Cleveland teams(the cavs especially right now)get no respect
Jun 05, 2007 | 3:32PM | report this

this year things just seem to be going cleveland's way. the indians are in first place ( for the moment anyway) the browns got a few good players in the draft for once. and then there's the cavs. the cavs have done somthing they have never done in 36 years of being the nba; they made it to the finals. they did what no one thought they would do, they beat the pistons and won the eastern conference finals. they became only the third team in nba history to do so.

and no one wnats to give them any credit for it at all.

in the beginning of the playoffs, everyone said the cavs would sweep the wizards and they did. but while detroit breezed buy the magic, the cavs just slipped by  wizards. then came the second round came and at least one person had the nets in 7. the cavs won 4-2. still they played sloppy or they had a horrible performance even though they won.

and then came the estern conference finals against who else but detroit. and no one gave them a chacnce in hell it was all the detroit in four, detroit in five, detroit in six or seven. some one said " the cavs are a scrub team and will get swept". some one else said "the cavs are pathetic".  and at the start of the series it seemed as though it could have been true.

bu then the cavs came back.

they beat detroit four games in a row. quite the acomplishment. as i said before only three teams ( the cavs included have done it).  the cavs beat detroit and became eastern conference champions. a first for the organization. and now they're on their way to the nba finals, also a first for the organzation.

yet still no respect.

charles barkley said after the cavs won game six and clenched the conference championship " they out played detroit every game".

so why is it so hard fpr every one else to admit this, and why would it be so hard to belive that the cavs could, i repeat could, win the nba title?

ill tell you why.

because no one wants to admit that a cleveland team is good. no one wnats to believe that the indians are in first place in the al central. or that the browns had an a grade draft. ( even though you don't really hear about it.) and no one wants to believe that the cavs are going to the nba finals and have a chance to win an nba title.

yes, they do have a chance i dont care what everybody says.

everyone wants to say that the cavs have no chance. but let me let you guys in on a little secret. one that the "unstoppable pistons" already found out:

nobody is unbeatable.

no not even the spurs, the nba's poster team.

come to think of it, dallas learned that lesson the hard way as well.

you people need to understand that the spurs arent unbeatable. that the cavs ARE NOT as much of a one man team as you think and that they DO have just as much chance as anybody, even the spurs, to win the title. now that doesnt mean that they will but they have a chance.

you people are going to have to realize that cleveland sports is on the way back to the top, wether you or the nba,nfl,and mlb like it or not. and guess what? your ging to have to DEAL WITH IT!
