The Cleveland Cavaliers closed out their series against the Chicago Bulls last night but it wasn't without any drama. The Bulls hung in there the whole game and ended up losing only by two points. LeBron James was his usual bad-ass self with 19 points, 10 rebounds and 9 assists. But the real story here is that James appeared to have injured his right elbow and caused him to shoot free throws left-handed. He aggravated the elbow while playing the Bulls in Chicago last week. LeBron has come out to say that he will be fine with some rest and that the Cavs fans have nothing to worry about. I beg to differ. Cavs fans, you need to be worried because:
- The Boston Celtics will start a series with LeBron and his Cavs. The Celtics beat the Heat 4-1 in their opening series. If LeBron is hobbled and can't perform to his usual abilities then the Celtics will have the advantage. The C's have a better bench and a better set of role players than the Cavs. The Celtics have looked more impressive against a tougher opponent than the Cavaliers did against the lowest seed in the East.
- The Mavericks have extended their playoff hopes by defeating the Spurs last night. The series stands at 3-2 in favor of San Antonio. Look for the Spurs to boot the Mavs when they return to San Antonio.
- Kobe and his band of jerks finally looked like they wanted to play basketball again and dispatched Kevin Durant and his Thunder last night to the tune of 111-87. If the Lakers have finally woken up then look for the Thunder to play their last game in OKC this Friday.
- NFL quarterback news not concerning Ben Roethlisberger: The Oakland Raiders seem to be ready to dump franchise quarterback and #1 overall pick JeMarcus Russell. The Raiders just got former Redskins QB Jason Campbell in a trade and many felt that the release of Russell was the next step. Russell is fat, overpaid and unimproved. Monster Mash is now a happy camper.
