    Actually, that letter is kind of creepy. I can understand being pissed, but there's some strange stuff in there.

    Also, it was written in freaking Comic Sans. Really. Have you ever seen http://bancomicsans.com
    Dan Gilbert hasn't!

    Yeah, that is strange. But it's more evidence that the week has been orchestrated from the beginning. How do you not clue in your owner. The least he could have done is to give him a heads up.

    In phoner w/ AP, Gilbert says "People have covered up for [James] for way too long. Tonight we saw who he really is." People like...Gilbert.

    Yeah, Gilbert, it was you who covered up for Lebron James. And no joke, Cavs were running a picture of Delonte West at the top of their site. That's just fucked up. All caps, really?

    This almost, almost makes me feel empathetic to James. But whatever, he still was horrible to Cleveland's fans.

    You left out the best part of the call: Gilbert said Lebron quit on the Cavs in the second round of the playoffs. Which you could argue it sure looked like he did.

    Gilbert says Lebron quit in the last game of the 2009 Orlando series too.
