    This isn't about Toronto losing.

    It's about Lebron dominating at levels no other players have dominated ever before. He just averaged 34/11/8 on 55% in this series. He had nearly a 6:1 a:to ratio.

    It will get super interesting if they win the next one.

    nah....it's a corrupt ref with a gambling addiction....the Pete Rose of the NBA.....I deleted the post because you answered my question on an earlier page I didn't read....my point is because I'm an experienced guitarist doesn't mean non guitarists can't say something I play is wrong or sucks....you agreed with it earlier in a post I hadn't read...I explained why I deleted the post in agreement with you.

    Never use Donaghy in a conversation with someone who's doesn't have a price on his integrity...

    Kevin Calabro was on ESPN radio doing the national broadcast for the Cavs game last night.

    He's suited for radio.

    Radio play by play is much more difficult than TV play by play.

    I think that's debatable. Yes, with radio you have to describe everything, because you know the listeners can't see anything. With TV, you have to strike the right balance between explaining what's happening but not insulting the viewers' intelligence by telling them what they can clearly see. They're inarguably different skills, but I don't know if one is necessarily tougher than the other.

    Yeah, I have heard him doing a few games during the second round. Haven't heard him make any Seattle references so far...

    So apparently Rodney Hood refused to enter the Cavs game last night.
    He was told to sub in when the Cavs were up 30, but refused.
    Kind of glad he's not a Blazer.

    Donovan Mitchell with a 22 point third quarter (24 for the game) has given Utah a 3 point lead at three quarter time.

    A quality radio guy can give you a vision of what is going on in the game. The Schonz is the perfect example while the TV guy can rely on the screen to paint that same picture.

    Sounds like he won't be a Cav come next year either. That kind of attitude can find you out of the league much quicker than what will eventually happen
