Two Losses... In a Row

Two of the most embarrassing games the Cavaliers have played all season, and they are back-to-back games.

First, the Cavaliers were shut down by the Washington Wizards on Thursday night. Everybody on the other team just rocked us and we gave up easy baskets. When it came time to play 4th quarter catch-up the Cavaliers just didn't have it in them and lost 101-109, Wizards. May I remind you that the Wizards are the 2nd worst team in the NBA, just barely better than the Kings? It's kind of pathetic that the Cavaliers would lose to them not only once this season, but twice. It's a slap in the face and these kind of things spark lots of crap talk about the Cavaliers.

Tonight, we faced the Orlando Magic, quickly falling behind but still within a distant that we could catch up. During the second quarter, we started to lose it big time, letting easy drives pass by their noses and giving the Magic free 3-point opportunities. I'm watching the game and I'm just like "really?"

The Cavaliers extended the opponents lead to 17 for them, and sold them even more shots in the 3rd quarter where kids with beards like Rashard Lewis knocked down some more shots deep in the court. I know this all sounds boring and repetitive, but, that's how it honestly was. Dwight Howard drove in several times and got a few dunks as well. Shots were going in as if though gravity was being manipulated-- Wally Szczerbiak was guarding some nub when the nub made a 3-pointer from the right wing... off the backboard!!! In addition it was on Wally, who was literally right in his face. You know something is wrong when people like Lebron, Mo, and Wally start getting schooled by the bench warmers.

After the Cavs helped extend the Magic's lead to 32, Lebron decided to come out of his depression and hit a few shots to close the quarter. Wally then led the bench warmers and the shower warmers out onto the floor where Wally and Gibson made a tag team to hit up 7 quick points, bringing the Magic's lead down to the lowest it had been for over 18 minutes, only a 27 point differential. Wally got sick of trying to play with people like Darnell Jackson who simply tried to show off a little and retired for the day.

The rest, my friend, is history.

Truly two shameful losses, despite the efforts made by people like Lebron (who tried to step up by taking a lot of shots) and Wally (Wally hit his shots in the Washington game and stroked one during the Magic game) . Today I received my 200th hit for this blog so thanks to everyone who bla bla...

Can't you see I'm depressed right now?

Even the Optimist is feeling a little negativity.
