    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Cavaliers coach Paul Silas apologized Wednesday for a derogatory comment he made about Utah forward Carlos Boozer following practice earlier this week.

    Silas made the remark to reporters Monday, one day before Boozer was due to make his long-awaited return to Gund Arena after leaving the Cavaliers as a free agent last summer. Boozer, though, didn't travel with the Jazz because of a foot injury.

    "It was totally inappropriate," Silas said before Wednesday's game in Milwaukee. "It shouldn't have happened. I apologize for it."</div>

    Yeah well.............He also called Boozer on the phone and talked to him directly, but what the hell good does that do?

    That won't repair the additional damage done to Carlos on top of all the character assasination already out there.

    There'll be a day of reckoning and restitution. There's nothing new under the sun. What goes around, comes around. The place to answer all this crap is on the court. Boozer has a monumental task ahead, but I'm sure he's up to it. I believe in this kid, and I'm sure he'll get it done!

    A lousey 10 thousand bucks and "the matter is behind us."

    When the aftermath of this thing will take on a life of it's own and live on to continue to cause hurt for years.

    The Cavs Front Office has just copped out!

    When Cleveland's own newspaper pissed on Silas' shoes, you gotta know, he's taken a hit!

    Quadruple Posts, wow, that has to be a record.

    But anyways, do you think his firing had anything to do with what he said about Boozer? Or did Cleveland just do like half of the other NBA teams and decide they want a new coach?

    I'm just sick of teams firing coaches, teams will never become great or even good if you do not stablity from a coach and I think that is hurting teams than helping them. Just my two cents.
