Again...not to be a poopie....but can you read what this writer was trying to say after yesterdays game?





This was, in the truest sense, a team victory. Five double-figure scorers. Everybody in volved in the big trade playing well. "LeBron didn't shoot well in Boston, but he made some basketball plays then," Boston coach Doc Rivers said. "He did both tonight."

Not really. James has yet to have a Zorro moment, when he slashes the defense to tatters. But no one ever wrote a book about the one musketeer, anyway



What about this writers thoughts after the 2nd game?




Brown didn't say it,but when Boston double-teams James as he brings the ball past half-court, James can make a quick pass to a teammate, then cut hard to the basket to receive a return pass. The Cavs also can have someone else (West) bring up the ball and have James run some curl plays around picks near the basket to catch passes in position to score rather than the dribble . . . dribble . . . stand and dribble that seemed to stall the offense.

Could TheGardenThatDoesn'tGrow and MainCourse be the same person?


Did PG get his Mom a Stevie Hawking book for a MD present today?

I say to all ye boneheads...if the Cavs keep playing with this new found ,miracle offense ( and also beat Boston in the 5th game..which I think they will..if they do keep it)...they will win this series.

This ---even if Mr. RimClanger keeps making that sweet music.

I now issue a shall-onge to the Gardener.


If the Cavaliers keep playing a NonJamesLetMeFucl<AroundWithTheBall type offense ( as they did last night)...they will win.They will not win the series if they go back to the 1st and 2nd games "offense."


So......if I am wrong....I will leave and not return...ever. If I am right...The Gardener shall leave and not return...ever.

Now this is pretty simple stuff---it requires no revelation of anyones address nor place of work....no third parties need be involved ....and no money amount needs haggling.

So....Mr. BigShot........do ya feel lucky?

How can I give you a yes or no when we
are rooting for the same team ya buffo toad?
And what is so simple about determing what
type of offense they are playing. I could go
on with this milky bet.

And finally, what in God's name is to keep you off this board?
Oh its a gentlemens bet: I shall leave and come back as
Puffin Lauderclauken.

And finally after finally, why did you not answer
my first attempt for you to give me 100 dollars
since you said the Cavs could not win when I said
they could
? Now you switch like the tides when things
start looking good...

And in conclusion,
I want a pillgardn/mortunsus ratio as of THIS posting.

I will soon need a new head .

How many times do I have to tell you? You said Cleveland could still win ,but gave absolutely no basis for it...already having said the Celtics had better everything.So how you reached that conclusion only PoisonSumac knows.What this has to do with who anyone is rooting for...I don't even think PoisonSumac knows.



I was very precise in how Cleveland can win....they have to go to what is called on offensive scheme and not Boneheadball....which you can clear clearly discern if you saw 1 and 2 ...and then the 3rd game.If they play game 3 they win..if they go back to 1 and 2 they lose.


Take it or leave it.

By the way---if you can't spot the difference in the offense the Cavs inserted for the last game.....you are not nearly the Dr.Ramsey you purport to be.

Take it or leave it.
Mortonsus, Mortonsus.
We are practicing the art of deception.
I never said the bolded.

So if Lebron scores less than 13 points
every game you say the Cavs win the series?

Take it or leave it?
Damn it to hell.
You shoved me out to a precipice 1 inch
high. The pressure is too great.

We could disagree on the 2nd bolded every other time
down the floor.

And finally, finally, finally
your noble, but nonartitstic attempt
to replicate past bets for
obvious, but admirable reasons
is gallant. Even if it deals
with monopoly money.

What is the pillgardn/mortunsus ratio
as of THIS thread then?

Good night and have a pleasant tomorrow.

I said the second statement you put in bold!

( Is it me? )




You had said the Celtics had a better defense....a better offense.....they have Cleveland by a ratio of AT LEAST 4:1 in the creative arts.

And it's funny how everyone from fan to writer to tv commentator can see the difference in the offense........but you, the man who cut out the bottom of the peach basket, cannot.



Now I know how Hossy felt.








Debate with MainCourse...I would pay to see that one.




























No I wouldn't .

I don't have time to read through all this that I missed. THe Cavs played a good game Saturday. Today will be different I think. Will likely be a close game. All I know is when the team shoots 50 percent they usually don't just win...they usually blow people out of the gym. The problem is they often have problem reaching that mark and often have problems even reaching the 45 percent mark...or even the 40 percent mark.

The team bailed LeBron out Saturday which is possible on rare occasions...but despite another ridiculous shooting game by the "something One" he played a pretty efficient and effective overall floor game...the big difference being he decided not to turn the ball over 8 or 9 times. Even when he shoots poorly he can still be a big asset as he was Saturday...he's a really good player most times. He wasn't in game's one and two. NOthing more need be said.

I'm not going to read the rest. That's my statement on the series.
