Don't think you can discuss a game against the Cavs without bringing up the officiating. Most of their games resemble WWE matches, in terms of being so ridiculously biased, corrupt and unfair because of David Stern's crush on Lebron. In disputing this claim, Cavs fans often say that most stars in the NBA get calls like Queen James does. While true to a certain extent (no one gets nearly as many calls as he does), the difference is that this bias extends to the entire Cavs team. Every rebound an opponent gets, Varejao slaps their arms a couple times right away, and it's never called. He and Z are constantly over the back, but it's never called. And if any player for the Cavs attempts to take a charge, they get the call, no matter what. If you put Varejao and/or Z on Charlotte's team, they wouldn't last 5 minutes without fouling out. Those guys are both garbage, but only look decent because they play for the Cavs.
If the officiating is even close to legit tonight, and we get a few role players to step up, I like our chances. The Garden should be rockin...it'd be a huge psychological advantage to beat them without KG.
I will make one guarantee for tonight's game. If we win, Stuart Scott will be sobbing uncontrollably all night long. I'm so sick of ESPN's disgusting lovefest with the Cavs and Queen James. You'd think THEY were defending champs, not us...let's do this!
