Forget it was the Bobcats


"I'll live with him taking the shot at the end in every single game," said Cavs coach Mike Brown. "He will make the shot more than he'll miss it, and that's what he did [Wednesday night]."

"At the end of the game, I called a certain play," Brown said. "On [LeBron's] way out, he said, 'No, Coach. I [want the ball] and I'm going to make the shot. I'm not going to pass it."

The best part of this is how the talking heads at ESPiN, who ripped LeBron for passing the ball, now have to suck up to the Assassin.  All before they were like LBJ could not be a true dominant player until he made these types of shots- as if passing the ball out of double team to find a wide open teammate at the end of regulation was worse than taking a hotly contested three ball.  But now, everyone can witness the King's true greatness: leave him one on one, he will burn you with a winner, double or triple team him, and he will find the open teammate for the shot.  Pick your poison.

Great Win!  Was nice to see!  Can't wait to hear Mr. Barkley tonight! DJ had this to say..."[Charles Barkley's] got a TV just like I have one," said Jones, about the future Hall of Famer and TNT analyst who recently criticized James' play late in games.

"He saw what happened, and if he feels he has to continue to say that LeBron can't make plays at the end of games, that's on him. That's [Barkley's] job, to keep the criticism up. It's good for ratings."

Oh yeah, and Flip plays video games

Video master:

Cavs guard Flip Murray utilized the television screen in his locker by playing the latest video basketball game. Murray took the time to trade himself from Seattle to the Cavs, and he played a game between the Cavs and the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets.

"Playing video games helps me with the real games," Murray said. "Some of the same plays we run are displayed on the video games. When you get double teamed on here, you kick the ball to the open man.

"Defensively, if your man gets beat, you have to come over and help. Playing [video games] helps you visualize during the real games."

That's all, Go Cavs..magic number 4 to make the playoffs.
