As much as I hate them, they are a good team.

But, as we all remember, Jordan had to take his lumps against Detroit in the beginning, as well.

That's o.k. You guys better gloat while you have the chance. Enjoy it while it lasts. Because when the Cavs put the final pieces of The James Gang together, look out. LeBron is only 21. That means he has a good 12 years left in his carreer, and will only get better in the next 2 or 3. I can smell the string of championships which will rival the Bulls from here.

dillusional. It is gonna take longer than 3 years to get a cohesive team together, the Cavs base their entire strategy around LeBron...look how easy Detroit beat them just by makin sure to shut down LeBron and the outlet pass.

Yep, sounds like jealousy to me. No, you can't have him.

We said the same thing about the Bulls when they knocked us out in the '89 first round. At that time, the whole team was centered on Jordan. Looking back, we were just jealous, they were building something and were only 2 years away from starting their run.

I seem to remember Detroit had the #2 pick in 2003. If some balls bounced a different way, you might have had the #1 pick. And if the Pistons did they would have taken LeBron.

If you had him, I think your tune would sound a bit different.

not really, when that was going on I actually wanted us to pick him up as trade leverage...I couldnt be happier with our starting five and our deep ass bench.

dont get me wrong, he is phemonal, he just doesnt fit the team style of the stones

Being a native son of the DC area I really want to see the Wizards do well, and I've watched every game so far.

I find myself cursing at LeBron James through the tv on a regular basis, and in general just getting way too bent out of shape over these basketball games. So much so, that throughout the day I have this low-lying sense of a nicotine craving even when I don't actually have a nicotine craving.

Now that I've realized where this stress is coming from, I'm having a little more success in calming my nerves. But seriously, come on Wizards, just friggin win so I can relax already!!! :rant:
full moon too
