right now. Ill remember this date January 11, 2011 as the day the Cavs quit and lost by 55. Jamison and Mo Williams are suppose to be the veterans of the team and they look like little school girls out on the court. The Lakers tossed in 3 point shot after 3 point shot, half court shots and even had time to throw a alley-opp off the glass! The most disrespectful thing i have seen in a basketball game in a while! Dan Gilbert you are a hands on owner and a respected owner in this league. As a fan I'm telling you to fix it or your arena will be empty........

Sincerly, A angry Cavs fan
