Cavs / Hawks home and home

You know how Melt is doing that promotion where if you get a tattoo with their logo, you get 25% off for life? I'm wondering if we can convince the Cleveland sports teams to offer discounts on tickets if we get "OIC" ink.

If you're eating there that often you're not going to live long enough to take advantage of the 25%.

ATL has a valid beef but it's not going to get anything in response from the league other than 'go eff yourself'. Otherwise if the same screwup happened with 2 minutes left in the 1st quarter instead of the 4th quarter they'd have to replay other games.

The reality is that they only lose 6-8 seconds on the clock and they had the ball over the halfcourt with about a dozen seconds left. Plenty of time to get something done.

Per Windy's Twitter, the NBA has upheld one protest in the past 26 years. Dallas (shocking, I know) has one in the pipe right now. Got to stop those David Stern witch hunts on the Mavs somehow. Isn't that right, Mr. Cuban?

Filing a protest is more a means of telling the world that you're pissed with the outcome of a game. Rarely does it effect change.

Damn if I didn't have Hervé Villechaize on my arm already I'd at least think about it.

Where's your Ricardo Montalban? Or don't I want to know?

I thought I heard that this was LeBron's 500th game. Anybody got any stats on this. I'm pretty sure he average's 27 pts. per game after 500 but he's got to have alot of assist's, rebounds, etc. thanks

thank gawd. that would have really sucked if they were forced to play the last 2 minutes or so of that game again.

can you imagine the ramifications if the cavs actually lost that game and going down the stretch to the end of the season only to finish 1 game out of the lead for the # 1 seed in the playoffs???

that being said, now if the cavs & hawks finish 1-4 respectively, they will match up again in the 2nd round just like last season. now "that" would be interesting.
