Someone better hide Mikki Moore for this game.  He might not want this again:

 

 

This is just too good to not show again and again. 

By the way, Ohkeedoke News is reporting that Henry Abbott has called to say that Shannon Brown should have passed the ball to Lamar Odom.  "The basketball gods, and Tex Winter, all want Brown to hit Odom with a pass.  When people talking about making the right basketball play, that's what they're talking about."  In a game that matters, he's right.  In the regular season, against the Spurs, Brown just might do that.  Should do that.  And for those who can't detect sarcasm, I made the call up.

• Shaquille O'Neal says the Cleveland Cavaliers look great on paper - ESPN
  Even with his four NBA titles, Shaquille O'Neal says this Cleveland Cavaliers team could be better than all the rest. (Of course. Who didn't expect him to say that?  When the lose their last game of the season or if they fail to make the Finals, can we say that it was one of biggest choke jobs ever?  This is setting up lovely.)
